二、完成句子 Fill in the blank
这是谁的铅笔?
zhè shì shéi de qiān bǐ
Whose pencil is this?
💡 To ask whose something is, say 谁的 (who's): 谁的铅笔. 哪里 asks where, 几 asks how many.
你今年几岁了?
nǐ jīn nián jǐ suì le
How old are you this year?
💡 Age is a number, and 几 asks for a small number: 几岁 (how old).
妈妈去哪里了?
mā ma qù nǎ lǐ le
Where did Mum go?
💡 去 (to go) needs a place, so the question word is 哪里 (where).
你吃饭了吗?
nǐ chī fàn le ma
Have you eaten?
💡 The answer is yes or no, so the sentence ends with 吗. 呢 is for "and you?" after something has been said.
我喜欢画画,你呢?
wǒ xǐ huan huà huà nǐ ne
I like drawing. What about you?
💡 你呢 means "and you?": it asks the same thing back without saying it again.
谁在敲门?
shéi zài qiāo mén
Who is knocking at the door?
💡 To ask which person, use 谁 (who).
你的家在哪里?
nǐ de jiā zài nǎ lǐ
Where is your home?
💡 To ask about a place, use 哪里 (where).

💡 几 asks "how many" and comes before the measure word 个.
你想吃什么?
nǐ xiǎng chī shén me
What do you want to eat?
💡 To ask about a thing, use 什么 (what).
这本书好看吗?
zhè běn shū hǎo kàn ma

💡 For a yes-or-no question, put 吗 at the end.

wǒ shì xiǎo huá nǐ ne
I'm Xiaohua. And you?
💡 To ask the same thing back ("and you?"), use 呢.
三、改病句 Correct the sentence
病句:你叫什么名字吗?
nǐ jiào shén me míng zi ma
What is your name? (with an extra 吗)
改正:你叫什么名字?
nǐ jiào shén me míng zi
What is your name?
💡 A question with 什么 is already a question, so it does not take 吗 at the end.
病句:你几岁吗?
nǐ jǐ suì ma
How old are you? (with an extra 吗)
改正:你几岁了?
nǐ jǐ suì le
How old are you?
💡 几 already asks the question, so 吗 is not needed: 你几岁了?
病句:这是谁书包?
zhè shì shéi shū bāo
Whose school bag is this? (missing 的)
改正:这是谁的书包?
zhè shì shéi de shū bāo
Whose school bag is this?
💡 "Whose" is 谁的: the 的 goes right after 谁.
病句:你去哪里吗?
nǐ qù nǎ lǐ ma
Where are you going? (with an extra 吗)
改正:你去哪里?
nǐ qù nǎ lǐ
Where are you going?
💡 哪里 is already a question word, so the question needs no 吗.
病句:你喜欢吃苹果什么?
nǐ xǐ huan chī píng guǒ shén me
Do you like eating apples? (什么 in the wrong place)
改正:你喜欢吃苹果吗?
nǐ xǐ huan chī píng guǒ ma
Do you like eating apples?
💡 This is a yes-or-no question, so it ends with 吗; 什么 asks "what" and does not fit here.
病句:你有几个人家?
nǐ yǒu jǐ gè rén jiā
How many people are in your family? (words out of order)
改正:你家有几个人?
nǐ jiā yǒu jǐ gè rén
How many people are in your family?
💡 The order is 你家 (your family) + 有 + 几个人 (how many people).
病句:我很好,你吗?
wǒ hěn hǎo nǐ ma
I'm fine. And you? (吗 instead of 呢)
改正:我很好,你呢?
wǒ hěn hǎo nǐ ne
I'm fine. And you?
💡 To ask the same thing back ("and you?"), use 呢, not 吗.
