No, there is no separate writing section in HSK Level 2. The exam focuses on listening and reading comprehension skills, with a total of 60 questions divided into these two parts.
However, the reading section does include basic writing-related tasks, such as matching words with pictures, selecting appropriate words to fill in blanks, and judging the consistency of sentences. These tasks indirectly assess a candidate’s ability to recognize and understand Chinese characters, which is a fundamental aspect of writing in Chinese.
For candidates aiming to improve their writing skills, it is recommended to practice writing simple Chinese characters and sentences during exam preparation. This can be done by using vocabulary cards to memorize character strokes, copying commonly used characters in a grid notebook, and constructing simple sentences using the grammar patterns learned.
