Presentation Q&A – Week 4


When is the presentation?


Group A: Tuesday, 11th Oct.

Group B: Monday, 10th Oct.


What to talk about?


You run into a friend and start chatting with him/her. You give advice to each other on Chinese
study, and also talk about where you are going, why you are going there, etc. At the end of the
conversation, you make an arrangement together for another meeting.


You should use the following words and phrases in your dialog: 好 + sensory actions
（好吃/好看...），快（快吃/快去…），越（越来越/越-越-…），刚（刚刚/刚才…），多 + v.（多吃/多写…）.


How to do the presentation?


You will come to the front of the classroom to speak. PowerPoint presentation is welcomed, but not
required. Your presentation should be around 5 minutes. Try to keep eye-contact with the audience
all the time. Reading from your script word after word is NOT allowed. Please speak loudly and
clearly. Pay attention to the tones.


What to do as an audience?


You should keep quiet and listen carefully to the speaker during his/her presentation. You are
supposed to prepare a piece of paper and write down responses to the presentations of your
colleagues. Please see below the required format and an example of what it should look like.


Format:


(speaker A)和(speaker B)碰到了。(A/B)想去(somewhere to do something)，因为(reason for doing so)。他们想(some
time)一起去(somewhere to do something)。


(A/B)说：(how to learn Chinese well)。


Example:


王丹和张力碰到了。张力想去银行存钱，因为他的卡丢了，不能刷卡。他们想晚上一起去一个好玩的地方吃饭。


王丹说：多说多练习才能学好中文。


The underlined parts should be customized, using your own words according to the content of each
presentation. You should have one response to each of the presentations. The response should be
written in Chinese characters and submitted to me at the end of the class. During the presentation,
you are free to ask (in Chinese) the speakers to repeat something they have said or any questions
in order to complete your response.
