  10. <p>This publication is to be used primarily in support of training military personnel as part of the Defense Language Program (resident and nonresident). Inquiries concerning the use of materials, including requests for copies, should be addressed to:</p>
  11. <p>Defense Language Institute Foreign Language Center Nonresident Instruction Division Presidio of Monterey, CA 93940</p>
  12. <p>Topics in the areas of politics’ international relations, mores’ etc., which may be considered as controversial from some points of view are sometimes included in language training for DLIFLC students, since military personnel may find themselves in positions where clear understanding of conversations or written material of this nature will be essential to their mission. The presence of controversial statements—whether real or apparent—in DLIFLC materials should not be construed as representing the opinions of the writers, of the Defense Language Institute, or of the Department of Defense.</p>
  13. <p>In DLIFLC publications, the words ‘.lie’” “him,” and “his” denote both masculine and feminine genders. This statement does not apply to translations of foreign language texts.</p><h3>STANDARD CHINESE</h3><h4>A MODULAR APPROACH</h4>

  1877. <p>People*丨 coamunes, of vhich there are now over 52,000 in China, are the admlnlstratlTe unit丨 of the countryside. There are three levels of coBnmme organization: the production team, with from eleven to over one hundred houaeholdfl; the production 'brigade, with from twenty to over one thousand households; and the conssune itself, with from six to seventeen brigades or from fifty-six to 275 teams. A typical cososune might have a population of 22,500 people, 'broken dovn Into fifteen production 'brigades of three hundred families each, and each brigade vould in turn be coaposed of ten production teams of thirty faollies* (Of course, no actual comnune vould be divided up so evenly.) A typical county might be made up of thirteen communes of this size.</p>
  1878. <p>The people's coimrunes vere formed after a long series of changes in the organization of the countryside, beginning vith the Land Reform Movement of 1950. This movement distributed the land to the peasants; the next step vas to 'begin the coordination of their efforts in production. They did this in 1951 by forming mutual aid teazu, also caJJ.ed work exchange teams. The peasants still ovned their ovn land, plows, and livestock, &quot;but they pooled their manpover<sub>9</sub> tools, and other resources to get the work done.</p>
  1879. <p>In 1953• elcMntazy agricultural cooperatives vere organized by merging several mutual aid teaaa. The land, tools <sub>9</sub> and livestock became the property of the coopentire, but the profits from the land vere distributed, not ret&amp;lned by th« eonsone for investment • In 1956, vhen advanced agricultural cooperatives vert established, the distribution of profits vaa abolished.</p>
  1880. <p>In 1958, the last step to communize China vaa taken. The people's communes vere formed by the merging of several advanced agricultural cooperatives. What vas formerly an advanced agricultural cooperative 'became-丨 production 'brigade. The original plan for cosmiunlzatlon had called for coscpletlon in 19^7• Since no major problems vere encountered, the plan vas</p>
  1881. <p>Todayt conune me&amp;bers still live in indlvldu&amp;l ho\iaea. All the land, buildingsshops, clinic®, large machinery, electrical power stations<sub>9</sub> fac-and so on<sub>9</sub> belong to the commune. However, the planning of the production ud th6 pcTiaecit of the īnenLbers, vhich depends on the amount of production9 is done on the production team level. All the teams havǎ their ovn livestock, but they take turn丨 borrovlng large machines such as planters or tractors from the conmrune. Production teams often specialize in one type of activity, such as crop ralaing, machinery repair, or animal husbandry. Production brigades handle tasks vhich are beyond the capacity of a team<sub>f</sub> such &amp;8 irrigation or the purchasing of a tractor. Truly large projects like road construction or the establishment of &amp;&nbsp;large, veil-equipped hospital, must be taken on by the cosszrune.</p>
  1882. <p>ySu meiyou xlSzhe: -Zhe is the marker of duration. Together vlth &amp;&nbsp;verb, it describes &amp;&nbsp;STATE, for example:</p>
  1883. <p>M£n &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;k&amp;lzhe.</p>
  1884. <p>(The door Is in the state of &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&quot;The door is open.&quot;</p>

  1888. <p>having been closed.)</p>
  1889. <p>Thus, ri$zhe<sub>f</sub> in exchange 1, means literally <sup>n</sup>in the state of having been writtenT<sup>11</sup></p>
  1890. <p>To make 丨 vert plus -zhe negative, use mgj(you) (not bil):</p>
  1891. <p>M^n k&amp;lzhe. &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The door Is not open.</p>

  1893. <p>Danzlshang m&amp;l zlSzhe. &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;It isn^t written on the list.</p>
  1894. <p>To make a question* use one of the follovlng patterns:</p>

  1896. <p>M&amp;i ySu atiyou kalzhe? &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Is the door open?</p>

  1899. <p>M$n kalzhe ne m&amp;? &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Is the door open?</p>
  1900. <p>K&amp;lzhe ne. &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Yes, it*s open.</p>
  1901. <p>Many speakers of standard Chinese do not use this *the; they would repl&amp;ce it by pbrMlng such as M^n kalle and Danzishang y5u meiyou xi8 (or xl? le meiyou). HiMe •exrtencM are also perfectly good Chinese.</p>

  2606. <p>li: A Chinese unit of length, equal to one-half kilometer, is often used to measure the noun lu (&quot;road,” but here meaning simply &quot;walking or riding distance”:</p>

  2611. <p>ygu ylvan li ching: ”is ten thousand 11 long” Use the verb ySu (not shl) in sentences telling or asking length, height * &amp;re&amp;» time, age* etc. In such sentences* y8u has the special meaning <sup>n</sup>to attain<sub>y</sub> to come up to (a certain level).<sup>n</sup></p>

  4022. <p>XlnJiSng: The XīnJiang Uygur Autonomous Region, formerly knovn as Slnklazig or Chinese Turkestan, is China*s vestemmost area. The largest of the country^ autonomous regions and provinces, Xinjiang makes up one sixth of China’s total area. In this vast land of great natural beauty and sharp geographical contrasts, plentiful resources make conditions ideal for the development of industry, agriculture, and livestock farming,</p>
  4023. <p>Xinjiang has held an Important place in China<sup>f</sup>s politics and econosor since ancient times. In the days before the large-scale n&amp;rlg&amp;tion of the seas, Xinjiang vas crossed by the famous ”Silk Road,<sup>n</sup> by vhich economic and cultural ties vere maintained betveen China and other Asi&amp;n and European countries. During the Western H&amp;n period over tvo thousand years ago, incursions by the Xiongnfl (Hslungnu) led the Chinese central government to a policy of occupying the oasis cities of southern XlnJiSng as garrison posts.</p>
  4024. <p>XīnJ iang h&amp;s been Intimately connected vith China ever since that time, although their rel&amp;tio&amp;fl have often been turbulent • The Qlng dynasty made a proTlnce of XInJiing (the name means ”the New Dominion”)in l88U, From the Chinese revolution in 19U until 19^9* Xinjiang remained under authoritarian Chinese control at the same time that local nationalist forces vere also at vork. Communist Chinese forces &quot;liberated” XīnJ Iang from late 191*9 until the spring of 1950. Xinjiang became an autonomous region on October 1, 1955.</p>
  4025. <p>XīnJ iang is surrounded ty mountains: the Altay In the north; the Kunlun in the soxrth and vest; and the Tianshan Range, over 200 kilometers vide, vhich cuts across the center from east to vest. Betveen these mountain r&amp;nges are b&amp;Bins of TSTTlng Biz籲露• Soutbern Xlnjlaxig h&amp;s the Tarim Basin and northern Xinjiang the Dcnngarlan Basin. In addition there are smaller basins such as the HmH and Turf an Basins. All are veil-suited to agriculture and livestock farming. XīnJling fi&amp;e*vool sheep and Ylll horses are famous throughout China. Despite a harsh seven-month winter, the north has its herdsmen vho put their horses and sheep to graze on the vide grasslands for the brief summer. In the arid south, too, livestock herding Is a major occupation.</p>
  4026. <p>In agricultural areas, the dry climate makes irrigation indispensable; a full ninety percent of XīnJiang<sup>1</sup>s farmland is irrigated. The areas around Turpan and Haml are famous for their ^karez<sup>11</sup> (kSnrjlng) irrigation, a system for conveying water from sources under mountain slopes to farmland by means of man»made underground channels. Crops Include winter and spring vheat» cotton,</p>
  4027. <p>corn* rice and sHkvorma. But Xinjiang is most celebrated for its fruits—</p>

  4180. <p>Some scholars have hypothesized that their origins vere Indo-European rather than Turkic. At ujr rate, they emerge into the light of history in the Tfing dynasty. At that tise, they vere a nomadic people veil knovn to the Chinese; in fact, they helped the T&amp;ng overthrow a hostile Turkic empire in Mongolia in 7UU. The Ujgors, in turn, established an einpirc in the area, but this lasted only until 8U0, vhen the vild Kergez sacked their capital and killed their khan. A portion of their population then migrated vestvard to the oases of the Tarim B&amp;sin. There, they mixed vith the local Turkic population, and although the Uygur racial strain dominated» they adopted the Turkic language and no longer called themselves Uygurs. Gradually* their occupation shifted from nomadic herding to farming. The resulting stability alloved a great development in their literature and arts, especially song &amp;nd dance. In the tenth century, closer contact vith merchants, travelers<sub>f</sub> and settlers from the Middle East stimulated their conversion to Islam, a process vhich took several centuries to complete.</p>
  4181. <p>Modern times have vltness«d the emergence of Uygur nationalism, reflected in their official readoptlon of the historical name ^gur&quot; earlier in this century, Uygur leaders have often resisted control &quot;by outside povers, and eren attenqpted to establish an independent republic in the region. Under Chinese authority today, the Uygurs, vho remain for the most part a farming people living and marrying vlthln the village unit, have a limited degree of regional autonomy and are guaranteed cultural freedom and linguistic rights by the PRC Constitution.</p>

  4663. <p>Loess is a fine-grained, chalky soil between silt and clay, actually a deposit of windblown sand. China's loess deposits are the most extensive in the world; they cover most of Shdnxǐ and Shānxī provinces, and the better part of G3nsǔ, and extend into Hibi\ and Hěnńn as well. Because it holds moisture well, loess makes good farming ground when irrigated. Loess is buff to gray in color (the Chinese word for loess, huńngtǔ, means literally, * yellow soil&quot;) and it is loess that gives the Yellow River its distinctive yellowish appearance.</p><img src="0261-FSI-StandardChinese-Module08TVL-StudentTextAndWorkbook_files/0261-FSI-StandardChinese-Module08TVL-StudentTextAndWorkbook-10.png" style="width:413pt;height:251pt;"/>
