Use the example sentences to check each word’s meaning in context.
Build the meaning
- Put time before the main action in this simple pattern: I / me我tomorrow明天eight o’clock八点go去Shanghai上海. Mandarin does not add an English-style future verb ending here.
- travel by / sit坐train火车 describes transport; go去Shanghai上海 gives the destination. Asking go去where哪里 needs a place; asking how / why怎么go去 needs a method.
Work through a decision: For the plan I / me我tomorrow明天eight o’clock八点travel by / sit坐train火车go去Shanghai上海, separate tomorrow (tomorrow明天), eight o’clock (eight o’clock八点), travel by train (travel by / sit坐train火车) and go to Shanghai (go去Shanghai上海). To answer how / why怎么go去, select travel by / sit坐train火车. To answer go去where哪里, select Shanghai上海. This departure plan gives no arrival time or journey duration.
Compare a plausible mistake: I / me我eight o’clock八点go去Shanghai上海 says I go to Shanghai at eight; I / me我eight o’clock八点to / arrive到Shanghai上海 says I arrive in Shanghai at eight. to / arrive到 means arrive here. Do not use the same time as both departure and arrival unless the situation independently establishes that claim.
at / in在Shanghai上海 gives a location; go去Shanghai上海 gives a destination. Do not answer go去where哪里 with only travel by / sit坐train火车.
Complete “Where are you going?”: 你去____？

去哪里 asks the destination.
The plan is 林安明天七点坐车去医院 — tomorrow Lin An goes to the hospital by vehicle at seven. Someone asks 怎么去 — how will she travel? First identify whether the question requests time, method or destination.
Độ khó 1/5 · 100 xu + một phần thưởng nhỏ cho lần hoàn thành đầu tiên trong ngày
怎么去 asks how she travels, so 坐车 supplies the method. The other details are true within the plan but answer different questions. A true detail is not automatically a relevant reply.
Listen for a fresh detail

Độ khó 1/5 · 100 xu + một phần thưởng nhỏ cho lần hoàn thành đầu tiên trong ngày
今天在学校 refers to today, while the trip is tomorrow.
Read: 王力今天在北京。明天十点坐火车去上海。Which account preserves the places and times?
Độ khó 1/5 · 100 xu + một phần thưởng nhỏ cho lần hoàn thành đầu tiên trong ngày
今天在北京 gives today’s location; 明天十点坐火车去上海 gives tomorrow’s going time, method and destination. 去 does not supply an arrival time. The last choice reverses the cities’ roles.

Write a travel plan with a time, method, and destination. Change the time from the reading.
Compare the meaning and structure with the checklist. Your own response may differ from the model.
Use Mandarin for the new sentences or dialogue. You may explain your reasoning in English. Make a new fictional plan: choose a destination, departure time and method. Write the plan and two different questions that a partner can answer from it. Then name one journey detail your plan does not establish. Speak the questions and replies if working with a partner.
Check each question against the exact phrase that answers it. If you supplied an arrival time from a departure plan, mark it as unknown and revise. Compare meanings rather than copying the model’s itinerary; self-review does not assess pronunciation.
