Qin Bitao & Guo ShaoYu 
Kaiming Newly Compiled Chinese Textbook (Volume A, Part 1) [EPUB ebook] 

This book is a monumental work by the pioneers of modern Chinese language education in China, compiled by renowned scholars such as Ye Shengtao, Guo Shaoyu, Zhou Yutong, and Tan Bitao. It is truly a ‘vibrant Chinese language classic of the 20th century.’In today’s lively discussions on middle school Chinese education, teachers, parents, and students alike should give this classic work due attention and use it to re-examine the current language education landscape.The book adopts a unique approach of teaching vernacular Chinese and classical Chinese separately, with the A version focusing exclusively on vernacular Chinese, presenting a refreshing format. The selected works emphasize literary quality and charm, guiding readers to appreciate the beauty of outstanding literature from ancient and modern times, both Chinese and foreign, while gradually grasping the basic knowledge of middle school Chinese.Even today, this book remains an exceptional and vibrant textbook. I believe that it can help broaden the horizons of young readers, especially middle school students, and inspire their interest in Chinese language learning.
