Writing practice

Not Only … But Also: 不但…而且…

You're selling your bike before you leave China. Write an advert (50–120 characters) for your school's noticeboard: why you're selling it, its good points, one small problem, and how to contact you.

  • Add a stronger second point with 不但…而且…
  • Concede a point with 虽然…但是…
  • Give the reason for selling with 因为 or 所以
  • Mention one small problem honestly (只有一个小问题:… or 不过…)

Pick with a tap, a number key or Space. A Chinese keyboard on your device works in the box below too.
