Advanced Chinese II

1 Course Unit

This is an advanced-level Chinese language course aiming to enhance students’ Chinese language skills and cultural literacy in order to communicate with their contemporary Chinese peers. Students learn to master more advanced-level vocabulary, structures and expressions through topics such as social changes in education and marriage, traditional food culture, Confucius and his philosophy, and geopolitics. With a manageable workload, students will consolidate their interpretive and presentation skills in Chinese at the advanced level. By the end of the semester, students are expected to be able to read and summarize materials written or produced mainly for native speakers in order to conduct college level research and deliver presentations in the target language for academic or professional purposes.
