名字— Part 1 評分報告

建議: Your answer is direct, natural, and well supported. The contrast introduced by “However” is effective, and the reasons are specific. To make it even more conversational, you could briefly explain why familiar or unusual names are easier for you to remember.

範例: No, I often find it difficult to remember people's names, especially if they have unfamiliar pronunciations or characters. However, I tend to remember unusual names because they stand out, and familiar names are easier to connect with people I already know.

建議: You explain two useful strategies and give an example, which makes your answer relevant and clear. Improve the phrasing “repeat it a few times and I remember it naturally” to show the result more smoothly, and make sure the example words are clear and accurately pronounced. You could also use “associate the name with a familiar word” for a more natural expression.

範例: I usually repeat someone's name a few times after meeting them, which helps it stick in my memory. If the name is unfamiliar, I try to associate it with a word or person I already know. For example, I might connect it with a word that sounds similar, so I can recall it more easily later.

建議: This is a clear and natural response with a direct feeling, a reason, and a practical reaction. The linking word “However” connects your ideas well. For a slightly more polished tone, replace “totally understand” with “completely understand” or “understand that it can be difficult.”

範例: I feel a little embarrassed when someone forgets my name, especially if we've met before. Still, I understand that names can be difficult to remember, so I just remind them politely and carry on with the conversation.

建議: Your answer gives a relevant strategy, but the second sentence is incomplete: “The way I can…” needs to be connected to the first sentence or rewritten as a full sentence. Also, “ask a mutual friend” is more natural than “as a mutual friend.” Explain briefly how checking the name helps you feel more comfortable.

範例: Yes, I often forget people's names. Before meeting them again, I sometimes check their name on social media or ask a mutual friend. That way, I can greet them by name and avoid an awkward moment.

× I often forget people's names, so before I see them again, I try to find out their names on social media or as a mutual friend.

✓ I often forget people's names, so before I see them again, I try to find out their names on social media or through a mutual friend.

As a mutual friend does not correctly describe how the speaker finds out the names. Use through a mutual friend to show that the mutual friend is the source of the information. For clearer parallel structure, you could also say by asking a mutual friend.

× The way I can use their names naturally and avoid feeling embarrassed.

✓ This way, I can use their names naturally and avoid feeling embarrassed.

The original is a sentence fragment. The way introduces a dependent phrase, but it does not form a complete sentence on its own. Use This way as an introductory phrase followed by the independent clause I can use their names naturally and avoid feeling embarrassed.
