请再说一遍。
Please say it again.
Day 56 of 57 · Week 8 · China simulation II
Final practical assessment
Finish one listening, one reading and two scenario rounds without hints. Record a five-minute conversation; self-assess repair and clarity.
Start with the guided teaching
Move from a memorized introduction to recognizing the question that comes next.
A question word replaces the missing information. 你是美国人 is “you are American.” 你是哪里人 asks “you are a person from where?” Keep the word 哪里 in that slot.
Introduce yourself and catch a question — complete guided explanation
Do the work in five passes
- Listen and pronounce — 25 min · shadow 6 phrases; compare a recording.
- Read and recognize — 25 min · complete the guided teaching, then read today’s words.
- Build and speak — 25 min · build a guided request; then make 10 variations.
- Solve a situation — 25 min · practice both sides, then hide the hints.
- Retrieve and review — 20–80 min · due review, quizzes, and a spoken recap.
Completion records effort; quiz results measure recognition. Neither proves conversational fluency. Use the interactive trainer for review scheduling and saved progress.
Today’s sentence machinery
A little and again
