Part 1

Examiner

What is your favourite food?

Candidate

My favorite food is dumplings, especially because they always remind me of cherished family gatherings. We always make dumplings together and taste them together, and I also like that they are definitely versatile and favourable. Sometimes we stuff them with seasonal vegetables.

Examiner

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

Candidate

When I was a child, I was really addicted to switches because I had a serious sweet tooth. My parents often rewarded me with chocolates or candies, and I used to save my pocket money to buy snacks after school. Nowadays, I try to limit sweets and prefer fruit as a healthier alternative.

Examiner

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

Candidate

I definitely eat different foods at different times of the year. In winter, I usually prefer hot pot or hearty, nutritious soups because they help me feel warm and comfortable after chilly day. In summer, I tend to choose light, refreshing salads or cold noodles, and especially light sweet seasonal corn.

Examiner

Has your favourite food changed since you were a child?

Candidate

When I was a child, I loved sweets, especially chocolate and gummy candies. But now I prefer fruits and vegetables because I learn about the importance of a balanced diet and how it affects my energy and well-being. For example, I often snacks on apples or nuts in the afternoon instead of chocolate.

Part 1

What is your favourite food?

Score: 80.0

Suggestion: 回答自然且有情感,但存在少许重复与用词不够地道的问题(如“favourable”“taste them together”不够自然)。建议精简句子,避免冗余,并使用更地道的搭配与多样词汇;例如用“bring back memories of family gatherings”“we fold and cook them together”“versatile and delicious”。同时保持不超过5句的结构:主题句+1–2个具体细节。

Example: My favourite food is dumplings because they bring back happy family memories. We fold and cook them together at festivals, and I love how versatile they are — sometimes we fill them with seasonal vegetables or minced pork.

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

Score: 65.0

Suggestion: 回答内容明确但有明显用词错误(“addicted to switches”应为“sweets”),影响理解。建议纠正词汇错误,保持句子简洁,并用连接词(e.g. 'however')对比过去与现在的习惯。可补充一两个具体例子(喜欢的零食名称或改变的原因)。

Example: When I was a child I loved sweets, especially chocolate and gummy candies, and I often saved my pocket money to buy them. However, I now limit sugary snacks and prefer fruits like apples or grapes because I want to stay healthy.

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

Score: 85.0

Suggestion: 结构清晰、细节具体,但有少量语法与表达问题(如“after chilly day”应为“after a chilly day”,“light sweet seasonal corn”可更自然为“sweet seasonal corn”)。建议用连接词使对比更流畅(e.g. 'in contrast'或'by contrast'),并稍微精简以符合长度要求。

Example: Yes, I eat different foods depending on the season. In winter I prefer hot pot or hearty soups because they keep me warm after a chilly day, while in summer I choose light, refreshing salads, cold noodles or sweet seasonal corn.

Has your favourite food changed since you were a child?

Score: 82.0

Suggestion: 回答直接且有对比细节,但存在语法和用词小问题(如“because I learn”应为“because I learned”或“because I’ve learned”;“I often snacks”应为“I often snack”)。建议修正时态与主谓一致,使用连接词(e.g. 'now'、'therefore')并保留具体例子。

Example: When I was a child I loved sweets such as chocolate and gummy candies, but now I prefer fruits and vegetables because I’ve learned about the importance of a balanced diet. For example, I often snack on apples or a handful of nuts in the afternoon instead of chocolate.

Grammar

13: Incorrect use of adjectives or adverbs

× I also like that they are definitely versatile and favourable.

I also like that they are definitely versatile and favorable.

“favourable” 与上下文搭配不太自然,正确的形容词是 “favorable”(美式拼写)或 “favourable”(英式拼写)。但更重要的是用词语感:在描述食物的通用性时常用 “versatile and flavorful” 或 “versatile and tasty”。建议根据表达选择更贴切的形容词,例如 “flavorful”(美味的)或 “tasty”(好吃的)。注意英美拼写差异。

1: Singular and plural issue

× we always make dumplings together and taste them together, and I also like that they are definitely versatile and favourable.

We always make dumplings together and taste them together, and I also like that they are definitely versatile and favorable.

句首应大写 “We”。虽然原句中 dumplings 是复数使用正确,但句子开头小写是书写错误而非语法类型表中的项。此处主要校正大小写以符合标准书写。建议注意句子开头首字母大写。

5: Past tense issue

× When I was a child, I was really addicted to switches because I had a serious sweet tooth.

When I was a child, I was really addicted to sweets because I had a serious sweet tooth.

原句中的 “switches” 与语境不符,应为 “sweets” 表示甜食。这个错误属于词汇选择,但会导致时态和句意混乱。保持过去时的叙述正确无误。建议注意拼写和词汇选择,复查同音或近形词。

6: Present tense issue

× Nowadays, I try to limit sweets and prefer fruit as a healthier alternative.

Nowadays, I try to limit sweets and prefer fruit as a healthier alternative.

句子本身时态正确,无需改动。这里重复提供以表明该句符合现在时用法,保持原句。提示:无错误。

20: Incorrect adverb placement

× In winter, I usually prefer hot pot or hearty, nutritious soups because they help me feel warm and comfortable after chilly day.

In winter, I usually prefer hot pot or hearty, nutritious soups because they help me feel warm and comfortable after a chilly day.

短语 “after chilly day” 缺少冠词 “a”,应为 “after a chilly day”。该错误属于冠词使用(也与第22项 Article errors 重叠),但按题目要求归类为副词/短语位置错误较不合适,仍在此处说明并修正。建议注意可数名词前的冠词使用。

8: Verb + -ing form

× For example, I often snacks on apples or nuts in the afternoon instead of chocolate.

For example, I often snack on apples or nuts in the afternoon instead of chocolate.

动词 “snacks” 与主语 “I” 不匹配,正确形式是动词原形 “snack” 用于一般现在时(I + 动词原形/不加-s)。这是主谓一致错误(可归为第27),但也涉及动词形式选择。建议记住第三人称单数才加 -s。
