Harvest Intermediate Chinese (Second Edition) 收获（第二版) is a four-skill
intermediate Chinese program that integrates the teaching of the Chinese language
and culture. It draws students into the study of Chinese through its stimulating and
contemporary readings, authentic language use, content-based materials, engaging
and meaningful activities.
Harvest Intermediate Chinese (Second Edition) 收获（第二版)is compiled from
selected works of Jia You! Volumes 1 and 2. Designed to be covered in one academic
year, Harvest offers 6 units or 12 chapters covering a wide variety of cultural topics
- School, Family, Food, Sports, Festivals, Customs, Travel, Society, Famous People,
History, Literature and Arts. Ideal for AP* Chinese or equivalent intermediate-level
courses, the 2nd edition Harvest textbook offers full-color layouts with updated
content. The Harvest textbook is offered in Simplified Characters and paperback
edition only.
The Harvest Workbook offers 12 sets of simulated tests modeled after the AP Chinese
exam format. Each simulated test follows the chapter theme and tests students on their
reading, writing, listening and speaking skills, as well as their cultural knowledge. The
2nd edition Workbook does not include audio CDs. Instead, students can get instant
access to the audio program from the all-new Harvest Book Companion Website
(http://harvest2e.cengageasia.com). Students may play the audio files online or take
the MP3 files with them to listen on-the-go. Instructors can register to gain FREE
access to the audio program and supplementary instructor resources which include
teaching tips, expanded notes, supplementary cultural information, and answer keys
to exercises in both the Textbook and Workbook.
