Examiner
Who do you usually relax with?
Candidate
Uh, when I'm relaxing, I tend to just stay by myself. Umm, to be honest, that is the time which gives me more, umm, space to think and to reflect on what I have done. And yeah, that's what I really love to do when I'm trying to relax, just staying by myself.
Examiner
Do you think listening to music is relaxing?
Candidate
Well, usually I don't find music particularly relaxing for me because when I'm when I'm trying to relax, I prefer to not have any background noises. So I will usually turn off all my music if I really want to relax and get rid of things from my mind. Yeah.
Examiner

Where do you go to relax recently?
Score: 72.0Suggestion: 内容直接但语句不够简洁,存在犹豫词(uh, umm)和重复(I, I; your comfortable bed)影响流利度与自然度。建议: 1) 开头用一句清晰的主题句回应问题; 2) 删去多余填充词,保持句子在3-4句内; 3) 用具体细节(如房间特点或喜欢的放松时间)丰富回答并用连词衔接。
Example: Lately I usually relax at my apartment. I find my bedroom especially comforting because it’s quiet and my bed is very cozy. In the evenings I like to dim the lights and read for 20–30 minutes, which helps me unwind after a busy day.
Who do you usually relax with?
Score: 78.0Suggestion: 回答明确但重复较多,语气犹豫影响自然度。建议: 1) 使用一到两句直接陈述主旨; 2) 用1句具体说明独处时会做什么(例:反思、阅读、冥想)并用连接词表明因果; 3) 避免填充词,保持自然流畅。
Example: I usually relax alone. I prefer solitude because it gives me time to think and reflect on my day, so I often spend that time reading or journaling to clear my mind.
Do you think listening to music is relaxing?
Score: 74.0Suggestion: 内容清楚但有重复(when I'm when I'm)且结尾略显口语化。建议: 1) 用一到两句直接回答问题(Yes/No)并给出原因; 2) 用连接词(because, so)进行逻辑连接; 3) 提供具体例子说明偏好(例如完全安静或轻柔白噪音)。
Example: No, I don't find music very relaxing. I prefer complete silence because background sounds often distract me, so when I need to unwind I usually turn off music and sit quietly for a while.
What do you do to relax?
Score: 76.0Suggestion: 回答包含两个活动,但语句不够流畅,有填充词和断句问题。建议: 1) 用一到两句列出主要放松方式; 2) 用连接词说明频率或时长并补充具体感受或效果; 3) 删除多余语气词,保持每句简洁完整。
Example: I usually relax by either lying on my bed or taking a short walk. A ten-minute walk is often enough for me to get fresh air and clear my head, while lying down helps me rest and recover my energy.
× OK, so recently I, I will say I just pretty much stay in my apartment to relax, I mean, because there is no better place than you, uh, warm bed or your comfortable bed to make you feel even more relaxed.
✓ OK, so recently I, I would say I just pretty much stay in my apartment to relax, I mean, because there is no better place than your warm or comfortable bed to make you feel even more relaxed.
此句使用“will say”表達習慣或現在的情況不合適,應使用“would say”表示委婉或常態。原句中的“you, uh, warm bed or your comfortable bed”是人稱代詞使用錯誤並有多餘詞語,應改為“your warm or comfortable bed”。建議:用“would say”來表達個人意見或習慣;檢查人稱代詞是否正確並刪除多餘插入語。
× And yeah, that's what I really love to do when I'm trying to relax, just staying by myself.
✓ And yeah, that's what I really love to do when I'm trying to relax: just stay by myself.
原句在結尾使用動名詞“staying”與前面的不定式“to do”結構不一致,且更自然的表達是使用動詞原形“stay”。建議:保持動詞形式一致,這裡用不定式或原形更清晰。
× Well, usually I don't find music particularly relaxing for me because when I'm when I'm trying to relax, I prefer to not have any background noises.
✓ Well, usually I don't find music particularly relaxing for me because when I'm trying to relax, I prefer not to have any background noise.
錯誤1:重複片段“when I'm when I'm”是口語填充,應刪除冗餘。錯誤2:短語“prefer to not have”在正式語境常改為“prefer not to have”。錯誤3:不可數名詞使用錯誤,應為“background noise”而非複數“noises”。建議:刪除重複,使用“prefer not to”並注意不可數名詞的使用。
× So I will usually turn off all my music if I really want to relax and get rid of things from my mind.
✓ So I usually turn off all my music if I really want to relax and clear my mind.
原句“get rid of things from my mind”表達冗長且不自然,常用短語為“clear my mind”。另外“will usually”用法過於口語且與現在習慣性動作配應使用一般現在時“usually turn off”。建議:用“usually”+動詞原形表示習慣,並使用慣用短語“clear my mind”。
× Yeah, OK, so my favorite activity would be either just lying on my bed or I will probably go out for a small walk like, uh, usually just 10 minutes is enough for me, you know, to get some fresh air and. To appreciate.
✓ Yeah, OK, so my favorite activity would be either just lying on my bed or probably going out for a short walk — usually just 10 minutes is enough for me to get some fresh air and appreciate the surroundings.
錯誤1:“either... or”結構兩邊應保持平行,原句一邊用動名詞“lying”,另一邊用“I will probably go out”,應改為相同形式如“lying... or going”。錯誤2:片語“a small walk”用詞不自然,改為“a short walk”。錯誤3:句子被不完整的句點切斷(“and. To appreciate.”),需合併為完整短語“and appreciate the surroundings”。建議:保持並列結構一致,使用自然搭配詞,避免中斷句子。
