It''s "gerund". Great punctuation too, by the way. I'm also an ESL teacher. Even though we don't remember the grammar we learned in class we can still use it pretty well. Considering Chinese doesn't have as strict grammar as English and as a native speaker he would know the grammar intuitively your theory doesn't make sense. However, if he wrote the characters more natively, which generally means more sloppily, the teacher probably wouldn't accept the answers. They are very picky about the form. There are also several different spoken languages in China. If it was a speaking or listening quiz he might not do as well. There are two national official languages so I am sure they are only being taught one. The characters are the same however.

We teach Mexican Spanish. It is a different dialect. My friends from Europe learn Spain Spanish, which is really different.

OH YEAH,CHINESE YEAH

Game = Won

what you guys ate saying about school classes is nothing how we do it at my Japanese class. for the first year we learn proper Japanese but the second year and up, our teacher teaches us slang and plain forms which is more common there because he lived half his life there.

damn were u bad at school there to that's the explanation

"YOU DOCTOR YET? COME BACK WHEN YOU DOCTOR!"

I guess what happens in China, stays in China!! lol hahahaha

But you would've learned Chinese as a language, not as a class.
