This course is for students who have completed Chinese 102 and wish to continue to develop their speaking, listening, reading, and writing skills. The basic structures and patterns of beginning Chinese will be reinforced, but complexity and variation will be introduced into structures as students are exposed to more idiomatic uses and learn a greater variety of particles and function words. Students continue to interact with language in authentic contexts, but the contexts expand beyond the situations of everyday survival to allow students to engage in conversations that facilitate the practice of various conversational strategies, such as expressing opinions, making concessions, offering detailed descriptions, and indicating doubts. The course will continue to introduce students to the history and culture of China, especially those aspects that will help students understand, reflect on, and adjust to norms, values, and customs when living or working in China.
