Synopsis

Across the Straits is a powerful program for intermediate to advanced students of Chinese specifically designed to hone listening comprehension skills and encourage discussion in Chinese. It includes students' books in traditional or simplified characters, three cassettes totaling 160 minutes of material, and transcripts of the audio portion. The recordings are unscripted conversations between a speaker from Taiwan and one from mainland China, focusing on social and cultural issues in the two regions and in the U.S. Pre-listening activities prepare students for what they are about to hear with vocabulary and background, and post-listening activities integrate listening skills with speaking and writing.
