Part 1
Examiner
Do you like buying shoes? How often?
Candidate
I'm not a fan of buying shoes as I'm not interested in different brands, so I would rather choose to buy shoes when I've discovered that my shoes are shabby and not suitable to wear.
Examiner
Have you ever bought shoes online?
Candidate
I've never bought shoes online because I'm concerned about their quality and whether the materials are comfortable for me, so I would rather choose to try them on so that I can experience them.
Examiner
How much money do you usually spend on shoes?
Candidate
I often buy expensive brands to ensure their quality, so I would spend about 300 to $500.
Examiner
Which do you prefer, fashionable shoes or comfortable shoes?
Candidate
I prefer comfortable shoes because I wear these in sport classes or when I go to school, which is a very long distance. So comfortable sport shoes is the optimal choice.
Do you like buying shoes? How often?
Score: 78.0Suggestion: 主动在开头直接回答问题,然后把原因和具体例子简短连贯地补充进去。避免重复表述(例如同时说“不感兴趣不同品牌”和“更愿意在鞋子破旧时才买”有些冗余)。可以用连接词如“so”或“because”来提高连贯性,并控制在最多五句内。
Example: Not really — I only buy shoes when my old ones become worn out because I’m not interested in chasing brands. For example, I usually replace trainers once the soles get thin or the fabric tears, which happens every one or two years. This way I avoid unnecessary spending and only buy what I need.
Have you ever bought shoes online?
Score: 85.0Suggestion: 开头直接回答并给出明确理由,然后补充一到两个具体细节或例子说明担忧(如尺码不合或无法试穿)。使用连接词如“because”或“so”保持流畅,语句不宜过长。
Example: No, I haven’t bought shoes online because I’m worried about fit and material — it’s hard to judge comfort from photos. For instance, I once ordered a pair of trainers that looked fine but felt too narrow, so now I prefer trying shoes on in a store.
How much money do you usually spend on shoes?
Score: 72.0Suggestion: 回答应更自然并注意货币表达一致(例如 “$300 to $500” 或 “300 to 500 dollars”)。另外应给出简短原因并可提供频率或情境来支持数字,例如购买运动鞋或皮鞋的不同预算。避免含糊和一刀切的表述。
Example: I usually spend between $300 and $500 on a good pair of shoes because I believe higher-priced brands last longer. For everyday trainers I might spend around $100–$150, but for specialized running shoes or formal leather shoes I’m willing to pay more.
Which do you prefer, fashionable shoes or comfortable shoes?
Score: 88.0Suggestion: 开头要直接、简短地给出偏好,再用一两句具体原因或例子支持。注意语法与数的一致性(例如“comfortable sport shoes are the optimal choice”)。使用连接词如“because”或“so”来保持逻辑清晰。
Example: I prefer comfortable shoes because I walk long distances and attend sports classes regularly. For example, I usually choose cushioned trainers with good arch support so my feet don’t hurt after a long day at school.

✓ I prefer comfortable shoes because I wear them in sports classes or when I go to school, which is a very long distance.
问题类型:动词或名词形式/搭配错误(与列表第8项相关)。这里的错误主要是代词和名词搭配:用 these 指代不恰当,应使用 them 来指代复数鞋子;sport classes 更常见的说法是 sports classes(复数形式表示运动类课程)。建议:用正确的代词指代已提到的名词,并使用常见固定搭配“sports classes”。
× So comfortable sport shoes is the optimal choice.
✓ So comfortable sport shoes are the optimal choice.
问题类型:单复数一致性错误(列表第1项)。主语是复数名词“comfortable sport shoes”,谓语动词应使用复数形式“are”而不是单数“is”。建议:注意主语是单数还是复数,动词需与主语保持一致。
× I often buy expensive brands to ensure their quality, so I would spend about 300 to $500.
✓ I often buy expensive brands to ensure their quality, so I would spend about $300 to $500.
问题类型:数词与货币表达错误(归入列表中与冠词/表达相关的条目,如第22项文章错误或第26项句子结构错误)。原句中“300 to $500”混用导致表达不规范。建议:在表示货币区间时,两端都写明货币符号,或只写数字并在前面标注货币单位,例如“$300 to $500”或“300 to 500 dollars”。
