Since it is possible for one Chinese character or word has various interpretations and hard to know the exact meaning when they are alone, you can see may Chinese language exercises demand the learners to fill certain words into the proper blanks according to the meanings of the complete sentences. For example, the character 该has different meanings when it is collocated with various characters. however, when it put into the sentence你的表是不是该换电池了, it carries the meaning of should.
When you attend to Chinese school to study in China, you may learn the character 结 and you also know the meaning of it. However, we can say 结果and结婚and so on. Even though the character, the meanings of the three words are definitely different. We should say秋天是结果的季节while 下个月我姐姐就要结婚了. Therefore, when doing the practice of filling the blanks, the students need to take the actual environment into consideration.
During the process of reading practice, you may also often see the words 有名and尤其, with the meaning of famous and especially respectively. The former one is easy to understand because it is an adjective to describe something is famous while the other is an adverb to show something is really prominent or obvious. You may often see both words are used in the same sentence like 我们家乡是有名的风景区,冬天可以滑雪,夏天可以游泳,一年四季都有很多旅游的人,特别是夏天,去避暑的人特别多.
真is also a simple character but can be understood in different senses when being collocated with different characters. It usually means something is real. Of course, it can be allocated with some adjectives to show the degree. For example, 这里的秋天真好,不冷也不热. If you go to Chinese school in Kunming to study Chinese, teachers would also teach you another character 要, which literally means want something. In some cases, it carries the meaning that something is going to happen like 快走吧,要迟到了.
