This intermediate-level book is based on the old edition of the same title (ISBN: 7800525538), but overhauled completely. The expressions in this book now center around face, one of the most important cultural phenomenon in China. The book is divided into four parts: saving your own face, giving other people face, failing to retain your own face, and denying other people face.

Each phrase is analyzed from two angles: language sequences and language contexts. The content of the book includes phrases, conversations, contexts, ancient language usages, and similar phrases.
