A decision before an answer
- 吗 and 妈 share 马 but differ in the left component. The spoken tone and sentence role decide which character you need.
- Your goal: Complete a character by identifying its missing component.

Read the relationship
- The new level-two sample adds ten writing items to twenty-five listening and twenty-five reading items. Writing is ten minutes. Its first five writing items require completing a character component; the next five ask for a character within a pinyin-supported sentence. This is a real writing requirement even though the legacy level-two sample has no writing section.
- Use sentence meaning and pinyin to choose the required character.
Which component completes 妈 on the left?
女 plus 马 forms 妈; 口 plus 马 forms 吗.
Use the defining rule
- A component contributes to a character but is not automatically a whole character or a reliable translation. In 妈, 女 occupies the left and 马 the right. In 吗, 口 replaces 女. Observe the position and shape, then write the complete target. Handwriting must remain recognisable; merely naming the component does not demonstrate writing.
- Distinguish component practice from free composition.
Use the defining rule
- A component contributes to a character but is not automatically a whole character or a reliable translation. In ma妈, archaic variant of 汝女 occupies the left and horse马 the right. In (yes/no ?)吗, mouth口 replaces archaic variant of 汝女. Observe the position and shape, then write the complete target. Handwriting must remain recognisable; merely naming the component does not demonstrate writing.
- Distinguish component practice from free composition.
你好吗？ ends with which character?
吗 marks the question; 妈 means mother.
Check the conditions
- For character filling, read the sentence before selecting the graph. 你好吗？ needs the question particle 吗, whereas 我妈妈很好 needs 妈. Pinyin identifies sound and tone, but homophones make meaning and grammar essential. Copy the missing character in the answer position, not the whole romanised syllable.
- Distinguish component practice from free composition.
Original component exercise: complete 妈 from 女 + 马, then compare 吗 from 口 + 马. Original sentence: “你 hǎo 吗？” → 你好吗？ The blank is 好; “我 māma 很好” contains 妈妈, not 吗吗. Sound, function and component position agree.
Check the conditions
- For character filling, read the sentence before selecting the graph. hello你好(yes/no ?)吗？ needs the question particle (yes/no ?)吗, whereas I / me我mama妈妈very很good好 needs ma妈. Pinyin identifies sound and tone, but homophones make meaning and grammar essential. Copy the missing character in the answer position, not the whole romanised syllable.
- Distinguish component practice from free composition.
Original component exercise: complete ma妈 from archaic variant of 汝女 + horse马, then compare (yes/no ?)吗 from mouth口 + horse马. Original sentence: “you你 hǎo (yes/no ?)吗？” → hello你好(yes/no ?)吗？ The blank is good好; “I / me我 māma very很good好” contains mama妈妈, not (yes/no ?)吗(yes/no ?)吗. Sound, function and component position agree.
Write the character for hǎo in 你____吗？
好 fits the greeting and the given sound.
Apply the task format
- The official sample writing paper numbers items 51–60, while its answer file labels the corresponding series 54–63. This mismatch is documented and the writing key is held for teacher review. The original examples here were checked independently. Do not apply the shifted official labels to automatic marking or silently modify the source key.
- Distinguish component practice from free composition.
Pinyin is evidence of pronunciation, not permission to ignore tone or sentence meaning. The published key numbering mismatch must stay visible.
Which answer fits this case?
Complete a character by identifying its missing component
The new level-two writing section can be replaced by speaking the pinyin.
It requires written character responses.
