1. Basic Sentence Structures | 基本句型结构
Chinese sentences follow Subject–Verb–Object (SVO) order, but time, place, and manner adverbials are placed before the verb. Mastering this structure ensures clarity from the start.
中文句子遵循“主语–动词–宾语”的顺序,但时间、地点和方式状语要放在动词之前。掌握这个结构是表达清晰的基础。
-
Simple declarative: 我吃饭。(I eat.)
简单陈述句:我吃饭。
-
With time adverbial: 我昨天吃饭。(I ate yesterday.) — 昨天 before the verb.
带时间状语:我昨天吃饭。——“昨天”在动词前。
-
With place adverbial: 我在家吃饭。(I eat at home.) — 在家 before the verb.
带地点状语:我在家吃饭。——“在家”在动词前。
-
Questions: Add 吗 for yes/no, interrogative pronouns (什么, 谁, 哪儿) in place of the subject or object.
疑问句:加“吗”表示是非问;疑问代词(什么、谁、哪儿)放在主语或宾语的位置。
2. Use of Structural Particles 的、地、得 | 结构助词的、地、得
These three particles act like ‘connectors’ in formulas: 的 links adjectives to nouns, 地 links adverbials to verbs, and 得 introduces complements of degree.
这三个助词如同公式中的连接符:的用来连接形容词和名词,地连接状语和动词,得引导程度补语。
-
美丽的花 (beautiful flower) — 的 + noun.
美丽的花——“的”+名词。
-
慢慢地走 (walk slowly) — 地 + verb.
慢慢地走——“地”+动词。
-
跑得快 (run fast) — verb + 得 + complement.
跑得快——动词+“得”+补语。
A common error is mixing 的 and 地 in writing; the formula helps: 的 binds description to nouns, 地 binds manner to verbs.
常见错误是在书面语中混淆“的”和“地”;记住公式:的将描写与名词绑定,地将方式与动词绑定。
3. Tone Sandhi Rules | 变调规则
Tone sandhi is the ‘phonetic theorem’ of spoken Chinese. The most important rule is the third-tone sandhi: when two third tones appear together, the first one changes to a second tone in natural speech.
变调是中文口语的“语音定理”。最重要的规则是第三声变调:当两个第三声连在一起时,第一个在自然语流中变为第二声。
-
你(ní) + 好(hǎo) → 你好 is pronounced ní hǎo, like second tone + third tone.
你(nǐ) + 好(hǎo) → 你好读作ní hǎo,近似第二声加第三声。
-
Other examples: 可以 (kě yǐ → ké yǐ), 水果 (shuǐ guǒ → shuí guǒ).
其他例子:可以 (kě yǐ → ké yǐ),水果 (shuǐ guǒ → shuí guǒ)。
The neutral tone (轻声) is another key phenomenon: certain syllables lose their original tone and become short and light, often in particles like 的, 了, 吗 and in repeated syllables.
轻声是另一个关键现象:某些音节失去原本声调,变得短而轻,常见于的、了、吗等助词以及重叠音节。
4. Verb Complements Quick Guide | 动词补语速查
Complements form a ‘result theorem’ — they specify the outcome, direction, or degree of an action. The structure is verb + complement, and the particle 得 is used for degree complements.
补语构成“结果定理”——它们指明动作的结果、方向或程度。结构是动词+补语,程度补语需用“得”连接。
| Type/类型 | Example/例子 | Function/功能 |
|---|---|---|
| Result complement | 看懂 (read and understand) | Indicates the result of an action |
| Direction complement | 走出去 (walk out) | Shows the direction of movement |
| Degree complement | 高兴得跳起来 (so happy that one jumps up) | Describes the degree or extent |
5. 把字句 and 被字句 | 把字句和被字句
The 把 construction follows the formula: Subject + 把 + Object + Verb + Complement. It emphasises what happens to the object and is essential for formal writing.
把字句遵循公式:主语+把+宾语+动词+补语。它强调对宾语的处置,是正式写作中必不可少的句型。
-
我把作业做完了。(I finished the homework — emphasising the homework is dealt with.)
我把作业做完了。——强调作业被完成了。
The 被 construction is the Chinese passive: Object + 被 + Agent + Verb + Complement. It is used when the agent is not the focus or is unknown.
被字句是中文的被动式:宾语+被+施事+动词+补语。当施事不重要或未知时使用。
-
作业被(我)做完了。(The homework was finished (by me).)
作业被(我)做完了。
Remember: 把 and 被 almost always require a complement or additional element after the verb; a bare verb is rarely acceptable.
记住:把和被后面几乎总是需要补语或其他成分,光秃秃的动词通常不成立。
6. Rhetoric Devices Quick Guide | 修辞手法速查
Rhetorical devices are the ‘stylistic theorems’ that add sophistication to essays. The most frequently tested ones include metaphor (暗喻), simile (明喻), personification (拟人), and repetition (反复).
修辞手法是提升文章档次的“风格定理”。最常考的有暗喻、明喻、拟人和反复。
-
明喻 uses 像/好像/仿佛: 时间像流水一样逝去。(Time passes like flowing water.)
明喻用“像/好像/仿佛”:时间像流水一样逝去。
-
暗喻 directly equates two things: 生活是一场旅行。(Life is a journey.)
暗喻直接把两者等同:生活是一场旅行。
-
拟人 gives human qualities to non-human things: 春风温柔地抚摸着大地。(The spring breeze gently caresses the earth.)
拟人赋予非人物体人的特性:春风温柔地抚摸着大地。
-
反复 repeats key words for emphasis: 努力,努力,再努力!(Work hard, work hard, and work harder!)
反复通过重复关键词来加强语气:努力,努力,再努力!
7. Logical Connectors for Writing | 写作逻辑连接词
Connectors are the ‘glue formula’ linking ideas. Using a variety of connectors demonstrates a high level of coherence and is rewarded in the essay marking criteria.
连接词是串联观点的“胶水公式”。善用多样的连接词能体现高度的连贯性,在作文评分中备受青睐。
-
Contrast: 然而 (however), 尽管…却 (although…yet), 与此相反 (on the contrary)
对比:然而、尽管…却、与此相反
-
Cause–effect: 因此 (therefore), 由于 (due to), 从而 (thus)
因果:因此、由于、从而
-
Addition: 不仅如此 (not only that), 此外 (besides), 与此同时 (meanwhile)
递进:不仅如此、此外、与此同时
-
Summary: 总而言之 (in summary), 由此可见 (from this we can see), 综上所述 (in conclusion)
总结:总而言之、由此可见、综上所述
8. Template for Argumentative Essays | 议论文模板
A strong argumentative essay follows a four-part formula: Introduction (introduce topic + thesis), Argument 1 (point + evidence + analysis), Argument 2 (same structure), Conclusion (reiterate thesis + outlook).
一篇有力的议论文遵循四部分公式:引论(引出话题+论点)、论证一(观点+论据+分析)、论证二(相同结构)、结论(重申论点+展望)。
Paragraph structure formula: topic sentence (TS) → supporting evidence (SE) → analysis (A) → link back (L). This T-S-E-A-L chain ensures depth and cohesion.
段落结构公式:主题句(TS)→ 支撑论据(SE)→ 分析(A)→ 回扣(L)。这种 T-S-E-A-L 链确保了深度与衔接。
Stock phrases for each part: ‘随着社会的发展…’ (intro), ‘以…为例’ (example), ‘由此可见,…’ (conclusion).
每个部分的常用套句:引论“随着社会的发展…”,举例“以…为例”,结论“由此可见,…”。
9. Commonly Tested Measure Words | 常考量词
Measure words are a unique ‘accounting theorem’ in Chinese. Every noun must be paired with the correct measure word when counting or specifying.
量词是中文独特的“计量定理”。每个名词在计数或指代时都必须搭配正确的量词。
-
个: universal measure word for people and abstract objects — 一个人, 一个主意
个:通用量词,用于人和抽象事物——一个人,一个主意
-
张: for flat objects — 一张纸 (a sheet of paper), 一张桌子 (a table)
张:用于平面物体——一张纸,一张桌子

In Edexcel reading and writing, precise use of measure words is a mark of accuracy.
在Edexcel阅读和写作中,精确使用量词是准确性的体现。
10. Key Cultural Vocabulary | 文化主题核心词汇
To discuss topics like social changes, environment, and technology, you need a bank of ‘cultural lemmas’. These are high-frequency terms that appear in stimulus texts and essay prompts.
要探讨社会变化、环境、科技等话题,你需要储备一批“文化引理”。这些都是刺激材料和写作提示中的高频术语。

11. Classical Idioms and Fixed Expressions | 成语和固定搭配
Idioms (成语) act as ‘instant eloquence formulas’. Using a well-chosen idiom elevates your language register and shows cultural competence.
成语是“瞬间增色公式”。恰当地使用成语能提升语体层次,展现文化素养。

12. Translation Techniques | 翻译技巧
The translation tasks in Edexcel Chinese require both linguistic precision and cultural awareness. The key formula is: translate meaning, not word for word.
Edexcel中文的翻译题既要求语言准确,又强调文化意识。关键公式是:翻译意思,而非逐字硬译。
-
Amplification: add implied information — 请教 → ‘consult a respected person for advice’ to capture cultural nuance.
增译法:增补隐含信息——请教的翻译可展开为“向有经验的人请教”,以传达文化内涵。

Omission: remove redundant Chinese colocations — 参加活动 often simply becomes ‘join an activity’ without repeating ‘engage’.
省译法:删去冗余搭配——参加活动直接译为“join an activity”,无需逐词。
-
Conversion: change part of speech or sentence structure — 他的成功离不开努力 → ‘His success cannot be separated from his hard work,’ but better as ‘His hard work was the key to his success.’
转换法:改变词性或句式——他的成功离不开努力可意译为“Hard work was the key to his success.”
