Finally, we study the shortcomings on systematicness and fitness in terms of language teaching grammars setting in textbooks. All of these researches provide a reference for future scheduling Foreign Language Textbook Series grammars. The paper consists of six parts:Chapter One is Introduction. The main content of this part is to discuss practical significance of the topic, indicating research framework and methodology of the study.
