A useful situation
- Your goal: Say what the weather is like and where a place is.
- 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
- cold冷 lěng — cold. today今天degree / adjective linker很cold冷。

- rain下雨 xià yǔ — rain. today今天rain下雨。
- beside旁边 pángbiān — beside. school学校at / in在hospital医院beside旁边。

Match each word with its meaning in this unit.
Use the example sentences to check each word’s meaning in context.
Build the meaning
- For an ordinary description, say today今天degree / adjective linker很cold冷, today is cold. degree / adjective linker很 often supports a neutral adjective description; it does not always mean strongly “very”.
- A place expression can use at / in在: school学校at / in在hospital医院beside旁边, the school is beside the hospital. The adjective pattern and location pattern do different jobs.
For the ordinary adjective description use today今天degree / adjective linker很cold冷. Do not insert to be / is是 just because English says is cold.
Complete “The school is beside the hospital”: 学校____医院旁边。
在 introduces the location.
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.

Why does the text describe an unpleasant outdoor day?
很冷 and 下雨 describe the day; a school closure is not stated.
Speak, write, and review
- Describe today’s weather. Ask a partner where a fictional school is and answer with beside旁边.
- 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: 今天天气how about怎么样？ B: degree / adjective linker很cold冷。 A: school学校at / in在where哪里？ B: at / in在hospital医院beside旁边。
- Write one weather sentence and one location sentence using a different place order.
- 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 what the weather is like and where a place is. Use the examples as support, then try a fresh version. Completing these exercises records practice, not a guarantee of mastery.
