Examiner
Who do you want to sing for?
Candidate

Examiner
Do you like listening to others singing?

Well, I like to listen to other people sing because I like voice feels more emotional and it makes songs more powerful. For example, I often go to small karaoke with friends and we will have a party there. So I enjoy it because it's relaxed and friendly.

Have you ever taken a singing class?
Candidate

Do you like singing? Why?
Score: 68.0Suggestion: 句子需要更完整和更自然,注意主谓一致与时态,用连接词使表达更连贯,并控制在最多五句内。可以在开头直接回答并简要说明原因,然后用一两个具体例子支持。尽量减少停顿词(like, uh)。
Example: Yes, I really enjoy singing because it helps me relax after a long day. For example, I often sing in the shower to lift my mood and relieve stress. It’s a simple hobby that makes me feel happier and more energized.
Have you ever learnt how to sing?
Score: 64.0Suggestion: 回答重复且有语法错误(learned/learnt, scene/singing, seeing/singing)。应直接回答并给出两三个原因,使用连接词(because, and, so)使逻辑清晰,同时避免重复相同内容。
Example: No, I have never taken formal singing lessons because I treat singing as a casual hobby rather than a serious pursuit. Also, I was often too busy with homework and other commitments to attend classes.
Who do you want to sing for?
Score: 70.0Suggestion: 表述较清晰但有冗余与语法问题(listening to me to sing, at that time)。可以一句主题句加一两句具体细节,使用连接词(because, but, now)并避免填充词。
Example: I would certainly like to sing for my parents because they enjoyed hearing me sing when I was a child. I was shy back then, but now that I’m older I want to express my gratitude and best wishes to them through a song.
Do you think singing can bring happiness to people?
Score: 60.0Suggestion: 回答含混且有词汇错误(university?应该是 'occasion',seeing->singing)。需直接回答并举明确例子(birthdays, weddings),使用因果连接词(because, so)并减少停顿。
Example: Yes, I believe singing can make people happy because it expresses emotions clearly. For example, singing at birthdays or weddings helps convey good wishes and creates a joyful atmosphere.
Do you like listening to others singing?
Score: 72.0Suggestion: 回答思路好,但有语法与用词问题(voice feels -> voices feel / the voice feels more emotional)。将观点与例子连贯衔接,用更恰当的词汇(karaoke nights, intimate atmosphere),避免不必要的重复。
Example: Yes, I enjoy listening to others sing because a soulful voice can make a song more moving. For example, I often go to small karaoke nights with friends where the atmosphere is relaxed and everyone supports each other.
Have you ever taken a singing class?
Score: 65.0Suggestion: 回答重复之前内容,且有拼写/用词错误(scene->singing)。应简洁回答并给出两点原因(lack of interest, lack of time),并可说明将来是否有计划。
Example: No, I haven’t taken a singing class because I see singing as a casual hobby rather than a career pursuit, and I’ve been too busy with schoolwork. I might consider lessons in the future if I have more free time.
× Well I really into singing, for example when I take a shower I usually sing a song to lift my mood and it can also helps me feel relaxed and uh, after my whole day working.
✓ Well, I'm really into singing. For example, when I take a shower I usually sing a song to lift my mood, and it can also help me feel relaxed after a whole day of work.
错误类型:动词后加 -ing 形式及动词形式(Grammar Problem Type 8)。 解释:1) 原句缺少系动词“am”,应为“I'm really into singing”。 2) “helps” 与主语“it”在意义上可用不带 -s 的原形“help” 因为这里是情态/结果结构,也可以写作“it also helps me...”,但更自然使用“help” 与前面动词并列时保持一致;选择“help” 更常见。3) “after my whole day working” 应改为“after a whole day of work” 或“after working all day”。 建议:在表达喜好时记得加系动词;保持并列结构中动词形式一致;用固定搭配“a whole day of work”或“after working all day”。
× Well, I've never learned how to sing because I'm not really interested in taking scene lessons, it's just one of my hobbies and for me seeing is just a way to lift my mood and help me unwind.
✓ Well, I've never learned how to sing because I'm not really interested in taking singing lessons. It's just one of my hobbies, and for me singing is just a way to lift my mood and help me unwind.
错误类型:过去式/过去分词使用问题(Grammar Problem Type 5)。 解释:1) “scene lessons” 是拼写/词汇错误,应为“singing lessons”。2) 将句子分为两句更清晰,逗号后需大写“I”。3) “seeing” 应为“singing”——拼写错误影响时态或词性。4) 句内时态(现在完成时+现在时)本身无误,但要用正确词汇。 建议:检查拼写(singing 而非 scene/seeing);注意标点使句子清晰。
× And I also didn't have time since I was busy with my homework.
✓ And I also didn't have time because I was busy with my homework.
错误类型:过去式问题(Grammar Problem Type 5)。 解释:“since” 表示自从某时起持续到现在,常与完成时连用;这里要表示过去原因,应使用“because” 更恰当。时态使用过去式“didn't have” 与“was busy” 是一致的。 建议:表示过去原因用 because;若要表示持续至今可用 since + 现在完成时。
× Well, definitely my parents because they love listening to me to sing a song when I was a kid, but I'm very shy at that time.
✓ Well, definitely my parents, because they loved listening to me sing when I was a kid, but I was very shy then.
错误类型:代词/指代和时态混用(Grammar Problem Type 12)。 解释:1) “they love listening to me to sing a song when I was a kid” 中时态混乱,应统一为过去时“they loved listening to me sing when I was a kid”。2) “listening to me to sing” 中多余“to”;正确结构为“listening to me sing” 或 “listening to me sing a song”。3) “I'm very shy at that time” 时态不对,应为过去时“I was very shy then”。 建议:保持时态一致;注意“listen to someone do” 结构,不加多余的“to”;用 then 表示过去时态的“那时”。
× Uh, however, now I grew up, I'd like to sing a song for them to, uh, express my good wish to them.
✓ Uh, however, now that I've grown up, I'd like to sing a song for them to express my good wishes.
错误类型:现在时/完成时问题(Grammar Problem Type 6)。 Explanation in Chinese: “now I grew up” 时态错误,应使用现在完成时或现在完成时的完成意义“now that I've grown up”。另外“good wish to them” 用法不自然,改为“express my good wishes” 更符合英语习惯。动词不定式“to express” 放在句尾与前半句连贯。 建议:使用 now that + 完成时表示“现在已经长大”;用复数短语“good wishes” 或更自然表达“my gratitude/appreciation”。
× Yeah, of course, when it comes to someone's birthday and special, uh, university, I think seeing is a good way to express people's good wish and their gratitude, uh, to someone.
✓ Yeah, of course. When it comes to someone's birthday or other special occasions, I think singing is a good way to express people's good wishes and their gratitude to someone.
错误类型:形容词/副词使用不当(Grammar Problem Type 13)。 解释:1) “and special, uh, university” 无意义且词序混乱,应改为“or other special occasions”。2) “seeing” 拼写错误,应该是“singing”。3) “good wish” 应为复数“good wishes”。 建议:使用固定搭配“special occasions”;注意单复数形式;检查拼写。
× Well, I like to listen to other people sing because I like voice feels more emotional and it makes songs more powerful.
✓ Well, I like to listen to other people sing because I like voices that feel more emotional, and they make songs more powerful.
错误类型:动词 -ing 及名词复数/从句结构问题(Grammar Problem Type 8)。 解释:1) “I like voice feels more emotional” 语法不正确,应表达为“voices that feel more emotional” 或 “the voice feels more emotional”。2) 主语和动词一致性需保持:voices ... make。 建议:把“voice” 改为复数“voices” 或用定语从句“that feel more emotional”;保证主谓一致。
× For example, I often go to small karaoke with friends and we will have a party there.
✓ For example, I often go to small karaoke places with friends and we have a party there.
错误类型:动词 -ing 及名词使用(Grammar Problem Type 8)。 解释:1) “small karaoke” 需加名词,如“karaoke places” 或“karaoke bars”。2) “we will have a party there” 改为一般现在时“we have a party there” 更符合习惯说法描述经常发生的活动。 建议:使用完整名词短语(karaoke place/bar)并用一般现在时描述习惯性行为。
× So I enjoy it because it's relaxed and friendly.
✓ So I enjoy it because it's relaxing and friendly.
错误类型:现在时/形容词使用问题(Grammar Problem Type 6)。 解释:“relaxed” 描述人或氛围时可用,但“it's relaxing” 更准确地表达“使人放松的”,因此用现在分词作形容词。 建议:用“relaxing” 表示使人放松的性质;若想说“氛围很轻松” 也可用“it's relaxed and friendly” 表示被动/状态。
× Well, I haven't actually, because I'm not interested in taking scene classes.
✓ Well, I haven't, actually, because I'm not interested in taking singing classes.
错误类型:过去式/拼写问题(Grammar Problem Type 5)。 解释:“scene” 拼写错误,应为“singing”。句子结构保留现在完成时“haven't” 与现在时“I'm not interested” 一致。 建议:检查拼写;保持时态一致。
× Singing is just one of my hobbies and for me it is a way to lift my mood and unwind.
✓ Singing is just one of my hobbies, and for me it is a way to lift my mood and unwind.
错误类型:现在时问题/标点(Grammar Problem Type 6)。 解释:句子本身语法正确,但需要在“hobbies”后加逗号并用连词“and”使结构更清晰。 建议:注意标点改善句子流畅性。
× And besides, I'm busy with my homework so I have no time to learn how to sing.
✓ And besides, I'm busy with my homework, so I have no time to learn how to sing.
错误类型:过去时/连词标点问题(Grammar Problem Type 5)。 解释:句子时态为现在时,主要问题是需要逗号连接两个分句使句子更清晰。时态本身(现在进行 I'm busy)是合理的。 建议:在连词前加逗号分隔主句和结果句以提高可读性。
