中文“四六级”来了!网友给老外出题:我差点没上上上上海的车
China has issued a Chinese language proficiency standard for international learners to evaluate their Chinese language skills and levels in an all-around way and meet the expanding demand for Chinese language learning.
Issued by the Ministry of Education and the State Language Commission, the Standard for Chinese Proficiency in International Chinese Language Education will be implemented from July 1, the ministry said.
学习者中文水平
将被分为“三等九级”
The standard classifies the Chinese proficiency of international learners into three stages and nine levels, using four basic elements of the Chinese language: syllables, characters, vocabulary and grammar to evaluate the learners' abilities, including their listening, speaking, reading, writing and translating and interpreting skills.
从表格中可以看到初等的“一级”,要求考生掌握269个音节,300个汉字,500个词汇和48种语法。
For the lowest grade 1, learners should master 269 syllables, 300 characters, a 500-word vocabulary and 48 grammar points. They should also be able to understand an 80-character conversation, know basic oral expressions, read 100-character material and write 100 characters.
而最高级的“九级”,则要求考生掌握1110个音节,3000个汉字,11092个词汇和572种语法。
For the highest grade 9, learners should know 1,110 syllables, 3,000 characters, have a 11,092-word vocabulary and 572 grammar points. They should also understand 800-character materials at a normal or relatively fast speed, have accurate pronunciation, read 240 characters per minute, write all kinds of essays, including dissertations, and be capable of professional translating and interpreting.
网友热心出题:
学中文,你怕了吗?
Some who have toiled to learn English during school years, even came up with a list of questions labelled as "Level nine" to "intimidate" Chinese learners. To name a few, the colloquial saying "多亏跑了两步,差点没上上上上海的车", which translates into "Thank god I ran for a while. I almost missed the train to Shanghai", seems like a dreadful stammer but demonstrates the flexible usage of the word.
一些在校苦学英语多年的网友甚至按照等级为中文学习者们出了一系列问题。例如这句常见表达,“多亏跑了两步,差点没上上上上海的车”,它的意思就是“多亏我跑了一会儿。我差点错过了去上海的火车”。尽管这句话看起来有点像严重的口吃,但却彰显了词汇的灵活运用。
据中新网报道,目前,全球有70个国家将中文纳入国民教育体系,中国以外正在学习中文的人数约2500万,“十三五”期间全球参加HSK(中文水平考试)、YCT(中小学中文考试)等中文水平考试的人数达4000万人次。
