Book Description
This valuable book is part of a series is designed to supplement the Practical Chinese Reader, one of the most widely used elementary Chinese textbook series at the high school and college levels. The three companions (A, B, and C) correspond to the material introduced in Books 1 and 2 of the Practical Chinese Reader. Each book is divided into three sections. Lecture notes clarify grammar points omitted in the primary text. Situational dialogues--such as making phone calls, asking for directions, etc.--introduce more contemporary vocabulary and useful expressions. Perforated homework pages contain additional exercises. There are also three useful appendices: Appendix A contains the texts in traditional characters. Appendix B contains a key to exercises in lessons 21-35 of the Practical Chinese Reader.
