Part 1
試験官
Where do you go to relax recently?
受験者
I have two days off every week and I often use these two days to visit some wild places such as mountains, rivers and places that I've never been to before. Last weekend I went to a mountain.
試験官
Who do you usually relax with?
受験者
Well, I often react by myself. I can always enjoy being alone. For example, I often use my time to relax by reading a book, watching a movie, or grabbing a cup of coffee in a quiet cafe.
試験官
Do you think listening to music is relaxing?
受験者
Yes, I do, but I think it really depends on what sort of music it is. I mean, will you listen to positive music or soft music? I think they can really help people relax.
試験官

受験者
Personally, I often do a wide range of things to relax myself. For example, I often visit museums where I always find some interesting things to explore. Second, I often invite some of my friends to climb mountains.
Where do you go to relax recently?
スコア: 72.0提案: 回答切题,也提供了休假频率和上周末的例子。可以先直接说明你喜欢去自然环境中放松,再减少“these two days”和“places”的重复。“wild places”在这里不太自然,可换成“places in nature”;最后补充具体活动或原因,让细节更充分。
例: I usually go somewhere in nature to relax, such as a mountain or a riverside. I have two days off each week, so I sometimes use one of them to explore a new place. Last weekend, I went hiking in the mountains, and the fresh air helped me unwind.
Who do you usually relax with?
スコア: 62.0提案: 你表达了喜欢独处,也给出了阅读、看电影和喝咖啡等例子,内容较具体。注意“react by myself”用词错误,应改为“relax by myself”或“spend time alone”;“I can always enjoy being alone”也可改得更自然。可以说明独处为什么能让你放松。
例: I usually relax by myself because I enjoy having some quiet time. I might read a book, watch a film, or have a coffee in a peaceful café. It helps me clear my mind after a busy week.
Do you think listening to music is relaxing?
スコア: 68.0提案: 回答直接,并指出音乐类型会影响放松效果,这是有用的补充。避免用“will you listen to...”来提出反问,可直接说明你觉得哪些音乐有帮助;“positive music”不够自然,可根据意思使用“upbeat music”或“soothing music”。再补充一个个人例子会更有说服力。
例: Yes, I do, although it depends on the type of music. Soft, soothing music helps me relax, while upbeat music can improve my mood when I feel tired. I often listen to calm music before bed.
What do you do to relax?
スコア: 72.0提案: 你提供了参观博物馆和与朋友爬山两种具体活动,内容有一定展开。开头的“do a wide range of things to relax myself”较冗长,可简化为“do several things to relax”。“Second”在这里略显生硬,可以用“Also”;同时减少“often”的重复,并说明这些活动各自如何帮助你放松。
例: I usually relax by visiting museums or going hiking with friends. I enjoy exploring the exhibits because I often learn something new. When we climb a mountain, the exercise and scenery help me forget about work for a while.
× Where do you go to relax recently?
✓ Where have you been going to relax recently?
“Recently”通常指从过去持续到现在或近期发生的情况,因此这里用现在完成进行时“have been going”更合适。提问近期持续或反复进行的活动时,可以使用“Where have you been going… recently?”
