NEW PRACTICAL CHINESE READER 4 WORKBOOK

Description Since the publication of New Practical Chinese Reader in 2002, it has been well-received by teachers and learners. For users’ convenience, in this new edition we have revised those points we found improper. In contrast to its first edition, the notes of the texts are designed next to each text to facilitate students. We have not revised the framework, especially the texts and the main language points of the textbook. Users can visit www.blcup.com/resource.blcup.com and download the traditional Chinese version of the texts for free. All the reading materials and illustrations in the workbook are updated. This is the second edition of the Workbook 4, which corresponds to Textbook 4. Each lesson is divided into two parts: 1. Listening and speaking exercises; 2. Reading and writing exercises. Readers are exposed to genuine Chinese materials to improve their integrated skills in listening, speaking, reading and writing. A CD of MP3 file is attached to the book, providing the recording of the listening exercises.
