It is geared for college students and adults, so each chapter is fairly challenging and includes scenarios such as meeting your professor, going to a party with friends (and buying some wine for the party), etc. My background (relevant because you may have a different experience depending on your existing ability to speak or hear Chinese): I am not ethnically Chinese, and so never lived in a household where Chinese was spoken, although 15 years ago I did take several semesters of Chinese at a midwestern university. I am learning a lot from this book and its companion Workbook. I have put the CD tracks for both books into my iTunes library and play it as "music" in my car and when I am working around the house. They are very useful for hearing/speaking. I do like that there is also an emphasis on reading/writing. It seems to me that a lot of teaching these days is done just so people can speak/hear. Years ago I thought that was what I wanted, but I find a real satisfaction in the writing. Not that my writing is beautiful- far from it. But there is some little dopamine hit when you do all the strokes in the right order. And also it feels great to be able to read a whole paragraph of what would have looked like gibberish only a few months before. Downsides: Sometimes the instruction for writing does not tell you how to write the characters that are in the chapter. So I googled a web page that gives me the stroke order for any character. And sometimes they show you how to write a character that is not in the chapter. Strange. Not sure of why that is. But overall, the learning builds nicely and you gradually get good expertise. I have just ordered the second book in the series. Can't wait to get to it. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The books are great but who has a CD player any more? *by K***N on July 8, 2021* The books are of really good quality. There is a lot of information in there and they are easy to use. My only complaint is that it's 2021 and they don't even make CD players anymore lol. We have about 15 different computers/laptops in the house and none of them play CDs. I literally had to buy a separate device to be able to use them. I still give the product 5 stars because they are trying to serve the most people possible. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Mysterious handwriting *by C***. on April 18, 2025* This whole book is great for really getting the basically of Chinese down. One down side I found when skimming through this book is that I found hand writing on it that I never wrote(I bought it new) Not sure if this is an accident, I don’t mind at all. Other then that amazing book highly recommend. ## Frequently Bought Together - New Practical Chinese Reader Vol. 1 (2nd.Ed.): Textbook (SCAN QR CODE) (English and Chinese Edition) - New Practical Chinese Reader, Vol. 1: Workbook (W/MP3), 2nd Edition (English and Mandarin Chinese Edition) - New Practical Chinese Reader, Vol. 2 (2nd Ed.): Textbook (with MP3 CD or QR Scan) (English and Chinese Edition) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.com.sa/products/8520314-new-practical-chinese-reader-vol-1-2nd-ed-textbook-scan](https://www.desertcart.com.sa/products/8520314-new-practical-chinese-reader-vol-1-2nd-ed-textbook-scan) --- *Product available on Desertcart Saudi Arabia* *Store origin: SA* *Last updated: 2026-04-22*
