Eating the Dragon: A Study Guide to Hsk and Supplemental Chinese Vocabulary, Volume 1 (Elementary and Intermediate)

The Eating the Dragon series combines the Hanyu Shuiping Kaoshi (HSK) word lists with a modern supplemental vocabulary, expands individual characters not in the HSK lists, and presents it all in frequency order according to an extensive corpus of modern informational Chinese. Picking up where other frequency-based approaches leave off, this volume presents readers with a progressive approach to acquiring new vocabulary in which each lesson builds upon characters learned in previous lessons. Supplemental vocabulary has been selected to be appropriate to the level of each lesson as well.
