Continuing Mandarin Chinese is a new intermediate-level course in Mandarin Chinese by one of the most experienced language teachers in the field. The 24 lessons in this book are carefully designed to provide 3 hours per week of class instruction over one academic year. However, the books can also be used by self-study learners due to the extensive explanations and free online supplementary materials - including audio and video recordings, fl ash cards and additional readings and exercises.
Each lesson opens with a dialogue and includes a list of new and supplementary vocabulary along with questions and grammar notes about the dialogue, a reading section, and extensive exercises that can be found in the accompanying Continuing Mandarin Chinese Workbook.
Continuing Mandarin Chinese offers many advantages over other textbooks:
It features Colloquial everyday dialogues set in China and other Chinese-speaking regions for extensive listening and speaking practice
Chinese grammar is explained in simple, non-technical terms with useful notes and tips
Reading exercises are provided for all new words and phrases in every lesson
Free online audio recordings by native speakers from various parts of China help you not only to acquire good pronunciation but also to understand Chinese speakers with different accents
illustrations, photos and supplementary video clips add cultural authenticity
A Chinese-English dictionary is provided for easy reference
