Did you have any opportunities to take part in new activities as a child?
Puntuación: 62.0Sugerencia: 回答直接,但语法错误较多,影响自然度。首先,应使用过去时,因为问题询问童年经历:将“have”改为“had”,“teach”改为“taught”。其次,应使用正确搭配,如“a new activity”或“new activities”、“join a football team”而不是“join in a football team”。最后,可以用“because”或“as a result”连接细节,并具体说明学到了什么,例如团队合作或坚持。
Ejemplo: Yes, I had the opportunity to try something new when I was a child. I joined a football team and played with other teenagers every weekend. As a result, I learned how to cooperate with others and became more confident.
Should people try as many different things as they can?
Puntuación: 66.0Sugerencia: 观点明确,也给出了尝试新事物的理由,但表达中有较多“uh”,影响流利度和自然度。“about the whole life, it is short”应改为“life is short”;“gain more fun”可改为“have more fun”;“be more happy for”应改为“be happier”。建议使用“Firstly”和“Moreover”组织两个理由,并加入一个具体例子,使内容更完整。
Ejemplo: Yes, I think people should try different things whenever possible. Life is short, and trying new activities can make it more enjoyable. Moreover, people can develop new skills and discover their interests. For example, learning a musical instrument might help someone become more creative and confident.
× Yes, I have an opportunity to take part in a new activities.
✓ Yes, I had an opportunity to take part in new activities.
问题发生在回答过去经历的问题中。因为考官使用了过去时“Did you have...”,所以这里应使用过去时“had”,而不是现在时“have”。
× Yes, I have an opportunity to take part in a new activities.
✓ Yes, I had an opportunity to take part in new activities.
“activities”是可数名词复数,不能与表示单数的“a”连用。应删除“a”,使用“new activities”。
× Yes, I have an opportunity to take part in a new activities.
✓ Yes, I had an opportunity to take part in new activities.
不定冠词“a”只能修饰单数可数名词,不能修饰复数名词“activities”。因此应删除“a”。
× When I was a child I was asked to join in a football team and I played with other teenagers every weekend and this teach me a lot.
✓ When I was a child, I was asked to join a football team, and I played with other teenagers every weekend. This taught me a lot.
“join”表示加入某个组织或团队时,后面直接接宾语,不使用“in”。因此应说“join a football team”,而不是“join in a football team”。
× When I was a child I was asked to join in a football team and I played with other teenagers every weekend and this teach me a lot.
✓ When I was a child, I was asked to join a football team, and I played with other teenagers every weekend. This taught me a lot.
“When I was a child”和“played”都表示过去的经历,所以“teach”也必须使用过去式“taught”。
× When I was a child I was asked to join in a football team and I played with other teenagers every weekend and this teach me a lot.
✓ When I was a child, I was asked to join a football team, and I played with other teenagers every weekend. This taught me a lot.
“this”是第三人称单数主语。在一般现在时中应使用“teaches”;但本句描述过去经历,所以正确形式是过去式“taught”。
× Uh, yes, I think people should try as many different things as they can because uh, about the whole life, it is short and we need to gain more fun and uh, trying new things can help us, uh, be more happy for and gain more skills.
✓ Uh, yes, I think people should try as many different things as they can because life is short, and we need to have more fun. Trying new things can help us be happier and gain more skills.
“about the whole life”不能正确表达“人生很短”。这里不需要“about”,可以直接说“life is short”。如果想表达“在人生中”,也可以使用“throughout our lives”。
× Uh, yes, I think people should try as many different things as they can because uh, about the whole life, it is short and we need to gain more fun and uh, trying new things can help us, uh, be more happy for and gain more skills.
✓ Uh, yes, I think people should try as many different things as they can because life is short, and we need to have more fun. Trying new things can help us be happier and gain more skills.
这里的“life”表示一种普遍概念,不是某个特定的人生,所以通常不使用定冠词“the”。应说“life is short”,而不是“the whole life is short”。
× Uh, yes, I think people should try as many different things as they can because uh, about the whole life, it is short and we need to gain more fun and uh, trying new things can help us, uh, be more happy for and gain more skills.
✓ Uh, yes, I think people should try as many different things as they can because life is short, and we need to have more fun. Trying new things can help us be happier and gain more skills.
“happy for”在这里用法不正确。“happy for”通常表示“替某人感到高兴”,例如“I’m happy for you”。本句想表达“变得更快乐”,应使用“be happier”。
× Uh, yes, I think people should try as many different things as they can because uh, about the whole life, it is short and we need to gain more fun and uh, trying new things can help us, uh, be more happy for and gain more skills.
✓ Uh, yes, I think people should try as many different things as they can because life is short, and we need to have more fun. Trying new things can help us be happier and gain more skills.
“happy”是以辅音字母加“y”结尾的形容词,比较级通常把“y”变成“i”再加“-er”,所以应使用“happier”,而不是“more happy”。
