Features: Contemporary Standard Chinese is written by experienced senior teachers from the International Education College of Tianjin University, who have rich experience in teaching and textbook writing. The book is divided into two volumes, with 20 lessons in each volume. The lesson content is sourced from contemporary Chinese social life, vivid and practical, covering all important grammatical points for the beginner and intermediate levels of Chinese language teaching for foreign learners. The vocabulary is suitable for daily communication and exam preparation (beginner and intermediate levels). The exercises are rich and diverse, with formats similar to the HSK. Each lesson includes the following special sections:
Pinyin Text – Compared with the Hanzi text, it facilitates review and self-study for learners.
Word Collocations and Expansion – Provides common word collocations, enabling learners to apply knowledge flexibly and avoid the need to consult a dictionary.
Explanation of Key and Difficult Points – Presents grammatical rules in a formatted manner, making them easy to understand, remember, and look up.
The last two sections can be used by learners and teachers as supplementary materials for each lesson, or they can be reviewed later for comprehensive learning. They serve as alternatives to learning notes and also hold reference value. Compiled together, they form a concise and practical handbook of Chinese grammar. This book can be used as a textbook or for self-study.
