Did you have any hobbies when you were a child?

Examiner
Do you have a hobby that you've had since childhood?
Candidate
To be honest, I don't keep a hobby for more than three years. I guess I was that kind of person who like to try things new and challenging. For example, I like to draw in my childhood, but nowadays I like to skateboarding.
Examiner
Do you have the same hobbies as your family members?
Candidate
Yes I do. We all like to tell jokes, to make people laugh. I guess it's the humorous gene that runs in my family. I really like this thing and enjoying time with my family.
Do you have any hobbies?
Score: 72.0Suggestion: 句子要更自然并直接回答。注意语法(例如冠词和名词单复数),减少填充词(如 "Umm"),并用连接词使句子更连贯。可以在开头简短给出主题句,然后用一到两句具体说明和例子。
Example: Yes, I have several hobbies. I enjoy quiet pastimes like reading and listening to music for relaxation, and I also take part in active sports such as skateboarding, which keeps me fit and energetic.
Did you have any hobbies when you were a child?
Score: 74.0Suggestion: 注意时态一致和动词形式(例如过去式)。避免重复相同短语,改用更自然的表达来描述细节,并用连接词解释原因或效果。
Example: Yes, I did. I learned to play the guitar and really enjoyed it as a child because my parents spent a lot of time teaching and encouraging me, which made me more confident to try new things.
Do you have a hobby that you've had since childhood?
Score: 68.0Suggestion: 回答要更直接并注意语法(主谓一致、时态、名词形式)。避免口语化片语过多,提供更具体的例子并用连接词显示转折或对比。
Example: Not really — I usually try new hobbies every few years. For instance, I enjoyed drawing when I was a child, but recently I've been into skateboarding because I like the challenge and freedom it offers.
Do you have the same hobbies as your family members?
Score: 70.0Suggestion: 注意语法和用词自然性(例如去掉不必要的不定式、时态一致)。可以提供具体场景说明如何一起分享幽默,并用连接词扩展原因或感受。
Example: Yes, we share a similar sense of humour and often tell jokes to make each other laugh. This lighthearted atmosphere brings us closer and makes family gatherings very enjoyable.
× I not only like quiet activities like reading and listening to music, I also like some active hobbies like playing sports, especially the skateboards.
✓ I not only like quiet activities like reading and listening to music, I also like some active hobbies like playing sports, especially skateboarding.
“the skateboards” 在这里不需要定冠词且 skateboard 用作不可数或动名词时应为 skateboarding。使用“the”会暗示特指某些滑板,但句意是指滑滑板这一活动。建议去掉“the”并用动名词形式或复数视具体含义。
× Umm, I think both of the activities give me energy.
✓ Umm, I think both of the activities give me energy.
句子原句其实在主谓一致上是正确的:both of the activities 与动词 give 一致。此处无需修改。解释(中文):’both of the activities’ 与复数动词搭配,原句正确。
× I learned to play guitar and enjoy it when I was a kid.
✓ I learned to play the guitar and enjoyed it when I was a kid.
句中涉及过去时间状语“when I was a kid”,两个动词应使用过去时。并且在表示乐器时通常使用定冠词“the guitar”。建议将 enjoy 改为过去式 enjoyed,并在 guitar 前加 the。
× My parents spent a lot of time with me and encourage me, encourage me to try everything I want.
✓ My parents spent a lot of time with me and encouraged me to try everything I wanted.
句中描述过去的行为,动词应使用过去式 encouraged;第二处的“encourage me”重复且时态不一致,此外“want”也应与过去时间一致改为 wanted。建议删除重复并统一使用过去式。
× I'm so appreciative for them.
✓ I'm so appreciative of them.
短语搭配错误,英语中常用 appreciative of 表示“感激……”。使用 for 不符合固定搭配。中文建议:将 for 改为 of。
× To be honest, I don't keep a hobby for more than three years.
✓ To be honest, I haven't kept a hobby for more than three years.
句中谈及从过去到现在的持续状态,应该用现在完成时 haven’t kept 表示“至今未持续超过三年”。原句使用一般现在时与时间状语不匹配。
× I guess I was that kind of person who like to try things new and challenging.
✓ I guess I was that kind of person who liked to try new and challenging things.
关系从句中先行词“person”为单数,谓语应为 liked(过去式)来匹配前半句 was;此外形容词顺序和名词位置需要调整为“try new and challenging things”。建议统一使用过去时并调整词序。
× For example, I like to draw in my childhood, but nowadays I like to skateboarding.
✓ For example, I liked to draw in my childhood, but nowadays I like skateboarding.
第一部分描述过去的爱好,应使用过去时 liked。第二部分现在的爱好用动名词 skateboarding 或动词短语 like to skateboard,两者不可混用。建议将前句改为过去式,后句改为动名词或不带 to 的名词形式。
× Yes I do. We all like to tell jokes, to make people laugh.
✓ Yes, I do. We all like telling jokes and making people laugh.
原句语法上可理解但更自然的表达是使用动名词短语 telling jokes 和 making people laugh 作为并列。并且在书写中 should include comma after Yes。建议使用动名词一致结构。
× I really like this thing and enjoying time with my family.
✓ I really like this and enjoy time with my family.
并列谓语时要保持动词形式一致,前面是 like(一般现在时),后面应使用 enjoy 而非现在分词 enjoying。建议将 enjoying 改为动词原形 enjoy。
