Part 1

What is your favourite food?

Score: 70.0

Suggestion: 总体表达能让考官明白你的意思,但存在重复、犹豫词与语法小错误。建议:1) 开头直接给出主题句(例如:My favourite food is ...),避免“Let me see/it's quite”类多余犹豫;2) 控制在最多3-4个短句内,避免冗长;3) 使用更具体的描述并用连接词衔接(e.g. However, I especially like ... because ...)。

Example: My favourite food is noodles, especially spicy noodles. I also enjoy cakes for dessert because they’re sweet and comforting, but if I had to choose one it would be noodles due to their variety and bold flavours.

What kind of food did you like when you were young?

Score: 68.0

Suggestion: 回答内容清晰但有语法与重复问题(e.g. I I, as I grown on)。建议:1) 用过去时描述童年偏好(I loved);2) 避免重复填充词(Umm, etc.),保持句子流畅;3) 用连接词表达变化原因(e.g. but now/ however/ as I grew up)并可补充原因使回答更具体。

Example: When I was young, I loved sweet foods like candy and cakes. However, as I grew up I started to prefer spicier dishes because I developed a taste for stronger flavours.

Has your favourite food changed since you were a child?

Score: 70.0

Suggestion: 回答重复之前观点且有时态与语法错误(I prefer → I preferred; as I grow up → as I grew up)。建议:1) 清楚使用对比时态(past vs present);2) 简洁重申变化并给出原因或例子;3) 避免不必要的重复信息(不要重复之前完全相同的句子)。

Example: Yes, it has changed. I preferred sweet foods like candy and cakes when I was a child, but as I grew up I started to enjoy hot and spicy dishes more, partly because I began to appreciate stronger flavours.

Grammar

Sentence structure errors

× Let me see, it's quite It's a difficult question to answer because I do love a variety of foods, for example, noodles, cakes.

Let me see. It's a difficult question to answer because I do love a variety of foods; for example, noodles and cakes.

句子存在结构混乱和标点使用不当:原句有重复的“It's quite It's”,并且用逗号连接并列项不当。应先删除重复部分,使用句号或分号分隔独立分句,并在并列名词之间使用“and”。建议注意避免口语中的重复,正确使用标点和并列连接词。

Present tense issue

× Umm, when I was younger I I loved sweet food especially, but as I grown on I prefer spicy food instead of sweet food.

Umm, when I was younger I loved sweet food especially, but as I grew older I prefer spicy food instead of sweet food.

包含多种错误:有重复词“I I”;动词时态错误“grown on”不正确,应该用过去式或过去分词的正确形式。这里谈过去与现在的对比,应使用过去式“grew”或短语“grew older”。将过去事件与现在偏好对比时,主句用现在时“prefer”是正确的。建议学习动词不规则变化(grow — grew — grown),并避免口头重复。

Verb + -ing form

× Yes, of course. Umm. For example, in summer I prefer cold cold food, umm but in winter I prefer hot and spicy foods, such as a bowl of spicy noodles.

Yes, of course. For example, in summer I prefer cold food, but in winter I prefer hot and spicy food, such as a bowl of spicy noodles.

问题主要是重复“cold cold”和可数/不可数名词一致性。“foods”在此处通常用不可数“food”或用具体复数表示多种食物,但句中举例用不可数更自然。并删除多余的填充词。建议说话时避免重复词,名词用法上根据语境选择不可数或可数复数。

Present tense issue

× Umm, well that's true because umm, when I was a child I prefer uh, sweet food like candy or cakes, but as I grow up I prefer hot and spicy dishes as I said before.

Umm, well that's true because, when I was a child, I preferred sweet food like candy or cakes, but as I grew up I preferred hot and spicy dishes, as I said before.

时态混用:谈论过去的偏好应使用过去时“preferred”,而不是现在时“prefer”;同样“as I grow up”应改为过去式“as I grew up”或用现在完成对比结构。若要表达从过去到现在的变化,可写“when I was a child I preferred..., but now I prefer...”。建议理清时间线,过去事件用过去时,现在情况用现在时。
