Part 1
考官
Did you have any opportunities to take part in new activities as a child?
考生
Yeah, I had opportunities. I remember when I was around 10 years old, I took part in a local painting competition that my teacher recommended me for just because I was good at painting. I remember I won an award and I have a memory of feeling really happy back then.
考官
Should people try as many different things as they can?
考生
Yeah, I think people should try as many different experiences as possible because different things can broaden your horizons. For example, traveling or taking on new jobs. They not only teach you new practical skills but also expand your life experiences.

分數: 84.0建議: 回答自然且内容相关,但可以更简洁并增加连接词与具体细节以显得更有条理。建议:1) 开头用一两句直接回答(肯定或否定);2) 用连接词(for example, because, which)把事件和感受衔接起来;3) 加入一两处具体细节(如比赛名称或奖项类别)以增强内容丰富性;4) 把句子控制在不超过5句并避免重复表达“记得/有记忆”。
範例: Yes, I did. For example, when I was about ten I entered a local painting competition that my teacher recommended because I was good at art. I won first prize in the junior category, which made me feel very proud and encouraged me to keep painting.
Should people try as many different things as they can?
分數: 88.0建議: 观点明确且逻辑清楚,但可以用更多连接词和更具体的例子来支持观点,同时避免笼统重复。建议:1) 先用一短句直接回答问题;2) 用连接词(for instance, moreover, because)连接理由与例子;3) 提供具体后果或个人经历来强化论点;4) 保持句子数目在5句内。
範例: Yes, I believe so. Trying different things broadens your horizons because it exposes you to new skills and perspectives. For instance, traveling taught me how to adapt to unfamiliar situations, and taking on a part-time job helped me develop time management and communication skills.
× I remember I won an award and I have a memory of feeling really happy back then.
✓ I remember that I won an award and felt really happy back then.
句子中时态应保持一致。前半句用过去时“won”,后半句用现在完成时“have a memory of feeling”会造成时态混乱且不自然。将后半部分改为简单过去时“felt”可以与“won”保持一致,表达回忆中当时的感受更恰当。建议在叙述过去事件时尽量用过去时态统一描述。
× I took part in a local painting competition that my teacher recommended me for just because I was good at painting.
✓ I took part in a local painting competition that my teacher recommended me for because I was good at painting.
句中“just because”冗余且位置不当,另外“recommended me for”后的“just”不影响语法但可去掉以使句子更自然。更重要的是避免在限定性从句中加入多余的副词。将“just because”改为“because”更简洁自然。
× Yeah, I had opportunities.
✓ Yes, I had some opportunities.
原句“Yeah”为口语,正式回答建议用“Yes”。另外“opportunities”前最好加限定词,如“some”,使表达更完整。此处归为代词/冠词使用不够明确的问题,改为“Yes, I had some opportunities.” 更符合书面或考试回答的规范。
× For example, traveling or taking on new jobs.
✓ For example, traveling or taking on new kinds of jobs.
原句为片段,缺少与前句的平行结构衔接。可补全为“for example”后列举更具体项,并用“new kinds of jobs”使表达更完整。建议在列举时保持平行结构并确保项之间一致。
