Masa itu ibarat pedang: jika kita tidak memotongnya, ia akan memotong kita. Mei Ling membuat jadual untuk cuti sekolah supaya masanya digunakan dengan baik.
like a sword = ibarat pedang
"Time is like a sword: if you do not cut it, it cuts you" means use time well. This unit covers telling weekend activities on a timeline, reading a holiday plan, writing a diary, normal and inverted sentences, and three verb types.
Example: Mei Ling makes a holiday timetable so her time is well used.
Watch out: valuing time means valuing life.
Membaca
Jadual cuti sekolah
Jadual cuti Mei Ling: Isnin – ulang kaji; Selasa – latihan renang; Rabu – membantu ibu di kedai; Khamis – lawatan ke muzium; Jumaat – membaca buku cerita.
Contoh: Aktiviti penting diletakkan lebih awal supaya tidak terlupa.
假期计划表 = jadual cuti
Mei Ling 的假期计划：星期一复习、星期二练游泳、星期三帮妈妈看店、星期四参观博物馆、星期五读故事书。重要的事排在前面，比较不会忘记。
例子：星期四：参观博物馆。
注意：读表格时，先看清楚日期和项目。
holiday timetable = jadual cuti
Mei Ling's plan: Monday revision; Tuesday swimming; Wednesday helping Mother at the shop; Thursday museum visit; Friday reading storybooks. Important tasks go early so they are not forgotten.
Example: Thursday: museum visit.
Watch out: read the days and activities carefully.

Bilakah Mei Ling melawat muzium?
从表格找答案 = cari dalam jadual
在计划表里找“博物馆”，看是哪一天。
例子：星期二是练游泳。
注意：答案一定要从表格找。学了这个，试着用它造两三个自己的句子，说给家人听。
reading the timetable = cari dalam jadual
Find "museum" in the timetable and see which day it is.
Example: Tuesday is swimming.
Watch out: take the answer from the timetable. Try making two or three sentences of your own with it and say them to your family.
Menulis
Catatan diari
Diari ditulis dengan tarikh, menggunakan "saya" dan menceritakan peristiwa mengikut urutan masa serta perasaan penulis.
Contoh: "Selasa, 3 Jun – Hari ini saya berlatih renang selama sejam. Mula-mula saya takut, tetapi akhirnya saya dapat berenang 10 meter. Saya sangat gembira!"
diary = diari
A diary entry has a date, uses "I", tells events in time order and includes the writer's feelings.
Example: "Tuesday, 3 June – Today I practised swimming for an hour. At first I was scared, but finally I swam 10 metres. I was so happy!"
Watch out: write your real feelings.
Tatabahasa
Susunan ayat dan jenis kata kerja
Ingat: susunan biasa (subjek + predikat) dan susunan songsang (predikat + subjek). Kata kerja transitif (ada objek), tak transitif (tiada objek) dan pasif (di-).
Contoh: Biasa: Atlet itu berlatih setiap hari. → Songsang: Berlatih setiap hari atlet itu.
复习 = ulang kaji
复习：正常句是主语在前；倒装句是谓语在前。及物动词有宾语（menulis surat）；不及物动词没有宾语（berlari）；被动动词用 di-（ditulis）。
例子：正常：那位运动员每天训练。→ 倒装：每天训练的是那位运动员。
注意：读传记时可以把动词分类列出来。
review = ulang kaji
Review: normal order puts the subject first; inverted order puts the predicate first. Transitive verbs take objects (menulis surat), intransitive ones do not (berlari), passive verbs use di- (ditulis).
Example: normal: The athlete trains every day. → inverted: Trains every day, the athlete.
Watch out: when reading a biography, you can list the verbs by type.
Pilih semua
Pilih semua kata kerja tak transitif.
找不及物动词 = cari tak transitif
berlari（跑）、berenang（游泳）、menang（赢）后面不需要宾语；menulis 需要宾语，dibaca 是被动。这题有几个答案。
例子：tidur、ketawa 也是不及物。
注意：me- 开头的不一定都是及物，要看有没有宾语。平时读马来文报纸或故事书时，留意有没有用到这一点。
finding intransitive verbs = cari tak transitif
Berlari (run), berenang (swim) and menang (win) need no object; menulis needs one and dibaca is passive. There are several answers.
Example: tidur and ketawa are also intransitive.
Watch out: not every me- verb is transitive; check for an object.
Semak kefahaman
Yang manakah ayat dalam susunan songsang?
倒装句 = susunan songsang
马来语句子一般是主语在前、谓语在后（Adik itu rajin）。倒装句把谓语放到主语前面（Rajin sungguh adik itu），用来强调。看看哪一句是“rajin”先出现，主语 adik itu 放在后面。
例子：“Cantik sungguh pemandangan itu!” 也是倒装句。
注意：主语在前的是正常语序，不是倒装。用自己的话向同学解释一次，会记得更牢。
inverted order = susunan songsang
A Malay sentence usually puts the subject first and the predicate after (Adik itu rajin). Inverted order moves the predicate before the subject for emphasis (Rajin sungguh adik itu). Find the sentence where rajin comes first and adik itu comes after.
Example: "Cantik sungguh pemandangan itu!" is also inverted.
Watch out: subject-first sentences are normal order, not inverted.
Ringkasan
Syabas!
Ibarat pedang
