Magic Chinese Textbook

MAGIC CHINESE TEXTBOOKLesson 1: Numbers標題：Lesson One: NumbersThe story…The ‘Magic Chinese’ journey starts when Melissa and her family go to a flea market and buy what they think is a compass. It is old and rusty, with many dials and buttons that seem more like decorations than anything else. Beautiful designs are carved into the lid. Even though the compass doesn’t seem to work very well, Melissa still loves it. What she doesn’t realize is that the compass is going to change her life and that of her friends.On the day after she buys the compass, Melissa, as always, gets together with her four good friends in Peter’s garage. Excitedly, Melissa shows everyone the compass. Peter immediately declares that he knows how to make it work, but Tom barges his way in, snatching the compass and wildly pressing all of the buttons and turning all of the dials. Suddenly, strange, glowing words appear as if by magic in the air. Tom drops the compass out of surprise, but the words remain. Everyone is astonished by them.They ask Peter at once what these words mean. Peter explains that they are times and dates in Chinese, but he doesn’t know why they are there or how they have appeared. Melissa exclaims that it doesn’t matter. She thinks that everything that has occurred so far is extremely exciting and just like what is told in fantasy stories. Maybe the compass will take them to a magical world! However, something strange happens. When Reggie pushes the upper left key, the compass screen promptly displays English on what looks like a computer screen. It seems to have turned into a translator. I. 故事發展 (Narration)Melissa is showing this curious-looking compass to her friends. While everyone is watching intently, Peter declares that he knows how to use it. Tom barges in immediately and begins to press all the buttons and dials. Suddenly, strange, glowing words appears as if by magic in the air. Tom drops the compass out of surprise, but the words remain. Everyone is astonished by them. II. 課文對話 (Dialogue) Tom Look! What’s this? Hey, there are some amazing symbols. I wonder what language this is. Peter I know. I know. That’s Chinese. They are the numbers 1- 10. “一,二,三,四,五,六,七,八,九十.” Linda What? (mimicking)….yi, er, san, si, wu, ……….. Wow! That’s really cool. I want to learn it. Peter Look! Here’s today’s date. “二零零七年十月二十六日. ” Melissa (Looking at the time machine) What about this? Peter That’s the time. “下午三點二十六分.” Tom Look at this! I think this button sounds it out. Listen! Time Machine 一,二,三,四,五,六,七,八,九十.

To state a telephone number in Chinese just say each digit in order. Remember numbers are keys words in a sentence; you need to pronounce each number clearly and correctly.415-833-9706 四一五-八三三-九七零六Now, ask some of your classmate to state their home phone numbers in Chinese, and write them down below:________________________2. How do you say year, month and date in Chinese? In Chinese, the character 月(yue4) “The moon” stands for month; while 日(ri4) “The sun” stands for the day or date. For example, the eighteenth day of September is written 九月十八日. In speaking, however, the word “號” (hao4=number) replaces “日 ”. Thus, 九月十八號 is how you say September 18th. From January to December, you can just go by the order of the numbers from the first month to the twelfth:January 一月, February 二月, March 三月, April 四月, May 五月, June 六月, July 七月, August 八月, September 九月, October 十月, November 十一月, December 十二月Now, what are these dates? Give the English translation for each of the following: 四月九日＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿十一月二十號＿＿＿＿＿＿＿七月六號＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿八月三十一日＿＿＿＿＿＿＿九月八日＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿十二月十八號＿＿＿＿＿＿＿For the year, you will say the four digit number just like you say the telephone numbers, and end the phrase with 年 (nian2, the word for “year”). For example: 1990, 一九九零年 1865, 一八六五年 2002, 二零零二年 2008, 二零零八年 2012, 二零一二年Now, to give information on year, month and date, simply use this order: from large to small (year+month+date): For example; September 30th, 2008- 二零零八年九月三十日 Please give the English translation for each of the following dates:一七八五四月六日 ______一八九三年十月十五日 ______一九九六年八月二十九日 ______二零零九年三月十六日 ______Now give the date of birth of some your family members or your friends:________________________3. What is today’s date? 今天是幾月幾號? “幾” is a question word, which literally means “how many” or “how much”. Whenever a question regarding a number is asked, 幾 is used.今天 (是) 幾月幾號? 明天你的生日六月有幾天? 十月今年二月你的電話幾號?4. Note the difference between 一月 and 一個月. The word “個” is a generic measure word. So while 一個月 means one month,一月 means January. For example;一個月有三十天 as opposed to 一月有三十一天今年二月有二十九天明年二月二十八天九月三十5. To state the time of the day: 上午九點十分下午三點二十分Now, write down the following times in Chinese:6:00 AM ______8:30 PM ______11:15 AM ______6:35 PM ______2:36 PM ______7:50 AM ______6.Please note when counting the number of years, ‘年’, does not take a measure word. Thus, ‘a year’ is ‘一年’ rather than‘一個年’For example: “ There are 365 days in a year” is “一年有三百六十五天.” (A year has 365 days.) The word for week “星期” on the other hand, takes measure word “個” as a counter. For example: There are 21 days in three weeks.三個星期有二十一天.(Three weeks has 21 days.)Now, can you translate the following into English?There are 366 days in the year 2008. (The year 2008 has 366 days.) ______There are 29 days in February this year ______There are four weeks in a month.______There are 52 weeks in a year. ______補充詞彙 Words to help. 今天有星期今年電話點生日是個快樂幾你的明天明年VI. 動腦活動 Class ActivitiesA. 唱歌: 用 One little, two little, three little Indians 曲調(以後五線譜要畫在這裡, 淑真,你真不得了, 你的五線譜是怎麼弄的?).一個, 兩個, 三個小孩; 四個, 五個, 六個小孩; 七個,八個, 九個小孩十個小孩通通來.B. 連連看 Dot to Dot (做一個連接點到點的圖畫,讓學生從一連到一百.)C. 畫一隻長長的蜈蚣,讓學生猜猜看一共有多少隻腳? D. 部首: Radical/Writing: 人口人 person The origin of ‘人’。人 "person" as a radical is normally written at the left side of a character (the standing person : 你, 他, ) 口 mouth The origin of ‘口’。 ‘口’ is usually written on the left side of a character. ( 叫)Some of the following characters belong to radical ‘person’; some belongs to ‘mouth’. Copy them down on the space provided below.吹 to blow 眼 eye 進 to enter 吠 to bark 像 image 見 to see 俊 handsome 都 all 美 beautiful 字 word 伴 companion 吃 to eat 伯 uncle 明 bright 味 taste 有 to have 唱 to sing 吵 noisy 喝 to drink 体 body人/ : ______口： ______VII. 文化知識 Culture NotesA. Chinese believe that some numbers are more auspicious than others. Six and Eight represent good fortune for Chinese, much as the number seven is considered a lucky number for Westerners. Westerners consider thirteen to be an unlucky number while for Chinese number 4 is considered unlucky. The pronunciation of number 4 is homophonic (that is it sounds the same) with the word for “death”, and is therefore often avoided.B. 在這裡畫出中國人如何用手語來表達數字 1-10.Magic Chinese - Lesson 2 (Introduction) After the previous experience, Peter’s garage becomes the fixed place where they amuse themselves with the compass. One day, Melissa unintentionally keys in her date of birth: “Here! Look! It’s my birthday.” Tom grabs the compass and turns the outermost circle of the compass to the left. Peter nervously yells: “Wait! Wait!” Suddenly, the screen emits a blinding light that none of them can keep their eyes open. They are so surprised to find that Peter’s garage has vanished after they open their eyes. Instead, the surrounding looks like a middle school sports ground. The students around them are all Easterners look rather like Peter and Linda. With a confused look on their faces, they come up to ask who they are and where do they come from. Peter knows none of his friends understand Chinese language, so he begins to introduce himself. To his amazement, they all can speak the language fluently and none of them understand why.Rei qi wa 瑞奇:「哇! 我在哪裡?」 Lingda zhe 玲達: 「彼得! 這是哪裡? 」 Bi de zhi dao ge xue 彼得: 「我不知道! …是個中學! 」 tangmu wa zhe tai wan le 湯姆: 「哇! 這太好玩了! 」 Xuesheng jia Yi shei zen me lai de 學生甲: 「咦? 你們是誰? 怎麼來的? 」 Xuesheng yi Hai zi 學生乙: 「嗨! 你們叫什麼名字? 是哪裡人? 」 Bi de bi de tangmu li sha rei qi he lingda 彼得: 「你們好! 我叫彼得。他們是湯姆, 麗莎, 瑞奇和玲達。」 Li sha 麗莎: 「我們是美國人。這裡是哪裡? 」 Xuesheng yi tai bei shan xue 學生乙: 「這裡是台北中山中學。」 Bi de yi li sha 彼得: 「咦! 麗莎! 你說中文嗎!? 」 Rei qi zen me hui jia a 瑞奇: 「我們怎麼回家啊? 」Even though they don’t understand what has happened, but they do enjoying talking with the Taiwanese students. Except Reggie is quite nervous about this adventure and keeps thinking about how are they going to go home. Fortunately, Peter finally figures out the reverse process and all of them says goodbye to the students of ZhongShan Middle School in Taipei (台北), Taiwan (台灣).Da jia zai jian zai jian hui jia le 大家: 「再見! 再見! 我們回家了! 」 In a blink of an eye, they are back in Peter’s garage save and sound! Now they realize what a treasure this compass is. They pledge to keep this secret among themselves. 三. 課文詞彙與延展練習 (VOCABULARY) A. 寫字練習我你他們是不好在哪裡叫什麼名美國人說中文嗎B. 課文詞彙我們你們他們 在哪裡? 這是哪裡? 是哪裡人? 你是誰? 叫什麼名字? 我叫 怎麼來的? 怎麼回家?美國台灣台北中山中學美國人大家不知道說中文嗎? 嗨! 哇! 咦! 啊! 太好玩了! 再見!C. 研展練習 Besides the following examples, you can also practice with the terms you’ve learned in Pre-lesson I.

(Using Pre-lesson I to do question 4 and 5) 七. 文化知識 (CULTURE UNDERSTANDING) 中文名字 Chinese name Chinese name always have their family name before their own name. Family name usually composed of one single character, occasionally we can see two characters for family name, such as 歐陽 (Ouyang). The attached list shows you some common Chinese family name (Chart 1). Unlike the first name in English, there is a book of name for parents to choose from, Chinese name is created by parents. The parents will choose either one or two characters that can describe their kids or expectations for their kids. Sometimes the first word is a chosen word according to the generation sequence from a set of characters determined by their ancestor. In this case, people can tell which generation this person is just from looking at his or her name. One can also tell whether they are siblings from the same family based on that chosen word. There are some examples of Chinese names for boys and girls (Chart 2). Can you tell which is more likely for girls? Of course, sometimes we can’t tell the gender simply by looking at a name. A name like 明 (ming, bright or smart) can be either a boy or a girl.英文名字 translated into Chinese. When English name is translated into Chinese, the sound of each syllable is matched with a sound in Chinese character. The Chinese words are chosen in the way that doesn’t carry any special meaning to avoid sounding funny. You can see some American names in Chart 2. Do you like to create a Chinese name for yourself? Write down two or three key words that you would like to have in your characters, in English of course. Your teacher may be able to help you create an authentic Chinese name for you.Chart 1. 百家姓Chart 2. 誰是誰? What is the family name? Can you tell a boy’s name from a girl’s name? 名字: 李國強 Li guoqiang (country and strong) 林美 Lin mei王百俊 Wang baijun (hundred and handsom) 張慧玲 Zhang hui ling (wisdom and delicate) Chart 3. 美國名人Qiaozhi huashengdun niudun ai yin si tan 僑治華盛頓牛頓艾因司坦Lesson 3: Family 我的家人I. Narration 故事情节From the previous ‘teleporting’ experience, the friends realized that the compass had special powers. The following day they gathered in Tom’s garage again. When Tom picked up the compass and turned the outer dial to the right, the light reappeared. Everyone had become used to it, so they closed their eyes waiting for the rays of light to go out. Opening their eyes, they found that they had been transported to Melissa’s garage. Disappointed they hadn’t been transported somewhere more exciting, they went into Melissa’s living room to talk about the compass. Since they hadn’t told their families about the compass yet, Tom asked Melissa if her parents were at home. Melissa gestured at a photo on the wall and said that they were out today. Tom asked if it was an old photo, since he didn’t recognize Melissa’s parents.II. Dialogue 课文对话湯姆：Melissa, 他們是誰啊？Melissa pointed at the people in the photo one by one. 這是我爺爺，這是我奶奶，那是我爸爸和媽媽，這是我哥哥和弟弟，那是我妹妹。我爺爺奶奶都是墨西哥人。湯姆：你會說西班牙話嗎？彼得：当然，她说得很好。瑞奇：你哥哥和弟弟都像你爸爸。 琳達：有兄弟姐妹真好。麗莎：我們都是好朋友，像兄弟姐妹。湯姆：誰要我的姐姐？琳達：甚麼？！你不要你的姐姐。湯姆：不！不！不！我是開玩笑的。III.

Traditionally, no two members of a Chinese family were equal in authority. The senior generation held greater authority than the junior generation, older people held greater authority than younger ones, and men held greater authority than women. Although men and women are far more equal nowadays, it is still true in many families that younger family members are taught to respect their elders. However, elders are also responsible for taking care of those younger than them. For example, you have 4 siblings – two brothers aged 20 and 16, two sisters aged 18 and 14 and yourself, 12 years old. You would address them according to their rank and not their first name. Thus, you would call them 大哥 (big brother)，大姐 (big sister)，二哥 (second brother)，and 二姐 (second sister), but they can simply address you by your name. Familial respect is a core value of Chinese culture that is represented by the concept of xiào 孝 (colloquial: xiàoshùn 孝顺 [孝順]), which is usually translated "filial piety.” In the past, when wills clashed, it was expected (and legally enforced) that the will of a family superior should prevail over the will of a family subordinate. Traditional law held a child's insubordination to a parent was a capital offense, and a daughter-in-law's insubordination to her parents-in-law was grounds for divorce. Of course, much has changed over the years, and such hierarchy is no longer so strictly enforced. However, the ideas of filial piety are still upheld in many Chinese families and also in popular culture. Heroic sacrifice to support one's parents is a commonly recurring theme in Chinese literature.

Narration 故事情节A week had passed and they were back to Peter’s garage, keen to experiment more with the compass. Tom twisted the outer dial even further this time, and it emitted the blinding light once more. This time, when they opened their eyes, they knew they weren’t someplace near home. They were in a barren desert of grey and black sand and pebbles. It was very hot and dry, and there weren’t any plants – not even cactus. Peter said that it looked like pictures of the Gobi Desert that he had seen when studying geography. He proposed that they look around – maybe they were near the town of Tunhuang on the Silk Road! He pointed towards a range of hills that didn’t look that far away, and they agreed to hike up to the top of it. It took longer than they expected, and several hours later they were exhausted and thirsty at the top of a barren hill.II. Dialogue 课文对话湯姆：這裡真不好玩，我又累又渴。琳達：我也好渴，誰有水？ Reggie noticed that the compass was flashing, and he shouted to 彼得：我們都沒有水了，怎麼辦？ get everyone’s attention.

Measure Word (MW) If you count something in Chinese, you need to use a certain measure word to go with a number, similar to English: a cup of flour, one spoon of sugar; or like a school of fish, a flock of birds… However in Chinese almost everything has its own measure word.給我一個蘋果。 (an apple) 請給我一根香蕉。 (a banana) 請給我一片西瓜。 (a slice of watermelon) 我要兩個西瓜。 (two watermelons)Rule of counting 2 (just 2 not 12, not 22): If just simply count the number from 1-10, you pronounce 2 (er4). But if 2 goes with a measure word, then you have to use 兩 (liang 3)兩歲，兩個蘋果，兩個西瓜，兩個姐姐，兩個弟弟，兩個朋友。12 歲，22 個蘋果，24 個西瓜（in teens and twenties you still pronounce 2) 200 is 兩百， 2,000 is 兩千。6. 太～了 to describe degree of something is extremely… 這個蘋果太酸了。這些葡萄太酸了。7. 是～（色）的 is used to identify the color of an object. 蘋果是綠（色）的草莓是紅（色）的橙子是橙（色）的 or 橘子是橘（色）的If I want to say I like green apples, the sentence will be: 我喜歡綠（色）的蘋果。我喜歡吃紫色的葡萄。 8. 想 (Shall we add a grammar note about this word in this lesson?)Let’s review the sentence pattern of asking questions with choice type (introduced in Lesson 4). 渴不渴／餓不餓／好（吃）不好吃／喜（歡）不喜歡你渴不渴？你餓不餓？這個蘋果好不好吃？你喜不喜歡吃葡萄？你喜不喜歡綠色的葡萄？V. 延伸阅读练习：Use a picture of Panda to show black and white colors.Picture of a Mexican piñata to show (紅色、綠色、黃色、藍色、紫色、橙色)我是甚麼？Match the picture with the correct descriptionPicture of a strawberry Picture of grapes Picture of an orange 我家有很多人我很紅我的名字也是我的顏色的我有很多兄弟姐妹我有點酸，有點甜名字。我是小朋友最愛的我們都很像爸爸、媽媽我有（一頂綠色的小帽子：水果。我住在美國的 use a picture of a green hat) Florida.Expansion 延伸练习 : 綠、黃、藍、紫、橙（橘）、黑、白、葡萄怎麼辦知道VI.

It follows the traditional lunar calendar and usually arrives somewhere in late January or early February on the western calendar. Chinese New Year has been called “Spring Festival” traditionally, since spring season is not far after the New Year. This is the most important holiday in China. There are many customs need to be followed, however, different area may have somewhat different traditions. Here are some common ones that all Chinese people. 1. Preparation of Chinese New Year starts about a week before the New Year’s Eve. House cleaning (大掃除), preparation of New Year food (年糕, 糖果), decoration of house (春聯, 春字, 福字, 窗花) and buying new cloth (新衣服) for the family make everyone very busy. 2. During the New Year’s Eve, the whole family will have a big reunion dinner similar to the dinner of Thanksgiving or Christmas Holidays in the West. This is the best meal in a year. The traffic in China before the New Year’s Eve is the busiest of the whole year since everyone wants to go home for this reunion dinner. A whole fish will be served at the end of the dinner and no one will actually touch it. This fish dish will be saved for the next day, the first day in the New Year, to symbolize the beginning of a prosperous new year. Fish (魚) and the word for extra (餘) have the same sound “Yu”. With the help of extra from the previous year, you probably will have a better new year than without it, isn’t? After the dinner, the whole family will stay awake (守歲) by playing games, fireworks and watching the special New Year programs on TV. As soon as the first second of New Year arrives, you’ll hear the loud sound of firecrackers all over the place! 3. The first morning of New Year is an important time to do New Year greetings (拜年) to your elders and friends. Everyone will dress in new cloth to indicate a new beginning. You’ll be served with sweets (糖果) and New Year cake (年糕). These are wishing you a sweeter better year than last year. Kids will get money (壓歲錢) in a red envelope (紅包) from parents and grandparents. You have to say lucky words (吉祥話) like the ones you’ve learned in this lesson. One definitely needs to avoid saying anything that sound like “si, po, or sui” since these sounds are for death, or breaking things. These customs of wishing for luck and avoiding bad luck bring everyone the spirit of a new energized beginning! 4. These days, besides doing New Year greetings inside individual family, people usually have a group greeting at work place to be more efficient. A party time will follow with lots of sweets, door prizes (抽獎) and singing (卡拉ㄡ K) or other entertainment programs. The two famous traditional entertainments are lion dance (舞獅) and dragon dance (舞龍). Some people will go travel in the next few days. The whole celebration of Chinese New Year last about two weeks in China! In the China Towns overall the world, people can also see the Chinese New Year traditions.

It is two interlocked curved shapes within a circle, one white, one black, with a spot of the contrasting color within the head of each. Most people relate it to a sign of peace. Do you know where it is from and what does it really mean?This is an ancient sign from China. More than two thousand five hundred years ago, a very wise man, everybody called him Laozi (老子), started the philosophy of Daoism in China. By observing nature, he found that opposite forces are working harmoniously with each other to maintain a balanced world. For example, night and day always alternate so our Earth has milder climate good enough to have life. The dark side of the yinyan sign, in Chinese is 陰, represents the passive nature, characterized as feminine, negative, soft or darkness of night. The white side in Chinese is 陽, represents the active nature, characterized as masculine, positive, hard or the brightness of day. These opposite nature in Chinese are called 太極 (very extreme). Their interaction is believed to maintain equilibrium and harmony in the universe. It is a good reminder for us to keep a balanced life.The little white dot in the black part of Yinyan sign reminds us never to lose hope, because there is always a spot of light somewhere in the darkness. The little black dot in the white area also reminds us to be alert. Whenever we think our world is so perfect, something may go wrong. So keeps a balanced view will help us to have a better life. So you may say Yinyan is an art of balance!(Note: Can someone help me find a good YinYan sign picture?)( LESSON 9 HOBBIES 我愛打球 Hobbies and Favorite pastimes故事發展 (Narration)Longing to see more of Asia, Melissa suggests that they should all make a trip to Singapore.
