Part 1
Examiner
Did you do puzzles in your childhood?
Candidate
Yes, as always, I remember the time when I was 6, I always played probably with my family, my brother and my mom because puzzle can help me to improve my knowledge and sovereign programming skills.
Examiner
When do you do puzzles, during your trip or when you feel bored?
Candidate
Probably when I felt bored because it can help me to spend time, but at the same time I can train my focus, which is a good thing because as an architectural designer all I need is focus on the design. So it is a good way for me to change.
Examiner
Do you like doing word puzzles or number puzzles? Which is more difficult for you?
Candidate
I like doing number puzzles because word puzzles are more challenging for me. Number of puzzles requires a lot of observation, which is my, umm, merit I would say. But for more puzzles it is more difficult because it retains minds.
Examiner
Do you think it is good for old people to do puzzles?
Candidate
Yes, it's a good training for elderlies because puzzle can create, can help them train their concentration and prevent them to lose their focus and control of their mind. Sometimes they don't even remember their names, but.
Did you do puzzles in your childhood?
Score: 55.0Suggestion: 回答要更直接并保持简洁,避免重复和不准确的词语(如“sovereign programming”)。提供具体细节(比如常做的拼图类型或记忆中的一个场景),并用一到两句连接词丰富内容。保持回答不超过5句。
Example: Yes. I started doing jigsaw puzzles when I was about six, often sitting with my brother and mother. Doing them taught me patience and problem-solving, and we would spend rainy afternoons finishing big 500-piece puzzles together.
When do you do puzzles, during your trip or when you feel bored?
Score: 70.0Suggestion: 回答要更有逻辑,使用连接词(例如“because”或“so”)准确表达原因。避免模糊时态和冗词,具体现实场景(如工作间隙或旅行时)会更好。控制句子数,不超过5句。
Example: I usually do puzzles when I feel bored or need a short break. They help me relax and sharpen my concentration, which is useful for my work as an architectural designer, so I often solve one for 15–20 minutes between tasks.
Do you like doing word puzzles or number puzzles? Which is more difficult for you?
Score: 50.0Suggestion: 要更清晰地区分喜好与难度原因,避免语法错误和不连贯片段(比如“retains minds”)。用具体例子说明哪类题型更难或更易,以及为什么。使用更地道的表达和连接词。
Example: I prefer number puzzles because I find pattern recognition and logic come naturally to me. Word puzzles are harder because they require a larger vocabulary and quick recall of words, for example crossword clues often stump me.
Do you think it is good for old people to do puzzles?
Score: 60.0Suggestion: 回答要完整并避免断句和重复词(例如“can create, can help”)。用礼貌且具体的说明如何帮助老年人(比如延缓认知衰退、社交活动)。避免绝对化描述(如“忘记名字”),可用更谨慎的表述。
Example: Yes, I think puzzles are very beneficial for older people. They help maintain concentration and memory, and doing puzzles socially can also reduce loneliness and keep the mind active.
× ...puzzle can help me to improve my knowledge and sovereign programming skills.
✓ ...puzzles can help me improve my knowledge and programming skills.
原句中有多处问题:1) 名词复数与前文表达不一致,puzzle应为复数puzzles(符合第1类但根据规则只处理清单内类型,这里以动名词形式问题为主处理);2) 不需要不定式to做中间停顿,习惯用help sb do而非help sb to do。‘sovereign programming skills’ 语义不清且用词不当,删去或改为programming skills更自然。建议:将help后接动词原形,去掉无意义或错误形容词。
× When do you do puzzles, during your trip or when you feel bored?
✓ When do you do puzzles — during trips or when you feel bored?
原句中'during your trip'时态与一般现在时搭配不自然,应改为泛指复数'during trips'以匹配一般现在时的习惯用法。建议在表达习惯或经常性动作时使用复数或泛指形式。
× Probably when I felt bored because it can help me to spend time, but at the same time I can train my focus, which is a good thing because as an architectural designer all I need is focus on the design. So it is a good way for me to change.
✓ Probably when I feel bored because it can help me pass the time, and at the same time I can train my focus, which is good because as an architectural designer all I need is to focus on the design. So it is a good way for me to relax.
原句时态混用:问的是一般情况,应使用一般现在时(do/feel/can),而不是过去式felt。also: 'spend time'常用短语为'pass the time'更自然;'need is focus on'缺少不定式to或名词形式,改为'need is to focus'。'change'在此语境不清,应改为'relax'或'change of pace'。建议在描述习惯或常态时统一使用一般现在时,并检查固定搭配。
× I like doing number puzzles because word puzzles are more challenging for me.
✓ I like doing number puzzles because word puzzles are more challenging for me.
该句实际上复数形式已正确,无需修改。保留原句。说明:number puzzles与word puzzles均为复数,符合表达习惯。
× Number of puzzles requires a lot of observation, which is my, umm, merit I would say.
✓ Solving number puzzles requires a lot of observation, which is, I would say, one of my strengths.
原句结构不正确:'Number of puzzles'语义不明且缺少动名词;应使用'Solving number puzzles'或'The number of puzzles'取决于意思。'which is my, umm, merit'表达生硬,不自然,改为'one of my strengths'更地道。建议把主语换成动名词短语并使用合适的名词(strength)。
× But for more puzzles it is more difficult because it retains minds.
✓ But more complex puzzles are more difficult because they require sustained concentration.
原句结构与词汇错误:'for more puzzles'不明确,可能想说'more complex puzzles';'it retains minds'用词完全不当,意图应为'它们需要保持注意力',改为'require sustained concentration'。建议明确比较对象并使用合适动词短语表达保持注意力。
× Yes, it's a good training for elderlies because puzzle can create, can help them train their concentration and prevent them to lose their focus and control of their mind.
✓ Yes, it's good training for elderly people because puzzles can help them train their concentration and prevent them from losing their focus and control of their minds.
错误点:1) 'elderlies' 非标准,应使用 'elderly people'或'the elderly';2) 'puzzle'单数改为复数'puzzles'与泛指一致;3) 'prevent them to lose'搭配错误,正确结构为'prevent them from losing'(prevent + sb + from + -ing);4) 'control of their mind'应为'control of their minds'或'self-control'。建议注意固定搭配prevent from doing及名词复数形式。
× Sometimes they don't even remember their names, but.
✓ Sometimes they don't even remember their names.
原句以'but'结尾,导致句子残缺无完整谓语构成完整句。应删除多余的'but'或补全后半句。建议写完整句子,避免口语中未完成的连接词。
× ...puzzle can help me to improve my knowledge and sovereign programming skills.
✓ ...puzzles can help me improve my knowledge and programming skills.
原句中主语'single puzzle'与泛指活动不一致,且动词形式与主语需一致。将puzzle改为puzzles与动词can help一致(can不随主语变化),同时去掉多余词汇。建议核对主语复数形式和动词一致性。
