Part 1
Examiner
Do you make a list when you shop?
Candidate
Yes I do. The shopping list is very useful for me because I just need to list different items which is which are necessary to control myself, avoid to buy something which I do not need. I also I can control the price and the cost.
Examiner
Do you make a list for your work? Does it work?
Candidate
It's developed because it can help me to control the project where I try to compare different items in the same time and I would like to list out the lowest part of the product to find it in the shopping mall. It can help me to control the cost efficiency.
Examiner
Why don't some people like making lists?
Candidate
I think some people dislike making this because they prefer to shove irrationally. They buy things they want in the moment rather than plan ahead. For example, a friend told me she avoided this because shopping without a plan feels more enjoyable and freedom and she does not worry about the budget.
Examiner
Do you prefer to make a list on paper or your phone?
Candidate
I prefer to make a list on my phone which is very handy because I can watch it at anytime, anywhere. Uh. Also, I believe that using the paper is the UN environmental friendly behaviour. I want to reduce the paper usage.
Do you make a list when you shop?
Score: 62.0Suggestion: 回答要更简洁并注意语法与衔接。避免重复(如“I also I”),将观点先总述然后用一两句具体细节支持,并使用连接词(e.g. so, therefore, which helps)使句子更连贯。注意动词形式和冠词(e.g. “the shopping list” 或 “a shopping list”)的一致性。
Example: Yes, I usually make a shopping list because it helps me avoid buying unnecessary items. For example, I check prices and only note the essentials, so I can stick to my budget.
Do you make a list for your work? Does it work?
Score: 55.0Suggestion: 答案含糊且语法混乱,需先直接回答(Yes/No + 简短理由),然后给出一两个具体例子说明如何帮助工作。使用更准确的词汇(例如 “track tasks”, “compare options”, “reduce costs”, “improve cost-efficiency”),并用连接词衔接观点。
Example: Yes, I do. At work I use lists to track tasks and compare suppliers, which helps me find the cheapest options and improve cost-efficiency. For instance, I list product features and prices side by side to choose the best supplier.
Why don't some people like making lists?
Score: 68.0Suggestion: 总体思路可以,但用词不当(如 “shove irrationally”)和语法需改进。先用一句话概括原因,再用具体例子支持。使用恰当表达如 “shop impulsively” 或 “prefer spontaneity” 并注意单复数和时态一致。
Example: Some people dislike making lists because they prefer to shop impulsively and enjoy the spontaneity. For example, a friend told me that unplanned shopping feels more fun and gives her a sense of freedom, even if it risks overspending.
Do you prefer to make a list on paper or your phone?
Score: 60.0Suggestion: 回答要更自然并注意表达准确性。将“handy”与具体好处连接,避免犹豫词(e.g. “Uh”)。“UN environmental friendly behaviour” 不正确,应说 “not environmentally friendly” 或 “harmful to the environment”。最后一句给出简短理由并可提供对比。
Example: I prefer making lists on my phone because it's convenient and I can check it anytime. Also, using digital lists is more environmentally friendly than wasting paper, so I try to reduce paper use.
× The shopping list is very useful for me because I just need to list different items which is which are necessary to control myself, avoid to buy something which I do not need.
✓ The shopping list is very useful for me because I just need to list different items which are necessary to help me control myself and avoid buying things I do not need.
句中出现多处问题:1) “which is which are” 是多余且错误的重复,应改为“which are necessary”;2) 短语“to control myself” 更自然表达为“to help me control myself”;3) “avoid to buy something” 语法错误,动词avoid后应接动名词(-ing),改为“avoid buying things”;4) “something I do not need” 更自然为复数“things I do not need”。总体应使用现在时和动名词结构来表达习惯性行为。
× I also I can control the price and the cost.
✓ I can also control the price and the cost.
句子中多出一个“I”,造成冗余。把副词“also”放在助动词或主语之后更符合英语语序,改为“I can also control...”。此外“price and the cost”含义重复,建议合并为“price and cost”或只用其中一个。
× It's developed because it can help me to control the project where I try to compare different items in the same time and I would like to list out the lowest part of the product to find it in the shopping mall.
✓ It's useful because it can help me control the project, where I try to compare different items at the same time, and I would like to list the cheapest version of a product so I can find it in the shopping mall.
原句中有多处问题:1) “It's developed” 用词不当,改为表示功能的“It's useful”;2) “in the same time” 应为固定短语“at the same time”;3) “list out the lowest part of the product” 意思不清且用词错误,应为“list the cheapest version of a product” 表示“列出最便宜的款式/型号”;4) 去掉不必要的“to”不定式中的冗余。句中冠词和词序也做了调整以符合英语表达习惯。
× It can help me to control the cost efficiency.
✓ It can help me control cost efficiency.
动词短语中不需要不定式“to”,直接用不带to的动词“help me control”。此外“the cost efficiency” 一般以不可数名词“cost efficiency”或“cost-effectiveness”表示,不需要定冠词“the”。
× I think some people dislike making this because they prefer to shove irrationally.
✓ I think some people dislike making lists because they prefer to shop irrationally.
原句“shove irrationally” 用词错误,应该是“shop irrationally”(冲动/不理性地购物)。另外“making this” 指代不明确,应改为“making lists”。
× They buy things they want in the moment rather than plan ahead.
✓ They buy things they want in the moment rather than planning ahead.
平行结构错误:在对比中两部分应保持形式一致,前半句为动词短语“buy things”,后半句应使用动名词或不定式使结构平行,常见表达为“rather than planning ahead”。
× For example, a friend told me she avoided this because shopping without a plan feels more enjoyable and freedom and she does not worry about the budget.
✓ For example, a friend told me she avoided it because shopping without a plan feels more enjoyable and gives a sense of freedom, and she does not worry about the budget.
原句中“avoided this” 指代不自然,改为“avoided it”;“more enjoyable and freedom” 混用了形容词和名词,应改为“more enjoyable and gives a sense of freedom” 或“more enjoyable and free” 以保持词类一致;句子中加入逗号并保持时态一致使其更清晰。
× I prefer to make a list on my phone which is very handy because I can watch it at anytime, anywhere.
✓ I prefer to make a list on my phone, which is very handy because I can check it anytime, anywhere.
1) “watch it” 用词不当,应为“check it” 或“look at it”;2) “at anytime” 正确写法为“anytime” 或“at any time”,建议使用“anytime”;3) 在“phone”和定语从句之间加逗号更符合语法。
× Also, I believe that using the paper is the UN environmental friendly behaviour.
✓ Also, I believe that using paper is not environmentally friendly behavior.
句中错误包括:1) “the paper” 不需定冠词,应为“paper”;2) “the UN environmental friendly behaviour” 语序和词形错误,正确表达为“not environmentally friendly behavior” 或“an environmentally unfriendly behavior”;3) “environmentally” 作为副词修饰“friendly”。
× I want to reduce the paper usage.
✓ I want to reduce paper usage.
“the paper usage” 中的定冠词“the”通常不必要,且可直接使用不可数名词短语“paper usage” 或更自然的“paper use”。
