Long sentence teaching is one of the major focuses in the course on Chinese newspaper reading. This study explores long sentence teaching methods, aiming to provide a different perspective so that teachers may have alternative teaching approaches, and to help Chinese language students overcome obstacles when encountering long sentences in Chinese newspapers. This study is a qualitative case study that adopts the secondary data collected in this study as the foundation for analysis; i.e., the long-sentence teaching methods as proposed in the existing research studies are used as the base. The textbook, Learning Chinese with Newspaper III, is the subject of this study, where the long sentences in the twelve lessons of the textbook are extracted as examples for analyzing long sentence patterns commonly seen in Chinese newspapers. The attributes of long sentences--''main predicate verbs'', ''appositives'', ''prepositional constructions'', ''when, where, who, what'', ''long attributives'', and ''the logical relationship between clauses''--are analyzed, highlighting the teaching focuses from the simple to the complicated. Thus, this study is supposed to provide concrete suggestions for dealing with long sentences, and be used as a reference in teaching the course of Chinese newspaper reading. |
