考官答案
Definitely, cooking today is quite different from the past. One major change is our access to international foods. We can easily buy ingredients from around the world, broadening our culinary horizons. Also, cooking has turned into a significant industry. There are endless cooking shows, cookbooks, and celebrity chefs, which shows just how much cooking has evolved and expanded as a cultural phenomenon.
當然,今天的烹飪與過去大不相同。一個主要的改變是我們可以輕鬆購買來自世界各地的食材,拓寬了我們的烹飪視野。此外,烹飪已成為一個重要的產業。無盡的烹飪節目、食譜和名廚表明烹飪作為文化現象已經演變和擴展。
Absolutely, there are marked differences in cooking today compared to the past. Now, we have the luxury of accessing a plethora of global ingredients, transforming the way we cook and eat. Moreover, cooking has become a vast business, with televised cookery shows running around the clock and celebrity chefs becoming household names. This evolution reflects a significant shift in how cooking is perceived and practiced in modern society.
絕對,與過去相比,今天的烹飪有明顯的差異。現在,我們可以豐富地使用各種全球食材,改變了我們烹飪和進食的方式。此外,烹飪已成為一個龐大的商業領域,電視烹飪節目24小時不停播放,名廚們也成為家喻戶曉的名字。這種演變反映出烹飪在現代社會中的感知和實踐方式發生了重大變革。
語法分析
1. 現在分詞片語作狀語:使用現在分詞片語作狀語,增強了句子的描述力和複雜性。 2. 現在完成時:使用了現在完成時,表達了時間上的變化和發展,顯示了對複雜時態的正確使用。 3. 並列結構:使用了並列結構來列舉現代烹飪的特點,增加了句子的信息量和複雜性。 4. 形容詞前置定語:中的“significant”作為形容詞前置定語,強調了變化的重要性,提升了句子的表達效果。

No
考官答案
I believe our eating habits have changed a lot from the past. Traditional foods, like those my grandparents ate, seem more costly now. Fast food is cheaper than having a hotpot at home or in a restaurant. Also, food is more processed today; we often buy ready-made sauces instead of making them ourselves. This means many of us can't make sauces from scratch.
我相信我們的飲食習慣從過去已經改變了很多。傳統食物,像我祖父母吃的那些,現在似乎更昂貴。快餐比在家裡或餐廳裡吃火鍋便宜。此外,現今食物更為加工;我們常常買現成的醬料而非自己製作。這就意味著很多人無法自己做醬料。
I think what we eat today is completely different from the past. It seems to me that traditional food that my grandparents would have eaten is more expensive to buy today. It's cheaper to go to a fast food restaurant and eat there than it is to have a hotpot at home or in a restaurant. Food is also more processed today, so instead of having to make a sauce for vegetables, we can buy one ready-made from the supermarket. This means that most of us couldn't actually make a sauce from scratch.
我認為我們今天所吃的食物與過去完全不同。我覺得我祖父母會吃的傳統食物現在更貴。去快餐店吃飯比在家裡或餐廳吃火鍋便宜。今天的食物也更加加工,所以我們可以買現成的醬汁,而不用自己做。這意味著大多數人其實無法從頭製作醬汁。

與過去完全不同 對我來說好像 現在買起來更貴 不必準備醬汁
