Description: The course is designed on the basis of linguistic skills acquired in the previous five semesters of Chinese study to further train students in advanced use of the language, including conversation, speaking, reading, writing and translation. The topics of the lessons cover the social changes in contemporary China and cultural developments in its social context. Grades are based on both the level of achievement and the progress made during the course. Course Requirements: Attendance in class will affect your grade, but more importantly failure to attend class will seriously impair your ability to learn Chinese. Every five unexcused absences will result in a five percent deduction of the final course grade. Participation in class discussion is important and will affect your overall grade. The vocabulary, grammar as well as the content in the assigned text will be discussed during the lecture. You will be expected to read through the text and the grammar notes before coming to class. You will be asked questions related to what you are supposed to prepare. In order to be well prepared for the next class meeting and fully participate in discussion, you should do the following before the class: --Read the assigned text, including understanding grammar notes and examples, and learning new vocabulary; --Read the text aloud; --Practice writing new characters and phrases; --Generate at least one question about the text for discussion in class. Homework assignments (including written exercises and compositions) should be handed in at the beginning of class. Late homework assignments will NOT be accepted unless mitigating circumstances are declared. There will be extensive reading, writing and other assignments. Prepare the assigned lessons and materials before each class. If there are audiocassettes for the assigned materials, you should go to the LRC to listen to them before class. There will be shishi baogao 時事報告 in class. Students are required to read one essay of news in Chinese newspapers or websites in association with the topic theme of the book chapter and then report them in class. There will be kouyu lianxi 口语练习 in class. Students are asked to present a Chinese story, Page 1 of 7
