美国大学Chinese课不一定就是“中文”课,也有文化、文学等用英文开设的课程。例如CHIN102可以是初级汉语课的编号,但是CHIN421就是Current Affairs in China.这种课全部用英文开设。中国学生选修未必能轻松得A.也见到过中国来的学生去修CHIN101,但是学校可能明确规定汉语是母语这不可以选修初级或中级语言课。
Help my friend with his Chinese class essay: Caligraphy and Martial Arts. After it is done, suddenly realize why would we use English to write the essay. Think about it, in English class in China, did you write your homework in Chinese? No wonder the author said there is no advantage.
