The French textbooks I have read include New College French (four volumes in total), New French (after reading a little, I won't talk about it), Concise French Course (the first volume) and Concise College French Course (just one) by Xue.

We studied New College French (all four volumes). This set of books is a bit difficult. It is the designated teaching material of college French as a second foreign language, and it is also the designated teaching material of CET-4. The main reason is that there are many words in the text, the articles are long, and there are certain difficulties, and some similar grammar points are scattered in three books, one east and one west, which is not suitable for self-study.

I think the advantage of Xue's Concise Course of College French is that it is a condensed essence, because the grammar points contained in the four volumes of New College French are all completed in one book, and each text is worth careful scrutiny and even memorization. Although the text is short, it involves a lot.

Sun Hui's concise French course is the first and second volumes. The advantage of this book is that everything from phonetics knowledge to grammar is very detailed, and there are many exercises to be consolidated at the end of each lesson. The vocabulary is not small and the vocabulary is more scientific.

In fact, the grammar knowledge of these books is basically the same, and the content is compiled according to the outline after all.

In terms of vocabulary, the new university has the most French.

In a word, I think Concise French Course (Sun Hui Commercial Press) is better than Concise College French Course and New College French.

PS。 These two titles are so tangled ... they look so alike.
