The long-awaited revised edition of the popular Practical Chinese Reader series are finally available both in Textbook and Audio CDs! New Practical Chinese Reader is a series of Chinese textbooks compiled at the beginning of the new millennium for the purpose of teaching Chinese to native English speakers or those who use English as their principal second language. It aims to develop the learner's communicative ability in Chinese by learning language structures, functions and related cultural knowledge as well as by training their listening, speaking, reading and writing skills. The first four volumes, consisting of fifty lessons, are for beginners and pre-intermediate level learners. This set of textbooks is designed for overseas students who either take Chinese as an elective or major in the language for a period of three years, studying about one lesson a week, or one volume a semester. It can also be used by autonomous learners.

New Practical Chinese Reader Textbook 1 contains 14 lessons as follows.
