Features: This workbook is designed to accompany Themenaktuell Kursbuch 3, the student book of the New Standard German Intensive Course. Its key feature is highlighting important sentence patterns and usage in each lesson, with all exercises tailored to the learning steps in the student book. At the beginning of each lesson is a summary of new or recurring key vocabulary, sentence patterns, and grammar points from the text. The glossary also includes words that appeared in Themenaktuell Student Book 2 and are repeated in this workbook. In the section on important sentence patterns, the authors have selected key expressions needed for oral exams or similar situations. These summaries are helpful for teachers in instruction and allow learners to check their progress by reviewing them after studying the text: whether they have mastered the vocabulary and grammar points. The numbers next to each item indicate the page number in Student Book 3 where the content appears. The authors of this workbook do not advocate rote memorization of the summaries; learners should use the exercises in the workbook for effective learning. Most exercises in this workbook come with answers to facilitate self-study and self-assessment. It is recommended that learners use this workbook in conjunction with the student book and consult a German-German or German-Chinese dictionary based on their German proficiency to effectively master vocabulary. Exercises in this workbook should first be explained by the teacher in class. Depending on individual learners' progress, some exercises can also be assigned as homework.
