Answer 267

是......的 structure is used when indicating when, where, how, with whom, and why an event happened. In this structure, the words "是" (to be) or "的" (indicating possessive relationships). One can think of 是......的 as a bracket to frame the information of when, where, how, with whom, and why an event occurred in the past. Ex: 凯丽：你是哪天回上海的？ (When did you come back to Shanghai?) 欣坭：我是星期三回来的。 (I came back on Wednesday.) 凯丽：你是从温哥华直飞上海的吗？ (Did you fly directly from Vancouver to Shanghai?) 欣坭：不是，我是先从温哥华去东京，再从东京飞上海的。 (No. I flew from Vancouver to Tokyo, and then from Tokyo to Shanghai.)

Answer 268

from... to... This prepositional phrase can be used to indicate a period between two points in time or the physical distance between two locations. Ex: 从我家到学校不远。 (It is not far from my house to the school.) Ex: 她们从上午八点到下午三点都在学校。 (They are at school from 8am to 3pm.)

Answer 269

(something) is about to happen The structure 要 + verb phrase + 了 indicates that an action will take place soon. Ex: 我们要开始上课了。(Our class is about to begin.) Ex: 要三点了。(It's almost three o'clock.)

Answer 270

(as soon as) 一...... 就 ...... is used to connect two actions/events that take place, one immediately after the other. Both 一 and 就 are adverbs and come before verbs. Ex: 我一回家就做作业。(As soon as I get home I do my homework.) Ex: 他一到我们就玩电脑游戏。(As soon as he arrives we will play computer games.) Ex: 她一看侦探小说就想做侦探了。(As soon as he read a detective story he wanted to be a detective.)

Answer 271

The structure 要。。。了，which describes an action that will soon take place. To increase the degree of immediacy, the adverb 就 can be placed before 要. To decrease the degree of immediacy, the adverb 快 is placed before 要. When 就 or 快 is used, 要 becomes optional. There is no difference in meaning with or without 要. Ex: 火车就（要）开了。(The train is leaving momentarily.) Ex: 我们就（要）上课了。(The class is just about to begin.) Ex: 弟弟快（要）上小学了。( The younger brother will start elementary school soon.) Ex: 我们快（要）考试了。(We will have our test soon.) > There are no definitive "time rules" for using 就要，要 or 快要，Personal differences affect how individuals perceive the immediacy of an upcoming event. People may describe the same thing in different ways: 1) 中秋节要到了。(The Mid-Autumn Festival is coming soon.) 2) 中秋节就要到了。(The Mid-Autumn Festival is coming very soon.) 3) 中秋节快要到了。(The Mid-Autumn Festival is coming.) > There is another difference among these three structures. 要 and 就要 can take an adverb of time, but 快要 cannot. Ex: 明天我要去北京了。(Tomorrow I am going to Beijing.) Ex: 九点她就要到上海了。(He will arrive in Shanghai right at nine.) Ex: 飞机快要到了。(The plane is arriving soon.)

Answer 272

To say that "A is more/less (Adjective) than B," the pattern is: A + 比 + B + Adjective Ex: 葡萄比苹果贵。(Grapes are more expensive than apples.) Ex: 我的电脑比你的小。(My computer is smaller than yours.)

Answer 273

Ex: 她买来买去都是买苹果，不能买些别的水果吗？(She buys apples all the time. Why can't she buy some other fruits?) Ex: 我们找来去还是没有找到小猫。(We looked everywhere but we haven't found the kitten.) Ex: 我在超市看来看去，最后买了一个大西瓜。(I looked around in the supermarket and finally bought a large watermelon.)

Answer 274

(if it is not A, then it is B; either A or B) The structure 不是A就是B is for describing a situation that has little variation.It implies there are very limited choices or possibilities. Ex: 她每天晚上不是做作业就是玩电脑。(Every evening, she either does her homework or plays on the computer.) Ex: 我爸爸不是在家就是在公司。(My father is either at home or at the office.)

Answer 275

a little, a little bit 一点儿 indicates a small quantity or amount. It is placed after a verb. (S + V + 一点儿) A: 你做作业了吗？(A: Did you do your homework?) B: 我做了一点儿。(B: I did a little.) If the verb takes an object, 一点儿 is placed between the verb and the object. (V + 一点儿 + O) Ex: 吃一点儿肉 (eat a little meat) Ex: 喝一点儿水 (drink a little water) Ex: 看一点儿书 (read a little bit)

Answer 276

excessively There are several 大。。。大。。。 set phrases, which express doing something in a big way. In the set phrases the two words after 大 have the same part of speech (verbs, adjectives, or nouns) and each word can only have one syllable. 大吃大喝：eat and drink excessively 大喊大叫：shout and yell in a loud voice 大鱼大肉：exclusively fish and meat 大毛大脚：spend money excessively

Answer 277

..... 的话 means "if, in the event of, in case." It is used to form a conditional clause. 的话 is an informal expression used in spoken Chinese. The conditional clause formed 的话 always goes before the main clause. Ex: 明天下雨的话，我就不去南京了。(If it rains tomorrow, I won't go to Nanjing.) Ex: 你有问题的话，可以打电话给我。(If you have questions, please give me a call.)

Answer 285

it is likely, it is possible Subject + 会 + Predicate (verb/adjective) + 的 Ex: 他会来的。(It is likely that he will come.) Ex: 老师会很高兴的。(The teacher is likely to be happy.) Ex: 你会考得很好的。(You are likely to do well in the test.)

Answer 286

An adjective or verb phrase can be inserted between 可 and 了. This expression is used for emphasis. Ex: 他可聪明了。(He is really smart.) Ex: 我可喜欢吃冰淇淋了。(I really like to eat icecream.)

Answer 287

The prepositional phrase "对 + someone" is needed when we want to say "she said to someone. . ." Remember, a prepositional phrase usually goes before a verb. Ex: 她对我说 (She said to me) Ex: 我对老师说 (I said to the teacher) Ex: 爸爸对妈妈说 (Dad said to Mom)

Answer 288

左右 is an adverb. Unlike other adverbs that are placed before a verb, 左右 is always placed after an expression of quantity. Ex: 她三十岁左右。(He is about 30 years old.) Ex: 这台电脑五千块左右。(This computer cost around 5000 yuan.) Ex: 我在北京住了二十天左右。(I stayed in Beijing for about twenty days.)

Answer 289
