Did you have a bike when you were a child?
Score: 58.0Suggestion: 先直接回答,再按时间顺序讲学骑车的经历。避免把多个想法连成一个长句;注意过去时和主谓一致,例如用“fell over”“eventually learned”和“I was really happy”。“I I”是重复,应删除。
Example: Yes, I did. I got my first bike when I was about three, and my grandpa taught me how to ride it. I fell over a few times at first, but I eventually learned. I was so happy when I could ride by myself.
Do you think bikes are popular in your country?
Score: 55.0Suggestion: 观点明确,但“back”应为“bikes”,“electric vehicle”在这里可说“electric bikes”。说明普通自行车和电动自行车的流行程度变化时,使用清楚的对比,并补充一个具体原因,例如通勤方便。注意说“in the 2000s”和“most people”。
Example: Yes, although ordinary bikes were more common in China in the 2000s, electric bikes are more popular nowadays. Many people choose them because they make commuting quicker and require less effort, especially over longer distances.
× and is really happy today
✓ and I am really happy today
这里的并列部分缺少主语。英语中不能像中文一样省略这个主语;应补上“I”,并使用与“I”搭配的“am”。
× in like 2000s
✓ in the 2000s
表示某个年代时,通常在年代前加定冠词“the”,因此应说“in the 2000s”。“like”是口语填充词,不影响核心语法;正式表达时可以省略。
× most of people
✓ most people
“most people”表示“大多数人”,名词前没有限定词时不加“of”。“most of”后通常要接限定词或代词,例如“most of the people”。
