是 is/am/are/was/ were “是”will not always be translated as is/am/are/was/were When an adjective directly follows the Subject in an affirmative sentence, the two cannot linked with 是，they will be linked with 很。 e.g. I am fine = 我很好。 ≠ 我是很好。 She is beautiful. = 她很漂亮。 ≠ 她是漂亮。 Your school is big. =你的学校很大。≠ 你的学校是大。 40

是 is/am/are/was/ were In Chinese, adjectives are used without the verb “是” 英文中文(translation) It is expensive. The weather is good today. Also “是”cannot be used in describing age, year grade, prices. I am 15 years old. = 我今年十五岁 ≠ 我是十五岁。 I am year = 我今年九年级 ≠ 我是九年级。 41

很 to intensify verbs that express thoughts or feeling Certain verbs in Chinese can be modified with 很 to increase their intensity. This similar to using "really" or "very much" in English.

就 (jiù) has several translations, including: at once then right away only (emphasis) to approach to move towards to undertake Despite the many English translations, 就 (jiù) is fairly constant. It is used as a marker to indicate precision or immediacy 59-1

Immediacy: 1. 我马上就来。I'll be right there. I'm coming immediately. 2. 他就快到了。He will soon be here. Precision: 1. 我就有两百块。 I only have two hundred dollars. 2. 书店就在转角处。 The book store is just around the corner. 59-2

Interjections : express an exclamation, a call, or a response. Interjections are most often used at the start of a sentence but do not act as an element of the sentence. 喂（wèi）嗯（èn）啊（à）哎呀（āiyā）噢（ō）哦（ó） For example: 64

Interjections : express an exclamation, a call, or a response. 喂！你是小王吗？ [Hello. Are you 小王?] (Making a telephone, expressing a greeting.) 嗯！我是小王。 [Yes. I am小王.] [Expressing a response] 哎呀！我的衣服湿了。 [Oh my! My clothes are wet.] (Expressing surprise) 65

My mistake.] (Expressing realization) 噢！原来是你。 [Oh! It was you all along.] (Expressing understanding) 66

Prepositions: are placed in front of nouns or pronouns to form prepositional phrases expressing the exclusion, comparison, being acted on, mode, cause, object, direction, place, or time of an action. Expressing time, place, and direction: 在、从(cóng)、关于(guān yú)、往(wǎng) Examples: 他从大陆来。 (He is from the mainland.) 从 is a preposition acting as an adverbial adjunct. 这是关于中国的故事。 (This is a story about China.) 关于 is a preposition acting as an attributive. 这辆公共汽车开往天安门。 (This bus is going to Tiananmen.) The preposition 往 acts as a complement. 67

The 把 (bǎ) sentence is a useful structure for focusing on the result or influence of an action/object. Subject + 把 + Object + Verb Phrase Examples: 我把书看完了。姐姐把作业带回家了。弟弟把药吃完了。她把眼镜戴上了。我把我的姓名写下来了。 1.I have finished the book. 2. 3. 4. 5. Translation 68

The 被 (bèi) sentence is a key way to express the passive Passive sentences are used for several main reasons： To indicate that one has been negatively affected. 我的热狗被吃了。My hot dog has been eaten. To shift emphasis from the "doer" of the action to the one affected by that action. 只有那些很好吃的热狗被吃掉了。 Only those really tasty hot dogs were eaten. To avoid having to mention the "doer" of the action, either because it is unknown, or for other reasons. 我的热狗被吃了。My hot dog has been eaten (but I'm not saying who ate it, probably because I don't know). 69

Forming a 被 Sentence Normal sentence：男孩吃了热狗。The boy ate the hot dog. Creating a 被 sentence from a normal sentence Subject Verb Phrase Object 男孩吃了热狗。 Doer 被 Subject + 被 Doer Verb Phrase 69-1

Forming a 被 Sentence with No "Doer" Subject + 被 + Verb Phrase Subject Verb Phrase Object 男孩吃了热狗。 Doer 被 69-2

Forming a Negative 被 Sentence Subject + 没有 + 被 + Doer + Verb Phrase Subject Negative Verb Phrase Object 男孩没有吃掉热狗。 Doer 被 69-3

Adding Adverbs in a 被 Sentence Subject + Adverb + 被 + Doer + Verb Phrase Subject Adverb Verb Phrase Object 男孩常常吃掉热狗。 Doer 被男孩常常吃掉热狗。 (the original sentence, using the adverb常常) 热狗常常被男孩吃掉。 (the passive sentence, using the adverb常常) 热狗常常被吃掉。 (the passive sentence, using the adverb常常, and no "doer") 69-4
