What is your favourite food?
Điểm: 76.0Gợi ý: 回答直接且简短,但可改进语法准确性和丰富性。应用主题句后用一至两句具体细节(如烹饪方式、口味层次或搭配场景),并用连接词使表述更自然流畅。注意时态和冠词(a/the)等小语法点。
Ví dụ: My favourite food is chicken wings. I especially like them when they're grilled with a sweet glaze, because the caramelised skin adds a nice contrast to plain rice. They’re a great choice for casual dinners or barbecues.
What kind of food did you like when you were young?
Điểm: 70.0Gợi ý: 内容有具体细节和因果,但句子连接和语法有错误(例如主谓一致、时态和连词)。建议使用清晰的主题句,再用连接词(because, so, however)组织原因与结果,并简洁交代影响。避免重复表达。
Ví dụ: When I was a child I loved sweets like cakes and milk tea because they always cheered me up. However, I ate them too often, so now as an adult I have several cavities and try to avoid sugary snacks.
Do you eat different foods at different times of the year?
Điểm: 72.0Gợi ý: 回答结构清晰但有语法和措辞问题(主谓一致,代词指代)。可用连接词对比季节差异(in summer / in winter / whereas),并提供更具体的理由或场景说明为什么喜欢这些食物。

Has your favourite food changed since you were a child?
Điểm: 74.0Gợi ý: 回答包含对比和原因,但语法时态和表达(e.g. ‘‘such a spicy chicken’’)需改进。建议先给出直接回答,然后用一句简洁的对比和原因,并举具体例子。
Ví dụ: Yes, it has changed. As a child I ate a lot of sweets to feel better, but now I prefer spicy dishes like hot chicken wings because they’re more exciting and satisfying.
× I would typically indulge in sweets when I feeling down, eating them would lift my mood.
✓ I would typically indulge in sweets when I was feeling down; eating them would lift my mood.
句子中“when I feeling down”缺少be动词,应为“when I was feeling down”。这是动词短语的进行时态需要使用be + -ing形式。同时两个并列分句间用分号或连接词更清晰。建议记住在表示过去持续状态或情感时用过去进行时结构“was/were + -ing”。
× However, there was a downside. As an adult, I have quite a few cavities.
✓ However, there was a downside. As an adult, I have had quite a few cavities.
上下文谈及因童年爱吃糖导致的结果,第二句用现在完成时“have had”更能表示从过去到现在的经历或结果持续存在。如果说现在仍有蛀牙,用现在完成时更合适。建议在表达过去到现在的影响或经历时使用现在完成时。
× I like to eat fried chicken and coke in summer, which make me feel cool.
✓ I like to eat fried chicken and drink Coke in summer, which makes me feel cool.
原句中“which make me”主语指代前面整个短语“eat fried chicken and drink Coke”,作为单一情况时谓语应使用单数“makes”。另外“eat ... and coke”搭配不当,应该改为“eat fried chicken and drink Coke”。建议注意主语和动词在人称数上的一致,并使用恰当的动词搭配。
× In winter we usually eat hot pot which make people feel very warm.
✓ In winter we usually eat hot pot, which makes people feel very warm.
关系代词which指代整句或名词短语,谓语应与所指代的单数概念一致,故用“makes”。另外在主句和定语从句之间加逗号更自然。建议检查which后动词的数与先行词一致。
× Sure, when I was young I love eating sweets because they could always keep me in a good mood, but after growing up, I no longer rely on food to regulate my emotions.
✓ Sure. When I was young, I loved eating sweets because they could always keep me in a good mood, but after growing up, I no longer rely on food to regulate my emotions.
句子开头谈过去时期“when I was young”,应使用过去时“loved”。原文用现在时与时间状语不一致。建议在含有过去时间标志词的句子中统一使用过去时。
× I prefer spicy food, such a spicy chicken, which can give me a thrill.
✓ I prefer spicy food, such as spicy chicken, which can give me a thrill.
短语“such a spicy chicken”结构不正确,应为“such as spicy chicken”表示举例;“such a”后面接可数名词需更具体。建议用“such as”来举例,或改为“a spicy chicken dish”。
