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 compilation. This 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 grammar points for the beginner and intermediate levels of Chinese language teaching for foreigners. The vocabulary is suitable for daily communication and examination (beginner and intermediate levels). The exercises are rich and diverse, with formats similar to the HSK. Each lesson includes the following special columns:
Pinyin Text – Compared with the Hanzi text, it facilitates learners in review and self-study.
Word Collocations and Expansion – Provides common word collocations, enabling learners to apply knowledge in various contexts without the need to consult a dictionary.
Explanation of Key and Difficult Points – Presents grammar rules in a formatted manner, making them easy to understand, remember, and look up.
The last two columns can be used by learners and teachers as supplementary materials for each lesson, or they can be reviewed at a later stage 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.
