Review of Teahouse
By Li Daming
This year’s school play was a very good choice. Teahouse, by Lao She, is famous and interesting. We learnt a lot about people’s lives in China some one hundred years ago. The actors’ and actresses’ clothes and the teahouse furniture were right for the first half of the twentieth century. The actors and actresses all did a very good job. Li Nan, the student playing Wang Lifa, the owner of the teahouse, was the best. He brought Wang Lifa to life, from a young man to an old man.

2. 双宾语
当我们表达“给某人某物”时就出现了两个动作的承受者，一个是物，一个是人。
例如：我递给他一瓶苹果汁。
