Reading to Write: A Textbook of Advanced Chinese

<p>Traditionally reading and writing are believed to be separate but related language processes and teachers follow the conventional wisdom of teaching in-depth reading with writing as a tag-on issue. </p><p>Therefore there exists an increasingly urgent call for a well-rounded reading-writing curriculum and a theoretically-informed empirically-based student-centered advanced textbook that aims to develop the synergy between reading and writing. <i>Reading to Write: A Textbook of Advanced Chinese </i>is intended to fill this significant gap. It treats reading and writing as integrative parts and interactive skills in Chinese language teaching putting them hand-in-hand supplementing each other.</p>
