Note: 要…了 is used to indicate an event is upcoming. The adverb 就 is used to emphasize that the preceding time phrase is sooner than expected. The pattern is: Subject + Time Phrase + 就 + 要 + Verb + 了 我 今年 就 要 上大四 了。 (lit. “I this year so soon will attend senior year in college.”) 考研is an abbreviation of 考研究生, which means “taking an entrance exam for graduate school.” 如果…,…就… is a common way to express a condition. Note that 就, an unmovable adverb, occurs only after the subject. The pattern is: 如果 + Condition Clause, Subject + 就 + Result Clause 如果 考上研究生院, 我 就 去读研。 (lit. “If I pass (the exam for) graduate school, I then go to study for a master’s degree.) 读研is an abbreviation of 读研究生,which means “studying for a master’s degree in a graduate school.” 还没means “not …yet.” |
