Online Materials for Integrated Chinese (Second Year)

The files with sounds are in MS Word (.doc) format, chosen for the ability to embed sound clips easily. They can be opened online (but downloading them first onto your computer may make them faster/easier to use).

English translations are done by Zheng-sheng Zhang.  If you see a mistake or a typo in any of the files, I would greatly appreciate it if you let me know right away!
