Romanized Supplement to Elementary Chinese Reader
INTRODUCTION
The School of Language Studies, Foreign Service Institute, Department of State has
found the Elementary Chinese Reader * to be both a useful reading text and a valuable
source of current Standard Chinese spoken usage.
Therefore, to enhance its applicability, the Chinese staff of the Foreign Service Institute
has produced a romanized supplement for Lessons 11-20 so that students who have no
immediate need to develop reading skills may also make full use of this text.
It is hoped that this effort will be looked upon as an additional aid to S tudents using the
Elementary Chinese Reader.
Published by The Chinese Language Teaching Staff of the Peking Diplomatic Personnel
Service Bureau, 1972.

there is a street where there is a trolley bus service to the
city. Transport is very convenient.
La semaine dernière, Li Ming m'a téléphoné. Il m'a
dit qu'il avait emménagé dans une maison nouvellement
construite et m'a demandé d'y aller le voir.
Hier, c'était dimanche, je me suis rendu chez lui. A
mon arrivée, Li Ming lisait le "Renmin Ribao" et ses
deux enfants jouaient aux échecs. Sa femme n'était pas
à la maison, elle était sortie pour faire des achats.
Li Ming m'a dit qu'il avait vu mercredi dernier la
pièce modèle révolutionnaire "Cha Kia Pang". Je lui ai
demandé où il l'avait vue. Il m'a dit que c'était au
Théâtre de la Capitale.

the colour film "The Red Lantern" which was taken on the

basis of the modern revolutionary Peking opera of the same
name. The film has manifested the heroic and indomitable
spirit of struggle, in the face of the enemy, of the three gen-
erations of a family: Grand-ma Li, Li Yu-ho and Li Tieh-
mei. It left me a very deep impression.
Although my Chinese is not good and did not unders-
tand it too well, yet the performance of the actors is so touch-
ing and the colour so beautiful that I would like to see it
again if there is a chance.

Dimanche dernier, dans la matinée, je suis allé voir
le film en couleurs "Le Fanal Rouge", en compagnie de
quelques amis. Ce film a été tourné d'après l'opéra de
Pékin à thème révolutionnaire contemporain "Le Fanal
Rouge". Il traduit l'esprit héroïque et inflexible de lutte
dont les trois générations d'une famille: Li Nai Nai
(grand'mère Li), Li Yu-ho et Li Tié-mei font preuve devant
l'ennemi. Ce film m'a laissé une très profonde impression.
Bien que mon niveau de chinois ne soit pas élevé
et que je ne l'aie pas bien compris, les acteurs jouent
d'une manière si émouvante et les couleurs sont si belles
que j'aimerais le voir encore une fois si j'en ai l'occasion.

We visited the Szu Chi Ching (Ever-Green) People's
Commune today. When we arrived there, the Commune
members, men and women, were working joyously, and
crops were growing thrivingly in the fields. I went to see
an old poor peasant who is now over sixty years old and in
excellent health.
He told me that he had worked in the fields for more
than thirty years. Before (liberation), he worked for
landlords everyday from early in the morning till late at
night. But all the year round he suffered from hunger
and cold and was subjected to all kinds of exploitation and
oppression.
After liberation, land was allotted to his family and
since then they have been living a very happy life. Point-
ing to the crops in the fields, he said: "This year another
bumper harvest is expected. The members of the Com-
mune are all working enthusiastically. Now things have
changed. We work for the revolution. We will definitely
follow Chairman Mao forever and produce more grains
to support the world revolution."
In the Commune, we also visited factories and schools.
We were warmly welcomed by workers, teachers and pupils.
At five o'clock in the afternoon, we returned to the
Diplomatie Flats by car.
That was a day well spent.
179
Nous avons visité aujourd'hui la commune populaire
Se-Tsi-Tsing (Vert-en-Quatre-Saisons). Quand nous som-
mes arrivés, les membres de la commune, hommes et
femmes, travaillaient joyeusement. Les récoltes poussaient
très bien dans les champs. J'ai rendu visite à un vieux
paysan pauvre qui a plus de soixante ans, mais-en très bonne
santé.
Il m'a dit qu'il cultivait la terre depuis plus de trente
ans. Jadis, travaillant pour les propriétaires fonciers, il
devait se lever tôt et'se coucher tard. Mais malgré cela,
il souffrait de la faim et du froid toute l'année durant et
était soumis à toutes sortes d'exploitation et d'oppression.
Après la libération, des terres ont été allouées à sa famil-
le et on mène une vie très heureuse. Montrant les récoltes
dans les champs, il m'a dit: "Cette année, ce sera encore
une bonne année! Les membres de la commune travail-
lent tous avec enthousiasme. Maintenant, ce n'est plus
comme par le passé, c'est pour la révolution que nous cul-
tivons la terre. Nous sommes décidés à suivre à jamais le
président Mao et à produire davantage de céréales pour
soutenir la révolution mondiale."
A la commune, nous avons encore visité une fabrique
et une école où les ouvriers, les instituteurs et les élèves nous
ont réservé un accueil chaleureux.
A cinq heures de l'après-midi, nous sommes rentrés
en voiture à la Maison diplomatique.
Nous avons passé une journée pleine de signification.

Last Sunday, I went to the Summer Palace with Li
Ming. The Summer Palace, in the western suburbs of
Peking, is a very beautiful park. A number of lofty
buildings in the urban districts can be seen from the top
of the Longevity Hill. Many people were rowing on the
Kunming Lake. The lake is very large. People can swim
210
in summer and skate in winter there. There is also the beau-
tiful Long Corridor where sightseers usually rest. During
holidays, a very great multitude of people come to the
Summer Palace for recreation.
Just like other parks, before liberation, the Summer
Palace was a place of pleasure for the ruling class. After
liberation, people have become masters of the country
and the Summer Palace has become more beautiful. Now
it is a nice place for sightseeing and rest for the working
people.
Dimanche dernier, j'ai fait une promenade au Palais
d'Eté avec Li Ming. Le Palais d'Eté, situé dans la banlieue
ouest de Pékin, est un très beau parc. Du haut de la colline
de la Longévité, on peut apercevoir beaucoup de grands bâti-
ments de la région urbaine. Sur le lac Kunming, il y a beau-
coup de gens qui rament. Le lac est très grand, où l'on peut
nager en été et patiner en hiver. Il y a encore une belle
Galerie couverte où se reposent souvent les promeneurs.
Pendant les jours fériés, les gens qui viennent se promener
dans ce parc sont excessivement nombreux.
Avant la libération, tout comme les autres parcs, le
Palais d'Eté était un lieu de promenade pour la classe domi-
nante. Après la libération, le peuple étant devenu maître
du pays, le Palais d'Eté s'est embelli. Maintenant il est
un bon lieu de promenade et de repos pour les travailleurs.

At the invitation of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs

and Honan between April 10 and 22. They visited facto-
ries, people's communes, hospitals and the Red Banner
Canal of Lin County in Honan Province. The completion
of the Red Banner Canal has manifested the revolutionary
220
spirit of self-reliance and the arduous struggle of the people
of Lin County.
In Canton, the diplomats visited the former site of the
Institute of Peasants' Movement sponsored by Chairman
Mao in the old days and the Canton Export Commodities
Fair. During the whole course of visiting, they were
warmly received by the responsible personnel of the Revo-
lutionary Committees and the revolutionary masses of the
respective provinces and cities.
Au printemps de 1971, sur l'invitation du Ministère des
Affaires étrangères de la République populaire de Chine,
nombre de diplomates des ambassades et des bureaux des
chargés d'affaires accrédités en Chine ont fait, du 10 au
22 avril, un tour dans les provinces du Houpei, du Kouang-
tong et du Honan. Ils ont visité des usines, des communes
populaires, des hôpitaux et le canal du Drapeau Rouge du
district Ling, province du Honan. La réalisation du canal
du Drapeau Rouge témoigne de l'esprit révolutionnaire de
la population du district Ling, esprit qui consiste à compter
sur ses propres forces et à lutter avec endurance.
A Canton, les diplomates ont visité l'ancien siège de
l'Institut du mouvement paysan dirigé à l'époque par le
président Mao, ainsi que la Foire de Canton. Durant
toutes leurs visites, ils ont reçu un accueil chaleureux et
amical de la part des responsables des comités révolution-
naires et des masses révolutionnaires de diverses provinces
et municipalités.

Pronunciation Guide
The above positional words all function as nouns. They may follow the verb
zai "be located at" or precede the verb you "there is or are," i.e.:
It's on top.
Zai shangbianr.
Is there anyone inside?
Litou you meiyou rén?
Phrases such as "outside the restaurant," "in front of the hospital" will
appear in Chinese word order as "restaurant's outside," "hospital's front (side),"
i.e.:
outside the restaurant
fànguanr waibianr
in front of the hospital
yiyuan qiántou
When a position is closely related to the modifying noun, the suffix -bianr
or -tou is dropped and the positional word is attached to the modifying
noun, i.e.:
in the school
xuexiaoli
on or in bed
chuangshang

2. Q: Where is he drinking wine?

A: He is drinking some at the
Ta zai fànquanrli he Jiu.
restaurant.
Substitute the following:
guest house
tea
Ta zài binguanli he cha.
hotel
soft drink
Tá zai fàndianli he qishui.
home
coffee
Ta zài jiali he kafei.
3. Q: Where does the doctor see
Yisheng zai nar kan bing?
his patients?
A: At the clinic.
Zài zhensuo kan bing.
Q: Where does the doctor
Yisheng zai nar kai dao?
operate?
A: At the hospital.
Zai yiyuanli kai dão.
In the above pattern we notice that zai and its "location word" form a
prepositional phrase modifying the main verb and object. Zai in this construc-
tion is called a coverb, i.e. Ta zai jiali chi fan, "he eats at home". In the
sentence WO dao fandian qu, "I am going to the hotel, " dào fàndian is a
coverbial phrase. At the beginning of this section, the new vocabulary words
kuaidz "use chopsticks" were introduced. With these words we can form
yong the sentence Ta yong kuaidz chi fan, "he eats with chopsticks." Here yong kuajdz
also functions as a coverbial phrase such as those illustrated above. Chinese
has about ten common coverbs. Most of these may function either as coverbs
or regular verbs depending upon how they are used. Bear in mind that all
coverbial phrases in Chinese come before the main verb while in English
prepositional phrases usually follow the main verb.

very much.
Host: Oh! You are very polite. Ou! Ni tai keqi.
/ou! ni tai kechi/
Meiyou shenmo. Literally, "no have what." This expression is a polite
answer to a compliment by the guest to the host on the selection of so many
delicious dishes of food. The host answers by saying that there aren't very
many.
2 Duibuqi! in this situation means that the individual is asking to be
excused from emptying his glass. Suiyi "as we prefer" implies that either one
can do as he wishes. It is perfectly alright to just touch the lips with the
cup if you don't want to drink which is better than an outright refusal. If the
host insists on your drinking more than touching the lips with the cup, then you
can say duibuqi, wo buhui he jiu, "excuse me, I don't know how to drink" which
is to say "I am a teetotaler."

3 Busong, busong! It is considered polite for the host to see his guest
to the door of the restaurant, hotel or to the gate of the wall surrounding
one's home or place of business. The guest will demur along the way by saying
busong, busong "don't bother to accompany me any further." It is possible,
however, for the host to reach the point of departure and use the same expression.
When the host says busong, busong it then means "excuse me for not accompanying
you any further."
4Manzoul (literally "walk slowly") as a polite expression implies that
the host wishes you a safe trip back. It is a carryover from earlier days
when one walked home in the dark and might stumble and fall if one was in a
hurry.
