Nov. 5 SAT II Chinese

Test Preparation
1

<p>I see threads for Korean and Japanese, but not one for Chinese so I'm going to start one...</p>

<p>How'd you guys do?</p>

<p>What'd you put for that one listening question where the guy said "let's introduce ourselves" and the girl said "okay. my name is blah blah blah"?</p>

<p>I put "it's nice meeting you"...what'd you guys put?</p>

<p>Also, the last or second to last question. Was the ad aimed towards "educators"?</p>

<p>Also, another listening question. The rainy day one and the weather forecast being inacurate. What was the guy complaining about?</p>

<p>Good Job!</p>

<p>Ahh...now I just want someone to help me with the Chinese...LOL</p>

<p>The topic of this thread isn't looking for a Korean thread...</p>

7

<p>umm yes i put educator</p>

<p>there was one (the last question of a section) and it was like
ta _________zun shi, zhi you jin tian li wai.
answer choices
a) xiang lai
b) yi lai
c) something
d) jiang lai
i put jiang lai
what were you supposed to put for that?
and you're supposed to put nice to meet you.
the guy was complaining about how the weather forecaster was inaccurate.</p>

8

<p>I went home and asked my parents. It's xiang lai...like ta yi xiang dou hen zun shi...but for short.</p>

<p>I was stuck on that one too.</p>

<p>For that nice to meet you one, do you remember what choice A was talking about? I wasn't sure if that one was the right one. It was like "I've heard of you before...blah blah blah"</p>

9

<p>Also what was that one about the discounts in the store. Was it the juniors sports clothing or something like that?</p>

10

<p>i couldnt read the title for that one short notice. was it a shipping agency, bookstore, etc. something like that?
and also, one of the questions was about the birthdate. is it month/day/year, or day/month/year or w/e? bc i know my mom writes it differently than Americans, but i forgot...</p>

11

<p>i put the greatest discount was on men's suits, if thats what you mean.</p>

12

<p>i put down the clothes for babies or w/e cuz i learned in chinese school that chinese ppl do discounts differently. So 60% off would be "40 __<strong><em>" Therefore, the men's would actually be the most expensive because the X</em></strong>______ where x was the biggest number and the baby's clothes was 40 which is the smallest</p>

<p>yeah that short notice. i put down shipping company cuz it was "fast delivery" or sumthing and that seemed the most logical. i hope im right.</p>

<p>what was the very last article talking about? i thot it was for college students looking for grad school. although ppl have told me differently. :[</p>

13

<p>oh dang i didnt know about the discount thing. argh, my score's gonna be pretty bad considering im a mostly fluent speaker, grrr. im not sure about that last article either, i thought it was a jobs for 3 educators (as lecturers or something).</p>

14

<p>hey guys, new to the forum. </p>

<p>just took the chinese SAT.
ta _________zun shi, zhi you jin tian li wai.
answer choices
a) xiang lai
b) yi lai
c) something
d) jiang lai</p>

<p>it should be a) cuz i asked some people. but i put b). who knows.</p>

<p>also, i got that it was printing company and that they were looking for educators.</p>

15

<p>I was unsure about the last article too, but the one that was not mentioned was the credit card & expiration date, right?</p>

<p>oh, and it wasn't a shipping company, it was a printing company</p>

<p>also, i got that it was printing company and that they were looking for educators. i thought the teen sport clothes were the cheapest?</p>

17

<p>sorry, i have similar posts. but also, was the weather at tsingdao humid?</p>

<p>also, what was the last ?. cuz i put letter of recommendations. i thought the question was "what is one thing they ask for?" not "what is something they did not ask for"</p>

18

<p>wait, but they asked for the passport too. Isn't that what shen fen is?</p>

<p>and yea, the weather was humid.</p>

19

<p>yeah...I put humid for the tsingdao one.</p>

<p>I put letter of recommendations too. (it wasn't one that they did not ask for...I'm pretty sure).</p>

<p>Also, chinkytwinkie, your other question about the being on time, look above. I answered jay01's question. It's "xiang lai".</p>

20

<p>Also, what you guys put for the one listening one where it was like:</p>

<p>Man: wo men lai zi wo jie shao yi xia ba.
Woman: hao ba. wo de ming zhi shi "blah blah blah".</p>

<p>Did you choose A) oh! wo chang chang ting guo nin de da ming.
or
C) wo zhen gao xing ke yi ren shi ni.</p>
