The new curriculum standard has led the transformation of junior high school Chinese reading teaching from "knowledge accumulation-oriented" to "literacy cultivation-oriented". Current front-line teaching generally faces problems such as superficial reading

fragmented teaching

insufficient thinking training

and separation of reading and writing. Simple word sorting

content generalization and formulaic training fail to achieve the cultivation goals of the four core Chinese literacies. Based on the dual compilation feature of "humanistic themes + Chinese elements" of unified textbooks

taking the biographical unit in the second unit of the first volume of Grade Eight as the teaching carrier and combining real classroom learning situations

this paper analyzes the drawbacks of superficial reading teaching. It constructs a practical in-depth reading teaching path for junior high school Chinese from five dimensions: unit integration

in-depth text interpretation

problem-driven teaching

learning situation optimization

and reading-writing integration

providing practical references for improving the quality and efficiency of junior high school Chinese reading teaching.
