Course Description | Prerequisites: One (1) year of college-level Chinese or the equivalent Texts: Experiencing China As the first half of a one-year program for intermediate Chinese learners, this course helps students consolidate and develop language skills used in everyday communication.Texts are presented in the form of dialogues and narratives that provide language situations, sentence patterns, word usage, and cultural information.This course will enable students to conduct everyday tasks such as shopping for cell phone plans, opening a bank account, seeing a doctor, or renting a place to live. At the end of the course, students will be ready to move on to the second half of the program, which focuses on aspects of Chinese culture such as the social norms of politeness and gift-giving. Semi-formal and literary styles will also be introduced as students transition to more advanced levels of Chinese language study. While providing practical training, Second Year Chinese aims to improve the student's linguistic competence in preparation for advanced studies in Mandarin. |
