Did you like going to parks as a child?
分數: 12.0建議: Give a direct short topic sentence, then add 1–2 specific supporting details using linking words. Avoid one-word replies. For example, mention what you did and why you enjoyed it (activities, people, feelings).
範例: Yes, I loved going to parks as a child because they were a place to play and explore. For example, I used to climb trees and play tag with neighborhood friends, which made me feel happy and free.
Do you still like going to parks now?
分數: 16.0建議: Provide a clear topic sentence followed by concise supporting details and a linking word. Say how often you visit, what you do there now, and give a reason to show development from childhood to present.
範例: Yes, I still enjoy going to parks because they help me relax and exercise. For instance, I usually go for a jog twice a week and sometimes read on a bench, which helps me unwind after work.
Would you like to see more parks in your city?
分數: 14.0建議: Answer directly and then explain your opinion with specific reasons and one linking word. Mention benefits (environment, recreation, community) and perhaps a brief suggestion for improvement.
範例: Yes, I would like to see more parks in my city because they improve air quality and provide safe places for families. Moreover, more green spaces could encourage people to spend time outdoors and boost community activities.
Are there any parks you want to go to in the future?
分數: 10.0建議: Avoid short negative responses alone — give a short explanation with supporting details. If you have no specific park in mind, explain why and perhaps mention types of parks you might visit in future. Use a linking word to connect ideas.
範例: Not at the moment, because most nearby parks meet my needs; however, I might visit a botanical garden or a large national park in the future if I have time, since I enjoy seeing diverse plants and scenic views.
× Yup.
✓ Yes, I did.
The response 'Yup' is informal and lacks a complete sentence structure. The question 'Did you like going to parks as a child?' is past tense and expects a full answer in past tense. Use 'Yes, I did' to match tense and provide a complete clause. Suggestion: use polite full responses in test contexts, e.g. 'Yes, I did' or 'Yes, I enjoyed going to parks.'
× Yeah, of course.
✓ Yes, I still do.
The question 'Do you still like going to parks now?' uses present simple. 'Yeah, of course' is informal and does not explicitly use the present-tense verb to match the question. Correct form 'Yes, I still do' uses present simple and repeats the auxiliary 'do' to give a complete, grammatically clear answer. Suggestion: respond with 'Yes, I still do' or 'Yes, I enjoy them' in formal testing.
× Yeah.
✓ Yes, I would.
The question 'Would you like to see more parks in your city?' uses the modal 'would.' Replying 'Yeah' is informal and doesn't reflect the conditional/modal structure. Use 'Yes, I would' or 'Yes, I would like that' to mirror the modal verb and give a grammatically complete reply. Suggestion: match the modal in the question with the same auxiliary in your answer.
× Not really.
✓ Not really, I don't have any specific ones.
The question 'Are there any parks you want to go to in the future?' expects a present-tense preference about future intent. 'Not really' is informal and incomplete. A clearer response is 'Not really, I don't have any specific ones' which uses present simple to express current lack of specific future choices. Suggestion: expand brief answers to full sentences that fit the tense and clarity required in speaking tests.
