1. Maths in German: Numbers and Operations | 数学中的德语:数字与运算
Numbers form the foundation of many cross-curricular tasks. In CCEA German assessments, you may be asked to read aloud a phone number, solve a simple addition problem, or interpret a price tag. Remember that German uses a comma for decimal points and a period or space for thousands separators. For example, €1.500,75 means one thousand five hundred euros and seventy-five cents.
数字是许多跨学科任务的基础。在 CCEA 德语测试中,你可能需要朗读电话号码、解答简单的加法题或解读价格标签。请记住,德语用逗号表示小数点,用句点或空格表示千位分隔。例如,€1.500,75 表示一千五百欧元七十五欧分。
When doing addition, the phrase 'plus' is und, 'minus' is minus, 'equals' cht. Example: 13 + 27 = 40 → Dreizehn plus siebenundzwanzig ist vierzig. You will also see 'mal' for multiplication and 'geteilt durch' for division. Practice writing out simple equations in full.
进行加法运算时,“加”用 und,“减”用 minus,“等于”用 ist gleich 或 macht。示例:13 + 27 = 40 → Dreizehn plus siebenundzwanzig ist vierzig。你还会看到乘法用 mal,除法用 geteilt durch。请练习完整写出简单算式。
- English: What is 45 + 58? Write the answer in German words.
- 中文:45 + 58 等于多少?用德语单词写出答案。
- English: Translate into German: 'Three times eight is twenty-four'.
- 中文:将句子翻译成德语:“三乘以八等于二十四”。
2. Geography: German-Speaking Countries and Capitals | 地理:德语国家及其首都
The German-speaking world includes Germany (Deutschland), Austria (Österreich), Switzerland (die Schweiz), Liechtenstein, and parts of Belgium and Luxembourg. Knowing the names and capitals in German is essential for map-reading exercises. For instance, the capital of Germany is Berlin, but the capital of Austria is Wien (Vienna). Switzerland's capital is Bern, not Zürich – a common mistake.
德语世界包括德国 (Deutschland)、奥地利 (Österreich)、瑞士 (die Schweiz)、列支敦士登,以及比利时和卢森堡的部分地区。了解这些国家和首都的德语名称对于地图阅读练习至关重要。例如,德国的首都是 Berlin,而奥地利的首都是 Wien(维也纳)。瑞士的首都是 Bern,而不是 Zürich——这是一个常见错误。
You might be asked to describe the location of a city using prepositions. For example: 'Berlin liegt im Osten von Deutschland.' (Berlin is in the east of Germany). Directional terms: Norden (north), Süden (south), Osten (east), Westen (west). Practice labeling a blank map with the country and capital names in German.
你可能会被要求用介词描述城市的位置。例如:'Berlin liegt im Osten von Deutschland.'(柏林位于德国东部)。方位词:Norden(北)、Süden(南)、Osten(东)、Westen(西)。练习在一张空白地图上用德语标注国家和首都名称。
- English: Name the capital of Austria in German and describe its location within the country.
- 中文:用德语说出奥地利的首都,并描述它在该国的位置。
- English: Which German-speaking country has four official languages? Answer in German.
- 中文:哪个德语国家有四种官方语言?用德语回答。
3. History: Important Dates and Events | 历史:重要日期与事件
Expressing years and historical events in German requires ordinal numbers and the past tense. For example, the fall of the Berlin Wall happened in 1989 – 'Die Berliner Mauer fiel im Jahr neunzehnhundertneunundachtzig.' Notice the year is spoken as a single long word. When writing centuries, German uses 'Jahrhundert' – the 20th century is 'das 20. Jahrhundert'.
用德语表达年份和历史事件需要使用序数词和过去时态。例如,柏林墙倒塌发生在 1989 年——'Die Berliner Mauer fiel im Jahr neunzehnhundertneunundachtzig.' 注意,年份被读作一个长单词。书写世纪时,德语用 Jahrhundert——20 世纪是 'das 20. Jahrhundert'。
You may be asked to match dates to events or to write a short sentence about a historical figure. Useful phrases: 'wurde geboren' (was born), 'starb' (died), 'gründete' (founded). Example: Johann Sebastian Bach wurde 1685 geboren.
你可能会被要求将日期与事件配对,或写一句关于某个历史人物的简短句子。实用短语:'wurde geboren'(出生)、'starb'(去世)、'gründete'(建立)。示例:Johann Sebastian Bach wurde 1685 geboren。
- English: Write the date 1871 in German words and link it to the founding of the German Empire.
- 中文:用德语单词写出 1871 年,并将其与德意志帝国的建立联系起来。
- English: Translate: 'The First World War ended in 1918.'
- 中文:翻译:“第一次世界大战于 1918 年结束。”
4. Science: Animals and Plant Classification | 科学:动植物分类
In Science lessons, you learn about different categories of living things. German vocabulary for this topic includes 'das Tier' (animal), 'die Pflanze' (plant), 'der Säuger' (mammal), 'der Vogel' (bird), 'der Fisch' (fish), and 'das Insekt' (insect). Describing characteristics uses adjectives such as 'warmblütig' (warm-blooded) or 'kaltblütig' (cold-blooded).
在科学课上,你学习不同类别的生物。与该主题相关的德语词汇包括 das Tier(动物)、die Pflanze(植物)、der Säuger(哺乳动物)、der Vogel(鸟)、der Fisch(鱼)和 das Insekt(昆虫)。描述特征时使用形容词,如 warmblütig(温血的)或 kaltblütig(冷血的)。
A typical task could involve labelling a diagram of a plant. Key terms: 'die Wurzel' (root), 'der Stängel' (stem), 'das Blatt' (leaf), 'die Blüte' (flower). You can also construct food chains – 'Die Raupe frisst das Blatt.' (The caterpillar eats the leaf.)
一个典型的任务可能是标注植物图。关键词:die Wurzel(根)、der Stängel(茎)、das Blatt(叶)、die Blüte(花)。你还可以构建食物链——'Die Raupe frisst das Blatt.'(毛毛虫吃叶子。)
- English: Classify the following into groups in German: eagle, salmon, frog, mouse.
- 中文:用德语将下列动物分类:鹰、鲑鱼、青蛙、老鼠。
- English: Label the parts of a flower: petal, stem, roots, leaf.
- 中文:标注一朵花的部位:花瓣、茎、根、叶。
5. Music: Musical Instruments | 音乐:乐器
Musical instruments provide excellent practice for gender and compound nouns. Many instrument names are similar to English, but pay attention to spelling and article: 'die Gitarre' (guitar), 'das Klavier' (piano), 'die Geige' (violin), 'die Trompete' (trumpet), 'das Schlagzeug' (drums). The verb 'spielen' (to play) is used with the accusative case: 'Ich spiele Klavier.' (I play the piano).
乐器为练习名词的性和复合词提供了绝佳机会。许多乐器名称与英语相似,但要注意拼写和冠词:die Gitarre(吉他)、das Klavier(钢琴)、die Geige(小提琴)、die Trompete(小号)、das Schlagzeug(鼓)。动词 spielen(演奏)与第四格连用:'Ich spiele Klavier.'(我弹钢琴。)
You can also describe the type of music: 'klassische Musik' (classical), 'Popmusik' (pop), 'Rockmusik' (rock). Use adjectives to give opinions: 'laut' (loud), 'leise' (quiet), 'melodisch' (melodious). Try forming a sentence: 'Mein Lieblingsinstrument ist die Gitarre, weil sie melodisch klingt.'
你还可以描述音乐类型:klassische Musik(古典)、Popmusik(流行)、Rockmusik(摇滚)。使用形容词表达观点:laut(响亮的)、leise(轻柔的)、melodisch(旋律优美的)。试着造句:'Mein Lieblingsinstrument ist die Gitarre, weil sie melodisch klingt.'(我最喜欢的乐器是吉他,因为它声音优美。)
- English: Write three sentences about which instruments your family members play.
- 中文:写三个句子,介绍你的家人演奏什么乐器。
- English: Read this text and answer: 'Anna spielt Geige und ihr Bruder spielt Schlagzeug. Welches Instrument findet sie laut?'
- 中文:阅读短文并回答:“Anna spielt Geige und ihr Bruder spielt Schlagzeug. Welches Instrument findet sie laut?”
6. Physical Education: Sports and Body Parts | 体育:运动与身体部位
Sports vocabulary is highly relevant for describing hobbies and healthy lifestyles. Key verbs: 'laufen' (to run), 'schwimmen' (to swim), 'Fußball spielen' (to play football), 'turnen' (to do gymnastics). Body parts are often needed when talking about injuries: 'der Arm' (arm), 'das Bein' (leg), 'der Rücken' (back). The phrase 'Ich habe mir das Bein gebrochen' means I broke my leg.
运动词汇对于描述爱好和健康的生活方式非常实用。关键动词:laufen(跑步)、schwimmen(游泳)、Fußball spielen(踢足球)、turnen(做体操)。在谈论受伤时经常需要身体部位词汇:der Arm(手臂)、das Bein(腿)、der Rücken(背部)。短语 'Ich habe mir das Bein gebrochen' 意思是我摔断了腿。
CCEA exercises may ask you to read a short sports report or fill in the missing body parts. Remember the article changes in the plural: 'die Arme', 'die Beine'. Also, use time phrases to show duration: 'eine Stunde' (one hour), 'jeden Tag' (every day).
CCEA 的练习可能会要求你阅读一段简短的体育报道或填写缺失的身体部位。要记住复数形式的冠词会发生变化:die Arme、die Beine。此外,使用时间短语来表示时长:eine Stunde(一小时)、jeden Tag(每天)。
- English: Translate into German: 'I play basketball every Tuesday and I use my legs a lot.'
- 中文:翻译成德语:“我每周二打篮球,我用了很多腿的动作。”
- English: Describe an injury: 'He hurt his back while doing gymnastics.'
- 中文:描述一个伤情:“他在做体操时伤了背。”
7. Food and Nutrition: Healthy Eating | 食物与营养:健康饮食
Discussing food in German blends vocabulary from Home Economics and Biology. Essential words: 'das Obst' (fruit), 'das Gemüse' (vegetables), 'das Fleisch' (meat), 'der Fisch' (fish), 'gesund' (healthy), 'ungesund' (unhealthy). You can express preferences with 'gern': 'Ich esse gern Äpfel.' (I like eating apples). To say what you should eat, use 'man sollte': 'Man sollte viel Wasser trinken.'
用德语讨论食物融合了家政学和生物学中的词汇。基本词汇:das Obst(水果)、das Gemüse(蔬菜)、das Fleisch(肉类)、der Fisch(鱼)、gesund(健康的)、ungesund(不健康的)。你可以用 gern 表达喜好:'Ich esse gern Äpfel.'(我喜欢吃苹果)。要表达应该吃什么,用 man sollte:'Man sollte viel Wasser trinken.'(人们应该多喝水。)
A common task is designing a healthy menu for a day. Use the structure 'Zum Frühstück esse ich...' (For breakfast I eat...), 'Zum Mittagessen...' (For lunch...), 'Zum Abendessen...' (For dinner...). Be careful with quantities: 'ein Glas Milch' (a glass of milk), 'eine Scheibe Brot' (a slice of bread).
一个常见任务是为一天设计一份健康菜单。使用结构 'Zum Frühstück esse ich...'(早餐我吃……)、'Zum Mittagessen...'(午餐……)、'Zum Abendessen...'(晚餐……)。注意数量表达:ein Glas Milch(一杯牛奶)、eine Scheibe Brot(一片面包)。
| Meal / 餐次 | Suggestion in German | English |
|---|---|---|
| Frühstück | ein Müsli mit Joghurt | muesli with yoghurt |
| Mittagessen | Hähnchen mit Reis und Gemüse | chicken with rice and vegetables |
| Abendessen | eine Tomatensuppe und Salat | tomato soup and salad |
8. Art: Colours and Shapes | 艺术:颜色与形状
Art terminology is perfect for practising adjective endings. The basic colours are 'rot', 'blau', 'grün', 'gelb', 'schwarz', 'weiß', 'braun', 'grau', 'orange', 'lila'. When describing a painting, the adjective comes before the noun and takes an ending: 'ein roter Apfel' (a red apple), 'das blaue Haus' (the blue house). Shapes: 'der Kreis' (circle), 'das Quadrat' (square), 'das Dreieck' (triangle), 'das Rechteck' (rectangle).
艺术术语非常适合练习形容词词尾。基本颜色有 rot、blau、grün、gelb、schwarz、weiß、braun、grau、orange、lila。在描述一幅画时,形容词放在名词前并带有词尾变化:ein roter Apfel(一个红苹果)、das blaue Haus(蓝色的房子)。形状:der Kreis(圆形)、das Quadrat(正方形)、das Dreieck(三角形)、das Rechteck(长方形)。
You can also express your opinion about a piece of art using 'gefallen': 'Das Bild gefällt mir, weil die Farben schön sind.' (I like the picture because the colours are beautiful). Compound colours like 'hellblau' (light blue) and 'dunkelgrün' (dark green) are formed by combining 'hell' or 'dunkel' with the base colour.
你还可以用 gefallen 表达对艺术品的看法:'Das Bild gefällt mir, weil die Farben schön sind.'(我喜欢这幅画,因为颜色很美)。复合颜色如 hellblau(浅蓝)和 dunkelgrün(深绿)是由 hell 或 dunkel 加上基本颜色构成的。
- English: Describe this flag: 'eine schwarz-rot-goldene Flagge' - what country is it?
- 中文:描述这面旗帜:'eine schwarz-rot-goldene Flagge'——这是哪个国家的?
- English: Draw and label a picture containing a brown square, a yellow circle, and a white triangle.
- 中文:画一幅包含一个棕色正方形、一个黄色圆形和一个白色三角形的图画,并标注。
9. Time and Schedules: Days, Months, and Clock Times | 时间与日程:星期、月份与钟点
Timetables and schedules are a practical cross-curricular theme linking German to everyday organisation. The days of the week are Montag, Dienstag, Mittwoch, Donnerstag, Freitag, Samstag (or Sonnabend), Sonntag. Months: Januar, Februar, März, April, Mai, Juni, Juli, August, September, Oktober, November, Dezember. Always write days and months with capital letters.
时间表与日程是一个实用的跨学科主题,将德语与日常组织联系起来。星期几是 Montag、Dienstag、Mittwoch、Donnerstag、Freitag、Samstag(或 Sonnabend)、Sonntag。月份:Januar、Februar、März、April、Mai、Juni、Juli、August、September、Oktober、November、Dezember。书写星期和月份时始终大写。
Telling the time uses the 24-hour clock in official contexts, but the 12-hour clock in conversation. For example, 14:30 is 'halb drei' (half past two / two thirty). Useful connectors: 'von...bis' (from...to), 'um' (at). 'Die Schule beginnt um acht Uhr und endet um halb vier.' (School starts at eight and ends at half past three).
报时在正式场合使用 24 小时制,但在会话中用 12 小时制。例如,14:30 是 'halb drei'(两点半)。实用连接词:von...bis(从……到)、um(在……点)。'Die Schule beginnt um acht Uhr und endet um halb vier.'(学校八点开始,三点半结束。)
- English: Read the timetable: Mathe um 9:15, Deutsch um 10:15, Pause um 11:00. How long is the gap between Mathe and Pause?
- 中文:阅读课程表:数学在 9:15,德语在 10:15,休息在 11:00。数学和休息之间相隔多长时间?
- English: Write your ideal school day schedule using 'Um... habe ich...'
- 中文:用 'Um... habe ich...' 写出你理想的学校日程。
10. School Subjects: Timetable and Opinions | 学校科目:课程表与观点
Linking German with the school curriculum helps you reuse vocabulary from other subjects. School subjects: Mathematik (Maths), Englisch, Deutsch, Biologie, Chemie, Physik, Geschichte (History), Erdkunde (Geography), Sport, Kunst (Art), Musik. Express likes and dislikes with 'Lieblingsfach' (favourite subject): 'Mein Lieblingsfach ist Biologie, weil der Lehrer nett ist.'
将德语与学校课程联系起来有助于你复用其他科目的词汇。学校科目:Mathematik(数学)、Englisch、Deutsch、Biologie、Chemie、Physik、Geschichte(历史)、Erdkunde(地理)、Sport、Kunst(艺术)、Musik。用 Lieblingsfach(最喜欢的科目)表达好恶:'Mein Lieblingsfach ist Biologie, weil der Lehrer nett ist.'(我最喜欢的科目是生物,因为老师人很好。)
A typical CCEA question might present a timetable in German and ask you to compare two students' preferences. Use 'aber' (but) and 'denn' (because) to give reasons. Remember to place the verb second in main clauses. Example: 'Ich mag Erdkunde, aber ich finde Chemie schwierig.' (I like Geography, but I find Chemistry difficult).
一道典型的 CCEA 题目可能会用德语呈现一份课程表,并要求你比较两个学生的偏好。使用 aber(但是)和 denn(因为)来给出理由。记住在主句中动词置于第二位。示例:'Ich mag Erdkunde, aber ich finde Chemie schwierig.'(我喜欢地理,但我觉得化学很难。)
- English: Create a dialogue between two friends discussing their timetables. Include at least four subjects and two opinions.
- 中文:编写两个朋友讨论他们课程表的对话。至少包含四个科目和两个观点。
- English: Translate: 'On Mondays I have three lessons: Maths, English, and Music. Music is my favourite subject because it is creative.'
- 中文:翻译:“星期一我有三节课:数学、英语和音乐。音乐是我最喜欢的科目,因为它富有创造性。”
