Story
From kung-fu to tofu, tea to trade routes, sages to silk, China has influenced cuisine, commerce, military strategy, aesthetics, and philosophy across the world for thousands of years. Chinese history is nothing if not messy. Heroes are also villains; prosperity mingles with violence; cultural vibrancy coexists with censorship and repression. Modern China is seen variously as an economic powerhouse, an icon of urbanization, a propaganda state, and an aggressive superpower seeking world domination.

The Italian language is wonderful, so rich in nuances and expressiveness. It is the language of love: a sweet language, which cuddles word after word, without ever becoming authoritarian, but always turning to the heart. It is the language often used in the world of art, theatrical work and literature: a language of pleasure and passion, which expresses, word after word, moods and emotions. A language that gives happiness.

Story
These memoirs of the author's first twenty-four years are thoughtful, informative, and highly entertaining. They not only portray a young woman and her unique family in San Francisco's Chinatown, but they are rich in the details that light up a world within the world of America. The third-person singular style is rooted in Chinese literary form, reflecting cultural disregard for the individual, yet Jade Snow Wong's story also is typically American.

There are 168 hours in a week. This book is about where the time really goes, and how we can all use it better. It's an unquestioned truth of modern life: we are starved for time. With the rise of two-income families, extreme jobs, and 24/7 connectivity, life is so frenzied we can barely find time to breathe. We tell ourselves we'd like to read more, get to the gym regularly, try new hobbies, and accomplish all kinds of goals.

Publisher's summary
So, you are learning Mandarin Chinese, but just cant find the ideal listening material?
Good news—we have got you covered. Many students of Mandarin Chinese constantly find a massive obstacle when trying to develop their reading skills—a total lack of high-quality material. This can not only make the learning processes tougher, but also force the student to lose interest. This is why we have created a sequel to our highly successful previous short stories book with Chinese Short Stories for Beginners, Volume 2. We want to continue helping students build their Chinese connection with 1.2 billion Mandarin speakers worldwide! 20 easy-to-understand, entertaining, and interesting stories await inside, along with the best tools to help you practice once you are done listening to each tale.
Our book will ensure you not only can read something that will expand your knowledge on Mandarin Chinese, but that you will understand and be able to pick it apart, piece by piece in your quest for learning.
How Chinese Short Stories for Beginners, Volume 2 works: Each of the books has 20 chapters and will use a story filled with day-to-day terms, useful Mandarin Chinese language tools, and entertaining storylines to help you expand your knowledge of the Chinese culture. Using Chinese characters, Pinyin romanization, and an English translation in each chapter, you will develop a fluent understanding of Chinese writing!
A summary synopsis in Chinese, Pinyin, and in English of what you just listened to, both to review the lesson and for you to see if you understood the story. At the end of those summaries, you will be provided with a list of the most relevant vocabulary involved in the lesson, as well as slang and sayings that you may not have caught at first glance! Finally, you will be provided with a set of tricky questions in Chinese, providing you with the chance to prove that you learned something in the story.
Do not worry if you do not know the answer to any we will provide them immediately after, but no cheating! Do you think you can handle it? If the answer is yes, then you are definitely on your way to becoming a fluent Mandarin Chinese speaker, and we will certainly make your dreams come true! So look no further! Pick up your copy of Chinese Short Stories for Beginners, Volume 2, and start learning Chinese right now!
