Part I: Listen and Learn 2

Click on the speaker icon of the following sentences and listen to the recording. The Chinese characters are in big5 format.

1. Zh sh w ddi. [This is my (younger) brother. 這是我弟弟。]
2. T y zi Zhnggu. [He is also in China. 他也在中國。]
3. T sh gngchngsh. [He is an engineer. 他是工程師。]
4. T zi Shnghi gngzu. [He works in Shanghai. 他在上海工作。]

Notes:

'zi'...gngzu' means 'to work somewhere'. 'zi' here serves as a preposition. Pay attention to the position of a prepositional phrase in the sentence. In Chinese it occurs before the verb.
