2 Unit 1 Numbers UNIT ONE I. 情節發展 STORYLINE The Magic Chinese journey starts when Melissa and her family go to a flea market and buy what they think are 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

A. 擴展練習 MAGIC EXPANSION a.1 How to say year in Chinese? For the year, say the four digit numbers just like you say the telephone numbers, and end the phrase with 年 (ni2n, the word for year ). For example:

16 Unit 1 Numbers year 1990, 一九九 o 年 y9 ji& ji& l0ng ni2n year 1865, 一八六五年 y9 b1 li* w& ni2n year 2002, 二 oo 二年 8r l0ng l0ng 8r ni2n year 2008, 二 oo 八年 8r l0ng l0ng b1 ni2n year 2012, 二 o 一二年 8r l0ng y9 8r ni2n a.2 How to say month and date in Chinese? The character 月 (yu8, The moon ) stands for month; while 日 (r=, 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 (h4o, number) sometimes replaces 日. Thus, 九月十八號 is also frequently used to 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 February March April 一月 二月 三月 四月 y9 yu8 8r yu8 s1n yu8 s= yu8 May June July August 五月 六月 七月 八月 w& yu8 li* yu8 q9 yu8 b1 yu8 September October November December 九月 十月 十一月 十二月 ji& yu8 sh0 yu8 sh0 y9 yu8 sh0 8r yu8-16 -

19 Magic Chinese a.4 To state the time of the day Simply follow this order: from large to small. day section + hour + minute For example: 9:10 AM 上午九點十分 3:20 PM 下午三點二十分 Now, write down the following times in Chinese pinyin:

20 Unit 1 Numbers B. 語法註解 GRAMMAR NOTES b.1 Difference between 一月 and 一個月 The word 個 (g8) is a generic measure word. So while 一個月 (y0 g8 yu8) means one month, 一月 means January. For example: 一個月有三十天 Y0 g8 yu8 y#u s1n sh0 ti1n. There are thirty days in a month. as opposed to 一月有三十一天 Y9 yu8 y#u s1n sh0 y9 ti1n. There are thirty-one days in January. b.2 Special rules of counting 年 (ni2n)" and 星期 (x9ngq9)" When counting the number of years 年 ", please never take a measure word. Thus, a year is 一年 " rather than 一個年 "

21 Magic Chinese For example: 一年有三百六十五天 Y= ni2n y#u s1n b3i li* sh0 w& ti1n. There are 365 days in a year. The word for week 星期 " on the other hand, takes measure word 個 " as a counter sometimes. For example: 三個星期有二十一天 S1n g8 x9ngq9 y#u 8r sh0 y9 ti1n. There are 21 days in three weeks. Now, can you translate the following into Chinese pinyin? There are 366 days in the year There are 29 days in February this year There are four weeks in a month. There are 52 weeks in a year

30 Unit 1 Numbers 文化知識 CULTURAL NOTES A. 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. 6 represent 順,8 represent 發 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.
