4. How did the character of “mountain” develop over time? Can you give any other examples?

The pictograph for a mountain was originally three peaks together. Then this became one peak and three lines and finally turned into the character we use today. There are some other examples such as ‘eye’, ‘sun’, and ‘moon’.

Step 4  Read the passage again and divide the passage into several parts, then give the main idea of each part.

Para. 1.   Brief introduction of Chinese characters.

Para. 2.   The origins of Chinese characters.

Para.3-6  Form and development of Chinese characters.

Para. 7-8  Pronunciation of Chinese characters and simplified Chinese characters

Step 5  Designing a booklet

(1) Planning

Ask students to work in small groups and discuss the Chinese characters their group would like to research. Then they should discuss the layout of the booklet, and divide the work each group member will do to collect the information needed.

(1)                Preparing

Look for information in as many sources as they can find. Then they meet, discuss and choose the information each group member has collected.

(3) Producing

Students each write a section of the booklet. They should put what they have written together and add photos or illustrations. They must proofread the draft to correct mistakes if there are any. New ideas can be added. Now the booklet is finished.

(4) Presenting

Students present their booklet to the whole class by taking turns to talk about each section of their booklet. Everyone in each group should have a chance to speak.

Step 6  Language points

1. The way a written language developed can tell us just as much about a culture as the history of a spoken language. 一种书面语言的发展方式, 能告诉我们关于一种口语的历史,同样也告诉我们文化方面的东西.

l                       我不喜欢他对待孩子的方式.     I don’t like the way he treats his child.

l                       他解决问题的方式很奇特.       The way he solved the problems was strange.

2. The Chinese language differs from many Western languages in that it uses characters which have meanings and can stand alone as words. 汉语与很多西方语言不同, 区别在于汉语使用的基本单位汉字本身就具有意义.

differ from不同于; 有区别 = be different from

l                       Men are alike in their promises. It is only in their deeds that they differ (from each other).

人在许诺时都一样,不同之处在于他们的行动.

l                       I’m sorry to differ from/ with you about that question.

对不起, 关于这个问题我与你的看法不同.
