Do you like holidays? Why?
Thí sinh
Yes, I do. In China we have many important holidays such as Spring Festival and National Day, and I enjoy them because they give me time to relax and spend time with my family. Although people often say we should be diligent and work hard, I think it's also important to take a break and chat.

Which public holiday do you like best?
Thí sinh
My favorite holiday is the Spring Festival, especially when I was younger, because it was a time when family members from different cities would come home and we had a big reunion dinners and exchanged red developers. Nowadays it feels less meaningful and more commercial.

× I went to Jiangsu for A5 day trip during last Labor Day.
✓ I went to Jiangsu for a 5-day trip during last Labor Day.
句子中“A5 day trip”是不正确的用法,应为“a 5-day trip”来表示“为期五天的旅行”。这是数词与名词短语连用时的常见表达,形容词短语“5-day”需要用连字符连接并置于名词前。建议记住英语中表示持续时间的复合形容词形式(number + -day/-week 等)并用连字符。
× I took a local river cruise and enjoyed the scenic views along the river, which was a relaxing highlight of the holiday.
✓ I took a local river cruise and enjoyed the scenic views along the river, which were a relaxing highlight of the holiday.
从句中的先行词是复数名词“the scenic views”,关系代词引导的定语从句谓语动词应与先行词保持一致,因此用复数动词“were”。建议在处理关系代词“which”时,先确定它指代的名词单复数,再选择动词形式。
× we had a big reunion dinners and exchanged red developers.
✓ we had a big reunion dinner and exchanged red envelopes.
这里有两个问题:’dinners’与前面的形容词搭配不当,通常说“a big reunion dinner”表示一次团圆饭;同时“red developers”是拼写错误,正确应为“red envelopes”(红包)。这属于名词单复数及词汇选择问题。建议注意不可数/可数名词用法并检查常见词汇拼写。
× My favorite holiday is the Spring Festival, especially when I was younger, because it was a time when family members from different cities would come home and we had a big reunion dinners and exchanged red developers.
✓ My favorite holiday is the Spring Festival, especially because when I was younger it was a time when family members from different cities would come home, we had a big reunion dinner, and exchanged red envelopes.
原句时态混乱与结构不清:主句用现在时“is”,后半句描述过去时应使用适当的过去时序列。调整为“especially because when I was younger it was a time when...”使时间逻辑更清晰,并修正名词问题(见上条)。建议在一个句子内保持时态一致并理清因果或时间状语的位置。
× When I was younger, I used to hang out with my friends on holidays.
✓ When I was younger, I used to hang out with my friends on holidays.
该句语法正确,与“used to”搭配描述过去习惯,故不需修改。此项仅作确认无误。
× But now that I have children, I usually spend holidays looking after them and taking them to the park or to play activities, so my free time is much more family.
✓ But now that I have children, I usually spend holidays looking after them and taking them to the park or to play activities, so my free time is much more family-oriented.
原句“much more family”不是标准表达,需用形容词性短语“family-oriented”来修饰“free time”。另外动词与主语一致无误,但词类使用错误需要纠正。建议学习固定搭配表达(如 family-oriented 表示“以家庭为重”)。
× I usually prefer a larger holiday because it helps me relax and recharge after a busy period.
✓ I usually prefer a longer holiday because it helps me relax and recharge after a busy period.
“larger holiday”不符合常用搭配,应使用“longer holiday”表示时间上更长的假期;“larger”通常指物理尺寸或数量而非持续时间。建议根据语境选择形容词(时间长用 long/longer)。
× I do sometimes through the busy holiday when I need to be productive.
✓ I do sometimes work through busy holidays when I need to be productive.
原句缺少动词“work”,且“through the busy holiday”搭配不自然,应为“work through busy holidays”表示在假期期间继续工作。句子结构需补充动词并调整冠词与复数形式。建议注意完整句子需要主语+谓语,常见短语如“work through [a/the] holiday(s)”。
× For instance, I've created my family for.
✓ For instance, I've created time for my family.
原句不完整且语义不明确,“created my family for”缺少宾语或后续信息。根据语境应为“created time for my family”表示“为家人腾出时间”。建议确保句子包含完整的宾语短语,并检查搭配动词(create time for)。
× However, as my children are growing up, I will join them on the 2nd shift and take care of them if they want some more adventurous activities.
✓ However, as my children are growing up, I will join them on the second shift and take care of them if they want to do more adventurous activities.
原句需将“2nd”写成单词形式“second”更书面,且“want some more adventurous activities”缺少动词,正确为“want to do more adventurous activities”。建议注意动词不定式的使用以及书写习惯(数字在正式写作中写成单词)。
