This advanced-level workbook is designed to help learners systematically develop their reading, writing, and speaking skills in Japanese.
It is the advanced companion to the popular "Japanese Reading Comprehension Workbook for Upper-Intermediate Learners" (published in 2009) and is aimed at those preparing for the JLPT N1 or learners with an even higher level of proficiency.
The book focuses on 14 major fields commonly featured in the JLPT, the Examination for Japanese University Admission for International Students (EJU), and university entrance exams in Japan.
It contains 48 carefully selected reading texts covering a wide range of topics.
Each text is approximately 1000 to 1600 characters long and comes with:
Multiple-choice questions
Written response questions
Oral response questions
Oral response practice is particularly useful for university entrance exams in Japan, where applicants may be asked to read a text and then answer questions orally in an interview-style assessment.
A separate vocabulary booklet is included, featuring translations of technical terms and difficult vocabulary in English, Chinese, Korean, and Vietnamese.
This makes the book suitable both for classroom use and as a self-study resource.
