A useful situation
- Your goal: Say where you are going, when, and how.
- Before you start, recall the words you already know. New words below are here to help, not a list you must master before continuing.
Words you will use
- go去 qù — go. I / me我go去school学校。
- train火车 huǒchē — train. I / me我travel by / sit坐train火车。
- travel by / sit坐 zuò — travel by / sit. I / me我travel by / sit坐train火车go去Shanghai上海。
- Shanghai上海 Shànghǎi — Shanghai. I / me我tomorrow明天go去Shanghai上海。
- eight o’clock八点 bā diǎn — eight o’clock. I / me我eight o’clock八点go去。
Match each word with its meaning in this unit.
Use the example sentences to check each word’s meaning in context.
Build the meaning
- Put time before the main action in this simple pattern: I / me我tomorrow明天eight o’clock八点go去Shanghai上海. Mandarin does not add an English-style future verb ending here.
- travel by / sit坐train火车 describes transport; go去Shanghai上海 gives the destination. Asking go去where哪里 needs a place; asking how / why怎么go去 needs a method.
at / in在Shanghai上海 gives a location; go去Shanghai上海 gives a destination. Do not answer go去where哪里 with only travel by / sit坐train火车.
Complete “Where are you going?”: 你去____？
去哪里 asks the destination.
Listen for a fresh detail
- Listen before revealing the script.
- Replay if you need to. This is practice: if playback is unavailable, use the script as reading and return to listening on a device with Mandarin playback.
Show the listening script and meaning
I / me我tomorrow明天九点travel by / sit坐train火车go去Shanghai上海。
Tomorrow I take a train to Shanghai at nine.
What is the departure time?
九点 gives nine o’clock; no afternoon is stated.

- The reading and listening have different details. Use the material for the question you are answering.
- Read once for the situation, then again for the relevant detail. Reveal help when needed.
Show the reading meaning
Tomorrow Wang Li takes a train to Shanghai at eight. Lin An goes to school by vehicle at nine. Wang Li is at school today.
Where is Wang Li today?
今天在学校 refers to today, while the trip is tomorrow.
Speak, write, and review
- Ask where a partner is going tomorrow and how. Give your own fictional departure plan.
- Record yourself privately or work with a partner. First try without the model, then compare the meaning and structure; a text checker cannot assess your pronunciation.
A: you你tomorrow明天go去where哪里？ B: Shanghai上海。 A: how / why怎么go去？ B: travel by / sit坐train火车。
- Write a travel plan with a time, method, and destination. Change the time from the reading.
- Tomorrow, recall two words and repeat the task with one detail changed. Revisit it after a few days; return sooner to the part that felt difficult.
Say where you are going, when, and how. Use the examples as support, then try a fresh version. Completing these exercises records practice, not a guarantee of mastery.
