Are you good at memorising things?
Candidato
Yes, I'm pretty good at it. In my high school I majored in history and politics, so I had to memorize many dates and facts, and I often use the flash cards and regular versions to help me retain this information.
Examinador
Have you ever forgotten something important?
Candidato
Yes, once I forgot to reply to an e-mail from my professor and it was really embarrassing because it delayed the deadline. I had been overwhelmed with the tasks I need to do so I just forgot about it.
Examinador
What do you need to remember in your daily life?
Candidato
Well generally I need to remember something like drinking enough water because it is good for my health and also I need to reply all the message and e-mail so I wouldn't miss any appointment.
Examinador
How do you remember important things?
Candidato
I usually note down everything important on my phone and set a reminder so I won't forget about it. If there's something really important or urgent, I would even set an alarm or ask my friend to remind me of this.
Are you good at memorising things?
Puntuación: 78.0Sugerencia: 你的回答总体清晰、直接,但有几处可以改进:1) 句子较长且包含小错误(如“flash cards and regular versions”表述不明确),建议用更自然的短句,避免冗余。2) 增加一两点具体例子或方法细节(例如如何用抽认卡复习、复习频率),并用连接词使句子更连贯。3) 注意时态和词汇搭配(例如用“flashcards and spaced repetition”更自然)。
Ejemplo: Yes, I'm fairly good at memorising. In high school I studied history and politics, so I had to learn many dates and facts. To remember them I used flashcards and spaced-repetition apps, and I reviewed my cards every evening.
Have you ever forgotten something important?
Puntuación: 74.0Sugerencia: 回答内容真实但表述稍显笼统,有语法和时态问题(“delayed the deadline”不太合适;“tasks I need to do”应一致时态)。建议用两到三句呈现事情经过、原因和后果,并用连接词增强逻辑性,还可简单说明后来如何补救或学到的教训。
Ejemplo: Yes, once I forgot to reply to an email from my professor, which caused me to miss an important deadline. I was overwhelmed with tasks at the time, so I overlooked it. After that I started using calendar alerts to avoid repeating the mistake.
What do you need to remember in your daily life?
Puntuación: 72.0Sugerencia: 回答包含两个要点,但表达不够精确且有语法问题(如“reply all the message and e-mail”应为“reply to messages and emails”;“so I wouldn't miss”时态不一致)。建议将要点分为两句,每句提供一两个具体细节或频率,并使用连接词。
Ejemplo: Generally I need to remember to drink enough water every day because it keeps me healthy. I also need to reply to messages and emails promptly, so I set aside time each morning to check and respond to them.
How do you remember important things?
Puntuación: 82.0Sugerencia: 这是四题中最完整的答案,但可改进为更自然简洁的表达;注意时态一致(use 'would' vs 'will')并可以加入具体工具或例子(如哪款app,如何安排提醒)。建议保持两到三句,先给出主题句,再补充具体方法并用连接词。
Ejemplo: I usually write important tasks in my phone and set reminders so I don't forget them. For very urgent matters I set an alarm or ask a friend to remind me, and I often use a calendar app to schedule deadlines.
× I often use the flash cards and regular versions to help me retain this information.
✓ I often use flashcards and revision exercises to help me retain this information.
句子中“flash cards and regular versions”用词不自然且含义模糊。这里需要使用名词短语表示常见的复习工具,如“flashcards”(抽认卡)和“revision exercises”(复习练习)。同时将定冠词“the”去掉更符合常用表达。建议用更准确的名词替换模糊表达。
× Yes, once I forgot to reply to an e-mail from my professor and it was really embarrassing because it delayed the deadline.
✓ Yes, once I forgot to reply to an e-mail from my professor and it was really embarrassing because I missed the deadline.
原句中“it delayed the deadline”表达不符合语言习惯。应直接说主语(我)错过了截止日期,用过去时“missed the deadline”。句子时态保持一致,使用过去时描述已发生的事件。
× I had been overwhelmed with the tasks I need to do so I just forgot about it.
✓ I had been overwhelmed with the tasks I needed to do, so I just forgot about it.
句中时态不一致:前半句用过去完成进行时“had been overwhelmed”,后半句“need to do”用现在时不合适,应统一使用过去时“needed to do”。保持时态一致使句意明确。
× Well generally I need to remember something like drinking enough water because it is good for my health and also I need to reply all the message and e-mail so I wouldn't miss any appointment.
✓ Well, generally I need to remember things like drinking enough water because it is good for my health, and I also need to reply to all messages and e-mails so I don't miss any appointments.
原句存在代词和复数形错误:1) “something like drinking enough water”应为复数或不可数概念“things like”或直接“drinking enough water”;2) “reply all the message and e-mail”缺少介词“to”,且“message”应为复数“messages”,“e-mail”建议用复数“e-mails”;3) “wouldn't”不符合一般现在习惯性动作,应使用一般现在时“don't”。建议改为统一的复数和正确的介词,并用一般现在时表达日常习惯。
× I usually note down everything important on my phone and set a reminder so I won't forget about it.
✓ I usually note down everything important on my phone and set reminders so I won't forget them.
原句中“set a reminder so I won't forget about it”指代不明确。因为前面是“everything important”(复数/泛指),后半句中的“it”应改为复数“them”,并将“a reminder”改为复数“reminders”以匹配前文。保持指代一致可以避免歧义。
× If there's something really important or urgent, I would even set an alarm or ask my friend to remind me of this.
✓ If there's something really important or urgent, I will even set an alarm or ask my friend to remind me about it.
在条件句中使用“would”表示与现在事实相反或假设情形,但这里是描述习惯或将来可能采取的动作,应使用“will”。同时“remind me of this”虽可理解,但更自然的搭配是“remind me about it”。因此将“would”改为“will”,并调整指代词。
