This textbook is designed based on topics, each including warm-up activities, teaching objectives, texts, new words, cultural notes, exercises, and oral expressions. The textbook involves 17 hot topics in contemporary China, such as “high-speed rail”, “employment attitudes”, and “mobile phone culture”, etc., all of which correspond to the background of the times, so they can arouse wide discussions and make students come up things to say; the new words include Pinyin, notes and typical example sentences, which take full consideration of students’ vocabulary learned. The cultural notes, which are designed after the new words, observe the principle of combining language teaching with cultural teaching; the exercises check how well students learned the texts; and the oral expressions include discussions, speeches and debates, all of which are closely related to the texts, aiming to improve students’ oral expression ability.
This textbook pays attention to the cultivation and practice of students’ reading modes, but without neglecting improving students’ oral expression abilities. Therefore, it is a new endeavor and exploration in integrating Chinese language input with its output.

尔雅中文：当代中国话题
本教材以话题为线索编排，每个话题一般包括热身活动与教学目标、课文、生词与文化点注释、练习、口语表达等板块。课文涉及当今中国的17个热门话题，如“高铁”“就业观念”“手机文化”等，这些话题也比较契合当下的时代背景，能够广泛引起讨论，因此学生学习时能有话可说；生词包括拼音、注释和典型例句，充分考虑了学习者的词汇量储备，生词后并配有专门的文化点注释，体现了语言教学和文化教学相结合的原则；练习部分主要检查学习者对课文的掌握情况；口语表达包括讨论、演讲和辩论三种方式，并且与课文内容紧密相关，旨在培养学习者高层次的口语表达能力。
本教材既重视学习者阅读方式的培养和锻炼，也注重口语表达能力的建立，是在融汉语的输入与输出为一体方面进行的新尝试与新探索。
