Do you prefer to sit by the window when travelling?
考生
Not really, I prefer to sit in an out seat because it gives me more space to stress my leg, especially on the long journeys. Also I can't get up early and get off the plane faster when we land.

Did you have a long journey with your family as a child?
考生
Yes, I remember we took eight hour flight with my family last month to the United States. It feels like a long journey because it's on the other side of the world, but we enjoy the trip and sleep most of the day
Do you prefer to sit by the window when travelling?
分数: 58.0建议: Be more natural and accurate: start with a clear topic sentence, correct vocabulary and grammar, and avoid redundancy. Use linking words and specific reasons. For example, say you prefer an aisle seat, explain two clear reasons (more legroom and easier access), and connect them with linking words. Keep responses to no more than 4–5 sentences and correct collocations (e.g., 'stretch my legs', 'get off the plane quickly').
示例: I prefer an aisle seat. Firstly, it lets me stretch my legs more, which is important on long flights. Secondly, I can get up and use the restroom or leave the plane quickly when we land. For those reasons, an aisle seat suits me better than a window seat.
Did you have a long journey with your family as a child?
分数: 62.0建议: Be careful with tenses and facts (child vs last month). Begin with a clear topic sentence answering the question about childhood. If referring to a childhood trip, use past tense and give specific details (age, destination, activities). If you mean a recent trip, acknowledge the mismatch and answer accordingly. Use linking words and add one or two specific details to enrich the answer.
示例: Yes — when I was about ten, my family took a long flight to visit relatives in the United States. The flight lasted around eight hours, which felt very long for me as a child. We tried to sleep during most of the journey, and my parents brought games and snacks to keep us entertained.
× Not really, I prefer to sit in an out seat because it gives me more space to stress my leg, especially on the long journeys.
✓ Not really, I prefer to sit in an aisle seat because it gives me more space to stretch my leg, especially on long journeys.
The phrase 'stress my leg' is incorrect; the correct verb is 'stretch' (verb + base form) to indicate extending the leg. Also 'an out seat' is nonstandard; 'aisle seat' is the correct collocation. Remove the definite article 'the' before 'long journeys' when speaking generally. Suggestion: use 'stretch my leg' and 'aisle seat', and say 'on long journeys' for general statements.
× Also I can't get up early and get off the plane faster when we land.
✓ Also I can get up easily and get off the plane faster when we land.
The original 'I can't get up early' contradicts the intended meaning (wanting to be able to leave seat quickly). Using 'can't' is a modal verb error. Replace with 'can' or rephrase 'I can get up easily' to express ability to stand and exit quickly. If the student meant inability to wake early, keep 'can't' but context implies ability to leave seat, so 'can' is appropriate.
× Yes, I remember we took eight hour flight with my family last month to the United States.
✓ Yes, I remember we took an eight-hour flight with my family to the United States last month.
Missing article and hyphen: 'an eight-hour flight' requires the indefinite article 'an' and hyphens when used as a compound adjective. Word order: time phrases like 'last month' usually come after the object. Also 'eight hour' should be hyphenated as 'eight-hour'.
× It feels like a long journey because it's on the other side of the world, but we enjoy the trip and sleep most of the day
✓ It felt like a long journey because it was on the other side of the world, but we enjoyed the trip and slept most of the day.
Tense inconsistency: the student begins with past reference 'I remember' and should keep the past tense for related clauses. Use past simple 'felt', 'was', 'enjoyed', and 'slept' to maintain consistent past narration.
