About this lesson

After this lesson you can ask for a phone card in a shop, say how much you want to pay, and show your phone for help.

How to practise

  1. Learn the phrases on the first card: these are the lines you will say in the situation.
  2. When you see 你会怎么说？, answer out loud in your own words before the real line plays, then repeat it.
  3. Keep the phrasebook at the end: the phrases, what you will hear, and a tip for the real thing.
