5.0 out of 5 stars Good Textbook, October 26, 2010
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: A New China (Two Vol. Set) (Paperback)
I used this book in my intermediate Chinese class at Cornell University. It provides stories and conversations as context for the vocabulary, and the vocabulary is pretty up-to-date and useful. The pair of books help you work through grammar methodically. I don't know if I would use this book for independent study, but I am using it now (three years later) to brush up on my vocabulary. The book does emphasize simplified characters, but all segments of text in the vocabulary book (not the grammar book) are also provided in traditional characters.

4.0 out of 5 stars Chinese language study, March 19, 2006
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: A New China (Two Vol. Set) (Paperback)
This book has no "frills" with it. It is simply short readings in Chinese that have helpful vocabulary. I would not recommend it without a class or teacher but with a good teacher it is a very useful book.
