Prerequisite: instructor's consent; credit will NOT be granted if credit received for: 1011 or 1012;, 5 cr Instructor: Stone, Jin This course is designed for heritage speakers of Chinese and for students who have the basic skill of speaking Chinese. The course will focus on standard pronunciation, reading, and writing, and spend less time on grammatical explanation. The lectures cover Chinese characters and sentence structures. In the drill session, we will practice the skills of listening comprehension, speaking, reading, and writing. Since this is an accelerated course, we will cover the whole of first-year Chinese within one semester, and the pace of the course will be approximately one lesson every two days. By the end of the semester, students should be able to make fluent conversations in Chinese, recognize 600 Chinese characters, write 500 of them, and read texts that are clear and straightforward.
