Part 1

Have you ever bought something because of an advertisement?

Score: 62.0

Suggestion: 先直接回答,再用父亲的工作解释原因。注意时态和表达:用“works for an advertising company”描述职业;“advertising tricks”比“tricks of the advertisement”自然。末尾重复了开头的意思,可删去,并补充一个具体例子说明你如何判断广告。

Example: No, I haven’t. My father works for an advertising company, so he’s taught me to be cautious about persuasive marketing. For example, I usually check customer reviews before buying something I’ve seen in an ad.

Do you often see advertisements when you are on your phone or computer?

Score: 55.0

Suggestion: 回答切题,也表达了感受,但例句的语法不清楚。用“tap the wrong button on your phone”表达误触,用“an ad pops up”表达广告弹出;可用“especially”或“for instance”自然连接,并说明广告出现的场景。

Example: Yes, I do. Ads seem to be everywhere online these days. For instance, when I’m browsing a website on my phone, an ad sometimes pops up after I accidentally tap a link, which can be quite annoying.

Is there an advertisement that made an impression on you when you were a child?

Score: 45.0

Suggestion: 这个回答有具体画面,但品牌名称和广告内容表达不够清楚,且时态、主谓一致和措辞有问题。可以说“an eye-drop advertisement”以及“rented an entire wall”;用过去时描述童年记忆,并解释这则广告为什么让你印象深刻。

Example: Yes. I remember an eye-drop advertisement from when I was a child. The company had rented an entire wall and printed just one short sentence on it: “We rented this wall to give your eyes a rest.” I found the idea simple and memorable.

Do you see a lot of advertising on trains or other transport?

Score: 48.0

Suggestion: 回答里有个人感受,但“screams”应为“screens”,而且一般性问题不必突然切换时态。用“there are screens above the seats showing ads”描述车厢广告;再补充广告反复播放带来的影响。

Example: Yes, I do. On trains and buses, there are often screens above the seats showing advertisements. They sometimes play the same ad repeatedly, which can be distracting, especially on a long journey.

Do you like advertisements?

Score: 50.0

Suggestion: 态度明确,但“Advertisements is”主谓不一致,“making trouble in my life”也不自然。可改为“ads interrupt what I’m doing”,并用一个具体情境解释;“I really hate”语气较强,可用“find them irritating”表达得更自然。

Example: Not really. Online ads often interrupt what I’m doing, and it takes time to close them or skip them. I find that particularly irritating when I’m watching a video.

What kind of advertising do you like?

Score: 43.0

Suggestion: 观点可以理解,但句子结构混乱,且“having”重复、“charming ideas”搭配不自然。先说明喜欢的广告类型,再用“creative idea”或“engaging story”描述特点,并解释它如何吸引你。

Example: I like advertisements that are creative and entertaining. A clever idea or a short, engaging story can catch my attention and make the product easier to remember. I also appreciate ads that give useful information rather than just trying to sell something.

Grammar

6: Present tense issue

× No, I haven't because my father is working in an advertising company, so he told me a lot of tricks of the advertisement.

✓ No, I haven't because my father works in an advertising company, so he told me a lot of tricks about advertising.

这里是在说明父亲的长期工作情况,通常用一般现在时 works,而不是表示暂时或正在进行的现在进行时 is working。

11: Incorrect use of prepositions

× No, I haven't because my father is working in an advertising company, so he told me a lot of tricks of the advertisement.

✓ No, I haven't because my father works in an advertising company, so he told me a lot of tricks about advertising.

表达“关于广告的技巧”时,通常说 tricks about advertising。这里的 advertising 指“广告业/广告活动”,不需要加 the,也不宜用 of the advertisement 来泛指广告。

11: Incorrect use of prepositions

× For example, if you touch the wrong button your phone with a computer, there will be an advertisement jumps out and that's really annoying.

✓ For example, if you touch the wrong button on your phone or computer, there will be an advertisement that jumps out, and that's really annoying.

表示按钮位于手机或电脑上,应使用介词 on;这里列举两种设备,应使用 or,而不是 with。

26: Sentence structure errors

× For example, if you touch the wrong button your phone with a computer, there will be an advertisement jumps out and that's really annoying.

✓ For example, if you touch the wrong button on your phone or computer, there will be an advertisement that jumps out, and that's really annoying.

advertisement 后面不能直接接限定动词 jumps 来修饰它。应加关系代词 that,构成定语从句 that jumps out。

22: Article errors

× It's Lessons Eye Drop advertisement.

✓ It's a Lessons Eye Drop advertisement.

这里的 advertisement 是可数名词单数,前面需要加不定冠词 a。

5: Past tense issue

× When I was travelling by train or by bus, there will be several screams over your head and playing advertisements again and again and they were really annoying.

✓ When I was travelling by train or by bus, there were several screams over your head, and advertisements played again and again; they were really annoying.

整段描述的是过去乘车时的经历,there be 结构应使用过去式 were,而不是将来时 will be。

27: Subject-verb agreement errors

× Advertisements is making trouble in my life and closing them is also a kind of waste of time.

✓ Advertisements are making trouble in my life, and closing them is also a kind of waste of time.

Advertisements 是复数主语,因此 be 动词要用 are,不能用 is。注意区分复数名词和单数名词对应的 be 动词形式。

2: Third person singular issue

× I like the advertising which is interesting or if it really want to tell you something it must be having having charming ideas so it can attract me.

✓ I like advertising that is interesting or that has charming ideas and really wants to tell you something, so it can attract me.

it 是第三人称单数作主语,一般现在时的实义动词 want 应加 -s,改为 wants。

4: Modal verb usage

× I like the advertising which is interesting or if it really want to tell you something it must be having having charming ideas so it can attract me.

✓ I like advertising that is interesting or that has charming ideas and really wants to tell you something, so it can attract me.

情态动词 must 后应接动词原形。原句中的 must be having having 结构不恰当且重复;若保留该意思,应写成 must have charming ideas。
