Nor just came back to Beijing from Xi’an”. “JK+NP” forms a prepositional phrase that precedes the verb, indicating the starting point of an action. The object of the preposition “)K” is usually a word or a phrase denoting location or time (see Lesson 16). For example: PAF BK PA, WAKA AYP Bl. In order to function as the object of “JA”, a noun or a pronoun that doesn’t denote location must be followed by “iX JL” or “H6JL”, thus completing the prepositional phrase which modifies the verb. For example: PEAK AT RAB IL Ro PO Gft ABIL AR? Bi AE YR AAR EIU K ARAT @ (RABEL, “The food (I had) was passable.” “ny LA” is used as an adjective here, meaning “good, not bad”. “i&FJ LA” means “passable; just so-so”. For example: URARBBATY, ABE BF RSME ATV, @ BERT. “Look, it’s your turn now.” “jZ+NP+(V)+ 7” means “it’s somebody’s turn (to do something)”. For example: -7- EMERLAT. ® peop, 5 “Good morning, Lin Na.” “fi!” is another expression commonly employed by Chinese people as a greeting. It is usually used to say hello to someone in the morning. The common reply to it is also “54! ” For example: —4 IRF! ARAN | @ RAV WATE” “I know how to say ‘I don’t understand.” In the Shanghai dialect, the expression “Bi[ fii {if” means “I don’t understand.” In this dialect, “¥” can be pronounced “faJfz”({APIA]), whereas “A” is pronounced “4J” ([va?]) aed i © RE LM RATE “This means ‘I don’t understand’ in the Shanghai dialect.” “Ht” (1) has the function of emphasis. It is used to either confirm a fact, or stress that “this is exactly what the fact is”. For example; BRAM.

This is called the complement. Among the various forms of complements, the one that describes or comments on the achieved state of an action is called the complement of state. It is usually formed by an adjective or an adjectival phrase. The structural particle “##” must be placed between the verb and the complement of state. To create the negative form, “4X” should be put before the complement of state. V+ 4% + Adv + A aR ea 4k F 4E em AR F The V/A-not-V/A question form is constructed by juxtaposing the affirmative form of the complement with its negative form. V+ #& + A + AA GIL FF 4G AHF? BR fF Kk ARK? In this kind of sentence, if there is an object following the verb, the verb needs to be reduplicated and then placed after the object, but before “7”. The first verb is often omitted. _14_ (V) + 0+ V4 4% + Adv + A — Subject | ~~] can - (Vv); Oo v | | Ady A Particle te x |& | aw |e, He | EB tt | a5 ? sbi aR BRI? HeAN] (Gt) |ihis [3 cea SZ AHED em (Go |e la lw lm, | Notes; (1) A complement formed by an adjective is usually preceded by “7”. This is similar to the case in which the adjective is used as a predicate. For example; “SR (E4R5L" , “BEARER” (2) The focus of a sentence containing a complement of state is centered on the complement. Therefore, both its question form and related answer form are usually made from variations on the complement. Its negative form is made by negating the complement rather than by placing “7X” before the verb. Hence, it is incorrect to say ©" “HAMEL. ” (3) In this kind of sentence, the elliptical form can be used to answer a ques— tion. For example; Question Answer MERGE HATA? RRB MPR AAI BUPRRAI RRA 2. BH“T” Q: PESTER Particle “7” @; Confirming the completion or realization of something In Lesson 13, we learned that the particle “” D can follow a verb to denote the completion or realization of an action. In this lesson, we see that “7” @ always appears at the end of a sentence. It emphatically confirms the completion or realization of some event or situation. Compare the sentences in groups A and B; [1] Incorrect sentences are marked by @ in this book. -16- A B MA ABIL? MAMULT 2 Where are you going? Where have you been? Or Where did you go? RAHA. BREWUAT. I am going to the shopping mall. T’ve been to the shopping mall. Or I went to the shopping mall. MEA? MEAT? What are you going to buy? What have you bought? Or What did you buy? RE FUR RERIRT 6 I am going to buy some clothes. I’ve bought some clothes. Or I bought some clothes. In group A, “2 73H” and “3SLAAR™ are not completed actions in the past. In group B, however, these two actions are definitely completed or realized. To negate a sentence with the particle “{” @), place the adverb “}%( 4)” rather than “7X” before the verb, and omit “” from the end of the sentence. To form a V/A-not-V/A question, juxtapose the affirmative form of the verb with its negative ( “+--}%---” ), or add “+. [Y#4” to the end of an affirmative sentence.

Notes; (1) When present, the particle “/” @) always indicates that actions or events have taken place in the past. However, it is not true that “f” @ is always required to express past events. To narrate a past event (especially several events taking place consecutively ) or to describe a scene at a specific moment, without -17- confirming the realization of the action, we can leave out “J”. For example; EMAWLFLA LY, FFLAmM—-ARS, (2) If “J” simultaneously follows the verb and stands at the end of the sentence, it then performs both functions mentioned above. For example; WET “TT.” expresses the completion and realization RNET . of the action and confirms the completion or realization of some event or situation. MA RERT 3. Syis/AY HH Reduplication of the verb In Chinese, verbs can be reduplicated. The form for reduplicated monosyllabic verbs is “AA” or “A—A”. However, the form for reduplicated bisyllabic verbs is “ABAB” , and “—” cannot be added between the two syllables of bisyllabic verbs. For example; @#@, wtilt, F—E, Fl, 3, SMA, BURY, ete. Reduplicating a verb has the function of implying a short duration for that action or the idea of giving something a try.

DF HV7I3E(1) Methods of constructing Chinese characters (1) When constructing Chinese characters, certain rules are followed in the combination of sound, structure and meaning. Though the forms of modern characters are frequently very different from these ancient ones, Chinese characters still maintain the characteristics of a logographic writing system. Therefore, understanding the process by which Chinese characters are formed will facilitate learning them. Pictographic method (4&J%}&K): This method of construction depicts either the whole image or the partial characteristic of an object. It is the original method of forming characters. a. Depicting the whole image of the object. For example: A, KALE BS FR KARR ALTIALOALH LS, FILL La REAP RSS. b. Depicting a characteristic of the object. For example: LEER. ce. Depicting both the object and other associated things. For example: RK,G,W. In antiquity, these single-component characters, which we have already learned, were originally pictographic. Nowadays, they are no longer very pictographic but are similar to codes. However, when they are used as the basic components for multi- component characters, the fact that they maintain either their original sounds or meanings certainly helps our understanding of the latter. 2.

Back in the 11th century BC, King Wu of the Western Zhou Dynasty established his capital, named Haojing, where Xi’an is currently located. After that, the Qin Dynasty ( 221 BC—206 BC), the Western Han Dynasty (206 BC—25 AD), the Sui Dynasty(581 AD—618 AD), and the Tang Dynasty (618 AD—907 AD), all had their capital cities at Xi’an. Xi’an was the capital city of Chinese civilization for over one thousand years of its five-thousand—year history. In antiquity, Xi’an was called Chang’an. In the year -23- 1369, its name was changed to Xi’an, and has remained the same to the present day. Now the modern city of Xi’an is the capital of Shaanxi Province. Nanjing is another ancient Chinese capital. The Kingdom of Wu during the Three Kingdoms’ Period (229 AD—277 AD) and the Eastern Jin(#) Dynasty (317 AD—420 AD) all established their capitals in this city. After the outbreak of the 1911 Revolution, Dr. Sun Yat-sen took office as the acting president in Nanjing. From 1927 to 1949, Nanjing performed the role of capital city of the Nationality government of China. Now it is the capital of Jiangsu Province. Beijing was the capital city of the Jin(4z), Yuan, Ming, and Qing Dynasties for a period of more than eight hundred years. After 1949, it became the capital city of the People’s Republic of China. In addition, Luoyang, Kaifeng, and Hangzhou are among what are called the six major ancient Chinese capitals. ~24- getting a library card, going to the library to borrow and return books, paying fines for overdue books: these are some of the things that you are very likely to do in your school life.

Such complements are called simple directional complements. If the action moves towards the speaker, or proceeds towards the object(s) under discussion, we use “3K” ; and if the action moves away from the speaker or proceeds away from the object(s) under discussion , we use “£”. For example; Arif Re (The speaker is standing inside. ) D Ed AT 4 (The speakers are standing upside, BC; Ait HC, | (The speakers are standing outside. ) BC! GH: MEAT. (The speakers are standing downside. ) If a verb with a simple directional complement has an object, it should be placed between the verb and its complement. To negate the completion of an action, the negative adverb “}&( 4)” is used. To form the V/A-not-V/A question with this eonstruction, use the affirmative and negative forms of the predicative verb.

Thus, we cannot say @ “lel 7 342 ” 2. “FR” $a] (1) The “ff” sentence (1) The “##” sentence is a kind of sentence with a verbal predicate. It is frequently used in Chinese to show how the action in the sentence disposes of an object and how this disposal affects the object, i.e. whether the object has been transposed, or its state has been changed. For example; General statement vs. Emphasis on disposal A: EWA A T 2 A: WO BR? EARARILT? B, RABHT. B; Ade#IET. (so you can't find it now) -41- A: WH 2H RLS? A: BARMAN ARG Ada ARE? B: AST (HH), B: AMAR, Kies t AST. (so ve made such a mistake) In the “ff” sentence, the preposition “#%” and its object — the thing(s) to be disposed of — must function together as an adverbial and be placed after the subject and before the verb. S + 48 + O + V + other elements Predicate Subject Adverbial Prep oO Other OpV v | “3” | (disposed of) elements =. T & ae IL & oc a fe | BRAG] OR | Teme K oe KH 4 LK 4 & | To Me #e BE I TRA? We can see the following points from the sentences in the above table: (1) The main verb in the “4” sentence must be a transitive one, and often it has the meaning “dispose of” or “manipulate”. Verbs such as “4 ,7£,42,%,#&,Fl, BK, BS and WW”, which do not have the meaning “dispose of” or “manipulate”, cannot be used in the “#1” sentence. (2) The object in the “2” sentence is usually definite in the speaker's mind. Therefore, we cannot say: @ “FL HGGE— ABIL T ” We can only say: “RFGIE ABA BT”, or “IHL KW BRT. ” (3) The verb a _ “ga” sentence must take some other element(s) after it. The “4” sentences discussed in this lesson all have the particle “J” at the end (and we will introduce the other “ff” sentences with different element(s) later). We cannot say;@ “FE St LAR”; we must say: “FFELIXAILES T” instead. (4) An optative verb or adverb (functioning as an adverbial) must be put be- fore “ff”. For example: “#@GEL MW BIBT. ” 3. BY2L4#hH (1) The time-measure complement (1) The time-measure complement is used after a verb to indicate the duration of -42- an action or state. When the verb has an object, it is duplicated after the object and then followed by a time-measure complement. The first verb is usually omitted in this construction, and its interrogative form often uses the phrase “4 itt ii]”. (V) + O + V_ + time-measure complement | Predicate Subject 7 ] | (Vv) | oO i Vv Pt Times -measure Complement tk | y | -4, ik | | aa | | #4 RAT | O®) He BE ode | SKA ia? a |) ae | oF | Nat Note: Only time phrases indicating a period of time can be used as time-measure complements, such as “—4}4h, Bi/)it,= RUA, H4 and —S JL”. Time phrases indicating a point of time on the time scale, such as “= A$h,—H—#, 2002 4F”, cannot be used as time-measure complements, since they do not express a duration of time. For example, we cannot say; ® “#7 — AK, ” To create the negative form, a negative adverb is usually placed before the predicative verb of the sentence with the time-measure complement. For example; TAREAPIEF WETT EPA, UIGEA THAN A EH? RIPE RA A AS BE 6 1. FHI (2) Methods of constructing Chinese characters (2) Ideographic method (4§33%%): This is a method in which new characters are created by adding signs to conventional symbols and pictographs. There is only a small number of characters that fall under this category, and they are basically of -43- two types: a. Those created on the basis of the conventional symbols established in primi- tive times. For example: —,—,2,19,%,*%,4. b. Those created by adding indicative signs to pictographs. For example; J].

Basic education refers to pre-school, primary, and general secondary education. Chinese children usually start their schooling at the age of six or seven. They spend six years in an elementary school. After that, they enter junior middle school to study for three more years. These nine years of schooling are generally -47- referred to as “nine-year compulsory education”, and are made universal in mos: parts of China. After graduating from junior middle school, many students enter senior middle school, whereas some choose to go to specialized secondary school or vocationa’ secondary school (generally called “vocational senior middle school”). The period of study for both types of school is three years. After graduating, students may seek employment, or they may choose to continue their studies at the higher education level. The length of schooling for a university education is usually four years, but some programs (medicine, for instance) require five years of study. At the time of | graduation, if a student meets all the academic requirements, and is given the authorization of the state, a bachelor’s degree is then conferred upon him or her by the university. After graduating from university, one may opt for further studies toward master’s and doctoral degrees. Each degree usually takes three years to obtain. Like most universities in the world, Chinese universities offer three academic degrees, i.e., the bachelor’s, the master’s, and the doctorate. ~48— Have you ever worn Chinese-style clothes before?

N bido watch D MRA RACIAL T 2 “How long have you been in Beijing?” Some actions, such as “3, 3, #]”, do not endure over time, so a time-measure complement must be used to indicate a period of time from the occurance of this kind of actions until the time of speaking. When the verb is followed by an object, the time-measure complement must be placed after the object. For example; RAPRLA-#T, HERRELBRD DH T 2D BUA AOE MHS T “Now there are plenty of stores and shopping malls in Beijing,” In spoken language, “jk” and “4” are often placed after an adiective or a verb as a complement to indicate an extent or degree. “ff 7” denotes the highest degree, while “4 J” indicates a great extent of difference. For example: AV +&T/ BT ik BH RI RT te aX MT. MAB HRAB FH ZT. HOFF rete FR 3T. -55- ® WRT! “That's wonderful!” In spoken language, this is an expression indicating absolute agreement or satis- faction. It is more emphatic than “KEPT” . Note the range of expressions used to describe the qualities of things; HEART , KEE T (marvelous; excellent ) | AEA, RMF (very good ), # ( good ) AN (not bad ) ATLL, A pEHE (passable; just so-so), AA (not very good) | ABE, 22 I (bad ) ® REARTHT. “I have already bought the shirts.” A verb plus the particle “J” D is a perfective construction. If the object doe- not have an attributive or a numeral classifier compound, _ it requires the particl- “J” @ to complete the sentence. These two particles together indicate the comple- tion and realization of the action expressed by the verb. They also emphasize that th- event or situation has already occurred. For example; RET HBT. ROLT RT. O/H, AURIS , HORE EEL “Miss, I'm really sorry to have troubled you so much.” This expression conveys apology as well as heartfelt thanks. © FEMS, FRB, “All right, I'll buy this one.” This is a common shopping expression. The word “jf” shows emphasis. -56- eee as Drills and Practice : KEY SENTENCES tL RAR S Kepe T? MEK A RE HY, BHR or 0h?

Then you wanted to buy some shirts, but they were either too big or too small, or too long or too short. You didn’t find the colours or styles suitable, so you didn’t buy any shirts.

Beijing has a very advanced public transit system. The bus routes are so numerous that it is possible to take the wrong bus.

For example; HT FERN. 3) BBEMMILA? “Where do you want to mail it to?” -771- The preposition “7” and nouns that indicate place or direction together make u: the preposition-object phrase. “Prep 7+ PW” represents the direction of the actior For example; BEBE, ALA, AMF.

For example; ERNUG, LIKE. @ MAS AYRE AR LEBEAU 08 SH SE, “Sorry, your package is to be picked up at customs, not at our post office.” Foreign packages sent to China are usually picked up at the local post office Sometimes it is necessary to go to the customs office for pick-up. © SUAS TAP AE “Don’t forget to take your passport with you.” “gilts I” here indicates reminding. © BRT WEL. “The bus is here; let’s get on first.” The meaning of “ifi{f]” is almost the same as “#€{{]”, and is commonly used in spoken Chinese. However, “if{/]” includes the listener; “4€{/]” usually does not in- clude the listener. For example: A and B go to the library to borrow books; A says to the librarian; SEAR BRAT HAH. (Sir, we want to borrow books.) Then, A says to B: MA{THEJLA52 (How many books are we going to borrow?) @ HAREM “Please move inside.” The pronoun “73%” indicates everyone in a certain area or group.

Buses without ticket agents are becoming more numerous in some large cities. 8 WEEN, “Passengers who just boarded should purchase tickets, please.” “fil_E 7609” is a form of the “fi” phrase, which means “fil LAEMIRK”, “V+ ay” or “VP+#4” can also form the “ft” phrases. For example: LAPLEM,RERH, CEASA, RAEIAVAT: borrowed book, not purchased) EMR W 1H, (ALIA: tickets to Qianmen) D GXAAK, KEHK. HR. “You gave five dollars; three dollars is your change. Please hold onto your ticket.” These are common phrases used by bus ticket sellers.

There are many things in the parcel and you show them to the clerk one by one. Initially you want to send it by air, since that is faster, but you change your mind after you find out that the postage is very costly because you have so many things to mail. 2) Describe one incident where you had to go to the post office to pick up a package or to withdraw money. 3) You get on a bus and while buying a ticket, find out that you are on the wrong bus. The ticket seller tells you how to change buses to reach your destination. ~85- Es babu Reading Comprehension and Paraphrasing HEH (cOngming) Hy ALF (érzi) 1.

Vet oT ia to listen and understand 5 + to write down a Sf to wrap (the parcel) well = ea to hold onto iz Be to remember incorrectly AB eB to take the wrong (bus ) Resultative complements are closely bound to verbs. There cannot be other words in between. The particle “7” or any objects must be placed behind the resultative complement.

Thus, “(4)” is commonly used in the negation,while “--- [}E4j” is used for the V/A-not-V/A question. For example; MET LA? — ALFIE. RRAGHART RA? — BRA AH ER, The adjective “-” in this lesson is used as a resultative complement, indicating that an action is completed to satisfaction. For example; -87- RM-RAFHRE HARE, MELR. 2. “Fl” 4a] (2) The “ff” sentence (2) There are two types of “J{§” sentence in this lesson; A. “4” sentence with the predicative verb “to give”, such as “#8” , “GK”, “PR (BD” , “HE” , ete.

Its subject and object are nouns or pronouns. The function of the “fy” phrase is e- quivalent to that of a noun; thus it can also serve as the subject and the object of a “J” sentence. ~88- S + #2 + N/A/Pr/Vp + | Predicate Subject t-———_— —— | | Ady “fe” “fy” phrase KG iho hp R HB aD BAKA zX a4, OAL ze pL.

WFAA (4) Methods of constructing Chinese characters(4) Phonetic loan method ({f{# 3): This method uses the shape and sound of a readily available character to represent another word that has the same sound. For ex- ample, the original meaning of “J” was “axe”; it is now borrowed as a measure word to represent “a unit of weight”, which has the same sound. “4%” was originally used to represent a type of weapon; now it is used to write the first person pronoun. “3€” originally meant “wheat”; it is now borrowed to mean “come”, because the sounds were the same in ancient times. All foreign words borrowed through transliteration are applications of the phonetic loan method. For example, “Yo” (sofa), “TI” (coke), etc. 2.

By late 1997, the total national railroad network comprised 57566 km. The network has expanded to reach every province, every region, and cities, except in Tibet. (The Qinghai-Tibet railway is now under construction.) 80% of all the cities in the country have access to railways. In 1997 the total length of roads was 1.2 million kilometers. Roads have ex- panded to all cities and counties throughout the country, with a coverage of 98% of townships (xiang, %) and 80% of villages. Modern highway construction first started in the mid 1980's. Now the total length of the modern highway is 19 thou- sand kilometres, ranking the second in the world. There were a total of 967 commercial passenger airline routes in 1997, which was approximately a seven-fold increase from 1978. ~93- Have you ever seen traditional Chinese painting?

FHF (5) Methods of constructing Chinese characters (5) The pictophonetic method (J% 7%): The majority of Chinese characters are “pictophonetic”. Most consist of one component indicating the sound of the character, the phonetic, combined with one semantic component, the radical, which shows the category of meaning to which the character belongs. The pictophonetic characters fall into several categories: (1) In its basic form, a pictophonetic character is constructed by placing the com- ponent indicating the sound on the right side and the component indicating the mean- ing on the left side.
