A shorter wait
- A hospital report describes how a new booking system changed patients' waiting time.
- hospital医院through通过new新course流程,made使patient患者(modifier / structural particle)的等待时间to curtail缩短(completed / change)了half一半。 — "Through a new procedure, the hospital cut patients' waiting time by half."
Subject + through通过 + means + made使 + result
- A through通过 B made使 C … = A, by means of B, makes C …: the subject A does the action, through通过 gives the means, made使 the result.
- The subject must be present: hospital医院 / the school学校 / we / us我们 + through通过….
the school学校through通过this这次event活动made使students学生more更confident自信。

The classic error: no subject
- through通过this这次event活动,made使students学生more更confident自信(completed / change)了 has no subject: through通过 and made使 both lack a doer. This is a standard HSK 6 defective sentence病句.
- Fix it by adding a subject before through通过 (the school学校through通过…made使…) or by dropping made使 (through通过this这次event活动,students学生more更confident自信(completed / change)了).

A hospital report describes how a new booking system changed patients' waiting time. Close the examples. Say a Mandarin response, then write it in Chinese. Explain briefly in English what the lesson’s pattern adds. Compare with the model, then change one detail and try again.
This is supported productive practice. Compare meaning and structure; your answer need not copy the model. A partner or teacher must hear the spoken response to comment on pronunciation.
