1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:02,500
Standard Chinese, a modular approach.

2
00:00:02,500 --> 00:00:06,400
Transportation module unit 6, production tape 1.

3
00:00:06,400 --> 00:00:11,500
On the comprehension tape in this unit, you learn to understand some more sentences about taking the train.

4
00:00:11,500 --> 00:00:17,900
If you think that you might not remember the meaning of these sentences, go back and review the end of the C1 tape.

5
00:00:17,900 --> 00:00:23,300
If you think that you know the meaning of all the sentences on the target list, you should begin learning how to say them.

6
00:00:23,300 --> 00:00:25,300
Listen to this first exchange.

7
00:00:25,300 --> 00:00:28,500
A professor from the United States is visiting P. King.

8
00:00:28,500 --> 00:00:33,400
Here she is talking with the travel representative in her hotel about arranging a trip to Shanghai.

9
00:00:33,400 --> 00:00:35,400
They are settling on the time of the train.

10
00:00:35,400 --> 00:00:37,000
Listen.

11
00:00:37,000 --> 00:00:38,900
幾點鐘開?

12
00:00:38,900 --> 00:00:41,000
十八點五十五分發車.

13
00:00:41,000 --> 00:00:43,500
那好.

14
00:00:43,500 --> 00:00:47,500
You know that the verb開 means to open and to drive.

15
00:00:47,500 --> 00:00:49,500
Here it has another meaning to leave.

16
00:00:49,500 --> 00:00:52,300
Repeat, what time does it leave?

17
00:00:52,300 --> 00:00:56,700
幾點鐘開?

18
00:00:56,700 --> 00:00:59,100
幾點鐘開?

19
00:00:59,100 --> 00:01:02,300
In the last unit, you learn the verb離開 to leave.

20
00:01:02,300 --> 00:01:05,200
The verb離開 is usually used for people leaving.

21
00:01:05,200 --> 00:01:08,500
The verb開 means to leave when used with vehicles.

22
00:01:08,500 --> 00:01:11,000
Repeat, that's fine.

23
00:01:11,000 --> 00:01:13,900
那好.

24
00:01:13,900 --> 00:01:17,000
那好.

25
00:01:17,000 --> 00:01:19,300
Now try asking, what time does it leave?

26
00:01:19,300 --> 00:01:24,900
Respond to the answer by saying that's fine.

27
00:01:24,900 --> 00:01:26,600
幾點鐘開?

28
00:01:26,600 --> 00:01:30,100
十八點五十五分發車.

29
00:01:30,100 --> 00:01:32,500
那好.

30
00:01:32,500 --> 00:01:35,800
Again.

31
00:01:35,800 --> 00:01:37,400
幾點鐘開?

32
00:01:37,400 --> 00:01:41,100
十八點五十五分發車.

33
00:01:41,100 --> 00:01:43,700
那好.

34
00:01:43,700 --> 00:01:47,500
Later at the train station, the professor has asked this.

35
00:01:47,500 --> 00:01:50,600
請你把你的護照和旅行證給我.

36
00:01:50,600 --> 00:01:52,800
好,給你.

37
00:01:52,800 --> 00:01:55,700
Repeat the equivalent of, okay, here it is.

38
00:01:55,700 --> 00:01:59,000
More literally, okay, I give it to you.

39
00:01:59,000 --> 00:02:03,400
好,給你.

40
00:02:03,400 --> 00:02:06,900
好,給你.

41
00:02:06,900 --> 00:02:09,900
Try responding to the request yourself now.

42
00:02:09,900 --> 00:02:14,900
請你把你的護照和旅行證給我.

43
00:02:14,900 --> 00:02:17,300
好,給你.

44
00:02:17,300 --> 00:02:18,900
Again.

45
00:02:18,900 --> 00:02:23,300
請你把你的護照和旅行證給我.

46
00:02:23,300 --> 00:02:25,600
好,給你.

47
00:02:25,600 --> 00:02:29,200
After showing her passport and travel permission, the professor is ready to go.

48
00:02:29,200 --> 00:02:31,300
Listen.

49
00:02:31,300 --> 00:02:34,500
到上海去的車,在第幾站台.

50
00:02:34,500 --> 00:02:36,800
在第一站台.

51
00:02:36,800 --> 00:02:39,000
Repeat the word for a platform.

52
00:02:39,000 --> 00:02:42,100
站台.

53
00:02:42,100 --> 00:02:44,200
站台.

54
00:02:44,200 --> 00:02:46,700
Repeat which platform?

55
00:02:46,700 --> 00:02:50,900
第幾站台.

56
00:02:50,900 --> 00:02:53,900
第幾站台.

57
00:02:53,900 --> 00:02:57,100
Now repeat the train to Shanghai.

58
00:02:57,100 --> 00:03:02,300
到上海去的車.

59
00:03:02,300 --> 00:03:06,300
到上海去的車.

60
00:03:06,300 --> 00:03:10,300
Repeat on which platform is the train to Shanghai.

61
00:03:10,300 --> 00:03:18,300
到上海去的車,在第幾站台.

62
00:03:18,300 --> 00:03:24,200
到上海去的車,在第幾站台.

63
00:03:24,200 --> 00:03:31,900
Try asking the question yourself to get a reply.

64
00:03:31,900 --> 00:03:35,200
到上海去的車,在第幾站台.

65
00:03:35,200 --> 00:03:38,000
在第一站台.

66
00:03:38,000 --> 00:03:44,600
Again.

67
00:03:44,600 --> 00:03:47,600
到上海去的車,在第幾站台.

68
00:03:47,600 --> 00:03:51,100
在第一站台.

69
00:03:51,100 --> 00:03:55,300
How do you say platform?

70
00:03:55,300 --> 00:03:57,000
站台.

71
00:03:57,000 --> 00:04:01,800
And how do you say which platform?

72
00:04:01,800 --> 00:04:05,200
第幾站台.

73
00:04:05,200 --> 00:04:08,300
The guard has some instructions for the professor.

74
00:04:08,300 --> 00:04:11,000
不用急,還早呢?

75
00:04:11,000 --> 00:04:15,200
以現在這個接待室休息休息.

76
00:04:15,200 --> 00:04:18,000
Repeat the adjectival verb to be anxious.

77
00:04:18,000 --> 00:04:24,300
急.

78
00:04:24,300 --> 00:04:27,100
Repeat no need to be anxious.

79
00:04:27,100 --> 00:04:35,100
不用急.

80
00:04:35,100 --> 00:04:38,400
The phrase不用 is equivalent of don't.

81
00:04:38,400 --> 00:04:41,300
This phrase for commands always occurs in the negative.

82
00:04:41,300 --> 00:04:45,100
How do you say no need to be anxious?

83
00:04:45,100 --> 00:04:48,500
不用急.

84
00:04:48,500 --> 00:04:51,500
Now repeat the adjectival verb to be early.

85
00:04:51,500 --> 00:04:57,400
早.

86
00:04:57,400 --> 00:04:59,700
Repeat it's still early.

87
00:04:59,700 --> 00:05:06,100
還早呢?

88
00:05:06,100 --> 00:05:10,900
The marker 呢 is used to emphasize that a state or action is currently going on.

89
00:05:10,900 --> 00:05:14,800
How do you say it's still early?

90
00:05:14,800 --> 00:05:18,900
還早呢?

91
00:05:18,900 --> 00:05:24,200
How do you say no need to be anxious?

92
00:05:24,200 --> 00:05:27,900
不用急.

93
00:05:27,900 --> 00:05:30,200
How do you say no need to be anxious?

94
00:05:30,200 --> 00:05:34,300
It's still early.

95
00:05:34,300 --> 00:05:38,200
不用急,還早呢?

96
00:05:38,200 --> 00:05:42,800
Again.

97
00:05:42,800 --> 00:05:47,400
不用急,還早呢?

98
00:05:47,400 --> 00:05:51,200
Now repeat the word for waiting room or reception room.

99
00:05:51,200 --> 00:05:58,500
接待室

100
00:05:58,500 --> 00:06:03,200
This room is equivalent to our VIP lounges and airports or train stations.

101
00:06:03,200 --> 00:06:06,500
Now repeat the verb to rest or relax.

102
00:06:06,500 --> 00:06:12,500
休息.

103
00:06:12,500 --> 00:06:17,500
The verb休息 is often reduplicated meaning to rest a little.

104
00:06:17,500 --> 00:06:20,700
The stress is on the first syllable and reduplicated verbs.

105
00:06:20,700 --> 00:06:23,400
Repeat rest a bit.

106
00:06:23,400 --> 00:06:29,200
休息休息.

107
00:06:29,200 --> 00:06:34,100
Repeat first you rest a bit in this waiting room.

108
00:06:34,100 --> 00:06:37,800
你现在这个接待室休息休息.

109
00:06:37,800 --> 00:06:46,400
你现在这个接待室休息休息.

110
00:06:46,400 --> 00:06:52,700
The word order in this sentence is the usual time, place, action.

111
00:06:52,700 --> 00:06:54,000
Repeat again.

112
00:06:54,000 --> 00:06:56,300
First you rest a bit in this waiting room.

113
00:06:56,300 --> 00:07:00,300
你现在这个接待室休息休息.

114
00:07:00,300 --> 00:07:08,700
你现在这个接待室休息休息.

115
00:07:08,700 --> 00:07:12,400
Try saying it ahead of the speaker.

116
00:07:12,400 --> 00:07:14,800
First you rest a bit in this waiting room.

117
00:07:14,800 --> 00:07:24,200
你现在这个接待室休息休息.

118
00:07:24,200 --> 00:07:30,700
Now try saying the instructions from the beginning.

119
00:07:30,700 --> 00:07:32,600
I'll give you your lines in English.

120
00:07:32,600 --> 00:07:34,400
No need to be anxious.

121
00:07:34,400 --> 00:07:38,200
不用急.

122
00:07:38,200 --> 00:07:40,900
It's still early.

123
00:07:40,900 --> 00:07:44,700
还早呢?

124
00:07:44,700 --> 00:07:48,700
First you rest a bit in this waiting room.

125
00:07:48,700 --> 00:08:00,200
你现在这个接待室休息休息.

126
00:08:00,200 --> 00:08:02,000
The professor has another question.

127
00:08:02,000 --> 00:08:02,800
Listen.

128
00:08:02,800 --> 00:08:05,800
我这件行李怎么办?

129
00:08:05,800 --> 00:08:08,000
是不是可以拿上车去?

130
00:08:08,000 --> 00:08:10,400
可以把行李拿上车去.

131
00:08:10,400 --> 00:08:14,400
Repeat the phrase for this suitcase.

132
00:08:14,400 --> 00:08:16,200
这件行李.

133
00:08:16,200 --> 00:08:21,200
这件行李.

134
00:08:21,200 --> 00:08:26,700
Now repeat the phrase which means what's to be done.

135
00:08:26,700 --> 00:08:28,700
怎么办?

136
00:08:28,700 --> 00:08:33,200
怎么办?

137
00:08:33,200 --> 00:08:39,200
Repeat what do I do about the suitcase of mine?

138
00:08:39,200 --> 00:08:42,400
我这件行李怎么办?

139
00:08:42,400 --> 00:08:51,400
我这件行李怎么办?

140
00:08:51,400 --> 00:08:58,400
Notice that the phrase this suitcase of mine is the topic of the sentence, followed by that verb phrase怎么办?

141
00:08:58,400 --> 00:09:02,400
How do you say, what do I do about this suitcase of mine?

142
00:09:02,400 --> 00:09:11,400
我这件行李怎么办?

143
00:09:11,400 --> 00:09:14,400
Now repeat the verb to carry or to take.

144
00:09:14,400 --> 00:09:18,400
拿.

145
00:09:18,400 --> 00:09:23,400
Repeat carry on to the train.

146
00:09:23,400 --> 00:09:30,400
拿上车去.

147
00:09:30,400 --> 00:09:42,400
Notice that this phrase has one verb stating the action拿 and two verbs stating the direction of the action上 and去 up and away.

148
00:09:42,400 --> 00:09:49,400
Notice also that the place word object车 comes after the verb上 but before the verb去.

149
00:09:49,400 --> 00:09:50,400
Repeat.

150
00:09:50,400 --> 00:09:52,400
Can I take it on to the train?

151
00:09:52,400 --> 00:09:59,400
是不是可以拿上车去?

152
00:09:59,400 --> 00:10:07,400
是不是可以拿上车去?

153
00:10:07,400 --> 00:10:10,400
Try asking both questions now, you'll get a reply.

154
00:10:10,400 --> 00:10:12,400
What do I do about the suitcase of mine?

155
00:10:12,400 --> 00:10:23,400
Can I take it on to the train?

156
00:10:23,400 --> 00:10:25,400
我这件行李怎么办?

157
00:10:25,400 --> 00:10:27,400
是不是可以拿上车去?

158
00:10:27,400 --> 00:10:31,400
可以把行李拿上车去?

159
00:10:31,400 --> 00:10:38,400
Again.

160
00:10:38,400 --> 00:10:40,400
我这件行李怎么办?

161
00:10:40,400 --> 00:10:42,400
是不是可以拿上车去?

162
00:10:42,400 --> 00:10:47,400
可以把行李拿上车去。

163
00:10:47,400 --> 00:10:51,400
Later on the train, the professor would like to find something out.

164
00:10:51,400 --> 00:10:53,400
这班车有餐车吧?

165
00:10:53,400 --> 00:10:56,400
有,有中餐也有西餐。

166
00:10:56,400 --> 00:10:58,400
好极了。

167
00:10:58,400 --> 00:11:00,400
Repeat the word for dining car.

168
00:11:00,400 --> 00:11:07,400
餐车。

169
00:11:07,400 --> 00:11:12,400
You've already seen the syllable 餐 in the word 餐廳 dining room.

170
00:11:12,400 --> 00:11:13,400
Repeat.

171
00:11:13,400 --> 00:11:16,400
There must be a dining car on this train.

172
00:11:16,400 --> 00:11:22,400
这班车有餐车吧?

173
00:11:22,400 --> 00:11:26,400
这班车有餐车吧?

174
00:11:26,400 --> 00:11:30,400
Now repeat the phrase for extremely good or wonderful.

175
00:11:30,400 --> 00:11:38,400
好极了。

176
00:11:38,400 --> 00:11:45,400
The bound syllable 极 and the marker 乐 can be added to an adjectival verb to express extremely something.

177
00:11:45,400 --> 00:11:47,400
Repeat extremely expensive.

178
00:11:47,400 --> 00:11:53,400
贵极了。

179
00:11:53,400 --> 00:11:57,400
And how do you say extremely good or wonderful?

180
00:11:57,400 --> 00:12:01,400
好极了。

181
00:12:01,400 --> 00:12:03,400
Now you find out about the dining car.

182
00:12:03,400 --> 00:12:06,400
Say that there must be a dining car on this train.

183
00:12:06,400 --> 00:12:11,400
Then respond to the answer with great.

184
00:12:11,400 --> 00:12:13,400

中餐。

194
00:12:47,400 --> 00:12:49,400
Repeat the word for Western style meal.

195
00:12:49,400 --> 00:12:52,400

西餐。

197

202

00:13:30,400 --> 00:13:35,400

Again.

205
00:13:37,400 --> 00:13:43,400
这班车有餐车吧?

206
00:13:43,400 --> 00:13:49,400
有,有中餐也有西餐。

207
00:13:49,400 --> 00:13:54,400

西餐。

215
00:14:18,400 --> 00:14:22,400
Toward the end of your trip, the conductor might come to you and say,

216
00:14:22,400 --> 00:14:30,400
下一站就是上海了,快要到站了,您准备下车吧。

217
00:14:30,400 --> 00:14:33,400
The next station is Shanghai.

218
00:14:33,400 --> 00:14:39,400
下一站就是上海了。

219
00:14:39,400 --> 00:14:46,400
下一站就是上海了。

220
00:14:46,400 --> 00:14:49,400
The marker 路 is used to emphasize a new situation.

221
00:14:49,400 --> 00:14:53,400
The train has passed through many stations and now finally the next one is Shanghai.

222
00:14:53,400 --> 00:14:57,400
Therefore the new situation is emphasized with the marker 路.

223
00:14:57,400 --> 00:15:04,400
How do you say the next station is Shanghai?

224
00:15:04,400 --> 00:15:08,400
下一站就是上海了。

225
00:15:08,400 --> 00:15:11,400
Now repeat the word for soon.

226
00:15:11,400 --> 00:15:14,400
快。

227
00:15:14,400 --> 00:15:17,400
快。

228
00:15:17,400 --> 00:15:21,400
This is the word quiet, which also means fast.

229
00:15:21,400 --> 00:15:25,400
Repeat the auxiliary verb will or be going to.

230
00:15:25,400 --> 00:15:30,400
要。

231
00:15:30,400 --> 00:15:35,400
This is the word 要, which also means to want or to need.

232
00:15:35,400 --> 00:15:38,400
Now repeat, we're about to arrive at the station.

233
00:15:38,400 --> 00:15:43,400
快要到站了。

234
00:15:43,400 --> 00:15:48,400
快要到站了。

235
00:15:48,400 --> 00:15:52,400
Notice the marker 路, again it indicates a new situation.

236
00:15:52,400 --> 00:15:55,400
But in this case it's not a situation which has just changed,

237
00:15:55,400 --> 00:15:59,400
but one that is going to change a future new situation.

238
00:15:59,400 --> 00:16:06,400
How do you say we're about to arrive at the station?

239
00:16:06,400 --> 00:16:11,400
快要到站了。

240
00:16:11,400 --> 00:16:16,400
The auxiliary verb 要 is another clear indication that you're talking about a future action.

241
00:16:16,400 --> 00:16:22,400
How do you say we're about to arrive at the station?

242
00:16:22,400 --> 00:16:27,400
快要到站了。

243
00:16:27,400 --> 00:16:31,400
Now repeat the verb to prepare or to get ready to.

244
00:16:31,400 --> 00:16:34,400
准备。

245
00:16:34,400 --> 00:16:38,400
准备。

246
00:16:38,400 --> 00:16:42,400
Repeat, please get ready to get off the train.

247
00:16:42,400 --> 00:16:47,400
准备下车吧。

248
00:16:47,400 --> 00:16:53,400
准备下车吧。

249
00:16:53,400 --> 00:16:56,400
Notice that the English translation says please.

250
00:16:56,400 --> 00:17:00,400
This is because the marker 把 make the sentence polite in attitude.

251
00:17:00,400 --> 00:17:06,400
How do you say please get ready to get off the train?

252
00:17:06,400 --> 00:17:11,400
准备下车吧。

253
00:17:11,400 --> 00:17:14,400
Now try the whole thing.

254
00:17:14,400 --> 00:17:17,400
I'll give you your lines in English one by one.

255
00:17:17,400 --> 00:17:23,400
The next station is Shanghai.

256
00:17:23,400 --> 00:17:27,400
下一站就是上海了。

257
00:17:27,400 --> 00:17:32,400
We're about to arrive at the station.

258
00:17:32,400 --> 00:17:37,400
快要到站了。

259
00:17:37,400 --> 00:17:42,400
Please get ready to get off the train.

260
00:17:42,400 --> 00:17:46,400
准备下车吧。

261
00:17:46,400 --> 00:17:48,400

Can I carry it onto the train?

281
00:19:02,400 --> 00:19:06,400
