Examinador
Have you ever bought something because of an advertisement?
Candidato
Good job! - You answered the question directly and gave a concrete example, which is exactly what examiners want in Part 1. - Content is relevant and coherent: you explained the purchase, the advertising channel (social media) and the outcome (didn't fit). - Vocabulary is adequate and the message is clear. Improvement suggestions: - 語法與句子結構:原句是單一較長的句子,建議拆成兩句以提高流暢度與清晰度,並修正時態與小語法問題(例如 "these days" 和 "once" 用法會產生時間上混淆,建議用單一時間點或明確現在/過去對比)。 - 詳細度與延伸:可補充為何廣告吸引你(設計、名人代言、折扣等)或說明不合身的具體原因(尺寸、剪裁與照片落差),以展示更豐富的詞彙與表達能力。 - 詞彙多樣性:可用更多不同動詞與形容詞(influenced → persuaded/tempted; didn't fit → was too tight/too large/poor fit)來提升分數。 - 流利度/連接詞:使用連接詞(for example, however, because)能讓句子更自然順暢。 Improved example: Yes. Recently I was persuaded by an advertisement on social media to buy a white sweater.
Examinador
Do you often see advertisements when you are on your phone or computer?
Candidato
Now, seeing advertisement every day on our phone is inevitable. We will see it in applications, games and everywhere.
Examinador
Is there an advertisement that made an impression on you when you were a child?
Candidato
I can still remember an advertisement of rainbow candy in that ad, a giraffe bit of the rainbow and squid out rainbow candy on it, which is really impressive.
Examinador
Do you see a lot of advertising on trains or other transport?
Candidato
Yes, I can see a ton of advertisements on public transport like buses and subways. As their fees aren't expensive, they are basically unable to make a profit. So advertisement is a way to achieve a balance between income and expenses.
Examinador
Do you like advertisements?
Candidato
I don't really like them, but I won't say that I dislike them because some of the good advertisements spread some good values. Although they are for profit purposes, most of them can be meaningful.

What kind of advertising do you like?
Candidato
I like advertisements related to pet rice because people need to recognize that pets still need laws to regulate their legal right.
Have you ever bought something because of an advertisement?
Pontuação: 65.0Sugestão: 目前缺少你的原始回答,因此只能根据附带评语估分。评语显示你有直接回答问题,并提供了购买物品、广告来源和结果等具体信息。建议补充广告吸引你的原因,例如设计或折扣,并说明毛衣具体哪里不合身;同时用清楚的过去时表达整个经历。
Exemplo: Yes. I was once tempted by an advertisement for a white sweater on social media. I liked its simple design, so I decided to buy it. However, it was too tight when I tried it on.
Do you often see advertisements when you are on your phone or computer?
Pontuação: 65.0Sugestão: 回答切题,也举出了应用和游戏等例子。注意 advertisement 是可数名词,泛指时应使用复数 advertisements;“on our phone”可改成“on our phones”。“in applications, games and everywhere”略显重复,可以补充一个具体场景或说明广告出现的频率。
Exemplo: Yes, I see advertisements almost every day when I use my phone. They often pop up in social media apps and mobile games. Sometimes they even appear while I’m watching videos.
Is there an advertisement that made an impression on you when you were a child?
Pontuação: 52.0Sugestão: 你提到了具体的广告画面,这是很好的内容方向。不过句子结构不清晰,“in that ad”重复,“squid out”也不是这里合适的表达;如果想表达“挤出”,可以用“squirted out”。建议说明长颈鹿做了什么,以及这个画面为什么让你印象深刻。
Exemplo: Yes, I still remember an advert for rainbow candy from my childhood. It showed a giraffe biting into a rainbow and making colourful sweets appear. I found the image funny and imaginative, so it stayed in my memory.
Do you see a lot of advertising on trains or other transport?
Pontuação: 50.0Sugestão: 你直接回答了问题,也提到了公交车和地铁。不过“their fees”指代不清,“广告是为了平衡收支”的逻辑也需要解释得更准确。可以说公共交通运营成本较高,而广告收入能帮助补贴这些开支。注意 advertisement 泛指时通常用复数或不可数表达,如 advertising。
Exemplo: Yes, I see a lot of advertisements on buses and trains. They’re often displayed above the seats or on the station platforms. Since public transport is expensive to operate, advertising can provide extra income for transport companies.
Do you like advertisements?
Pontuação: 66.0Sugestão: 回答表达了较为细致的态度,也给出了广告能够传播正面价值观的理由。可以减少“like/dislike”和“good”重复;“for profit purposes”不够自然,可改为“designed to make a profit”。“most of them can be meaningful”说法较绝对,最好加上具体例子或限定范围。
Exemplo: I’m not particularly fond of advertisements, especially when they interrupt videos. However, some campaigns promote useful messages, such as protecting the environment or supporting public health. Those adverts can be meaningful even though they’re also designed to promote a product or cause.
What kind of advertising do you like?
Pontuação: 49.0Sugestão: 你表达了喜欢与宠物权益相关的广告,并说明了原因。这里的“pet rice”应确认是否想说“pet rights”;“their legal right”应改为复数“their legal rights”,但更自然的表达是“laws to protect animals”。建议说明你喜欢这类广告的具体主题,例如领养、反虐待或动物保护。
Exemplo: I like advertisements that raise awareness of animal welfare and pet rights. For example, campaigns encouraging people to adopt pets can make a real difference. They also remind the public that animals need proper care and legal protection.
× Now, seeing advertisement every day on our phone is inevitable.
✓ Nowadays, seeing advertisements on our phones every day is inevitable.
这里泛指每天会看到的广告,advertisement 是可数名词,应使用复数 advertisements。our phone 也应改为 our phones,与泛指的使用者相对应。描述普遍情况时,Nowadays 比 Now 更自然。
× We will see it in applications, games and everywhere.
✓ We will see them in apps, games, and everywhere.
前一句说的是复数 advertisements,因此这里应使用复数代词 them,而不是单数 it。使用代词时,要确保它与所指名词的单复数一致。
× I can still remember an advertisement of rainbow candy in that ad, a giraffe bit of the rainbow and squid out rainbow candy on it, which is really impressive.
✓ I can still remember an advertisement for rainbow candy. In the ad, a giraffe bit into a rainbow and squirted rainbow candy out of its mouth, which I found really impressive.
表示“某种糖果的广告”时,通常用 advertisement for,而不是 advertisement of。表达“咬进彩虹”应使用 bit into;表达“从嘴里喷出”应使用 out of。修改介词搭配时,可以记住常见表达并在句子中完整练习。
× I can still remember an advertisement of rainbow candy in that ad, a giraffe bit of the rainbow and squid out rainbow candy on it, which is really impressive.
✓ I can still remember an advertisement for rainbow candy. In the ad, a giraffe bit into a rainbow and squirted rainbow candy out of its mouth, which I found really impressive.
这里是在回忆广告中发生的动作,因此应使用过去时。squid 不是动词 squirt 的正确过去式,应改为 squirted。讲述过去发生的事情时,要使用动词的过去式,并注意不规则动词和规则动词的变化。
× So advertisement is a way to achieve a balance between income and expenses.
✓ So advertising is a way to achieve a balance between income and expenses.
advertisement 是可数名词,单数形式通常不能单独使用;此处表达“广告宣传”这一活动,用不可数名词 advertising 更合适。可以区分 advertisement(一个广告)和 advertising(广告宣传活动)。
× I like advertisements related to pet rice because people need to recognize that pets still need laws to regulate their legal right.
✓ I like advertisements related to pet rice because people need to recognize that pets still need laws to regulate their legal rights.
pets 是复数,后面的 their 指代这些宠物所拥有的权利,因此 right 应改为复数 rights。检查名词单复数时,要留意名词所指对象的数量。
