TitleChinese Webcasts
Body
From http://www.nclrc.org/webcasts/chinese/index.html

The News in Simplified Chinese is posted to the web twice monthly and delivers a survey of the previous two weeks' news in Mandarin. NCLRC’s webcasts serve as a stepping stone between the teacher talk of the classroom and the "real" Chinese of the media.

The news itself is taken from a number of Chinese-language sites, Sina, Nanfang Zhoumo, and others. The editorial "slant" is left unchanged and should not be taken to represent the views of the NCLRC.

The accompanying exercises include pre-listening background information, vocabulary support, and post-listening activities. The exercises are written in the multiple-choice or fill-in formats. Listeners can check their answers with a mouse click.

The news items, style, and exercise level are aimed at students with listening skills at ACTFL Intermediate-mid to Intermediate-high. In most cases, this corresponds to college Chinese at the end of second-year.
