Features: HSK is the abbreviation of "Chinese Language Proficiency Test," which is an authoritative exam to measure the Chinese proficiency of non-native speakers (including foreigners, overseas Chinese, etc.). It is a world-wide, national-level, standardized test. With China's increasing global status, Chinese has gradually become a dominant language in the world today. Learning Chinese and understanding China has become a global trend. Along with this trend, the influence of the HSK exam has been growing day by day, with an increasing number of participants. It can be asserted that, given time, HSK will inevitably become an authoritative exam with the same widespread influence as TOEFL and IELTS. This book aims to help candidates preparing for the HSK exam by focusing on the analysis and summarization of the exam content and format. It is suitable for Chinese learners with elementary and intermediate proficiency, i.e., those who have received formal education in modern Chinese for 400–2000 hours (including those with equivalent qualifications). For candidates aspiring to obtain HSK junior and intermediate certificates, this book can serve as an effective self-study tool for preparing and reviewing for the junior and intermediate HSK exams.
