Conversation

Part 1

Examiner

Are you good at memorising things?

Candidate

Yes, and I think my memory works really great for me. For example, before the examination, I can memorize and learn a lot of points, or I can recall the things that I saw the last time, and I think it's because I'm still young.

Examiner

Have you ever forgotten something important?

Candidate

Yes, of course, and it's a bit awkward to tell. About a year ago I started to teach math classes online as my sidekick, and initially I often forgot the time that I supposed to be in the class and my students called me when I was hanging out with my friends in a mall.

Examiner

What do you need to remember in your daily life?

Candidate

Well to be fair, there aren't anything that are mandatory to remember in my life, but when it comes to socializing, it's really important to remember the person's name and face and also some fights that I had with my boyfriend so next time I can do my best to avoid them.

Examiner

How do you remember important things?

Candidate

Well, if this thing is really important, I will put them on my digital calendar on my phone, so it's really hard to miss. Ever since I missed a couple of my classes, I started this habit and it's been really practical and helpful for me to remember some important things.

Part 1

Are you good at memorising things?

Score: 78.0

Suggestion: 回答较自然但有冗余与语法小问题。建议:1) 开头用一两句直接的主题句(肯定或否定),避免重复;2) 用更具体的例子(如记住公式、日期或词汇),并用连接词(for example, because, therefore)使逻辑更清晰;3) 注意时态与搭配(例如 say “my memory works well” 而不是 “really great for me”)。

Example: Yes, I think I have a good memory. For example, before exams I can quickly memorise key formulas and important dates, so I usually perform well. Because I revise regularly, I can also recall things I saw recently.

Have you ever forgotten something important?

Score: 72.0

Suggestion: 内容具体且有故事性,但表达不够简洁且有用词和语法问题。建议:1) 开头直接说明发生过;2) 精简细节并用连接词(for instance, so)说明结果;3) 修正词汇(e.g. say “as a part-time tutor” not “sidekick”,and “supposed to be in class” → “was supposed to be in class”)。

Example: Yes, I once forgot an important lesson. For instance, when I started working as a part-time online maths tutor, I missed the start time of several classes, so students had to call me while I was out with friends. After that I changed my routine.

What do you need to remember in your daily life?

Score: 66.0

Suggestion: 回答内容有趣但结构与用词不够准确且包含冗长或不恰当的信息。建议:1) 先给出明确的主题句(例如“Mostly names and appointments”);2) 使用更礼貌或中性的表达(避免过多提到私人争执),将私人细节简化为“lessons from past disagreements”;3) 注意语法(there aren't → there isn't/there aren't any)。

Example: In daily life I mostly need to remember names and appointments. For social situations, it's important to recall people's names and past issues so I can avoid repeating mistakes. For example, remembering a friend’s birthday helps me stay close to them.

How do you remember important things?

Score: 82.0

Suggestion: 回答清晰且具体,说明了方法与原因,但可更简洁并加入连接词增强连贯性。建议:1) 开头用一句简洁的主题句;2) 用一两个支持细节说明工具和效果(e.g. alarms, reminders);3) 避免重复(“really”多次使用)。

Example: I usually use my phone’s digital calendar and set alarms for important events. Since I once missed classes, I now add reminders and notifications, which makes it unlikely that I forget important appointments.

Grammar

Adjective vs adverb / word choice (treated as Incorrect use of adjectives or adverbs)

× Yes, and I think my memory works really great for me.

Yes, and I think my memory works really well for me.

此处需要使用副词修饰动词“works”。“great”是形容词,用来修饰名词,句中应使用副词“well”。建议把“great”改为“well”。(在此处也可用“very well”来加强语气)

Verb in the base form / infinitive (treated as Verb + -ing form)

× For example, before the examination, I can memorize and learn a lot of points, or I can recall the things that I saw the last time, and I think it's because I'm still young.

For example, before the examination, I can memorize and learn a lot of points, or I can recall the things that I saw last time, and I think it's because I'm still young.

“the last time” 在此处冗余且导致搭配不自然,英语中常用“last time”或“the last time I saw them”,去掉定冠词更自然。注意保持时间表达简洁。

Incorrect use of nouns / word choice (treated as Sentence structure errors)

× About a year ago I started to teach math classes online as my sidekick, and initially I often forgot the time that I supposed to be in the class and my students called me when I was hanging out with my friends in a mall.

About a year ago I started to teach math classes online as a side job, and initially I often forgot the time when I was supposed to be in class and my students called me while I was hanging out with my friends at a mall.

1) “sidekick” 意为“助手/搭档”,与上下文不符,应为“side job”(兼职)。2) 时态和从句连接需要用“when I was supposed to be in class”而不是“the time that I supposed to be in the class”。3) “called me when I was hanging out with my friends in a mall” 更自然的表达是“called me while I was hanging out with my friends at a mall”。建议使用固定搭配“supposed to be in class”和介词“at a mall”。

There be issue / Subject-verb agreement (treated as Incorrect use of quantifiers / There be issue)

× Well to be fair, there aren't anything that are mandatory to remember in my life, but when it comes to socializing, it's really important to remember the person's name and face and also some fights that I had with my boyfriend so next time I can do my best to avoid them.

Well, to be fair, there isn't anything that is mandatory to remember in my life, but when it comes to socializing, it's really important to remember a person's name and face and also some arguments I had with my boyfriend so next time I can do my best to avoid them.

1) “anything” 为不可数/代词,应与单数动词连用,因此用“isn't”而不是“aren't”。2) “that are mandatory”中“that”指代“anything”,应使用单数形式“is mandatory”。3) “the person's name” 改为非特指的“a person's name”。4) “some fights” 在语境中可用“arguments”更自然。建议注意代词与动词的一致性以及名词的可数性。

Pronoun reference / Number agreement (treated as Incorrect use of pronouns)

× Well, if this thing is really important, I will put them on my digital calendar on my phone, so it's really hard to miss.

Well, if something is really important, I will put it on my digital calendar on my phone, so it's really hard to miss.

“this thing”与复数代词“them”不一致;如果指单一事项应用“It”;若泛指多项可用“them”并改前文为复数。建议保持指代一致:单数用“it”,复数用“them”。

Tense consistency (treated as Past tense issue)

× Ever since I missed a couple of my classes, I started this habit and it's been really practical and helpful for me to remember some important things.

Ever since I missed a couple of my classes, I started this habit and it has been really practical and helpful for me to remember important things.

句子中“it's been”可写为更正式的“it has been”。另外“some important things” 可简化为“important things”。时态上保持“Ever since”后常接现在完成时或现在完成进行时,但这里“started this habit”是过去发生的动作,随后用“has been”描述持续效果是可以的。建议用完整形式“it has been”以更符合书面表达。
