Students are able to read, view and translate a variety of authentic Chinese text such as news (both television and newspaper), business letters, advertisements and literature; develop specialist vocabularies in areas they are interested in such as politics, media or global issues; and conduct basic consultation in Chinese related to the area they are familiar with. |

The unit is of particular interest to students who would like to become proficient readers and writers of Chinese. |

Supplementary assessment is not available in this unit except in the case of a bachelor's pass degree student who has obtained a mark of 45 to 49 and is currently enrolled in this unit, and it is the only remaining unit that the student must pass in order to complete their course. |
