Name— Part 1 Informe

Sugerencia: 先直接回答，再说明你如何利用名字的含义来记忆。注意主谓一致和表达自然度：可说“people’s names often have meanings”，不要说“everyone’s name have some their different meaning”。“名字的含义”和“性格”之间的关系需要说清楚，例如名字让你联想到某种特质。避免重复使用“remember”。

Ejemplo: Yes, I’m fairly good at remembering names. Many Chinese names have meanings, so I try to remember what a person’s name represents. Sometimes the meaning gives me an image or personality trait to connect with that person.

Sugerencia: 回答要说明一个清晰、可操作的方法。把“remember their names connect with their many features”改成“connect their names with their appearance or personality”等自然表达；“ask them to give me some meaning”可改为“ask them what their name means”。删除重复的“to”和填充词，并补充一个简短例子。

Ejemplo: I usually connect a person’s name with a noticeable feature, such as their hairstyle or personality. If I’m curious, I ask them what their name means. That personal connection makes the name easier to recall.

Sugerencia: 先清楚表达感受，再解释原因和应对方式。把“name is like a symbol”换成更相关的理由，例如“names can be difficult to remember”；“Someone I don't have a really good memory”意思不清，可说“Sometimes people have trouble remembering names”。说明你会友善地再次介绍自己，并注意“so that”后使用完整、正确的句子。

Ejemplo: I don’t really mind if someone forgets my name. Names can be difficult to remember, especially when you meet a lot of people. I just remind them of my name in a friendly way so they don’t feel embarrassed.

Sugerencia: 回答直接，理由也相关，但表达有重复和语法问题。用“if someone tells me their name”替代“if the person tell me her name”，并将“at the next time”改为“the next time I see them”。可以用具体做法补充理由，例如下次见面时主动称呼对方的名字。

Ejemplo: Not very often, because I’m quite good at remembering names. When someone introduces themselves, I try to pay attention and repeat their name in my mind. The next time I see them, I make a point of using their name in conversation.

× Yes, it's quite easy because in Chinese everyone's name have some their different meaning.

✓ Yes, it's quite easy because in Chinese everyone's name has some their different meaning.

“Everyone's name”是单数主语，因此一般现在时动词应使用第三人称单数形式“has”，不能用“have”。

× Yes, it's quite easy because in Chinese everyone's name have some their different meaning.

✓ Yes, it's quite easy because in Chinese everyone's name has a different meaning.

“Some”和物主限定词“their”不能这样叠加使用。这里想表达“每个人的名字都有不同的含义”，可用“a different meaning”。

× I often remember their names um connect with their many features and sometimes I will ask them to to give me some meaning of their names.

✓ I often remember their names by connecting them with their many features, and sometimes I will ask them to give me some meaning of their names.

表示“通过某种方式”时，此处用介词“by”引出方式，后面的动词应使用动名词形式“connecting”，而不是原形“connect”。

× Mmm, because name is like a symbol.

✓ Mmm, because a name is like a symbol.

“Name”在这里是单数可数名词，泛指一个名字时需要加不定冠词“a”。

× Someone I don't have a really good memory.

✓ I don't have a really good memory.

“Someone”不能放在这里充当连接词或句子成分，导致句子结构不完整。删去它后，主语“I”和谓语“don't have”构成完整句子。

× So I often will tell my name again so that can mmm don't make the person feel embarrassed.

✓ So I often will tell them my name again so that I don't make the person feel embarrassed.

“Can”和“don't”不能按原句的形式连用。“So that”后需要完整的主语和谓语；这里可直接用“I don't make”表达“这样就不会让对方尴尬”。

× So I often will tell my name again so that can mmm don't make the person feel embarrassed.

✓ So I often will tell them my name again so that I don't make the person feel embarrassed.

“So that”引导目的或结果从句时，需要有明确主语。原句中“can”前缺少主语；补上“I”后，句子结构才完整。

× Not really, um, because I have a good memory and I if the person tell me um her name I will remember it and at the next time I will talk to her and call her name.

✓ Not really, because I have a good memory. If the person tells me her name, I will remember it, and next time I talk to her, I will call her by name.

原句中“and I if”语序不正确，应将条件从句“If the person tells me her name”放在主句“I will remember it”之前，或用合适的标点分开句子。

× If the person tell me her name, I will remember it.

✓ If the person tells me her name, I will remember it.

“The person”是第三人称单数，条件从句使用一般现在时，因此动词“tell”应加“-s”，改为“tells”。

× At the next time I will talk to her and call her name.

✓ Next time I talk to her, I will call her by name.

表示“下次”时，通常直接说“next time”，不需要在前面加介词“at”。另外，表达“称呼某人”时用“call someone by name”。
