Situation Two students plan to go see a movie, play basketball (#77 @¥ 3K dalngia ) or watch a basketball game (42 #7 5RS HS kan langitisai), ete. 1. The units for measuring clock time in Chinese are: 85 (for hours) %] (for quarters on hour), 4+ (for minutes). If one wishes to indicate the exact time, then 4% (clock) is often added after #5. However, in cases where the fractional time indicated is often omitted.ex: = 3b4e 3:00 3:15 SE+D 3:50 Note that when telling time, if the unit of time is over ten minutes, then y can be omitted. ex: 285+ 3:40 BR+t 5:17 When telling time and the time unit after the hour is under ten minutes, a & (zero) or #8 (to pass) can be inserted. ex: =2S5RR 3:05 Be BEY 5:05 If only a few minutes remaining before the hour, say “ X 3 Y 85” or “Y bz X 3p” ex: £=29+8/+ £29 9:57 . When expressing the time of day in Chinese the English word “hour” can be indicated by either 4%.34 or -].#. One important difference be- tween the two is that 4% 5 must always use the measure word 48, whereas -],#} does not usually need this measure word. The reason that +]. 84 does not need 4 is because -]. ## itself can act as a measure word. Also, of these two units for “hour” in Chinese, -]\ 8% is often used in written Chinese, whereas 4% 54 is not. ex: —48) 4 3A one hour — (48) BF one hourBIR REVMMET ASA 199 B+ AKAMA TAMSA Al.

In August of this year Teacher Zhang took a trip to Europe for two weeks, visiting many famous places and thinking it was very in- teresting. He said the weather in Europe is best in the summer and that’s when the most people travel. It’s too cold in winter. Fall is nei- ther hot nor cold; however in some places it rains quite often. So spring and summer are the best times to travel in Europe. Teacher Zhang only visited Germany and France. He wished he could see other places, but there wasn’t enough time. Next year he wants to go back to Europe again. He heard that spring time is very beautiful there. » (VOCABULARY ] 1. Ae (yus) Ni month SARE RAS? Xianzai shi jiyué ? What month is it ?206 SARE AC 2.
