Applying for a China tourist visa as an American living in India

I am an American with a USA passport, living in India for 2 years. I hold a resident permit for India. For a China tourist visa I have to complete application form V. 2011A and 2011B (section D). In addition to providing my passport, do I also need to include a copy of my resident permit, or submit my original resident permit, or just the visa application forms?
