A sequel to Beginning Chinese Reader and Intermediate Chinese
Reader, this text, the eleventh in a series produced under the
auspices of Seton Hall University, is closely correlated with the
author's Advanced Chinese and Character Text for Advanced Chinese.
It contains 400 new characters, some 3,000 compounds, and about
20,000 characters of running text. All compounds appear in
illustrative sentences and in narrative or expository materials,
including adaptations of articles and stories by Chinese authors.
Supplementary lessons present reading material using the simplified
characters adopted in mainland China. A stroke-order chart is
provided for characters that students might find difficult to
write. In addition to a pinyin index, there are three summary
charts in which the characters are arranged by lesson, by number of
strokes, and by radical. A fourth chart contrasts regular and
simplified characters; a fifth chart shows the differences between
two typefaces; and a sixth chart presents variant forms of the same
character. This series has been supported by contract with the
United States Office of Education.Mr. DeFrancis is professor of
Chinese at the University of Hawaii.
