INTEGRATED REVIEW TASKS

Prepare For In-Class Integrated Review

Integrated Review

STEP 1: Identify organizational devices

Please underline the organizational devices that connect a string of thoughts and ideas in the following two passages entitled “比较四合院与公寓” and 大兴机场。For each passage, underline 2-3 points that you feel most impressed by and explain why.

传统四合院与公寓有很多差异(=差别)。首先,在方向方面,传统四合院坐北朝南,大门位于东南方,而公寓面向东南西北都可以。其次(=再则),单层四合院的房间(数)比单层公寓(更)多,面积也大多了。除此之外,四合院遵循许多传统建筑规则,比如说,庭院在中间, 周围是房屋,有回廊,圆形拱门,也有各式各样古色古香的艺术装饰。相比之下,现代公寓简单多了,没有什么建筑特色。总而言之,四合院的建筑历史悠久,象征不同的文化寓意,不是三言两语可以说完的。

 

大兴机场是网红打卡之地,被誉为世界新七大奇迹之首,有三个特点让我印象最深刻(=下面三个特点让我印象最深刻)。首先,/第一个特点是机场的设计有摩登的风格。机场看起来像一个高级购物中心,天花板看起来很自然,像金色的瀑布。餐馆的菜不但不贵,而且很高档。机场的建筑像是浮动的水母、绽放的鲜花,像是在动,而实际上是静止的。其次,/第二个特点是无纸化跟机器人。刷脸、值机、过安检只要20分钟。另外,机器人不会透露乘客的航班讯息,能保护个人的安全和隐私。最后,/第三个特点是中国速度。网速非常快,在机场有5G,把视频上传到手机上,只要7秒。最特别的是,机场只用了四年多的时间就建好了。高科技对机场各方面的速度非常有益。

STEP 2: Add more thoughts to compare

The above passage about 四合院 concludes with the sentence “不是三言两语可以说完的.”  Now it’s your turn to add 2-3 aspects of differences between these two styles of house design.  Refer to the following to demonstrate a diversity of accurate use of grammatical structures.

  1. A比B + (更) adjective
  2. A比B + adjective (得多/多了,一点儿)
  3. A 比较 (relatively is an adverb here) + adjective
  4. A没有B那么adjective = A 不如B +adjective
  5. 拿A跟B比较/相比, A/B…… (comparing A with B; 比较and相比 are verbs here)
  6. 相比之下,A/B…… (By contrast; an independent phrase that occurs before a clause or a complete sentence)

Note: 比较 in 3 is an adverb that occurs before an adjective, whereas 比较 in 5 is a verb.

The above passage about 大兴机场 highlights what make visitors feel most impressed by. Please use the above structures to compare it with an airport that you visited in the US.

STEP 3: Agree or Disagree?
