Part 1
Examiner
Do you look out the window at the scenery when travelling by bus or car?
Candidate
Yes, almost every time. Looking out of the window helps me slow down and keeps me away from my phone and I just focus. The scenery gradually changes, I feel very relaxed.
Examiner
Do you take photos of the scenery outside the car window?
Candidate
Sometimes I do, especially if the light is nice or the view feels very special or beautiful. But most of the time I don't take too many photos because I just prefer keeping the memory in my head.
Examiner
Do you prefer the mountains or the sea?
Candidate
Oh I actually prefer the sea because it makes me feel small and feel close to nature. I love surfing and walk slowly along the beach which helps me relax and lifts my mood. For example, I love go to the coast at sunset.
Do you look out the window at the scenery when travelling by bus or car?
Score: 86.0Suggestion: 回答自然且相关,但可通过更清晰的主题句和更连贯的连接词使表达更紧凑并避免轻微的重复。例如把原因与结果用逻辑连接词衔接,并适当加入具体细节(如常看哪些景色、在什么情况下会更放松)。
Example: Yes, I almost always look out of the window when I travel by bus or car because it helps me relax and disconnect from my phone. For example, I enjoy watching changing cityscapes and green fields, and seeing those slow transitions helps me calm down and focus on my thoughts.
Do you take photos of the scenery outside the car window?
Score: 88.0Suggestion: 回答清晰且有对比,但可以用连接词增强逻辑并添加具体频率或实例来丰富内容(例如说明什么样的光线或特殊景色会促使拍照)。另外注意把两部分更紧密地衔接,避免重复。
Example: I sometimes take photos, mainly when the light is particularly beautiful or when the view is extraordinary, such as dramatic mountains at sunrise. However, most of the time I prefer not to take many pictures because I like to keep the memory in my head and enjoy the moment.
Do you prefer the mountains or the sea?
Score: 84.0Suggestion: 答案有个人感受和活动细节,但句子间衔接和语法有小问题(如重复 'feel'、动词形式错误),可改进语法和词汇多样性,且用连接词把原因和例子有机连接。加入更具体的场景细节(如为什么日落特别)会更好。
Example: I prefer the sea because it makes me feel small and connected to nature. I enjoy surfing and strolling along the beach, which relaxes me and lifts my mood. For example, I love visiting the coast at sunset when the sky turns orange and the atmosphere feels peaceful.
× Looking out of the window helps me slow down and keeps me away from my phone and I just focus.
✓ Looking out of the window helps me slow down, keep away from my phone, and just focus.
句子中原始并列结构的谓语动词形式不一致。主句为“helps”,其后多个并列动词应保持一致:在“helps”后通常用动词不定式或动名词形式;这里改为并列的动名词短语(keep, focus)并去掉多余的主语重复,使结构平行。建议练习并列谓语时保持动词形式一致。
× The scenery gradually changes, I feel very relaxed.
✓ The scenery gradually changes, and I feel very relaxed.
原句为两个独立分句用逗号连接,形成逗号拼接(comma splice),应使用连词连接或分为两句。这里用连词“and”保持现在时态一致并使句子流畅。建议注意复合句连接词的使用。
× Sometimes I do, especially if the light is nice or the view feels very special or beautiful.
✓ Sometimes I do, especially if the light is nice or the view is very special or beautiful.
动词“feels”在此虽可接受,但与“is”更常见且更简洁,保持描述性质的现在时态。建议在描述状态或特征时使用“be”动词以简洁表达。
× But most of the time I don't take too many photos because I just prefer keeping the memory in my head.
✓ But most of the time I don't take too many photos because I just prefer keeping the memories in my head.
语法上“prefer keeping”可接受,但“memory”在此指不止一个瞬间,使用复数“memories”更自然。问题属于可数名词和动名词搭配:保持动名词形式,但修正名词单复数。建议注意可数名词的单复数与上下文一致。
× Oh I actually prefer the sea because it makes me feel small and feel close to nature.
✓ Oh, I actually prefer the sea because it makes me feel small and close to nature.
重复使用动词“feel”在句子中显得冗余。为了流畅和简洁,将第二个“feel”去掉,保持现在时态描述。建议在表达一系列感觉时避免重复相同的动词。
× I love surfing and walk slowly along the beach which helps me relax and lifts my mood.
✓ I love surfing and walking slowly along the beach, which helps me relax and lifts my mood.
并列动词“love surfing and walk”形式不一致,应统一为动名词形式“surfing and walking”。同时在“beach”和“which”之间加逗号使定语从句更清晰。建议并列时保持动词形式一致,并注意非限定/限定定语从句的标点。
× For example, I love go to the coast at sunset.
✓ For example, I love to go to the coast at sunset.
动词短语“love go”缺少不定式“to”或应使用动名词“going”。正确用法是“love to go”或“love going”。这里改为“love to go”以匹配口语常用表达。建议记住某些动词后需接不定式或动名词的固定搭配。
