Part 1

Examiner

Do you like science?

Candidate

Yeah, I like science. Actually, I want you to study more in science. So I decided to go, uh, graduate to school, especially major in structural biology. Yeah.

Examiner

When did you start to learn about science?

Candidate

At first I knew the science in primary school, but there I just learned the basic science. But I took the richer in serious science, so I wanted to study more in biochemistry.

Examiner

Part 1

Do you like science?

Score: 48.0

Suggestion: Be direct and coherent: start with a clear topic sentence, correct pronoun errors, avoid hesitation, and limit to 2–4 sentences. Use linking words to explain reasons and plans. Replace unclear phrases like “I want you to study more” with “I want to study more” and remove filler sounds.

Example: Yes, I enjoy science. I plan to pursue graduate studies in structural biology because I am fascinated by how molecular structures determine biological function.

When did you start to learn about science?

Score: 50.0

Suggestion: Give a clear time reference, use linking words (e.g., "however", "later"), and be more specific about what changed your interest. Avoid vague phrases like “richer in serious science.” Keep answers concise and grammatical.

Example: I first learned basic science at primary school. However, my interest deepened in high school when I took advanced biology and chemistry, which led me to study biochemistry at university.

Which science subject is interesting to you?

Score: 62.0

Suggestion: Begin with a direct topic sentence, then add specific supporting details using linking words such as "for example" or "because." Combine short fragments into full sentences and avoid repetition.

Example: Biochemistry interests me most, particularly protein structure and function. For example, I am currently working in a lab on protein purification, which helps me see how structure affects activity.

What kinds of interesting things have you done with science?

Score: 44.0

Suggestion: Answer with concrete examples of activities (e.g., lab work, projects, experiments), use precise vocabulary, and remove hesitations. Use linking words like "for instance" and explain outcomes or what you learned.

Example: For instance, I have worked on a protein purification project in the lab, which gave me a broader understanding of how molecular mechanisms control bodily functions.

Do you like watching science TV programs?

Score: 46.0

Suggestion: Start with a clear yes/no and then briefly explain why, using correct grammar. Name programs clearly and state what you gain from them (knowledge, inspiration). Avoid vague phrases like “help me interesting thing.”

Example: Yes, I enjoy watching science programs such as 'Push It to Science' because they broaden my perspective and make complex ideas more interesting and accessible.

Do Chinese people often visit science museums?

Score: 38.0

Suggestion: If unsure, say so briefly then offer a reasonable, concise opinion. Use accurate phrases (e.g., "I'm not sure, but I think...") and give specific reasons or examples. Avoid repetition and awkward constructions.

Example: I'm not certain, but I think many Chinese people do visit science museums, especially families and students, because these museums offer interactive exhibits that promote scientific learning.

Grammar

Sentence structure errors

× Actually, I want you to study more in science.

Actually, I want to study more science.

The original sentence incorrectly addresses the listener ('you') instead of expressing the student's own intent. This is a sentence structure/meaning error. Use 'I want to study more science' to convey the student's intention; omit 'in' after 'study' when followed by a field ('study science').

Verb in the present participle form

× So I decided to go, uh, graduate to school, especially major in structural biology.

So I decided to go to graduate school and major in structural biology.

The phrase 'graduate to school' is incorrect. Use 'go to graduate school' and connect ideas with 'and'. 'Major in' should follow directly after 'major'. This corrects verb and preposition usage and improves sentence flow.

Past tense issue

× At first I knew the science in primary school, but there I just learned the basic science.

At first I learned science in primary school, but there I only learned basic science.

'Knew' is past tense of 'know' but 'learned' is appropriate for acquiring knowledge. 'The science' is unnecessary; use 'science'. 'Just' should be 'only' for clarity. This fixes verb choice and article usage.

Sentence structure errors

× But I took the richer in serious science, so I wanted to study more in biochemistry.

Then I became more interested in advanced science, so I wanted to study biochemistry.

'Took the richer in serious science' is ungrammatical. Replace with 'became more interested in advanced science' to convey growth of interest. Use 'study biochemistry' rather than 'study more in biochemistry'.

Incorrect use of adjectives or adverbs

× Which science subject is interesting to you?

Which science subject is most interesting to you?

The question wording needs 'most interesting' or 'interesting' within context. Adding 'most' clarifies degree. This corrects adjective usage for a comparative question.

Subject-verb agreement errors

× The most interesting subject is biochemistry, especially protein structure.

The most interesting subject to me is biochemistry, especially protein structure.

Add 'to me' for clarity of viewpoint. Original is mostly acceptable, but adding 'to me' improves naturalness. No major verb agreement error, but this aligns with spoken intent.

Sentence structure errors

× So to understand the protein structure and function.

I want to understand protein structure and function.

Original is a sentence fragment lacking a main verb and subject. Turn into a full sentence with subject 'I want' and remove 'the' before 'protein' for general meaning.

Verb in the present participle form

× Now I experience the laboratory life working in protein purification.

Now I am experiencing laboratory life by working in protein purification.

Use present continuous 'am experiencing' for ongoing action. 'The laboratory life' is awkward; use 'laboratory life' and express manner with 'by working in...' This fixes tense and participle usage.

Incorrect use of quantifiers

× I think the study of science help me get get wide perspective in our body and Organism.

I think the study of science helps me gain a wider perspective on the human body and organisms.

Subject-verb agreement: 'study... helps' (singular). 'Help me get get' has repetition and awkward verbs; use 'helps me gain'. Use comparative 'wider' and correct prepositions: 'perspective on' and lowercase 'organisms'. This addresses quantifier/adjective and verb agreement issues.

Incorrect use of pronouns

× So yes we could easily understand how the functions.

So yes, we can more easily understand how functions work.

'How the functions' is incomplete; include 'work' to complete meaning. 'Could' implies conditional; use 'can' for general ability. Add comma after 'yes' and reposition 'more' for natural adverb placement.

Article errors

× Yeah, I like watching science program on TV for example, Push it to science, help me get the wide perspective in our life and help me interesting thing.

Yeah, I like watching science programs on TV. For example, 'Push It to Science' helps me gain a broader perspective on life and shows me interesting things.

Use plural 'programs' for general preference. Split into two sentences for clarity. Proper nouns should be capitalized and quoted. Use 'helps' for third-person singular. Replace 'get the wide perspective in our life' with 'gain a broader perspective on life' and 'help me interesting thing' with 'shows me interesting things'. This fixes article, verb form, and noun issues.

Incorrect use of prepositions

× Do Chinese people often visit science museums?

Do Chinese people often visit science museums?

This sentence is already correct; no change needed. It uses correct plural and preposition. Included here for completeness.

Sentence structure errors

× MMM, Actually I don't know well, but I think Chinese like a serious science.

Actually, I'm not sure, but I think Chinese people are interested in serious science.

'I don't know well' is unnatural; use 'I'm not sure'. 'Chinese like a serious science' is ungrammatical: specify 'Chinese people are interested in serious science'. This fixes sentence structure and noun usage.

Verb in the present participle form

× So yeah, they would like to visit the Museum of so maybe they enjoy, they will enjoy the culture of science and develop the science.

So yes, they would like to visit museums; they might enjoy the culture of science and help develop it.

Original is repetitive and unfinished ('Museum of so maybe'). Use plural 'museums' and replace awkward structure with 'they might enjoy' and 'help develop it'. This corrects tense/modal usage and sentence structure.
