Description
The New Century Chinese advanced series comprises two volumes (Book 1 and Book 2), aligned with Levels 7–9 of the Chinese Proficiency Grading Standards for International Chinese Language Education. Each volume consists of six lessons. In selecting content, the textbooks follow the Framework of Reference for Chinese Culture and Society in International Chinese Language Education published by the Center for Language Education and Cooperation of the Ministry of Education. They comprehensively cover three major cultural categories: social life, traditional culture, and contemporary China, providing learners with a well-rounded understanding of Chinese culture and national conditions. As a professional textbook for international Chinese language education, it strictly adheres to the four-dimensional benchmarks and quantitative indicators outlined in the Chinese Proficiency Grading Standards for International Chinese Language Education. The series implements the new standards across four key dimensions—syllables, Chinese characters, vocabulary, and grammar—helping learners efficiently improve their Chinese proficiency.
