Examiner

Do you like taking pictures of different views?

Candidate

Yes, I love taking pictures of different views, especially when I travel to a new place. The photos that I take can help me capture the scenery and keep lasting memories of those trips, and then I can look after when I came home to feel the happiness at that time.

Examiner

Do you prefer views in urban areas or rural areas?

Candidate

I prefer views in urban areas because I was born and raised in the city, so I'm more familiar with the urban views and also I like the hustling lives in city. For example, I love seeing people or I love myself staying in Cafe. It makes me feel like the life is meaningful.

Examiner

Do you prefer views in your own country or in other countries?

Candidate

I would say I prefer the landscapes in my own country. I haven't travelled abroad abroad, so I'm more familiar with the scenery here. And because China is so large, I still want to visit many other cities in my own country and the regions first. For example, I'd love to see mountains in Yunnan or the coastline in Fujian.

Do you like taking pictures of different views?

Score: 74.0

Suggestion: Make the answer more natural and concise. Start with a clear topic sentence, then give one or two specific supporting details using linking words. Avoid repetitions and grammatical errors (e.g., "look after" and tense mistakes).

Example: Yes, I love photographing different views, especially while traveling. For example, when I visit a new city I take photos of the skyline and local streets so I can remember the atmosphere later; looking at these pictures at home always brings back happy memories.

Do you prefer views in urban areas or rural areas?

Score: 68.0

Suggestion: Make your response grammatically correct and more specific. Use a clear topic sentence, then give one or two precise reasons with linking words. Replace vague phrases (e.g., "hustling lives") with natural expressions and correct word order.

Example: I prefer urban views because I grew up in the city and enjoy its lively atmosphere. For example, I like photographing busy streets and people in cafés, since these scenes make me feel energetic and connected to city life.

Do you prefer views in your own country or in other countries?

Score: 79.0

Suggestion: Keep the answer direct and avoid repetition. Use a topic sentence, a clear reason, and specific examples with linking words. Correct small errors (duplicate word, tense and article use) to sound more fluent.

Example: I prefer landscapes in my own country because I haven't traveled abroad and I know the scenery here better. For example, since China is so vast, I plan to visit mountain ranges in Yunnan and the coastline in Fujian to photograph their distinct landscapes.

Grammar

Verb in the past participle form

× The photos that I take can help me capture the scenery and keep lasting memories of those trips, and then I can look after when I came home to feel the happiness at that time.

The photos that I take help me capture the scenery and keep lasting memories of those trips, and then I can look at them when I come home to feel the happiness I had then.

Issues: unnecessary modal 'can' with two verbs and incorrect verb forms 'look after' and 'came'. 'Look after' means to care for; the intended phrase is 'look at (them)'. Tense should be present when describing a habitual ability: 'I can look at them when I come home' or simple present 'I look at them when I come home'. Also 'came' is past; use 'come' to match present-time reference, and 'at that time' is awkward; use 'I had then' or 'I felt then'. Suggestion: use 'help' without 'can' for clarity, use 'look at them', and use present tense 'come' and past reference 'I had then'.

Incorrect use of articles

× I prefer views in urban areas because I was born and raised in the city, so I'm more familiar with the urban views and also I like the hustling lives in city.

I prefer views in urban areas because I was born and raised in the city, so I'm more familiar with urban scenes and I also like the hustle and bustle of city life.

Issues: 'the urban views' is wordy; 'urban scenes' is more natural. 'the hustling lives in city' is ungrammatical: 'hustling' is adjective; correct idiom is 'the hustle and bustle of city life'. Also add 'the' before 'city' if referring to a particular city or use 'city life' generally. Suggestion: use established collocations 'hustle and bustle' and 'city life'.

Incorrect use of pronouns

× For example, I love seeing people or I love myself staying in Cafe.

For example, I love seeing people, and I also enjoy spending time in cafés.

Issues: 'I love myself staying in Cafe' is incorrect reflexive/pronoun use and unnatural phrasing. Use 'I enjoy' or 'I like' plus gerund 'spending time' and plural or accented 'cafés'. Also add conjunction 'and' to join clauses. Suggestion: use 'I enjoy spending time in cafés' or 'I like sitting in a café'.

Incorrect use of articles

× It makes me feel like the life is meaningful.

It makes me feel that life is meaningful.

Issue: unnecessary definite article 'the' before 'life' when speaking about life in general. Use 'life' without an article. Also 'feel like' followed by clause is informal; 'feel that' is clearer here. Suggestion: say 'It makes me feel that life is meaningful.'

Past tense issue

× I prefer views in urban areas because I was born and raised in the city, so I'm more familiar with the urban views and also I like the hustling lives in city.

I prefer views in urban areas because I was born and raised in the city, so I'm more familiar with urban scenes and I also like the hustle and bustle of city life.

Issue: 'was born and raised' is correct past tense, but 'I'm more familiar' mixes past and present appropriately. No change needed to tense here; repeated sentence corrected for other issues. Keep past tense for birth/raising and present for current preferences. Suggestion: maintain consistent tense usage as applied.

Repetition/Word choice error (not in list)

× I haven't travelled abroad abroad, so I'm more familiar with the scenery here.

I haven't travelled abroad, so I'm more familiar with the scenery here.

Issue: duplicated word 'abroad abroad' is a typographical or repetition error. Remove the duplicate. Suggestion: proofread to remove accidental repetitions.

Article errors

× And because China is so large, I still want to visit many other cities in my own country and the regions first.

And because China is so large, I still want to visit many other cities and regions in my own country first.

Issue: 'and the regions' is awkward; better to say 'many other cities and regions in my own country'. Also place 'first' at the end for clarity. Suggestion: use natural word order 'visit many other cities and regions in my own country first.'

Article errors

× For example, I'd love to see mountains in Yunnan or the coastline in Fujian.

For example, I'd love to see the mountains in Yunnan or the coastline in Fujian.

Issue: use of definite article 'the' before 'mountains' when referring to specific well-known regions is more natural: 'the mountains in Yunnan'. Keep 'the coastline' as provided. Suggestion: use definite article when referring to specific geographical features in a region.
