School, university and research
The classroom, the exam, the lecture hall and the paper.
What holds these lists together
Teachers are addressed by their title, not by their name alone: 王老师, family name first, and 老师 is polite enough that it is used for respected people far outside a school. The school years are counted with 年级, so a pupil in the third year is in 三年级, and the university entrance examination, 高考, shapes a whole vocabulary of its own. Going to school and studying are different verbs: 上学 is attending, 学习 is the studying itself. The lists run from the pencil case to the research project and the thesis.
The five lists
Spread across the levels
