Beginner Level 初级 (chūjí)
Correct answer: A
Analysis:
A. “漂亮 (Piàoliang)” is the phrase for “Beautiful.”
B. “英俊 (Yīngjùn)” is the phrase for “Handsome.”
C. “太棒了 (Tài bàng le)” is the phrase for “Great.”
D. “好 (Hǎo)” is the phrase for “Good.”
Key learning points:
In the Chinese language, people use “漂亮 (piàoliang)” to describe a woman’s beauty, and use “英俊 (yīngjùn)” to describe a good looking man.
For example:
Tā shì gè yīngjùn de xiǎohuǒzi.
他 是 个 英俊 的 小伙子。
He is a handsome guy.
“太棒了 (tài bàng le)” and “好 (hǎo)” share the same meaning, but “太棒了 (tài bàng le)” carries stronger emotional tones than “好 (hǎo).”
In this Chinese level test, “漂亮” means “beautiful.” “美丽” also can be translate into “beautiful,” which one is right?
Both “漂亮” and “美丽” mean beautiful. But in the phrase “beautiful mind,” we should say “美丽心灵,” not “漂亮心灵.”
