467000	471000	They continue. Listen.
471000	475000	今天下午两点钟方便吗?
475000	484000	三点比两点方便一点.Repeat Mr. Martin's line. Would two o'clock today be convenient?
484000	492000	今天下午两点钟方便吗?
492000	499000	今天下午两点钟方便吗?
499000	508000	Notice the word order. The time phrase which comes before the verb is ordered, beginning with the largest unit of time and ending with the smallest unit of time.
508000	519000	Ask the question yourself now. You'll get a reply. Would two o'clock today be convenient?
519000	523000	今天下午两点钟方便吗?
523000	534000	三点比两点方便一点.Again.
534000	538000	今天下午两点钟方便吗?
538000	544000	三点比两点方便一点.
544000	550000	Now let's take a look at the answer. Repeat the prepositional verb which means in comparison with.
550000	554000	比.比.
554000	562000	Repeat. Three would be more convenient than two, or more literally, three in comparison with two is more convenient.
562000	569000	三点比两点方便一点.
569000	577000	三点比两点方便一点.
577000	586000	The prepositional verb 比 is used to compare two things which are different. The two things compared come before and after the prepositional verb 比.
586000	598000	The prepositional verb phrase with 比 is usually followed by an adjectival verb. How do you say three would be more convenient than two?
598000	603000	三点比两点方便一点.
603000	609000	Promise responding to the question yourself now. Answer that three would be more convenient than two.
609000	617000	今天下午两点钟方便吗?
617000	624000	三点比两点方便一点.Again.
624000	632000	今天下午两点钟方便吗?
632000	637000	三点比两点方便一点.
637000	648000	Using what you've just learned about the prepositional verb 比, try translating the following sentences. This is more expensive than that.
648000	653000	这个比那个贵.
653000	661000	This dictionary is larger than that dictionary.
661000	669000	这本字点比那本字点大.
669000	674000	He's busier than I am.
674000	680000	他比我忙.
680000	686000	Your television is better than mine.
686000	691000	你的电视比我的好.
691000	695000	Let's take a moment to discuss comparison with 比.
695000	708000	The two things that you compare using 比 need not only be nouns or pronouns. You can compare two actions using verb phrases. For instance, repeat, going by plane is faster than going by train.
708000	719000	坐飞机比坐火车快.
719000	730000	How would you say it's more convenient to drive than to take the train?
730000	737000	开车比坐火车方便.Again.
737000	746000	开车比坐火车方便.
746000	758000	In addition to nouns, pronouns, and verb phrases, the two things you can compare using 比 can be full sentences. Repeat, it's more convenient for you to come than for me to go.
758000	765000	你来比我去方便.
765000	781000	You may also want to compare how two people do things. First of all, repeat, he does well in his studies.
781000	787000	他念书念得很好.
787000	794000	You'll remember that when you're describing an action which consists of a verb plus object, the entire action is first stated.
794000	802000	Then the main verb follows describing the manner. Now repeat, he does better in his studies than I do.
802000	815000	他念书比我念得好.
815000	828000	Notice that the entire action is still stated at the front of the sentence. How would you say he drives faster than I do?
828000	834000	他开车比我开得快.
834000	843000	How do you say he reads magazines more quickly than I do?
843000	849000	他看杂志比我看得快.
849000	864000	How do you say Comrade Ma studies English better than Comrade Fang?
864000	873000	马同志学英文比方同志学得好.
873000	877000	You'll find more examples on the drill tape for this unit.
877000	885000	Let's return now to the conversation between Mr. Martin and Section Chief Zhu. Here's where we left off.
885000	889000	今天下午两点钟方便吗?
889000	896000	三点比两点方便一点,因为我一会儿出去,也许两点回不来.
896000	900000	三点钟也好.
900000	904000	Repeat the compound verb result, cannot come back.
904000	912000	回不来,回不来.
912000	915000	Now repeat, can come back.
915000	922000	回得来,回得来.
922000	926000	In the transportation module, you learned the verb 回来 to come back.
926000	932000	Now you see this verb with the syllables 得 and 不 inserted between the syllables of 回来.
932000	937000	The insertion of 得 or 不 signals a new form of the verb, the potential form.
937000	944000	It's called this because verbs like 回得来回不来 combine the meaning of be able to or can with the original meaning of the verb.
944000	951000	回得来 can come back,回不来 cannot come back.
951000	958000	Now compare the verb 回不来 with the phrase 不回来 is not coming back.
958000	962000	The different ordering of the syllable 不 signals a different meaning.
962000	967000	How do you say is not coming back?
967000	970000	不回来.
970000	975000	How do you say cannot come back?
975000	979000	回不来.
979000	983000	Only compound verbs of result can occur in the potential form.
983000	988000	Here's another example.Repeat can go up.
988000	995000	上得去,上得去.
995000	999000	How would you say cannot go up?
999000	1002000	上不去.
1002000	1005000	Not all compound verbs are compound verbs of result.
1005000	1009000	For instance,准备 and计划 are not.
1009000	1012000	This means they do not occur in the potential form.
1012000	1017000	You may be asking, how can I tell which compound verbs are compound verbs of result?
1017000	1022000	Although there is no sure way to tell, there are characteristics you can take note of.
1022000	1026000	A compound verb of result usually has an action verb in the first syllable,
1026000	1029000	and the second syllable shows the result of that action.
1029000	1033000	For instance, repeat can finish doing.
1033000	1040000	做得完,做得完.
1040000	1044000	Repeat cannot finish doing.
1044000	1052000	做不完,做不完.
1052000	1055000	When compound verbs of result are not in the potential form,
1055000	1058000	they are usually in the completed action form,
1058000	1061000	that is with the marker 了 or the negative marker 美.
1061000	1063000	This is called the actual form.
1063000	1066000	The verb indicates what actually happened.
1066000	1074000	Repeat, that matter is already finished.
1074000	1080000	那件事已經做完了.
1080000	1093000	And how would you say that matter can't be finished in a day?
1093000	1100000	那件事一天做不完.
1100000	1102000	Let's return to the conversation now.
1102000	1107000	You'll recall you're working on this sentence.
1107000	1114000	因为我一会儿出句,也许两点回不来.
1114000	1117000	Repeat the adverb perhaps.
1117000	1123000	也许,也许.
1123000	1128000	Repeat the phrase, I might not be able to get back by two.
1128000	1134000	也许两点回不来.
1134000	1138000	也许两点回不来.
1138000	1142000	Now repeat the word which means a little while.
1142000	1148000	一会儿,一会儿.
1148000	1153000	Repeat the phrase, because I'm going out in a little while.
1153000	1159000	因为我一会儿出去.
1159000	1163000	因为我一会儿出去.
1163000	1165000	Repeat the whole sentence.
1165000	1170000	Because I'm going out in a little while, I might not be able to get back by two.
1170000	1181000	因为我一会儿出去,也许两点回不来.
1181000	1188000	因为我一会儿出去,也许两点回不来.
1188000	1192000	Again.
1192000	1202000	我一会儿出去,也许两点回不来.
1202000	1209000	因为我一会儿出去,也许两点回不来.
1209000	1212000	Try saying it ahead of the speaker, you'll get a reply.
1212000	1221000	Because I'm going out in a little while, I might not be able to get back by two.
1221000	1226000	因为我一会儿出去,也许两点回不来.
1226000	1229000	三点钟,也好.
1229000	1236000	Again.
1236000	1241000	因为我一会儿出去,也许两点回不来.
1241000	1245000	三点钟,也好.
1245000	1248000	Listen as the conversation continues.
1248000	1252000	那么我三点钟在楼下的会客室等您.
1252000	1256000	好,三点钟见.
1256000	1259000	Repeat the word for well then.
1259000	1264000	那么.
1264000	1267000	Repeat the word for downstairs.
1267000	1273000	楼下.
1273000	1277000	Repeat the word for reception room.
1277000	1282000	会客室.
1282000	1285000	会客室.
1285000	1289000	Repeat the downstairs reception room.
1289000	1294000	楼下的会客室.
1294000	1298000	楼下的会客室.
1298000	1300000	Repeat.
1300000	1304000	I'll wait for you in the reception room downstairs.
1304000	1311000	我在楼下的会客室等您.
1311000	1317000	我在楼下的会客室等您.
1317000	1319000	Repeat.

1360000	1367000	那么我三点钟在楼下的会客室等您.

1370000	1371000	Well then.
1371000	1381000	I'll wait for you in the reception room downstairs at three o'clock.

1399000	1402000	三点钟见.
1402000	1408000	Now let's review the conversation on this tape.
1408000	1410000	Put the following lines into Chinese.

1444000	1453000	I have something I'd like to talk about with you in person.
1453000	1460000	我有点是想跟您当面谈谈.
1460000	1467000	I don't know whether you have time or not.
1467000	1471000	不知道您有功夫没有?
1471000	1474000	I have the time.
1474000	1477000	有功夫.
1477000	1483000	What time would suit you?
1483000	1487000	什么时候对您合适?

1492000	1496000	今天明天都可以.

1504000	1509000	今天下午两点钟方便吗?
1509000	1516000	Three would be more convenient than two.
1516000	1522000	三点比两点方便一点.
1522000	1532000	Since I'm going out in a little while, I might not be able to get back by two.
1532000	1537000	因为我一会儿出去,也许两点回不来.
1537000	1542000	Three is fine too.
1542000	1546000	三点钟也好.
