Part 1

Examiner

What is your favourite food?

Candidate

I'd say hot pot. Hot pot is a very welcoming and inclusive food. You can put vegetables, meat and tofu into the shared broth. I especially enjoy having hot pot with a lot of friends. We would usually chat and have beers together.

Examiner

What kind of food did you like when you were young?

Candidate

I enjoy having hot pot with my family. When I was young, having hot pot means I could taste different types of food and dipping sauce of different flavors. What matters more is I could spend high quality time with my family members where we would stay up late and chat for a long time.

Examiner

Do you eat different foods at different times of the year?

Candidate

Yes, absolutely. As a foodie, I always enjoy the seasonal products. For example, in the summer I have lots of watermelons and lychee because right now they're so fresh and sweet. When autumn comes, my family will have steamed crabs together to celebrate the harvest.

Examiner

Has your favourite food changed since you were a child?

Candidate

Yes, my taste for food have changed dramatically over the years. When I was a child, I enjoy sweet food like candies and marshmallows, which made me happy. As I get older now, I enjoy bolder flavors such as spicy dishes and the strong cup of coffee in the morning, which keeps me fresh.

Part 1

What is your favourite food?

Score: 88.0

Suggestion: 总体表现很好,内容自然、相关且有细节。但可在句式上更简洁并使用更多连接词使表达更连贯。避免重复“hot pot”太多次,可用代词或同义词替换,同时将最后一句与前文更紧密衔接以显得更流畅。建议把回答控制在最多5句内并使用一两个连接词如“so”或“because”。

Example: My favourite food is hot pot because it’s sociable and versatile. You can cook vegetables, meat and tofu together in a shared broth, which makes it great for groups. I especially like having hot pot with friends, as we chat and drink beer while enjoying different dipping sauces.

What kind of food did you like when you were young?

Score: 82.0

Suggestion: 回答内容有感情和细节,但时态和语法须改进(例如过去时和主谓一致)。句子较重复,可合并信息以更精简、自然地表达。加入连接词如“so”或“which”来增强逻辑。注意控制句子数量与长度,避免冗余词汇如“different”重复使用。

Example: When I was young, I especially liked having hot pot with my family because it let me try many foods and dipping sauces. More importantly, it was a chance to spend quality time together, staying up late and chatting about our day.

Do you eat different foods at different times of the year?

Score: 90.0

Suggestion: 回答清晰且有具体例子,使用了季节性细节,很好。可以改进的是把时态统一(例如描述常态时用一般现在时),以及用更多连接词(e.g., “for example,” “in contrast”)让句子衔接更自然。句子长度适中,保持简洁即可。

Example: Yes, I do. I like to follow seasonal produce: for example, in summer I eat a lot of watermelon and lychees because they’re fresh and sweet. In autumn, my family often eats steamed crabs to celebrate the harvest.

Has your favourite food changed since you were a child?

Score: 80.0

Suggestion: 答案有明确对比,但时态和主谓一致问题明显(使用过去时描述过去事件)。句子有些重复,部分表达不够地道(如“the strong cup of coffee”可简化)。建议用一到两句描述过去偏好,再用一到两句描述现在的变化,并用连接词如“however”或“now”强调对比。

Example: Yes, my tastes have changed a lot. As a child I loved sweet treats like candies and marshmallows because they made me happy. Now, however, I prefer bolder flavours—I enjoy spicy dishes and a strong cup of coffee in the morning to wake me up.

Grammar

Present tense issue

× I enjoy having hot pot with my family.

I enjoyed having hot pot with my family.

句子位于“当我还小的时候”(When I was young)的上下文中,描述过去的习惯或经历,应使用过去时。将动词“enjoy”改为过去式“enjoyed”。建议:在描述过去发生的事情时,统一使用过去时态。

There be issue

× When I was young, having hot pot means I could taste different types of food and dipping sauce of different flavors.

When I was young, having hot pot meant I could taste different types of food and dipping sauces of different flavors.

句子描述过去的情况,主句动词“means”应使用过去式“meant”。另外“dipping sauce”作可数名词复数时应为“dipping sauces”。建议:描述过去事项时把现在时改为过去时,并注意名词单复数一致。

Present tense issue

× What matters more is I could spend high quality time with my family members where we would stay up late and chat for a long time.

What mattered more was that I could spend high-quality time with my family members, when we would stay up late and chat for a long time.

句子在讲过去的经历,应将现在时“matters”改为过去时“mattered”,同时主从句时态一致并加上连词“that”。“high quality”作为复合形容词修饰名词需用连字符“high-quality”。建议:保持时态一致,使用恰当连词,并注意复合形容词格式。

Subject-verb agreement errors

× Yes, my taste for food have changed dramatically over the years.

Yes, my taste for food has changed dramatically over the years.

主语“my taste”是单数,谓语动词应使用第三人称单数“has”而不是“have”。建议:辨认主语的单复数形式,确保动词与主语在人称和数上保持一致。

Present tense issue

× When I was a child, I enjoy sweet food like candies and marshmallows, which made me happy.

When I was a child, I enjoyed sweet foods like candies and marshmallows, which made me happy.

句子描述过去的状态,应将现在时“enjoy”改为过去式“enjoyed”。另外“sweet food”在此处泛指多种甜食,改为复数“sweet foods”。建议:描述过去时统一使用过去式,并注意可数名词的复数形式。

Incorrect use of the definite article

× As I get older now, I enjoy bolder flavors such as spicy dishes and the strong cup of coffee in the morning, which keeps me fresh.

As I got older, I enjoyed bolder flavors such as spicy dishes and a strong cup of coffee in the morning, which kept me feeling refreshed.

上下文在比较过去与现在的变化,应把“get older now”改为过去式“got older”,并把现在时“enjoy”改为过去式“enjoyed”以及“keeps”改为过去式“kept”。“the strong cup of coffee”在此为泛指,应使用不定冠词“a strong cup of coffee”。此外“keeps me fresh”用法不太自然,改为“kept me feeling refreshed”。建议:保持时态一致,正确选择冠词并使用更自然的短语表达。
