The lesson introduces seven new Chinese characters, focusing on specific words such as “旧” (jiù), which is difficult to translate directly into English but often means “exactly” or “right there.” Key vocabulary words include “干” (gàn) meaning “to do,” “玩” (wán) indicating “to play,” and “球场” (qiúchǎng) referring to a “court” or “ground” for ball games. The lesson ends with a dialogue that demonstrates the use of these characters in sentences, like balancing homework and playing computer games, and planning to meet for basketball at 4 PM.
