This book is an advanced Chinese textbook. The main difference between it and ordinary Chinese textbooks is that the content of the textbook is limited to the scope of Chinese law, but it does not teach systematic legal knowledge, but general legal knowledge. The purpose is to further improve Chinese proficiency through the study of legal materials, accumulate professional vocabulary, and complete the transition from language learning to professional learning.
