- <p><span class="font9">The conference resolved to develop materials which were flexible enough in form and content to meet the requirements of a wide range of government agencies and academic institutions.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">A Project Board was established consisting of representatives of the Central Intelligence Agency Language Learning Center, the Defense Language Institute, the State Department’s Foreign Service Institute, the Cryptologic School of the National Security Agency, and the U.S. Office of Education, later Joined by the Canadian Forces Foreign Language School. The representatives have included Arthur T. McNeill, John Hopkins, and John Boag (CIA); Colonel John F. Elder III, Joseph C. Hutchinson, Ivy Gibian, and Major Bernard Muller-Thym (DLI); James R. Frith and John B. Ratliff III (FSI); Kazuo Shitama (NSA); Richard T. Thompson and Julia Petrov (OE); and Lieutenant Colonel George Kozoriz (CFFLS).</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">The Project Board set up the Chinese Core Curriculum Project in 197<sup>1</sup>* in space provided at the Foreign Service Institute. Each of the six U.S. and Canadian government agencies provided funds and other assistance.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">Gerard P. Kok was appointed project coordinator, and a planning council was formed consisting of Mr. Kok, Frances Li of the Defense Language Institute, Patricia O'Connor of the University of Texas, Earl M. Rickerson of the Language Learning Center, and James Wrenn of Brown University. In the fall of 1977* Lucille A. Barale was appointed deputy project coordinator. David W. Dellinger of the Language Learning Center and Charles R. Sheehan of the Foreign Service Institute also served on the planning council and contributed material to the project. The planning council drew up the original overall design for the materials and met regularly to review their development.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">Writers for the first half of the materials were John H. T. Harvey, Lucille A. Barale, and Roberta S. Barry, who worked in close cooperation with the planning council and with the Chinese staff of the Foreign Service Institute. Mr. Harvey developed the instructional formats of the comprehension and production self-study materials, and also designed the communication-based classroom activities and wrote the teacher’s guides. Lucille A. Barale and Roberta S. Barry wrote the tape scripts and the student text. By 1978 Thomas E. Madden and Susan C. Pola had Joined the staff. Led by Ms. Barale, they have worked as a team to produce the materials subsequent to Module 6.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">All Chinese language material was prepared or selected by Chuan 0. Chao, Ying-chi Chen, Hsiao-Jung Chi, Eva Diao, Jan Hu, Tsung-mi Li, and Yunhui C. Yang, assisted for part of the time by Chieh-fang Ou Lee, Ying-ming Chen, and Joseph Yu Hsu Wang. Anna Affholder, Mei-li Chen, and Henry Khuo helped in the preparation of a preliminary corpus of dialogues.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">Administrative assistance was provided at various times by Vincent Basciano, Lisa A. Bowden, Jill W. Ellis, Donna Fong, Renee T. C. Liang, Thomas E. Madden, Susan C. Pola, and Kathleen Strype.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">The production of tape recordings was directed by Jose M. Ramirez of the Foreign Service Institute Recording Studio. The Chinese script was voiced by Ms. Chao, Ms. Chen, Mr. Chen, Ms. Diao, Ms. Hu, Mr. Khuo, Mr. Li, and Ms. Yang. The English script was read by Ms. Barale, Ms. Barry, Mr. Basciano, Ms. Ellis, Ms. Pola, and Ms. Strype.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">The graphics were produced by John McClelland of the Foreign Service Institute Audio-Visual staff, under the general supervision of Joseph A. Sadote, Chief of Audio-Visual.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">Standard Chinese: A Modular Approach</span><span class="font9"> was field-tested with the cooperation of Brown University; the Defense Language Institute, Foreign Language Center; the Foreign Service Institute; the Language Learning Center; the United States Air Force Academy; the University of Illinois; and the University of Virginia.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">Colonel Samuel L. Stapleton and Colonel Thomas G. Foster, Commandants of the Defense Language Institute, Foreign Language Center, authorized the DLIFLC support necessary for preparation of this edition of the course materials. This support included coordination, graphic arts, editing, typing, proofreading, printing, and materials necessary to carry out these tasks.</span></p>

- <h4><a name="bookmark6"></a><span class="font1" style="font-weight:bold;"><a name="bookmark83"></a>SECTION I: ABOUT THE COURSE .</span></h4>
- <p><span class="font9">This course is designed to give you a practical command of spoken Standard Chinese. You will learn both to understand and to speak it. Although Standard Chinese is one language, there are differences between the particular form it takes in Beijing and the form it takes in the rest of the country. There are also, of course, significant nonlinguistic differences between regions of the country. Reflecting these regional differences, the settings for most conversations are Beijing and Taipei.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">This course represents a new approach to the teaching of foreign languages. In many ways it redefines the roles of teacher and student, of classwork and homework, and of text and tape. Here is what you should expect:</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">The focus is on communicating in Chinese in practical situations—the obvious ones you will encounter upon arriving in China. You will be communicating in Chinese most of the time you are in class. You will not always be talking about real situations, but you will almost always be purposefully exchanging information in Chinese.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">This focus on conimunicating means that the teacher is first of all your conversational partner. Anything that forces him<a name="footnote1"></a><sup><a href="#bookmark84">1</a></sup> back into the traditional roles of lecturer and drillmaster limits your opportunity to interact with a speaker of the Chinese language and to experience the language in its full spontaneity, flexibility, and responsiveness.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">Using class time for communicating, you will complete other course activities out of class whenever possible. This is what the tapes are for. They introduce the new material of each unit and give you as much additional practice as possible without a conversational partner.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">The texts summarize and supplement the tapes, which take you through new material step by step and then give you intensive practice on what you have covered. In this course you will spend almost all your time listening to Chinese and saying things in Chinese, either with the tapes or in class.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">How the Course Is Organized</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">The subtitle of this course, "A Modular Approach,” refers to overall organization of the materials into MODULES which focus on particular situations or language topics and which allow a certain amount of choice as to what is taught and in what order. To highlight equally significant features of the course, the subtitle could just as well have been "A Situational Approach," "A Taped-Input Approach," or "A Communicative Approach."</span></p>

- <p><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">Inside a Core Module</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">Each core module has from four to eight units. A module also includes</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">Objectives</span><span class="font9">: The module objectives are listed at the beginning of the text for each module. Read these before starting work on the first unit to fix in your mind what you are trying to accomplish and what you will have to do to pass the test at the end of the module.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">Target Lists</span><span class="font9">: These follow the objectives in the text. They summarize the language content of each unit in the form of typical questions and answers on the topic of that unit. Each sentence is given both in roman-ized Chinese and in English. Turn to the appropriate Target List before, during, or after your work on a unit, whenever you need to pull together what is in the unit.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">Review Tapes (R-l)</span><span class="font9">: The Target List sentences are given on these tapes. Except in the short Orientation Module, there are two R-l tapes for each module.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">Criterion Test</span><span class="font9">: After studying each module, you will take a Criterion Test to find out which module objectives you have met and which you need to work on before beginning to study another module.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">Inside a Unit</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">Here is what you will be doing in each unit. First, you will work through two tapes:</span></p>
- <ul style="list-style:none;"><li>
- <p><span class="font9">1.</span><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;"> Comprehension Tape 1 (C-l)</span><span class="font9">: This tape introduces all the new words and structures in the unit and lets you hear them in the context of short conversational exchanges. It then works them into other short conversations and longer passages for listening practice, and finally reviews them in the Target List sentences. Your goal when using the tape is to understand all the Target List sentences for the unit.</span></p></li>
- <li>
- <p><span class="font9">2.</span><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;"> Production Tape 1 (P-1)</span><span class="font9">: This tape gives you practice in pronouncing the new words and in saying the sentences you learned to understand on the C-l tape. Your goal when using the P-1 tape is to be able to produce any of the Target List sentences in Chine<sup>e</sup>? when given the English equivalent.</span></p></li></ul>
- <p><span class="font9">The C-l and P-1 tapes, not accompanied by workbooks, are "portable" in the sense that they do not tie you down to your desk. However, there are some written materials for each unit which you will need to work into your study routine. A text </span><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">Reference List</span><span class="font9"> at the beginning of each unit contains the sentences from the C-l and P-1 tapes. It includes both the Chinese sentences and their English equivalents. The text </span><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">Reference Notes</span><span class="font9"> restate and expand the comments made on the C-l and P-1 tapes concerning grammar, vocabulary, pronunciation, and culture.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">After you have worked with the C-l and P-1 tapes, you go on to two class activities:</span></p>
- <ul style="list-style:none;"><li>
- <p><span class="font9">3.</span><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;"> Target List Review</span><span class="font9">: In this first class activity of the unit, you find out how well you learned the C-l and P-1 sentences. The teacher checks your understanding and production of the Target List sentences. He also presents any additional required vocabulary items, found at the end of the Target List, which were not on the C-l and P-1 tapes.</span></p></li></ul>
- <ul style="list-style:none;"><li>
- <p><span class="font9">U. </span><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">Structural Buildup</span><span class="font9">: During this class activity, you work on your understanding and control of the new structures in the unit. You respond to questions from your teacher about situations illustrated on a chalkboard or explained in other ways.</span></p></li></ul>
- <p><span class="font9">After these activities, your teacher may want you to spend some time working on the drills for the unit.</span></p>
- <ul style="list-style:none;"><li>
- <p><span class="font9">5.</span><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;"> Drill Tape</span><span class="font9">: This tape takes you through various types of drills based on the Target List sentences and on the additional required vocabulary.</span></p></li>
- <li>
- <p><span class="font9">6.</span><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;"> Drills</span><span class="font9">: The teacher may have you go over some or all of the drills in class, either to prepare for work with the tape, to review the tape, or to replace it.</span></p></li></ul>
- <p><span class="font9">Next, you use two more tapes. These tapes will give you as much additional practice as possible outside of class.</span></p>
- <ul style="list-style:none;"><li>
- <p><span class="font9">7.</span><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;"> Comprehension Tape 2 (C-2)</span><span class="font9">: This tape provides advanced listening practice with exercises containing long, varied passages which fully exploit the possibilities of the material covered. In the C-2 Workbook you answer questions about the passages.</span></p></li>
- <li>
- <p><span class="font9">8.</span><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;"> Production Tape 2 (P-2)</span><span class="font9">: This tape resembles the Structural Buildup in that you practice using the new structures of the unit in various situations. The P-2 Workbook provides instructions and displays of information for each exercise.</span></p></li></ul>
- <p><span class="font9">Following work on these two tapes, you take part in two class activities:</span></p>
- <ul style="list-style:none;"><li>
- <p><span class="font9">9.</span><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;"> Exercise Review</span><span class="font9">: The teacher reviews the exercises of the C-2 tape by reading or playing passages from the tape and questioning you on them. He reviews the exercises of the P-2 tape by questioning you on information displays in the P-2 Workbook.</span></p></li>
- <li>
- <p><span class="font9">10.</span><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;"> Communication Activities</span><span class="font9">: Here you use what you have learned in the unit for the purposeful exchange of information. Both fictitious situations (in Communication Games) and real-world situations involving you and your classmates (in "interviews”) are used.</span></p>

- <p><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">The Chinese Languages</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">We find it perfectly natural to talk about a language called ’’Chinese. ’’ We say, for example, that the people of China speak different dialects of Chinese, and that Confucius wrote in an ancient form of Chinese. On the other hand, we would never think of saying that the people of Italy, France, Spain, and Portugal speak dialects of one language, and that Julius Caesar wrote in an ancient form of that language. But the facts are almost exactly parallel.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">Therefore, in terms of what we think of as a language when closer to home, ’’Chinese” is not one language, but a family of languages. The language of Confucius is partway up the trunk of the family tree. Like Latin, it lived on as a literary language long after its death as a spoken language in popular use. The seven modern languages of China, traditionally known as the "dialects," are the branches of the tree. They share as strong a family resemblance as do Italian, French, Spanish, and Portuguese, and are about as different from one another.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">The predominant language of China is now known as </span><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">Putonghua</span><span class="font9">, or "Standard Chinese" (literally "the common speech"). The more traditional term, still used in Taiwan, is </span><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">Guoyǔ</span><span class="font9">, or "Mandarin" (literally "the national language"). Standard Chinese is spoken natively by almost two-thirds of the population of China and throughout the greater part of the country.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">The term "Standard Chinese" is often used more narrowly to refer to the true national language which is emerging. This language, which is already the language of all national broadcasting, is based primarily on the 'Peking dialect, but takes in elements from other dialects of Standard Chinese and even from other Chinese languages. Like many national languages, it is more widely understood than spoken, and is often spoken with some concessions to local speech, particularly in pronunciation.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">The Chinese languages and their dialects differ far more in pronunciation than in grammar and vocabulary. What distinguishes Standard Chinese most from the other Chinese languages, for example, is that it has the fewest tones and the fewest final consonants.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">The remaining six Chinese languages, spoken by approximately a quarter of the population of China, are tightly grouped in the southeast, below the Yangtze River. The six are: the Wu group (Wu), which includes the "Shanghai dialect"; Hunanese (</span><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">Xiāng</span><span class="font9">); the "Kiangsi dialect" (Gan); Cantonese (</span><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">Yuè</span><span class="font9">), the language of Guāngdōng, widely spoken in Chinese communities in the United States; Fukienese (</span><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">Min</span><span class="font9">), a variant of which is spoken by a majority on Taiwan and hence called Taiwanese; and Hakka (</span><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">Kèjiā</span><span class="font9">). spoken in a belt above the Cantonese area, as well as by a minority on Taiwan. Cantonese, Fukienese, and Hakka are also widely spoken throughout Southeast Asia.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">There are minority ethnic groups in China who speak non-Chinese languages. Some of these, such as Tibetan, are distantly related to the Chinese languages. Others, such as Mongolian, are entirely unrelated.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">Some Characteristics of Chinese</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">To us, perhaps the most striking feature of spoken Chinese is the use of variation in tone ("tones") to distinguish the different meanings of syllables which would otherwise sound alike. All languages, and Chinese is no exception, make use of sentence intonation to indicate how whole sentences are to be understood. In English, for example, the rising pattern in "He’s gone?" tells us that the sentence is meant as a question. The Chinese tones, however, are quite a different matter. They belong to individual syllables, not to the sentence as a whole. An inherent part of each Standard Chinese syllable is one of four distinctive tones. The tone does just as much to distinguish the syllable as do the consonants and vowels. For example, the only difference between the verb "to buy," </span><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">m&i, </span><span class="font9">and the verb "to sell," </span><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">mài</span><span class="font9">, is the Low tone (<sup>w</sup>) and the Falling tone (-). And yet these words are just as distinguishable as our words "buy" and "guy," or "buy" and "boy." Apart from the tones, the sound system of Standard Chinese is no more different from English than French is.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">Word formation in Standard Chinese is relatively simple. For one thing, there are no conjugations such as are found in many European languages. Chinese verbs have fewer forms than English verbs, and nowhere near as many irregularities. Chinese grammar relies heavily on word order and often the word order is the same as in English. For these reasons Chinese is not as difficult for Americans to learn to speak as one might think.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">It is often said that Chinese is a monosyllabic language. This notion contains a good deal of truth. It has been found that, on the average, every other word in ordinary conversation is a single-syllable word. Moreover, although most words in the dictionary have two syllables, and some have more, these words can almost always be broken down into singlesyllable units of meaning, many of which can stand alone as words.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">Written Chinese</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">Most languages with which we are familiar are written with an alphabet. The letters may be different from ours, as in the Greek alphabet, but the principle is the same: one letter for each consonant or vowel sound, more or less. Chinese, however, is written with "characters" which stand for whole syllables—in fact, for whole syllables with particular meanings. Although there are only about thirteen hundred phonetically distitìct syllables in standard Chinese, there are several thousand Chinese characters in everyday use, essentially one for each single-syllable unit of meaning. This means that many words have the same pronunciation but are written with different characters, as </span><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">tiān,</span><span class="font9"> "sky," X, and </span><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">tiān,</span><span class="font9"> "to add," "to increase,"</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">Chinese characters are often referred to as "ideographs," which suggests that they stand directly for ideas. But this is misleading. It is better to think of them as standing for the meaningful syllables of the spoken language.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">Minimal literacy in Chinese calls for knowing about a thousand characters. These thousand characters, in combination, give a reading vocabulary of several thousand words. Full literacy calls for knowing some three thousand characters. In order to reduce the amount of time needed to learn characters, there has been a vast extension in the People’s Republic of China (PRC) of the principle of character simplification, which has reduced the average number of strokes per character by half.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">During the past century, various systems have been proposed for representing the sounds of Chinese with letters of the Roman alphabet. One of these romanizations, </span><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">Hànyu Pinyin</span><span class="font9"> (literally "Chinese Language Spelling," generally called "Pinyin" in English), has been adopted officially in the PRC, with the short-term goal of teaching all students the Standard Chinese pronunciation of characters. A long-range goal is the use of Pinyin for written communication throughout the country. This is not possible, of course, until speakers across the nation have uniform pronunciations of Standard Chinese. For the time being, characters, which represent meaning, not pronunciation, are still the most widely accepted way of communicating in writing.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">Pinyin uses all of the letters in our alphabet except v, and adds the letter u. The spellings of some of the consonant sounds are rather arbitrary from our point of view, but for every consonant sound there is only one letter or one combination of letters, and vice versa. You will find that each vowel letter can stand for different vowel sounds, depending on what letters precede or follow it in the syllable. The four tones are indicated by accent marks over the vowels, and the Neutral tone by the absence of an accent mark:</span></p>
- <p><a href="#bookmark88"><span class="font9">High: </span><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">mā</span><span class="font9"> Falling:</span></a></p>
- <p><a href="#bookmark89"><span class="font9">Rising: </span><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">ma</span><span class="font9"> Neutral:</span></a></p>
- <p><a href="#bookmark90"><span class="font9">Low:</span></a></p>
- <p><span class="font9">One reason often given for the retention of characters is that they can be read, with the local pronunciation, by speakers of all the Chinese languages. Probably a stronger reason for retaining them is that the characters help keep alive distinctions of meaning between words, and connections of meaning between words, which are fading in the spoken language. On the other hand, a Cantonese could learn to speak Standard Chinese, and read it alphabetically, at least as easily as he can learn several thousand characters.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">Pinyin is used throughout this course to provide a simple written representation of pronunciation. The characters, which are chiefly responsible for the reputation of Chinese as a difficult language, are taught separately.</span></p>
- <h4><a name="bookmark91"></a><span class="font1" style="font-weight:bold;"><a name="bookmark92"></a>BACKGROUND NOTES: ABOUT CHINESE CHARACTERS</span></h4>
- <p><span class="font9">Each Chinese character is written as a fixed sequence of strokes. There are very few basic types of strokes, each with its own prescribed direction, length, and contour. The dynamics of these strokes as written with a brush, the classical writing instrument, show up clearly even in printed characters. You can tell from the varying thickness of the stroke how the brush met the paper, how it swooped, and how it lifted; these effects are largely lost in characters written with a ball-point pen.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">The sequence of strokes is of particular importance. Let’s take the character for "mouth," pronounced </span><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">kou</span><span class="font9">. Here it is as normally written, with the order and directions of the strokes indicated.</span></p><img src="FSI-StandardChinese-Module01ORN-StudentText_files/FSI-StandardChinese-Module01ORN-StudentText-8.png" alt="" style="width:66pt;height:60pt;">
- <p><span class="font9">If the character is written rapidly, in "running-style writing," one stroke glides into the next, like this.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">If the strokes were written in any but the proper order, quite different distortions would take place as each stroke reflected the last and anticipated the next, and the character would be illegible.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">The earliest surviving Chinese characters, inscribed on the Shang Dynasty "oracle bones" of about 1500 B.C., already included characters that went beyond simple pictorial representation. There are some characters in use today which are pictorial, like the character for "mouth." There are also some which are directly symbolic, like our Roman numerals I, II, and III. (The characters for these numbers—the first numbers you learn in this course—are like the Roman numerals turned on their sides.) There are some which are indirectly symbolic, like our Arabic numerals 1, </span><span class="font9" style="font-style:italic;">2,</span><span class="font9"> and 3. But the most common type of character is complex, consisting of two parts: a "phonetic," which suggests the pronunciation, and a "radical," which broadly characterizes the meaning. Let’s take the following character as an example.</span></p><img src="FSI-StandardChinese-Module01ORN-StudentText_files/FSI-StandardChinese-Module01ORN-StudentText-9.png" alt="" style="width:59pt;height:69pt;">
- <p><span class="font9">This character means "ocean" and is pronounced </span><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">yang</span><span class="font9">. The left side of the character, the three short strokes, is an abbreviation of a character which means "water" and is pronounced </span><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">shul</span><span class="font9">. This is the "radical." It has been borrowed only for its meaning, "water." The right side of the character above is a character which means "sheep" and is pronounced </span><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">yang</span><span class="font9">. This is the "phonetic." It has been borrowed only for its sound value, </span><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">yang</span><span class="font9">. A speaker of Chinese encountering the above character for the first time could probably figure out that the only Chinese word that sounds like </span><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">yang </span><span class="font9">and means something like "water" is the word </span><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">yang</span><span class="font9"> meaning "ocean." We, as speakers of English, might not be able to figure it out. Moreover, phonetics and radicals seldom work as neatly as in this example. But we can still learn to make good use of these hints at sound and sense.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">Many dictionaries classify characters in terms of the radicals. According to one of the two dictionary systems used, there are 1?6 radicals; in the other system, there are 21U. There are over a thousand phonetics.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">Chinese has traditionally been written vertically, from top to bottom of the page, starting on the right-hand side, with the pages bound so that the first page is where we would expect the last page to be. Nowadays, however, many Chinese publications paginate like Western publications, and the characters are written horizontally, from left to right.</span></p>
- <h4><a name="bookmark93"></a><span class="font1" style="font-weight:bold;"><a name="bookmark94"></a>BACKGROUND NOTES: ABOUT CHINESE PERSONAL NAMES AND TITLES</span></h4>
- <p><span class="font9">A Chinese personal name consists of two parts: a surname and a given name. There is no middle name. The order is the reverse of ours: surname first, given name last.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">The most common pattern for Chinese names is a single-syllable surname followed by a two-syllable given name:<a name="footnote2"></a><sup><a href="#bookmark95">2</a></sup></span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">Mao Zedong (Mao Tse-tung)</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">Zhōu Ēnlái (Chou En-lai)</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">Jiang Jièshí (Chiang Kai-shek)</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">Song Qìnglíng (Soong Ch’ing-ling—Mme Sun Yat-sen)</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">Song Měilíng (Soong Mei-ling—Mme Chiang Kai-shek)</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">It is not uncommon, however, for the given name to consist of a single syllable:</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">Zhū De (Chu Teh)</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">Lin Biāo (Lin Piao)</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">Hú Shi (Hu Shih)</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">Jiāng Qīng (Chiang Ch’ing—Mme Mao Tse-tung)</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">There are a few two-syllable surnames. These are usually followed by single-syllable given names:</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">Sīmǎ Guāng (Ssu-ma Kuang) Ōuyáng Xiū (Ou-yang Hsiu) ZhūgS Liang (Chu-ke Liang)</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">But two-syllable surnames may also be followed by two-syllable given names:</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">Sīmǎ Xiāngrú (Ssu-ma Hsiang-Ju)</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">An exhaustive list of Chinese surnames includes several hundred written with a single character and several dozen written with two characters. Some single-syllable surnames sound exactly alike although written with different characters, and to distinguish them, the Chinese may occasionally have to describe the character or "write" it with a finger on the palm of a hand. But the surnames that you are likely to encounter are fewer than a hundred, and a handful of these are so common that they account for a good majority of China’s population.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">Given names, as opposed to surnames, are not restricted to a limited list of characters. Men's names are often but not always distinguishable from women’s; the difference, however, usually lies in the meaning of the characters and so is not readily apparent to the beginning student with a limited knowledge of characters.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">Outside the People’s Republic the traditional system of titles is still in use. These titles closely parallel our own "Mr.," "Mrs.," and "Miss." Notice, however, that all Chinese titles follow the name—either the full name or the surname alone—rather than preceding it.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">The title "Mr." is </span><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">Xiānsheng</span><span class="font9">.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">MS Xiānsheng</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">JIS Mínglī Xiānsheng</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">The title "Mrs." is </span><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">Tàitai</span><span class="font9">. It follows the husband’s full name or surname alone.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">MS Tàitai</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">MS Mínglī Tàitai</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">The title "Miss" is </span><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">Xiǎojiě</span><span class="font9">. The MS family’s grown daughter, Défēn, would be</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">MS XiSojiě</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">Mǎ Défēn XiSojiě</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">Even traditionally, outside the People’s Republic, a married woman does not take her husband’s name in the same sense as in our culture. If Miss Fāng Bǎolán marries Mr. MS Mínglī, she becomes Mrs. MS Mínglī, but at the same time she remains Fāng BSolán. She does not become MS BSolán; there is no equivalent of "Mrs. Mary Smith." She may, however, add her husband’s surname to her own full name and refer to herself as MS Fāng Bǎolán. At work she is quite likely to continue as Miss Fāng.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">These customs regarding names are still observed by many Chinese today in various parts of the world. The titles carry certain connotations, however, when used in the PRC today: </span><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">Tàitai</span><span class="font9"> should not be used because it designates that woman as a member of the leisure class. </span><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">XiSojiě</span><span class="font9"> should not be used because it carries the connotation of being from a rich family.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">In the People’s Republic, the title "Comrade," </span><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">Tóngzhì</span><span class="font9">, is used in place of the titles </span><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">Xiānsheng</span><span class="font9">, </span><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">Tàitai</span><span class="font9">, and </span><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">XiSojiě</span><span class="font9">. MS Mínglī would be</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">MS Tóngzhì</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">MS Mínglī Tóngzhì</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">The title ’’Comrade" is applied to all, regardless of sex or marital status. A married'-woman does not take her husband’s name in any sense. MS Mínglī’s wife would be</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">Fāng Tóngzhì</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">Fāng Bǎolán Tóngzhì</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">Children may be given either the mother’s or the father’s surname at birth. In some families one child has the father's surname, and another child has the mother’s surname. MS Mínglī’s and Fāng Bǎolán*s grown daughter could be</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">MS Tóngzhì</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">MS Défēn Tóngzhì</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">Their grown son could be</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">Fāng Tóngzhì</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">Fāng Zìqiáng Tóngzhì</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">Both in the PRC and elsewhere, of course, there are official titles and titles of respect in addition to the common titles we have discussed here. Several of these will be introduced later in the course.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">The question of adapting foreign names to Chinese calls for special consideration. In the People’s Republic the policy is to assign Chinese phonetic equivalents to foreign names. These approximations are often not as close phonetically as they might be, since the choice of appropriate written characters may bring in nonphonetic considerations. (An attempt is usually made when transliterating to use characters with attractive meanings.) For the most part, the resulting names do not at all resemble Chinese names. For example, the official version of "David Anderson" is Dàiwéi Āndésēn.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">An older approach, still in use outside the PRC, is to construct a valid Chinese name that suggests the foreign name phonetically. For example, "David Anderson" might be in Dàwèi.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">Sometimes, when a foreign surname has the same meaning as a Chinese surname, semantic suggestiveness is chosen over phonetic suggestiveness. For example, </span><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">Wáng</span><span class="font9">, a common Chinese surname, means "king," so "Daniel King" might be rendered Wáng Dànián.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">Students in this course will be given both the official PRC phonetic equivalents of their names and Chinese-style names.</span></p>
- <h2><a name="bookmark96"></a><span class="font4" style="font-weight:bold;"><a name="bookmark97"></a>MODULE 1: ORIENTATION</span></h2>
- <p><span class="font9">The Orientation Module and associated resource modules provide the linguistic tools needed to begin the study of Chinese. The materials also introduce the teaching procedures used in this course.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">The Orientation Module is not a typical course module in several respects. First, it does not have a situational topic of its own, but rather leads into the situational topic of the following module—Biographic Information. Second, it teaches only a little Chinese grammar and vocabulary. Third, two of the associated resource modules (Pronunciation and Romanization, Numbers) are not optional; together with the Orientation Module, they are prerequisite to the rest of the course.</span></p>

- <p><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">Materials You Will Need </span><span class="font9">1. The C-l and P-1 tapes, the Reference List and Reference Notes.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">2. The drill tape (1D-1).</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">About the C-l and P-1 Tapes</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">The C-l and P-1 tapes are your introduction to the Chinese words and structures presented in each unit. The tapes give you explanations and practice on the new material. By the time you have worked through these two tapes, you will be competent in understanding and producing the expressions introduced in the unit.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">With the C-l tape, you learn to understand the new words and structures. The material is presented in short conversational exchanges, first with English translations and later with pauses which allow you to translate. Try to give a complete English translation for each Chinese expression. Your goal when using the C-l tape is to learn the meanings of all the words and structures as they are used in the sentences.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">With the P-1 tape, you learn to put together these sentences. You learn to pronounce each new word and use each new structure. When the recorded instructions direct you to pronounce a word or say a sentence, do so out loud. It is important fop you to hear yourself speaking Chinese, so that you will know whether you are pronouncing the words correctly. Making the effort to say the expression is a big part of learning it. It is one thing to think about how a sentence should be put together or how it should sound. It is another thing to put it together that way or make it sound that way. Your goal when using the P-1 tape is to produce the Target List expressions in Chinese when given English equivalents. At the end of each P-1 tape is a review of the Target List which you can go over until you have mastered the expressions.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">At times, you may feel that the material on a tape is being presented too fast. You may find that there is not enough time allowed for working out the meaning of a sentence or saying a sentence the way you want to. When this happens, stop the tape. If you want to, rewind.' Use the control buttons on your machine to make the tape manageable for you and to get the most out of it.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">About the Reference List and the Reference Notes</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">The Reference List and the Reference Notes are designed to be used before, during, or directly after work with the C-l and P-1 tapes.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">The Reference List is a summary of the C-l and P-1 tapes. It contains all sentences which introduce new material, showing you both the Chinese sentences written in romanization and their English equivalents. You will find that the list is printed so that either the Chinese or the English can be covered to allow you to test yourself on comprehension, production, or romanization of the sentences.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">The Reference Notes give you information about grammar, pronunciation, and cultural usage. Some of these explanations duplicate what you hear on the C-l and P-1 tapes. Other explanations contain new information.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">You may use the Reference List and Reference Notes in various ways. For example, you may follow the Reference Notes as you listen to a tape, glancing at an exchange or stopping to read a comment whenever you want to. Or you may look through the Reference Notes before listening to a tape, and then use the Reference List while you listen, to help you keep track of where you are. Whichever way you decide to use these parts of a unit, remember that they are reference materials. Don’t rely on the translations and romanizations as subtitles for the C-l tape or as cue cards for the P-1 tape, for this would rob you of your chance to develop listening and responding skills.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">About the Drills</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">The drills help you develop fluency, ease of response, and confidence. You can go through the drills on your own, with the drill tapes, and the teacher may take you through them in class as well.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">Allow more than half an hour for a half-hour drill tape, since you will usually need to go over all or parts of the tape more than once to get full benefit from it.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">The drills include many personal names, providing you with valuable pronunciation practice. However, if you find the names more than you can handle the first time through the tape, replace them with the pronoun </span><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">tā </span><span class="font9">whenever possible. Similar substitutions are often possible with place names.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">Some of the drills involve sentences which you may find too long to understand or produce on your first try, and you will need to rewind for another try. Often, particularly the first time through a tape, you will find the pauses too short, and you will need to stop the tape to give yourself more time. The performance you should aim for with these tapes, however, is full comprehension and full, fluent, and accurate production while the tape rolls.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">The five basic types of drills are described below.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">Substitution Drills</span><span class="font9">; The teacher (T) gives a pattern sentence which the student (S) repeats. Then the teacher gives a word or phrase (a </span><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">cue</span><span class="font9">) which the student substitutes appropriately in the original sentence. The teacher follows immediately with a new cue.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">Here is an English example of a substitution drill:</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">T: Are you an American?</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">S: Are you an American?</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">T: (</span><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">cue</span><span class="font9">) English</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">S: Are you English?</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">T: (</span><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">cue</span><span class="font9">) French</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">S: Are you French?</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">Transformation Drills</span><span class="font9">: On the basis of a model provided at the beginning of the drill, the student makes a certain change in each sentence the teacher says.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">Here is an English example of a transformation drill, in which the student is changing affirmative sentences into negative ones: '</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">T: I’m going to the bank.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">S: I’m not going to the bank.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">T: I’m going to the store.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">S: I’m not going to the store.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">Response Drills</span><span class="font9">: On the basis of a model given at the beginning of the drill, the student responds to questions or remarks by the teacher as cued by the teacher.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">Here is an English example of-a response drill:</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">T: What is his name? (</span><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">cue</span><span class="font9">) Harris</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">S: His name is Harris.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">T: What is her name? (</span><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">cue</span><span class="font9">) Noss</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">S: Her name is Noss.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">Expansion Drills</span><span class="font9">: The student adds something to a pattern sentence as cued by the teacher.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">Here is an English example of an expansion drill</span></p>
- <div>
- <p><span class="font9">(</span><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">cue</span><span class="font9">) Japanese He's Japanese.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">(</span><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">cue</span><span class="font9">) French She's French.</span></p>
- </div><br clear="all">
- <p><span class="font9">T: He isn’t Chinese. S: He isn't Chinese. T: She isn’t German. S: She isn’t German.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">Combination Drills</span><span class="font9">: On the basis of a model given at the beginning of the drill, the student combines two phrases or sentences given by the teacher into a single utterance.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">Here is an English example of a combination drill:</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">T: I am reading a book. John gave me the book.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">S: I am reading a book which John gave me.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">T: Mary bought a picture. I like the picture.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">S: Mary bought a picture which I like.</span></p>

When followed by a syllable with a High, Rising, or Low tone, a Falling tone is used (bù). When followed by a syllable with a Falling or Neutral tone, a Rising tone is used (bú).</span></p>

That is the form the syllable takes when it stands alone as a short "no” answer—</span><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">Bù</span><span class="font9">— and when it is discussed, as in "Bù means 'not'.”</span></p>

- <p><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">Names</span><span class="font9">: In the People’s Republic, a foreigner is known by the standard phonetic equivalent of his full name. His given name is followed by his surname, which is followed by the appropriate title. Mr. David Anderson will be called </span><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">Dàiwéi Āndésēn Xiānsheng</span><span class="font9">. In Taiwan, there is no set way of giving names to foreigners. Sometimes, as in the PRC, a phonetic equivalent of the full name is used (though there are no standard versions). Sometimes, the equivalent is based entirely on the surname. Mr. Anderson, for instance, might be </span><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">Ān Désēn Xiānsheng</span><span class="font9">. The surname may also be translated, as when "King" is translated into </span><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">Wáng</span><span class="font9">. It is also common to base the Chinese surname on the first syllable of the original surname, and the Chinese given name on something else (often the original given name). In Taiwan, </span><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">Dàwèi</span><span class="font9"> is a common phonetic equivalent for "David." "Mr. David Anderson," therefore, might be </span><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">Ān Dàwèi Xiānsheng</span><span class="font9">. Here is a chart of SOME of the Chinese names that might be given to Mr. David Anderson.</span></p>

- <p><span class="font9">The purpose of the Criterion Test at the end of each module is to show you not only how much of the material you have learned, hut also what points you need to work on before beginning to study smother module.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">Since the primary goal of ORN is to introduce the sound system of Standard Chinese, this test focuses on your ability to discriminate and produce tones, vowels, and consonants. Additionally, there are sections which test your ability to comprehend and produce numbers from 1 through 99 and the material in the ORN Target Lists. Your knowledge of personal names and titles and the romanization system is also tested. Read the Objectives at the beginning of the module for a description of exactly what the test covers. Note: Although the entire sound system is introduced in the Pronunciation and Romanization Module, you will be tested here only on those sounds which occur in the Target Sentences. Other sounds will be included in Criterion Tests for later modules.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">Following is a sample of the Criterion Test for this module. Each section of the test, with directions and a sample question, is represented here so that you may know exactly what is expected of you after studying the ORN Module.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">Minimum scores are suggested for each section of the test. Achieving thesescores means that you are adequately prepared for the next module. If you fall below the minimum criterion on any section, you should review relevant study materials.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">You will use a tape to complete Part I of the test. Part II is written, and you will complete Part III with your instructor. Part IV of the test (Diagnostics) indicates the passing score for each section and review materials for each section.</span></p>

- <p><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">Part I</span></p>
- <ul style="list-style:none;"><li>
- <p><span class="font9">1. This section tests your ability to distinguish the four tones. In your test booklet you will see two syllables after each letter. The speaker will pronounce both syllables, and then say one of them again. You are to decide which syllable was repeated, and circle the appropriate one to indicate your choice. The syllables may occur in any of the four tones, regardless of which tone was used previously in the module. The same syllable may occur more than once in this section.</span></p></li></ul>
- <p><span class="font9">For example, the speaker might say. </span><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">fēi</span><span class="font9">...</span><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">fSi</span><span class="font9"> and then repeat </span><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">fēi</span><span class="font9">.</span></p>
- <ul style="list-style:none;"><li>
- <p><span class="font9">2. This section tests your ability to recognize the four tones in isolated syllables. The speaker will pronounce a syllable twice; you add to the written syllable the tone that you hear. Again, the syllables may occur in any of the four tones, regardless of which tone was used previously in the module.</span></p></li></ul>
- <p><span class="font9">For example, the speaker might say: </span><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">fěi</span><span class="font9">...</span><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">fSi</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">a.</span></p>
- <ul style="list-style:none;"><li>
- <p><span class="font9">3. This section tests your ability to recognize the four tones in two-syllable combinations. The speaker pronounces each two-syllable item twice and then pauses a moment for you to mark tones on the written syllables. For the first ten items, one of the two tones is already marked. For the last ten items, you must fill in both tones.</span></p></li></ul>
- <p><span class="font9">For example, the speaker might say: </span><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">chábei</span><span class="font9">...</span><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">chábei</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">chabei</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">U. In this section, you are tested on syllables which differ minimally in sound. The speaker will pronounce each syllable in an item once; then he will pronounce one of the syllables again. Decide which of the syllables was repeated, and indicate your choice by circling that written syllable in your test booklet. The syllables in this test do not necessarily correspond in every way to syllables in the Target Lists. They may vary in tone, for example.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">For example, the speaker might say: </span><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">fan</span><span class="font9">...</span><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">fang</span><span class="font9"> and then repeat </span><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">fang</span><span class="font9">.</span></p>

- <ul style="list-style:none;"><li>
- <p><span class="font9">5. In this section, you complete the romanization for the syllables that you hear. As the speaker says a syllable, write the appropriate vowel or consonant letter(s) in the blank. This tests your ability to recognize the sounds of a syllable and to use the romanization system correctly. The speaker will say each syllable twice.</span></p></li></ul>
- <p><span class="font9">For example, the speaker might say: </span><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">pang</span><span class="font9">...</span><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">pang</span><span class="font9">; then you would write</span></p><img src="FSI-StandardChinese-Module01ORN-StudentText_files/FSI-StandardChinese-Module01ORN-StudentText-13.png" alt="" style="width:65pt;height:22pt;">
- <ul style="list-style:none;"><li>
- <p><span class="font9">6. This section tests your ability to understand the numbers 1 through 99 in Chinese. For each item, the speaker will say a number, and you write down the numerals for that number.</span></p></li></ul>
- <p><span class="font9">For example, you might hear: </span><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">shí-sān</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">a- ____</span></p>
- <ul style="list-style:none;"><li>
- <p><span class="font9">7. This section tests your ability to understand questions and answers about where someone is from and where he is now. Listen to a conversation between Mr. Johnson and Comrade Zhao, who have Just met. You will hear the conversation three times. The third time you hear it, a pause will follow each line. You may use these pauses to fill in the boxes in your booklet with appropriate information. (You do not have to wait for the second repetition of the conversation to. fill in the answers, of course.)</span></p></li></ul>
- <p><span class="font9">For example: CYou will hear a conversation similar to conversations you heard on the C-2 tapes in this module.!</span></p>

- <p><span class="font9">8. This section tests your ability to comprehend Chinese utterances by asking you for the English equivalents. For each item, the speaker will say a sentence from the Target List twice. You indicate your understanding of the sentence by circling the letter of the English sentence which most closely matches the meaning of the Chinese sentence.</span></p></li></ul>
- <p><span class="font9">For example, you might hear: </span><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">Nī shi shéi</span><span class="font9">?...</span><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">Nī shi shéi</span><span class="font9">?</span></p>

- <p><span class="font9">For example,</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">Yang TÍngfèng is the Chinese name used by an American, Timothy Young, now that he is living in Taipei. His Chinese surname is:</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">1. </span><span class="font9" style="font-style:italic;">(a}</span><span class="font9"> Yang b. Tíngfēng c. Yang Tíngfēng</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">Part III</span></p>
- <ul style="list-style:none;"><li>
- <p><span class="font9">10. This section tests your ability to pronounce the four tones. Simple sound combinations have been chosen so that special attention may be given to tone production. For each item, choose one syllable and read it aloud. As you do so, put a circle around the one you choose. The instructor will note the syllable he hears. Be sure to choose a fair sampling of all four tones, and select them in random order.</span></p></li></ul>
- <p><span class="font9">For example, you might say: ma</span></p>
- <ul style="list-style:none;"><li>
- <p><span class="font9">11. This section tests your ability to pronounce Chinese sounds from the Target Lists, as well as your ability to read romanization. For each item, choose one syllable and read it aloud. As you do so, put a circle around the one you choose. The instructor will note the syllable he hears. Be sure to choose syllables from each column as you go through this section of the test.</span></p></li></ul>
- <p><span class="font9">For example, you might say: </span><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">nín</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">a. (nín</span></p>
- <ul style="list-style:none;"><li>
- <p><span class="font9">12. This section tests your ability to locate and name main cities and provinces in China. Using the map in your booklet, point out to your instructor five cities and five provinces and name them. Pronunciation is of secondary importance here.</span></p></li>
- <li>
- <p><span class="font9">13- This section tests your ability to produce sentences in Chinese. Your instructor will say an English sentence from the Target Lists, and you translate it into Chinese. Your Chinese sentence must be correct both in grammar and in content.</span></p></li></ul>
- <p><span class="font9">1U. This section tests your ability to make conversational use of the material covered in this module. Although limited in scope, this conversation between you and your instructor represents a situation which you are likely to encounter in the real world. As in any conversation, you are free to ask for a repetition or rephrasing of a sentence, or you may volunteer information on the subject. It is not so much the correctness of your pronunciation and grammar that is being tested as it is your ability to communicate effectively.</span></p>

- <p><span class="font1" style="font-weight:bold;">PREFACE</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">Standard Chinese: A Modular Approach</span><span class="font9"> originated in an interagency conference held at the Foreign Service Institute in August 1973 to address the need generally felt in the U.S. Government language training community for improving and updating Chinese materials, to reflect current usage in Beijing and Taipei.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">The conference resolved to develop materials which were flexible enough in form and content to meet the requirements of a wide range of government agencies and academic institutions.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">A Project Board was established consisting of representatives of the Central Intelligence Agency Language Learning Center, the Defense Language Institute, the State Department’s Foreign Service Institute, the Cryptologic School of the National Security Agency, and the U.S. Office of Education, later Joined by the Canadian Forces Foreign Language School. The representatives have included Arthur T. McNeill, John Hopkins, and John Boag (CIA); Colonel John F. Elder III, Joseph C. Hutchinson, Ivy Gibian, and Major Bernard Muller-Thym (DLI); James R.

Kok was appointed project coordinator, and a planning council was formed consisting of Mr. Kok, Frances Li of the Defense Language Institute, Patricia O'Connor of the University of Texas, Earl M. Rickerson of the Language Learning Center, and James Wrenn of Brown University. In the fall of 1977* Lucille A. Barale was appointed deputy project coordinator. David W. Dellinger of the Language Learning Center and Charles R. Sheehan of the Foreign Service Institute also served on the planning council and contributed material to the project. The planning council drew up the original overall design for the materials and met regularly to review their development.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">Writers for the first half of the materials were John H. T. Harvey, Lucille A. Barale, and Roberta S. Barry, who worked in close cooperation with the planning council and with the Chinese staff of the Foreign Service Institute. Mr. Harvey developed the instructional formats of the comprehension and production self-study materials, and also designed the communication-based classroom activities and wrote the teacher’s guides. Lucille A. Barale and Roberta S. Barry wrote the tape scripts and the student text. By 1978 Thomas E. Madden and Susan C. Pola had Joined the staff. Led by Ms. Barale, they have worked as a team to produce the materials subsequent to Module 6.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">All Chinese language material was prepared or selected by Chuan 0. Chao, Ying-chi Chen, Hsiao-Jung Chi, Eva Diao, Jan Hu, Tsung-mi Li, and Yunhui C. Yang, assisted for part of the time by Chieh-fang Ou Lee, Ying-ming Chen, and Joseph Yu Hsu Wang. Anna Affholder, Mei-li Chen, and Henry Khuo helped in the preparation of a preliminary corpus of dialogues.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">Administrative assistance was provided at various times by Vincent Basciano, Lisa A. Bowden, Jill W. Ellis, Donna Fong, Renee T. C. Liang, Thomas E. Madden, Susan C. Pola, and Kathleen Strype.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">The production of tape recordings was directed by Jose M. Ramirez of the Foreign Service Institute Recording Studio. The Chinese script was voiced by Ms. Chao, Ms. Chen, Mr. Chen, Ms. Diao, Ms. Hu, Mr. Khuo, Mr. Li, and Ms. Yang. The English script was read by Ms. Barale, Ms. Barry, Mr. Basciano, Ms. Ellis, Ms. Pola, and Ms. Strype.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">The graphics were produced by John McClelland of the Foreign Service Institute Audio-Visual staff, under the general supervision of Joseph A. Sadote, Chief of Audio-Visual.</span></p>

- <p><span class="font1" style="font-weight:bold;">INTRODUCTION</span></p>
- <h3><a name="bookmark154"></a><span class="font1" style="font-weight:bold;"><a name="bookmark229"></a>SECTION I: ABOUT THE COURSE .</span></h3>
- <p><span class="font9">This course is designed to give you a practical command of spoken Standard Chinese. You will learn both to understand and to speak it. Although Standard Chinese is one language, there are differences between the particular form it takes in Beijing and the form it takes in the rest of the country. There are also, of course, significant nonlinguistic differences between regions of the country. Reflecting these regional differences, the settings for most conversations are Beijing and Taipei.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">This course represents a new approach to the teaching of foreign languages. In many ways it redefines the roles of teacher and student, of classwork and homework, and of text and tape. Here is what you should expect:</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">The focus is on communicating in Chinese in practical situations—the obvious ones you will encounter upon arriving in China. You will be communicating in Chinese most of the time you are in class. You will not always be talking about real situations, but you will almost always be purposefully exchanging information in Chinese.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">This focus on conimunicating means that the teacher is first of all your conversational partner. Anything that forces him<a name="footnote6"></a><sup><a href="#bookmark230">6</a></sup> back into the traditional roles of lecturer and drillmaster limits your opportunity to interact with a speaker of the Chinese language and to experience the language in its full spontaneity, flexibility, and responsiveness.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">Using class time for communicating, you will complete other course activities out of class whenever possible. This is what the tapes are for. They introduce the new material of each unit and give you as much additional practice as possible without a conversational partner.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">The texts summarize and supplement the tapes, which take you through new material step by step and then give you intensive practice on what you have covered. In this course you will spend almost all your time listening to Chinese and saying things in Chinese, either with the tapes or in class.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">How the Course Is Organized</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">The subtitle of this course, "A Modular Approach,” refers to overall organization of the materials into MODULES which focus on particular situations or language topics and which allow a certain amount of choice as to what is taught and in what order. To highlight equally significant features of the course, the subtitle could just as well have been "A Situational Approach," "A Taped-Input Approach," or "A Communicative Approach."</span></p>

- <p><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">Inside a Core Module</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">Each core module has from four to eight units. A module also includes</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">Objectives</span><span class="font9">: The module objectives are listed at the beginning of the text for each module. Read these before starting work on the first unit to fix in your mind what you are trying to accomplish and what you will have to do to pass the test at the end of the module.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">Target Lists</span><span class="font9">: These follow the objectives in the text. They summarize the language content of each unit in the form of typical questions and answers on the topic of that unit. Each sentence is given both in roman-ized Chinese and in English. Turn to the appropriate Target List before, during, or after your work on a unit, whenever you need to pull together what is in the unit.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">Review Tapes (R-l)</span><span class="font9">: The Target List sentences are given on these tapes. Except in the short Orientation Module, there are two R-l tapes for each module.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">Criterion Test</span><span class="font9">: After studying each module, you will take a Criterion Test to find out which module objectives you have met and which you need to work on before beginning to study another module.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">Inside a Unit</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">Here is what you will be doing in each unit. First, you will work through two tapes:</span></p>
- <ul style="list-style:none;"><li>
- <p><span class="font9">1.</span><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;"> Comprehension Tape 1 (C-l)</span><span class="font9">: This tape introduces all the new words and structures in the unit and lets you hear them in the context of short conversational exchanges. It then works them into other short conversations and longer passages for listening practice, and finally reviews them in the Target List sentences. Your goal when using the tape is to understand all the Target List sentences for the unit.</span></p></li>
- <li>
- <p><span class="font9">2.</span><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;"> Production Tape 1 (P-1)</span><span class="font9">: This tape gives you practice in pronouncing the new words and in saying the sentences you learned to understand on the C-l tape. Your goal when using the P-1 tape is to be able to produce any of the Target List sentences in Chine<sup>e</sup>? when given the English equivalent.</span></p></li></ul>
- <p><span class="font9">The C-l and P-1 tapes, not accompanied by workbooks, are "portable" in the sense that they do not tie you down to your desk. However, there are some written materials for each unit which you will need to work into your study routine. A text </span><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">Reference List</span><span class="font9"> at the beginning of each unit contains the sentences from the C-l and P-1 tapes. It includes both the Chinese sentences and their English equivalents. The text </span><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">Reference Notes</span><span class="font9"> restate and expand the comments made on the C-l and P-1 tapes concerning grammar, vocabulary, pronunciation, and culture.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">After you have worked with the C-l and P-1 tapes, you go on to two class activities:</span></p>
- <ul style="list-style:none;"><li>
- <p><span class="font9">3.</span><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;"> Target List Review</span><span class="font9">: In this first class activity of the unit, you find out how well you learned the C-l and P-1 sentences. The teacher checks your understanding and production of the Target List sentences. He also presents any additional required vocabulary items, found at the end of the Target List, which were not on the C-l and P-1 tapes.</span></p></li></ul>
- <ul style="list-style:none;"><li>
- <p><span class="font9">U. </span><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">Structural Buildup</span><span class="font9">: During this class activity, you work on your understanding and control of the new structures in the unit. You respond to questions from your teacher about situations illustrated on a chalkboard or explained in other ways.</span></p></li></ul>
- <p><span class="font9">After these activities, your teacher may want you to spend some time working on the drills for the unit.</span></p>
- <ul style="list-style:none;"><li>
- <p><span class="font9">5.</span><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;"> Drill Tape</span><span class="font9">: This tape takes you through various types of drills based on the Target List sentences and on the additional required vocabulary.</span></p></li>
- <li>
- <p><span class="font9">6.</span><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;"> Drills</span><span class="font9">: The teacher may have you go over some or all of the drills in class, either to prepare for work with the tape, to review the tape, or to replace it.</span></p></li></ul>
- <p><span class="font9">Next, you use two more tapes. These tapes will give you as much additional practice as possible outside of class.</span></p>
- <ul style="list-style:none;"><li>
- <p><span class="font9">7.</span><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;"> Comprehension Tape 2 (C-2)</span><span class="font9">: This tape provides advanced listening practice with exercises containing long, varied passages which fully exploit the possibilities of the material covered. In the C-2 Workbook you answer questions about the passages.</span></p></li>
- <li>
- <p><span class="font9">8.</span><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;"> Production Tape 2 (P-2)</span><span class="font9">: This tape resembles the Structural Buildup in that you practice using the new structures of the unit in various situations. The P-2 Workbook provides instructions and displays of information for each exercise.</span></p></li></ul>
- <p><span class="font9">Following work on these two tapes, you take part in two class activities:</span></p>
- <ul style="list-style:none;"><li>
- <p><span class="font9">9.</span><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;"> Exercise Review</span><span class="font9">: The teacher reviews the exercises of the C-2 tape by reading or playing passages from the tape and questioning you on them. He reviews the exercises of the P-2 tape by questioning you on information displays in the P-2 Workbook.</span></p></li>
- <li>
- <p><span class="font9">10.</span><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;"> Communication Activities</span><span class="font9">: Here you use what you have learned in the unit for the purposeful exchange of information. Both fictitious situations (in Communication Games) and real-world situations involving you and your classmates (in "interviews”) are used.</span></p>

- <p><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">The Chinese Languages</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">We find it perfectly natural to talk about a language called ’’Chinese. ’’ We say, for example, that the people of China speak different dialects of Chinese, and that Confucius wrote in an ancient form of Chinese. On the other hand, we would never think of saying that the people of Italy, France, Spain, and Portugal speak dialects of one language, and that Julius Caesar wrote in an ancient form of that language. But the facts are almost exactly parallel.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">Therefore, in terms of what we think of as a language when closer to home, ’’Chinese” is not one language, but a family of languages. The language of Confucius is partway up the trunk of the family tree. Like Latin, it lived on as a literary language long after its death as a spoken language in popular use. The seven modern languages of China, traditionally known as the "dialects," are the branches of the tree. They share as strong a family resemblance as do Italian, French, Spanish, and Portuguese, and are about as different from one another.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">The predominant language of China is now known as </span><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">Putonghua</span><span class="font9">, or "Standard Chinese" (literally "the common speech"). The more traditional term, still used in Taiwan, is </span><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">Guoyǔ</span><span class="font9">, or "Mandarin" (literally "the national language"). Standard Chinese is spoken natively by almost two-thirds of the population of China and throughout the greater part of the country.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">The term "Standard Chinese" is often used more narrowly to refer to the true national language which is emerging. This language, which is already the language of all national broadcasting, is based primarily on the 'Peking dialect, but takes in elements from other dialects of Standard Chinese and even from other Chinese languages. Like many national languages, it is more widely understood than spoken, and is often spoken with some concessions to local speech, particularly in pronunciation.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">The Chinese languages and their dialects differ far more in pronunciation than in grammar and vocabulary. What distinguishes Standard Chinese most from the other Chinese languages, for example, is that it has the fewest tones and the fewest final consonants.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">The remaining six Chinese languages, spoken by approximately a quarter of the population of China, are tightly grouped in the southeast, below the Yangtze River. The six are: the Wu group (Wu), which includes the "Shanghai dialect"; Hunanese (</span><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">Xiāng</span><span class="font9">); the "Kiangsi dialect" (Gan); Cantonese (</span><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">Yuè</span><span class="font9">), the language of Guangdong, widely spoken in Chinese communities in the United States; Fukienese (</span><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">Min</span><span class="font9">), a variant of which is spoken by a majority on Taiwan and hence called Taiwanese; and Hakka (</span><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">Kèjiā</span><span class="font9">). spoken in a belt above the Cantonese area, as well as by a minority on Taiwan. Cantonese, Fukienese, and Hakka are also widely spoken throughout Southeast Asia.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">There are minority ethnic groups in China who speak non-Chinese languages. Some of these, such as Tibetan, are distantly related to the Chinese languages. Others, such as Mongolian, are entirely unrelated.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">Some Characteristics of Chinese</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">To us, perhaps the most striking feature of spoken Chinese is the use of variation in tone ("tones") to distinguish the different meanings of syllables which would otherwise sound alike. All languages, and Chinese is no exception, make use of sentence intonation to indicate how whole sentences are to be understood. In English, for example, the rising pattern in "He’s gone?" tells us that the sentence is meant as a question. The Chinese tones, however, are quite a different matter. They belong to individual syllables, not to the sentence as a whole. An inherent part of each Standard Chinese syllable is one of four distinctive tones. The tone does just as much to distinguish the syllable as do the consonants and vowels. For example, the only difference between the verb "to buy," </span><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">m&i, </span><span class="font9">and the verb "to sell," </span><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">mài</span><span class="font9">, is the Low tone (<sup>w</sup>) and the Falling tone (-). And yet these words are just as distinguishable as our words "buy" and "guy," or "buy" and "boy." Apart from the tones, the sound system of Standard Chinese is no more different from English than French is.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">Word formation in Standard Chinese is relatively simple. For one thing, there are no conjugations such as are found in many European languages. Chinese verbs have fewer forms than English verbs, and nowhere near as many irregularities. Chinese grammar relies heavily on word order and often the word order is the same as in English. For these reasons Chinese is not as difficult for Americans to learn to speak as one might think.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">It is often said that Chinese is a monosyllabic language. This notion contains a good deal of truth. It has been found that, on the average, every other word in ordinary conversation is a single-syllable word. Moreover, although most words in the dictionary have two syllables, and some have more, these words can almost always be broken down into singlesyllable units of meaning, many of which can stand alone as words.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">Written Chinese</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">Most languages with which we are familiar are written with an alphabet. The letters may be different from ours, as in the Greek alphabet, but the principle is the same: one letter for each consonant or vowel sound, more or less. Chinese, however, is written with "characters" which stand for whole syllables—in fact, for whole syllables with particular meanings. Although there are only about thirteen hundred phonetically distitìct syllables in standard Chinese, there are several thousand Chinese characters in everyday use, essentially one for each single-syllable unit of meaning. This means that many words have the same pronunciation but are written with different characters, as </span><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">tiān,</span><span class="font9"> "sky," X, and </span><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">tiān,</span><span class="font9"> "to add," "to increase,"</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">Chinese characters are often referred to as "ideographs," which suggests that they stand directly for ideas. But this is misleading. It is better to think of them as standing for the meaningful syllables of the spoken language.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">Minimal literacy in Chinese calls for knowing about a thousand characters. These thousand characters, in combination, give a reading vocabulary of several thousand words. Full literacy calls for knowing some three thousand characters. In order to reduce the amount of time needed to learn characters, there has been a vast extension in the People’s Republic of China (PRC) of the principle of character simplification, which has reduced the average number of strokes per character by half.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">During the past century, various systems have been proposed for representing the sounds of Chinese with letters of the Roman alphabet. One of these romanizations, </span><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">Hànyǔ Pinyin</span><span class="font9"> (literally "Chinese Language Spelling," generally called "Pinyin" in English), has been adopted officially in the PRC, with the short-term goal of teaching all students the Standard Chinese pronunciation of characters. A long-range goal is the use of Pinyin for written communication throughout the country. This is not possible, of course, until speakers across the nation have uniform pronunciations of Standard Chinese. For the time being, characters, which represent meaning, not pronunciation, are still the most widely accepted way of communicating in writing.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">Pinyin uses all of the letters in our alphabet except v, and adds the letter u. The spellings of some of the consonant sounds are rather arbitrary from our point of view, but for every consonant sound there is only one letter or one combination of letters, and vice versa. You will find that each vowel letter can stand for different vowel sounds, depending on what letters precede or follow it in the syllable. The four tones are indicated by accent marks over the vowels, and the Neutral tone by the absence of an accent mark:</span></p>

- <p><span class="font9">One reason often given for the retention of characters is that they can be read, with the local pronunciation, by speakers of all the Chinese languages. Probably a stronger reason for retaining them is that the characters help keep alive distinctions of meaning between words, and connections of meaning between words, which are fading in the spoken language. On the other hand, a Cantonese could learn to speak Standard Chinese, and read it alphabetically, at least as easily as he can learn several thousand characters.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">Pinyin is used throughout this course to provide a simple written representation of pronunciation. The characters, which are chiefly responsible for the reputation of Chinese as a difficult language, are taught separately.</span></p>
- <h3><a name="bookmark237"></a><span class="font1" style="font-weight:bold;"><a name="bookmark238"></a>BACKGROUND NOTES: ABOUT CHINESE CHARACTERS</span></h3>
- <p><span class="font9">Each Chinese character is written as a fixed sequence of strokes. There are very few basic types of strokes, each with its own prescribed direction, length, and contour. The dynamics of these strokes as written with a brush, the classical writing instrument, show up clearly even in printed characters. You can tell from the varying thickness of the stroke how the brush met the paper, how it swooped, and how it lifted; these effects are largely lost in characters written with a ball-point pen.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">The sequence of strokes is of particular importance. Let’s take the character for "mouth," pronounced </span><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">kou</span><span class="font9">. Here it is as normally written, with the order and directions of the strokes indicated.</span></p><img src="FSI-StandardChinese-Module01ORN-StudentText_files/FSI-StandardChinese-Module01ORN-StudentText-23.png" alt="" style="width:66pt;height:60pt;">
- <p><span class="font9">If the character is written rapidly, in "running-style writing," one stroke glides into the next, like this.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">If the strokes were written in any but the proper order, quite different distortions would take place as each stroke reflected the last and anticipated the next, and the character would be illegible.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">The earliest surviving Chinese characters, inscribed on the Shang Dynasty "oracle bones" of about 1500 B.C., already included characters that went beyond simple pictorial representation. There are some characters in use today which are pictorial, like the character for "mouth." There are also some which are directly symbolic, like our Roman numerals I, II, and III. (The characters for these numbers—the first numbers you learn in this course—are like the Roman numerals turned on their sides.) There are some which are indirectly symbolic, like our Arabic numerals 1, </span><span class="font9" style="font-style:italic;">2,</span><span class="font9"> and 3. But the most common type of character is complex, consisting of two parts: a "phonetic," which suggests the pronunciation, and a "radical," which broadly characterizes the meaning. Let’s take the following character as an example.</span></p><img src="FSI-StandardChinese-Module01ORN-StudentText_files/FSI-StandardChinese-Module01ORN-StudentText-24.png" alt="" style="width:59pt;height:69pt;">
- <p><span class="font9">This character means "ocean" and is pronounced </span><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">yang</span><span class="font9">. The left side of the character, the three short strokes, is an abbreviation of a character which means "water" and is pronounced </span><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">shul</span><span class="font9">. This is the "radical." It has been borrowed only for its meaning, "water." The right side of the character above is a character which means "sheep" and is pronounced </span><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">yang</span><span class="font9">. This is the "phonetic." It has been borrowed only for its sound value, </span><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">yang</span><span class="font9">. A speaker of Chinese encountering the above character for the first time could probably figure out that the only Chinese word that sounds like </span><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">yang </span><span class="font9">and means something like "water" is the word </span><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">yang</span><span class="font9"> meaning "ocean." We, as speakers of English, might not be able to figure it out. Moreover, phonetics and radicals seldom work as neatly as in this example. But we can still learn to make good use of these hints at sound and sense.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">Many dictionaries classify characters in terms of the radicals. According to one of the two dictionary systems used, there are 1?6 radicals; in the other system, there are 21U. There are over a thousand phonetics.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">Chinese has traditionally been written vertically, from top to bottom of the page, starting on the right-hand side, with the pages bound so that the first page is where we would expect the last page to be. Nowadays, however, many Chinese publications paginate like Western publications, and the characters are written horizontally, from left to right.</span></p>
- <h3><a name="bookmark239"></a><span class="font1" style="font-weight:bold;"><a name="bookmark240"></a>BACKGROUND NOTES: ABOUT CHINESE PERSONAL NAMES AND TITLES</span></h3>
- <p><span class="font9">A Chinese personal name consists of two parts: a surname and a given name. There is no middle name. The order is the reverse of ours: surname first, given name last.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">The most common pattern for Chinese names is a single-syllable surname followed by a two-syllable given name:<a name="footnote7"></a><sup><a href="#bookmark241">7</a></sup></span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">Mao Zedong (Mao Tse-tung)</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">Zhōu Ēnlái (Chou En-lai)</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">Jiang Jièshí (Chiang Kai-shek)</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">Song Qìnglíng (Soong Ch’ing-ling—Mme Sun Yat-sen)</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">Song Měilíng (Soong Mei-ling—Mme Chiang Kai-shek)</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">It is not uncommon, however, for the given name to consist of a single syllable:</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">Zhū De (Chu Teh)</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">Lin Biāo (Lin Piao)</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">Hu Shi (Hu Shih)</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">Jiang Qīng (Chiang Ch’ing—Mme Mao Tse-tung)</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">There are a few two-syllable surnames. These are usually followed by single-syllable given names:</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">Sīmǎ Guāng (Ssu-ma Kuang) Ōuyáng Xiū (Ou-yang Hsiu) Zhūgě Liang (Chu-ke Liang)</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">But two-syllable surnames may also be followed by two-syllable given names:</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">Sīmǎ Xiāngrú (Ssu-ma Hsiang-Ju)</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">An exhaustive list of Chinese surnames includes several hundred written with a single character and several dozen written with two characters. Some single-syllable surnames sound exactly alike although written with different characters, and to distinguish them, the Chinese may occasionally have to describe the character or "write" it with a finger on the palm of a hand. But the surnames that you are likely to encounter are fewer than a hundred, and a handful of these are so common that they account for a good majority of China’s population.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">Given names, as opposed to surnames, are not restricted to a limited list of characters. Men's names are often but not always distinguishable from women’s; the difference, however, usually lies in the meaning of the characters and so is not readily apparent to the beginning student with a limited knowledge of characters.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">Outside the People’s Republic the traditional system of titles is still in use. These titles closely parallel our own "Mr.," "Mrs.," and "Miss." Notice, however, that all Chinese titles follow the name—either the full name or the surname alone—rather than preceding it.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">The title "Mr." is </span><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">Xiānsheng</span><span class="font9">.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">MS Xiānsheng</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">JIS Mínglī Xiānsheng</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">The title "Mrs." is </span><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">Tàitai</span><span class="font9">. It follows the husband’s full name or surname alone.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">MS Tàitai</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">MS Mínglī Tàitai</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">The title "Miss" is </span><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">Xiǎojiě</span><span class="font9">. The MS family’s grown daughter, Défēn, would be</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">Mǎ Xiǎojiě</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">MS Défēn XiSojiě</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">Even traditionally, outside the People’s Republic, a married woman does not take her husband’s name in the same sense as in our culture. If Miss Fang BSolán marries Mr. MS Mínglī, she becomes Mrs. MS Mínglī, but at the same time she remains Fāng BSolán. She does not become MS BSolán; there is no equivalent of "Mrs. Mary Smith." She may, however, add her husband’s surname to her own full name and refer to herself as Mǎ Fāng BSolán. At work she is quite likely to continue as Miss Fāng.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">These customs regarding names are still observed by many Chinese today in various parts of the world. The titles carry certain connotations, however, when used in the PRC today: </span><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">Tàitai</span><span class="font9"> should not be used because it designates that woman as a member of the leisure class. </span><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">Xiǎojiě</span><span class="font9"> should not be used because it carries the connotation of being from a rich family.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">In the People’s Republic, the title "Comrade," </span><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">Tongzhì</span><span class="font9">, is used in place of the titles </span><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">Xiānsheng</span><span class="font9">, </span><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">Tàitai</span><span class="font9">, and </span><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">Xiǎojiě</span><span class="font9">. Mǎ Mínglī would be</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">MS Tongzhì</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">Mǎ Mínglī Tongzhì</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">The title ’’Comrade" is applied to all, regardless of sex or marital status. A married'-woman does not take her husband’s name in any sense. MS Mínglí’s wife would be</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">Fang Tóngzhì</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">Fang Bǎolán Tóngzhì</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">Children may be given either the mother’s or the father’s surname at birth. In some families one child has the father's surname, and another child has the mother’s surname. MS MÍnglī’s and Fang BSolán's grown daughter could be</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">MS Tóngzhì</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">MS Défēn Tóngzhì</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">Their grown son could be</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">Fang Tóngzhì</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">Fang Zìqiáng Tóngzhì</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">Both in the PRC and elsewhere, of course, there are official titles and titles of respect in addition to the common titles we have discussed here. Several of these will be introduced later in the course.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">The question of adapting foreign names to Chinese calls for special consideration. In the People’s Republic the policy is to assign Chinese phonetic equivalents to foreign names. These approximations are often not as close phonetically as they might be, since the choice of appropriate written characters may bring in nonphonetic considerations. (An attempt is usually made when transliterating to use characters with attractive meanings.) For the most part, the resulting names do not at all resemble Chinese names. For example, the official version of "David Anderson" is Dàiwéi Andésēn.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">An older approach, still in use outside the PRC, is to construct a valid Chinese name that suggests the foreign name phonetically. For example, "David Anderson" might be An Dàwèi.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">Sometimes, when a foreign surname has the same meaning as a Chinese surname, semantic suggestiveness is chosen over phonetic suggestiveness. For example, </span><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">Wang</span><span class="font9">, a common Chinese surname, means "king," so "Daniel King" might be rendered Wang Dànián.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">Students in this course will be given both the official PRC phonetic equivalents of their names and Chinese-style names.</span></p>
- <h2><a name="bookmark242"></a><span class="font4" style="font-weight:bold;"><a name="bookmark243"></a>MODULE 1: ORIENTATION</span></h2>
- <p><span class="font9">The Orientation Module and associated resource modules provide the linguistic tools needed to begin the study of Chinese. The materials also introduce the teaching procedures used in this course.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">The Orientation Module is not a typical course module in several respects. First, it does not have a situational topic of its own, but rather leads into the situational topic of the following module—Biographic Information. Second, it teaches only a little Chinese grammar and vocabulary. Third, two of the associated resource modules (Pronunciation and Romanization, Numbers) are not optional; together with the Orientation Module, they are prerequisite to the rest of the course.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font1" style="font-weight:bold;">OBJECTIVES</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">Upon successful completion of this module and the two associated resource modules, the student should</span></p>

- <li>
- <p><span class="font9">2. Be able to pronounce any combination of sounds found in the words of the Target Lists when given a romanized syllable to read. (Although the entire sound system of Chinese is introduced in the module, the student is responsible for producing only sounds used in the Target Sentences for ORN. Producing the remaining sounds is included in the Objectives for Biographic Information.)</span></p></li>
- <li>
- <p><span class="font9">3. Know the names and locations of five cities and five provinces of China well enough to point out their locations on a map, and pronounce the names well enough to be understood by a Chinese.</span></p></li></ul>

- <p><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">Materials You Will Need </span><span class="font9">1. The C-l and P-1 tapes, the Reference List and Reference Notes.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">2. The drill tape (1D-1).</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">About the C-l and P-1 Tapes</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">The C-l and P-1 tapes are your introduction to the Chinese words and structures presented in each unit. The tapes give you explanations and practice on the new material. By the time you have worked through these two tapes, you will be competent in understanding and producing the expressions introduced in the unit.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">With the C-l tape, you learn to understand the new words and structures. The material is presented in short conversational exchanges, first with English translations and later with pauses which allow you to translate. Try to give a complete English translation for each Chinese expression. Your goal when using the C-l tape is to learn the meanings of all the words and structures as they are used in the sentences.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">With the P-1 tape, you learn to put together these sentences. You learn to pronounce each new word and use each new structure. When the recorded instructions direct you to pronounce a word or say a sentence, do so out loud. It is important fop you to hear yourself speaking Chinese, so that you will know whether you are pronouncing the words correctly. Making the effort to say the expression is a big part of learning it. It is one thing to think about how a sentence should be put together or how it should sound. It is another thing to put it together that way or make it sound that way. Your goal when using the P-1 tape is to produce the Target List expressions in Chinese when given English equivalents. At the end of each P-1 tape is a review of the Target List which you can go over until you have mastered the expressions.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">At times, you may feel that the material on a tape is being presented too fast. You may find that there is not enough time allowed for working out the meaning of a sentence or saying a sentence the way you want to. When this happens, stop the tape. If you want to, rewind.' Use the control buttons on your machine to make the tape manageable for you and to get the most out of it.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">About the Reference List and the Reference Notes</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">The Reference List and the Reference Notes are designed to be used before, during, or directly after work with the C-l and P-1 tapes.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">The Reference List is a summary of the C-l and P-1 tapes. It contains all sentences which introduce new material, showing you both the Chinese sentences written in romanization and their English equivalents. You will find that the list is printed so that either the Chinese or the English can be covered to allow you to test yourself on comprehension, production, or romanization of the sentences.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">The Reference Notes give you information about grammar, pronunciation, and cultural usage. Some of these explanations duplicate what you hear on the C-l and P-1 tapes. Other explanations contain new information.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">You may use the Reference List and Reference Notes in various ways. For example, you may follow the Reference Notes as you listen to a tape, glancing at an exchange or stopping to read a comment whenever you want to. Or you may look through the Reference Notes before listening to a tape, and then use the Reference List while you listen, to help you keep track of where you are. Whichever way you decide to use these parts of a unit, remember that they are reference materials. Don’t rely on the translations and romanizations as subtitles for the C-l tape or as cue cards for the P-1 tape, for this would rob you of your chance to develop listening and responding skills.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">About the Drills</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">The drills help you develop fluency, ease of response, and confidence. You can go through the drills on your own, with the drill tapes, and the teacher may take you through them in class as well.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">Allow more than half an hour for a half-hour drill tape, since you will usually need to go over all or parts of the tape more than once to get full benefit from it.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">The drills include many personal names, providing you with valuable pronunciation practice. However, if you find the names more than you can handle the first time through the tape, replace them with the pronoun </span><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">tā </span><span class="font9">whenever possible. Similar substitutions are often possible with place names.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">Some of the drills involve sentences which you may find too long to understand or produce on your first try, and you will need to rewind for another try. Often, particularly the first time through a tape, you will find the pauses too short, and you will need to stop the tape to give yourself more time. The performance you should aim for with these tapes, however, is full comprehension and full, fluent, and accurate production while the tape rolls.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">The five basic types of drills are described below.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">Substitution Drills</span><span class="font9">; The teacher (T) gives a pattern sentence which the student (S) repeats. Then the teacher gives a word or phrase (a </span><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">cue</span><span class="font9">) which the student substitutes appropriately in the original sentence. The teacher follows immediately with a new cue.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">Here is an English example of a substitution drill:</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">T: Are you an American?</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">S: Are you an American?</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">T: (</span><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">cue</span><span class="font9">) English</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">S: Are you English?</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">T: (</span><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">cue</span><span class="font9">) French</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">S: Are you French?</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">Transformation Drills</span><span class="font9">: On the basis of a model provided at the beginning of the drill, the student makes a certain change in each sentence the teacher says.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">Here is an English example of a transformation drill, in which the student is changing affirmative sentences into negative ones: '</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">T: I’m going to the bank.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">S: I’m not going to the bank.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">T: I’m going to the store.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">S: I’m not going to the store.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">Response Drills</span><span class="font9">: On the basis of a model given at the beginning of the drill, the student responds to questions or remarks by the teacher as cued by the teacher.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">Here is an English example of-a response drill:</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">T: What is his name? (</span><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">cue</span><span class="font9">) Harris</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">S: His name is Harris.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">T: What is her name? (</span><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">cue</span><span class="font9">) Noss</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">S: Her name is Noss.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">Expansion Drills</span><span class="font9">: The student adds something to a pattern sentence as cued by the teacher.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">Here is an English example of an expansion drill</span></p>
- <div>
- <p><span class="font9">(</span><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">cue</span><span class="font9">) Japanese He's Japanese.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">(</span><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">cue</span><span class="font9">) French She's French.</span></p>
- </div><br clear="all">
- <p><span class="font9">T: He isn’t Chinese. S: He isn't Chinese. T: She isn’t German. S: She isn’t German.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">Combination Drills</span><span class="font9">: On the basis of a model given at the beginning of the drill, the student combines two phrases or sentences given by the teacher into a single utterance.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">Here is an English example of a combination drill:</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">T: I am reading a book. John gave me the book.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">S: I am reading a book which John gave me.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">T: Mary bought a picture. I like the picture.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">S: Mary bought a picture which I like.</span></p>

When followed by a syllable with a High, Rising, or Low tone, a Falling tone is used (bù). When followed by a syllable with a Falling or Neutral tone, a Rising tone is used (bú).</span></p>

- <p><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">Names</span><span class="font9">: In the People’s Republic, a foreigner is known by the standard phonetic equivalent of his full name. His given name is followed by his surname, which is followed by the appropriate title. Mr. David Anderson will be called </span><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">Dàiwéi Āndésēn Xiānsheng</span><span class="font9">. In Taiwan, there is no set way of giving names to foreigners. Sometimes, as in the PRC, a phonetic equivalent of the full name is used (though there are no standard versions). Sometimes, the equivalent is based entirely on the surname. Mr. Anderson, for instance, might be </span><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">Ān Désēn Xiānsheng</span><span class="font9">. The surname may also be translated, as when "King" is translated into </span><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">Wáng</span><span class="font9">. It is also common to base the Chinese surname on the first syllable of the original surname, and the Chinese given name on something else (often the original given name). In Taiwan, </span><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">Dāwèi</span><span class="font9"> is a common phonetic equivalent for "David." "Mr. David Anderson," therefore, might be </span><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">Ān Dāwèi Xiānsheng</span><span class="font9">. Here is a chart of SOME of the Chinese names that might be given to Mr. David Anderson.</span></p>

The term </span><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">fūren</span><span class="font9"> is an expecially respectful term used to address the wife of a high-ranking official or businessman. </span><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">Fūren</span><span class="font9"> is also used this way on Taiwan.

- <p><span class="font9">The term </span><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">Tongzhì</span><span class="font9">, ’’Comrade," was originally used only by members of the Communist Party to address other members.

Visitors in the People’s Republic, who are not citizens and who do not take part in efforts to realize Communist ideals, will not be addressed as </span><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">Tongzhì</span><span class="font9"> and should not feel obliged to address anyone else as such.</span></p>

- <p><span class="font9">The purpose of the Criterion Test at the end of each module is to show you not only how much of the material you have learned, hut also what points you need to work on before beginning to study smother module.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">Since the primary goal of ORN is to introduce the sound system of Standard Chinese, this test focuses on your ability to discriminate and produce tones, vowels, and consonants. Additionally, there are sections which test your ability to comprehend and produce numbers from 1 through 99 and the material in the ORN Target Lists. Your knowledge of personal names and titles and the romanization system is also tested. Read the Objectives at the beginning of the module for a description of exactly what the test covers. Note: Although the entire sound system is introduced in the Pronunciation and Romanization Module, you will be tested here only on those sounds which occur in the Target Sentences. Other sounds will be included in Criterion Tests for later modules.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">Following is a sample of the Criterion Test for this module. Each section of the test, with directions and a sample question, is represented here so that you may know exactly what is expected of you after studying the ORN Module.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">Minimum scores are suggested for each section of the test. Achieving thesescores means that you are adequately prepared for the next module. If you fall below the minimum criterion on any section, you should review relevant study materials.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">You will use a tape to complete Part I of the test. Part II is written, and you will complete Part III with your instructor. Part IV of the test (Diagnostics) indicates the passing score for each section and review materials for each section.</span></p>

- <ul style="list-style:none;"><li>
- <p><span class="font9">1. This section tests your ability to distinguish the four tones. In your test booklet you will see two syllables after each letter. The speaker will pronounce both syllables, and then say one of them again. You are to decide which syllable was repeated, and circle the appropriate one to indicate your choice. The syllables may occur in any of the four tones, regardless of which tone was used previously in the module. The same syllable may occur more than once in this section.</span></p></li></ul>
- <p><span class="font9">For example, the speaker might say. </span><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">fēi</span><span class="font9">...</span><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">fSi</span><span class="font9"> and then repeat </span><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">fēi</span><span class="font9">.</span></p>
- <ul style="list-style:none;"><li>
- <p><span class="font9">2. This section tests your ability to recognize the four tones in isolated syllables. The speaker will pronounce a syllable twice; you add to the written syllable the tone that you hear. Again, the syllables may occur in any of the four tones, regardless of which tone was used previously in the module.</span></p></li></ul>
- <p><span class="font9">For example, the speaker might say: </span><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">fěi</span><span class="font9">...</span><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">fSi</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">a.</span></p>
- <ul style="list-style:none;"><li>
- <p><span class="font9">3. This section tests your ability to recognize the four tones in two-syllable combinations. The speaker pronounces each two-syllable item twice and then pauses a moment for you to mark tones on the written syllables. For the first ten items, one of the two tones is already marked. For the last ten items, you must fill in both tones.</span></p></li></ul>
- <p><span class="font9">For example, the speaker might say: </span><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">chábei</span><span class="font9">...</span><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">chábei</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">chabei</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">U. In this section, you are tested on syllables which differ minimally in sound. The speaker will pronounce each syllable in an item once; then he will pronounce one of the syllables again. Decide which of the syllables was repeated, and indicate your choice by circling that written syllable in your test booklet. The syllables in this test do not necessarily correspond in every way to syllables in the Target Lists. They may vary in tone, for example.</span></p>
- <p><span class="font9">For example, the speaker might say: </span><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">fan</span><span class="font9">...</span><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">fang</span><span class="font9"> and then repeat </span><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">fang</span><span class="font9">.</span></p>

As the speaker says a syllable, write the appropriate vowel or consonant letter(s) in the blank. This tests your ability to recognize the sounds of a syllable and to use the romanization system correctly. The speaker will say each syllable twice.</span></p></li></ul>

- <ul style="list-style:none;"><li>
- <p><span class="font9">10. This section tests your ability to pronounce the four tones. Simple sound combinations have been chosen so that special attention may be given to tone production. For each item, choose one syllable and read it aloud. As you do so, put a circle around the one you choose. The instructor will note the syllable he hears. Be sure to choose a fair sampling of all four tones, and select them in random order.</span></p></li></ul>
- <p><span class="font9">For example, you might say: ma</span></p>
- <ul style="list-style:none;"><li>
- <p><span class="font9">11. This section tests your ability to pronounce Chinese sounds from the Target Lists, as well as your ability to read romanization. For each item, choose one syllable and read it aloud. As you do so, put a circle around the one you choose. The instructor will note the syllable he hears. Be sure to choose syllables from each column as you go through this section of the test.</span></p></li></ul>
- <p><span class="font9">For example, you might say: </span><span class="font9" style="text-decoration:underline;">nín</span></p>

- <p><span class="font9">12. This section tests your ability to locate and name main cities and provinces in China. Using the map in your booklet, point out to your instructor five cities and five provinces and name them. Pronunciation is of secondary importance here.</span></p></li>
- <li>
- <p><span class="font9">13- This section tests your ability to produce sentences in Chinese. Your instructor will say an English sentence from the Target Lists, and you translate it into Chinese. Your Chinese sentence must be correct both in grammar and in content.</span></p></li></ul>
- <p><span class="font9">1U. This section tests your ability to make conversational use of the material covered in this module. Although limited in scope, this conversation between you and your instructor represents a situation which you are likely to encounter in the real world. As in any conversation, you are free to ask for a repetition or rephrasing of a sentence, or you may volunteer information on the subject. It is not so much the correctness of your pronunciation and grammar that is being tested as it is your ability to communicate effectively.</span></p>
