404000	415000	3月.August.8月.
415000	434000	Now here's how you say the seventh day of a month. 七号.The word 号 means number, but it's also a counter. Look at note one in your workbook for more information on counters. Now here's how you say April 7.

569000	580000	Now take a look at exercise one. The speaker will say a date in Chinese. Circle the number of the English translation.
580000	607000	8月5.8月20.10月20.10月4.12月4.12月1.
607000	626000	4月1.4月11.1月11.1月31.
626000	641000	Now look at display one in your workbook. Give the Chinese for the dates in the exercise. The correct answer will be given on the tape. Ready? Begin.
641000	667000	November.1.4月20.2.5月20.3.5月14.4.
667000	694000	3月14.5.3月25.6.9.25.7.
694000	714000	9月3.8.7月3.9.7月11.
714000	728000	Now let's take a look at how to ask for the date. The word for today is 今天.Repeat the word for today. 今天.
728000	749000	今天. Listen to the way you ask, what is today's date? 今天幾號. 幾 means how many. Literally the sentence means something like today how many days. Repeat after the speaker, what's today's date? 今天幾號.
749000	758000	今天幾號. 今天幾號.
758000	772000	Now you try asking for the date. Each time the English speaker says question, you ask what's today's date. A response will be given in Chinese. Question.
772000	780000	9月5. Question.
780000	787000	12月7. Question.
787000	795000	8月31. Question.
795000	803000	6月23. Question.
803000	808000	1月14.
808000	819000	Actually, usually when you ask 今天幾號, you'd probably answer only with the date of the month and not the month at all since it's usually assumed that the month is known.
819000	845000	If you wanted to ask for a month, you would ask 幾月, how many months? To ask, what's this month you'd say? 這個月是幾月? Repeat. What's this month after the speaker? 這個月是幾月? 這個月是幾月?
845000	874000	Ask what month it is ahead of the speaker and then repeat. 這個月是幾月? Listen to this exchange. 這個月是幾月? 十月? 今天幾號? 二十一號? Repeat the lines after the speaker. 這個月是幾月?
874000	884000	十月… 十月… 十月… 十月… 十月… 十月… 十月… 十月… 十月… 十月…

920000	925000	十月。
925000	929000	今天几号?

951000	953000	今天几号?
953000	957000	二十一号。
957000	960000	Now take a look at the display too.
