Unit 18 review

A culture website runs readers' reviews. Write one (300–500 characters) of a film, series, concert, play or exhibition you saw. Say briefly what it is and who made or stars in it, tell the most memorable moment as a short story, give its strengths and one weakness, and end with a recommendation.

  • The basics: 由…主演 / 导演, 讲述了, and the genre or subject (喜剧, 悲剧, 题材)
  • A memorable moment told as a story: 了 on the events that move it forward, 着 for the scene, and a timing word (顿时, 随即, 一下子)
  • A reaction you couldn't help: 忍不住, 不禁 or 不由得
  • Evaluation and structure: 感人 / 打动, 欣赏, 美中不足的是, and a closing recommendation (值得一看)

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