Description
From Amazon.com:
China has experienced rapid changes in the past two decades. <i>A New China</i>, written from the perspective of a foreign student who has just arrived in China, has been designed to provide up-to-date material on the changing face of China. The text compares contemporary China with its pre-reform era and emphasizes improvements in Chinese society. As in previous textbooks, <i>A New China</i> aims to provide a solid foundation in grammar and pronunciation rather than teach vocabulary geared toward specific usage. As a new feature, the textbook includes vocabulary words on the same page as the lesson text, making comprehension of new reading passages easier for students. <i>A New China</i> is appropriate for intermediate-level students and includes both traditional and simplified characters.
