朋友— Part 1 评分报告

建议: Answer the question more directly and complete the final idea. Use “at restaurants” rather than “restaurants,” and replace “we cannot make enough” with a clear expression such as “we cannot make enough time.” Avoid repeated fillers such as “uh” and connect the past and present contrast more smoothly.

示例: Yes, there is a clear difference. When I was younger, I usually met my friends outdoors after school to play. These days, we are much busier, so we tend to meet at restaurants or shopping malls when we can make time.

建议: Give a more natural topic sentence, such as “It depends on the atmosphere and facilities.” Avoid the awkward phrase “the purpose of the facility is for a specific one” and say “the place is designed for a particular purpose.” Use “grabbing a coffee” without “the,” and explain why Starbucks is suitable, for example, because it has comfortable seating and a relaxed atmosphere.

示例: Some places are suitable because they have a comfortable atmosphere and enough space to talk. For example, Starbucks is designed for people to stay for a while, rather than just grab a coffee and leave. In contrast, a crowded shop or a noisy station would make conversation difficult.

建议: Your preference and reason are clear, but avoid repetitions such as “I I” and “like like.” Say “a deeper conversation” or, more naturally, “deeper conversations.” You could add a specific benefit, such as being able to discuss personal matters more comfortably.

示例: I prefer spending time with one close friend rather than with a large group. I feel more comfortable in a one-to-one setting because we can have deeper conversations and focus on each other. It is also easier to choose an activity that we both enjoy.

建议: Use “I would invite” because the question asks about a hypothetical preference. Replace “home party” with “a party at home” or “a small gathering,” and avoid fillers and the repeated conclusion. Explain what you would do together to make the answer more specific.

示例: Yes, I would definitely invite my friends to my home. My room is quite spacious, and I enjoy cooking, so I could prepare a meal for everyone. We could have a small gathering, listen to music, and chat in a relaxed atmosphere.

建议: State the importance more directly and avoid repeating “I can.” Use “when I am having difficulties” instead of “if I have difficulty,” and say “if I get into trouble,” not “if I get in some troubles.” Add a concluding sentence about emotional support or trust.

示例: Friends are extremely important to me because they provide emotional and practical support. When I am having difficulties, I can talk to them and ask for advice. I also know that they would help me if I got into trouble, so I really value their trust and companionship.

建议: The answer is relevant and includes a useful past-versus-present comparison. Say “I have rarely gone out recently” or “I rarely go out these days,” and replace “outside place” with “public places.” Use parallel grammar in “browsing in shops and watching movies,” and reduce fillers.

示例: I rarely go out with my friends these days because I am much busier than I used to be. In the past, we often went to shopping malls, where we browsed in shops and watched movies at the cinema. Now, we usually meet only when our schedules allow it.

建议: There is a contradiction between “during daytime” and “having dinner,” so clarify when you usually meet. Use “at a café or restaurant” and avoid repeating “we.” Give one or two reasons why these places are convenient, such as their location or comfortable atmosphere.

示例: We usually meet at cafés or restaurants near our university. They are convenient because they are easy to reach and provide a comfortable place to talk. Since our schedules are busy, we often arrange to have dinner together in the evening.

建议: This is a clear and relevant answer with a specific reason. Improve the linking by placing a comma after “as I mentioned” and adding “that” before “we are busier,” or use “because our hospital rotations make us busier.” You could briefly mention what you do during dinner to enrich the response.

示例: I usually have dinner with my friends when we have time. Our hospital rotations keep us busy, so evenings are generally the most convenient time for us. While we eat, we talk about our day and catch up on university life.

建议: The answer is well organized and includes a clear timeline and specific detail. Add articles in “for a long time” and “an elementary school student,” and use “whom” or the more natural “a close friend I have known for a long time.” Add a linking word before the final result to make the relationship between the ideas clearer.

示例: Yes, I have a close friend whom I have known for a long time. We first met when we were elementary school students, and now we attend the same university. As a result, we often study together and support each other with our coursework.

× It was different in that I used to meet my friends outside to play after school, but now, umm, I often see my friends, uh, restaurants or in the, uh, shopping malls because we get much busier compared to before, so we cannot make uh enough.

✓ It was different in that I used to meet my friends outside to play after school, but now I often see my friends at restaurants or in shopping malls because we are much busier than before, so we cannot make enough time to meet as often.

The preposition at is used before restaurants when referring to the place where you meet someone. The preposition in is appropriate for shopping malls. We also say much busier than before, not much busier compared to before, in this comparison.

× It was different in that I used to meet my friends outside to play after school, but now, umm, I often see my friends, uh, restaurants or in the, uh, shopping malls because we get much busier compared to before, so we cannot make uh enough.

✓ It was different in that I used to meet my friends outside to play after school, but now I often see my friends at restaurants or in shopping malls because we are much busier than before, so we cannot make enough time to meet as often.

The phrase cannot make enough is incomplete because make needs a noun in this context. The natural expression is cannot make enough time. Adding to meet as often completes the meaning of the sentence.

× For example, I noticed Starbucks was built for staying for a long time rather than just for grabbing the coffee.

✓ For example, I noticed Starbucks was built for staying for a long time rather than just for grabbing coffee.

Coffee is used as an uncountable noun when referring to coffee in general, so it normally does not take the definite article the in this expression.

× I prefer to spend time with one friend rather than many friends of mine because I I don't like like hanging out with many people. I just want to focus on one person because I can have deeper conversation.

✓ I prefer to spend time with one friend rather than many friends of mine because I do not like hanging out with many people. I just want to focus on one person because I can have a deeper conversation.

A singular countable noun such as conversation needs an article. Use a deeper conversation when referring to one conversation. The repeated words I and like are speech disfluencies rather than grammar errors.

× I will invite my friends to my home, uh, because my room is comparatively spacious and I love, uh, like cooking or home party, uh, with my friends.

✓ I will invite my friends to my home because my room is relatively spacious, and I like cooking or having parties at home with my friends.

The original sentence does not coordinate the activities clearly: cooking and home party are not in parallel grammatical forms. Using cooking and having parties creates a clear parallel structure. The phrase having parties at home is also the natural expression.

× Friends are significant to me in that I can I can ask them to listen to my story if I have difficulty and also I ask my friends to help me if I get in some troubles.

✓ Friends are significant to me because I can ask them to listen to my problems if I have difficulties, and I can also ask my friends to help me if I get into trouble.

The fixed expression is get into trouble, not get in troubles. The preposition into is required because it indicates entering a difficult situation. The repeated phrase I can is a speech disfluency and has been removed.

× Friends are significant to me in that I can I can ask them to listen to my story if I have difficulty and also I ask my friends to help me if I get in some troubles.

✓ Friends are significant to me because I can ask them to listen to my problems if I have difficulties, and I can also ask my friends to help me if I get into trouble.

Trouble is usually an uncountable noun in the expression get into trouble, so it should not be made plural or used with some here. The phrase if I get into trouble is the standard form.

× I rarely go out with my friends recently because I'm much busier compared to before, but I used to hang out with my friends uh, outside place such as in shopping malls to uh enjoy browsing and also watch movie in the cinema.

✓ I rarely go out with my friends these days because I am much busier than before, but I used to hang out with my friends in places such as shopping malls to enjoy browsing and also watch movies at the cinema.

The natural preposition is in places, not outside place. We also say at the cinema when referring to the location generally. In addition, than is the usual word after a comparative adjective such as busier.

× I rarely go out with my friends recently because I'm much busier compared to before, but I used to hang out with my friends uh, outside place such as in shopping malls to uh enjoy browsing and also watch movie in the cinema.

✓ I rarely go out with my friends these days because I am much busier than before, but I used to hang out with my friends in places such as shopping malls to enjoy browsing and also watch movies at the cinema.

The plural noun places is needed because the sentence refers to several possible locations. Movie should also be plural because the speaker is describing watching movies as a general past activity.

× I rarely go out with my friends recently because I'm much busier compared to before, but I used to hang out with my friends uh, outside place such as in shopping malls to uh enjoy browsing and also watch movie in the cinema.

✓ I rarely go out with my friends these days because I am much busier than before, but I used to hang out with my friends in places such as shopping malls to enjoy browsing and also watch movies at the cinema.

Movie is a singular countable noun and therefore needs an article, but the sentence describes the activity in general. The plural form movies is more natural here. Also, places and shopping malls are used without the article the because they refer to locations generally.

× I often see my friends at the cafe or the restaurant, uh, because now we'll visit during daytime, so we, uh, we often make the time for having dinner at the restaurants.

✓ I often see my friends at cafes or restaurants because now we meet during the daytime, and we often make time to have dinner at restaurants.

The question asks about a usual or repeated activity, so the present tense meet is more appropriate than the future form will visit. Use the present tense to describe current routines.

× I often see my friends at the cafe or the restaurant, uh, because now we'll visit during daytime, so we, uh, we often make the time for having dinner at the restaurants.

✓ I often see my friends at cafes or restaurants because now we meet during the daytime, and we often make time to have dinner at restaurants.

Because and so should not normally be used together to connect the same cause-and-effect relationship. Because already introduces the reason, so it should be replaced with and in the second part.

× I have a close friend who I have known for long time. I met her for the first time when I was elementary school student and now we go to the same university so we often study together.

✓ I have a close friend whom I have known for a long time. I met her for the first time when I was an elementary school student, and now we go to the same university, so we often study together.

The expression is for a long time, so the article a is required. Elementary school student is a singular countable noun phrase, so it also needs an article: an elementary school student. The article an is used because elementary begins with a vowel sound.
