Examiner
Did you have a bike when you were a child?
Candidate
Yes, I do have a bike and interestingly it is a not a common bag that you uh see on the road. It's a one wheel bike.
Examiner
Do you think bikes are popular in your country?
Candidate
Yeah, of course. You know, in China there are many shared bikes in many cities. The shared bikes is very convenient for us that when you have to go to somewhere that is not so far away and not so nearby, you can use your phone to Skype.
Did you have a bike when you were a child?
Score: 55.0Suggestion: 回答过去经历时要使用过去时,例如用“I had”而不是“I do have”。注意修正明显的用词和语法错误:“bag”应为“bike”,“a not a common”应为“not a common”。可以直接说明这辆车是什么,再补充一个具体特点;“one-wheeled bike”比“One wheel bike”更自然。
Example: Yes, I had a bike when I was a child. It was a one-wheeled bike, so it looked quite unusual compared with the regular bikes most children rode.
Do you think bikes are popular in your country?
Score: 48.0Suggestion: 先直接回答“是的,很受欢迎”,再用共享单车作为具体例子。注意主谓一致:“shared bikes are”;“go somewhere”不需要加“to”。“不太远也不太近”表达重复且不自然,可改为“a short distance”;“use your phone to Skype”与骑共享单车的场景不符,可说明用手机扫码解锁。减少“You know”等口语填充语,并用“because”或“for example”连接原因和例子。
Example: Yes, bikes are very popular in China, especially shared bikes in big cities. They’re convenient for short journeys because people can unlock one with their phones and ride it to nearby places.
× Yes, I do have a bike
✓ Yes, I had a bike.
问题问的是你小时候是否有自行车,时间背景是过去,因此回答也应使用过去时。将“do have”改为“had”。
× it is a not a common bag
✓ it is not a common bag
“a”不能放在“not”之前形成“a not a”。否定句应使用“is not a + 名词”,所以应删除第一个“a”。
× The shared bikes is very convenient
✓ The shared bikes are very convenient.
主语“bikes”是复数,谓语动词也要用复数形式“are”,不能用单数形式“is”。
× The shared bikes is very convenient for us that when you have to go to somewhere that is not so far away and not so nearby
✓ Shared bikes are very convenient for us when we need to go somewhere that is not very far away.
“convenient for us”后面应直接用“when”引导时间或情境从句,不能接“that when”。此外,前后主语最好保持一致;这里用“we”代替“you”,让表达更连贯。
× go to somewhere
✓ go somewhere
“somewhere”本身可以直接表示目的地,前面通常不加介词“to”。应说“go somewhere”,而不是“go to somewhere”。
