Do you think bikes are popular in your country?
Thí sinh
Yes, bikes are very popular in my country which is China. I see a lot of bikes on the road no matter in the big cities, small towns or even in the village. I think it's quite community for people to use the bikes and I love it.
Did you have a bike when you were a child?
Điểm: 55.0Gợi ý: 回答基本切题,但时态和表达不够自然。谈论童年经历时,应使用过去时:将 “don't have” 改为 “didn't have”;“When I was born” 不适合表达整个童年时期,可以改为 “When I was a child”。此外,“at twelve years old” 应改为 “when I was twelve” 或 “at the age of twelve”。建议先直接回答,再补充获得自行车的时间或原因,并使用更自然的连接词。
Ví dụ: No, I didn’t have a bike when I was a child. My family didn’t buy me one until I was twelve because we didn’t really need one in our neighborhood. I started riding it to school after that.
Do you think bikes are popular in your country?
Điểm: 65.0Gợi ý: 回答观点明确,也提供了城市、城镇和乡村的具体范围,但部分表达不自然。“my country which is China”可以简化为 “China”或 “my country”;“no matter in...”应改为 “whether in... or...”或 “in...”的并列结构;“quite community”用词错误,应改为 “quite common”或 “a common form of transport”。最后,可以补充一个具体原因,例如自行车环保、方便或适合短途出行,并用 “because”连接。
Ví dụ: Yes, bikes are very popular in China. You can see them everywhere, whether you are in a big city, a small town, or a village. They are especially common for short journeys because they are cheap, convenient, and environmentally friendly. In many cities, people also use shared bikes to get around.
× No, I don't have one.
✓ No, I didn't have one.
问题是时态不一致。考官问的是“你小时候有没有自行车”,讨论的是过去的经历,所以应该使用一般过去时。将“don't have”改为“didn't have”。
× I see a lot of bikes on the road no matter in the big cities, small towns or even in the village.
✓ I see a lot of bikes on the roads, whether in big cities, small towns, or even villages.
“no matter in...”的结构不正确。表示“无论是在……”时,可以使用“whether in A, B, or C”。另外,列举多个地点时,名词通常使用复数形式,如“cities”“towns”和“villages”。以后列举地点时,可以使用“whether in A, B, or C”这一结构。
× I think it's quite community for people to use the bikes and I love it.
✓ I think it's quite convenient for people to use bikes, and I love it.
“community”是名词,意思是“社区”,不能放在“quite”后面作表语来表示“方便的”。这里需要使用形容词“convenient”。此外,泛指自行车这种交通方式时,通常说“use bikes”,不需要使用定冠词“the”。
