Part 1
Examiner
Do you prefer typing or handwriting?
Candidate
Well, in fact, I prefer the handwriting more than typing because through the process of handwriting is not only input something but also a a way for me to settle down my mind and organize my thoughts within.
Examiner
Do you type on a desktop or laptop keyboard every day?
Candidate
I usually tap on the laptop keyboard every day because it's compact and convenient to carry. I often work in cafe or library, so having my laptop keyboard with me make it easier to start typing anywhere since, you know, it's really portable.
Examiner
When did you learn how to type on a keyboard?
Candidate
Well, I learned timing during my, uh, computer classes at high school. At first, I didn't know how to type properly on the keyboard during my computer classes and remember one final semester exam where we had to type 100 words in one minute. And after a lot of practice with tapping exercises, I managed to reach that target that I.
Examiner
How do you improve your typing?
Candidate
Well, the answer is persistent efforts and consistent practice. At first I really didn't know how to type properly, but I faced a huge challenge that I have to type in 100 words within one minute during the first examination. The only way to tag to manage that target is during practice.
Do you prefer typing or handwriting?
Score: 68.0Suggestion: 整体表达能传达意思,但存在语法错误、重复词("a a")、用词不自然("input something")和冗长句子。建议: 1) 简化句子结构,先给主题句,再补充具体原因(不超过5句)。 2) 注意冠词和介词用法,如说“I prefer handwriting to typing”。 3) 用更地道的表达替换不自然的词组,例如“input something”可改为“record information”或“note things down”。 4) 避免语填词和重复(如“a a”, “well”过多)。 练习方法:每次回答先写出一句清晰的主题句,再加1-2个具体原因并用连接词(because, so, therefore)。
Example: I prefer handwriting to typing because it helps me focus and organize my thoughts. For example, when I write notes by hand I remember ideas better and can quickly sketch diagrams to make connections. Therefore, handwriting is my preferred way to take notes.
Do you type on a desktop or laptop keyboard every day?
Score: 74.0Suggestion: 回答清楚且内容相关,但存在一些小错误和口语填充词("tap", "you know"),数一致问题("make"应为"makes")以及句子可更简洁自然。建议: 1) 用更自然的动词如“use”或“type on”。 2) 注意主谓一致("having my laptop makes it easier"或改为"it makes")。 3) 去掉冗余填充词,保持回答简短(最多五句)。 4) 加入连接词提高连贯性(because, so, therefore)。 练习方法:写出一句主题句(I usually use my laptop),再补充1-2个原因并检查语法。
Example: I usually type on my laptop because it is compact and easy to carry. Since I often work in cafés or the library, having a laptop lets me start working anywhere quickly. This portability makes it my preferred choice.

Score: 66.0Suggestion: 能回答问题并给出具体情景,但有严重发音或拼写错误("timing"应为"typing"),语句不完整且有重复,结尾未完。建议: 1) 校对易错词(typing vs timing)。 2) 组织答案为一至两句完整陈述,避免冗长重复。比如一句说明时间点,再用一句具体例子支持。 3) 完成句子,避免中断或未完成的结尾。 4) 使用连接词(for example, after)使叙述连贯。
Example: I learned to type at high school during computer classes. For example, we had a final exam requiring 100 words per minute, and after many practice drills I eventually met that target.
How do you improve your typing?
Score: 70.0Suggestion: 内容明确,表达出练习是方法,但存在用词错误("tag" 应为 "to" 或其他),时态和结构可更简洁自然,有重复信息。建议: 1) 直接给出方法并举例(e.g. timed drills, online typing tests)。 2) 检查词汇选择和语法("the only way to manage that target is practice")。 3) 使用连接词(first, then, after)把过程说清楚,控制在五句内。
Example: I improved my typing through persistent, focused practice. First, I did timed drills and online speed tests to increase my speed. Then I practiced touch-typing exercises every day until my accuracy and speed improved.
× Well, in fact, I prefer the handwriting more than typing because through the process of handwriting is not only input something but also a a way for me to settle down my mind and organize my thoughts within.
✓ Well, in fact, I prefer handwriting to typing because the process of handwriting is not only a way to input something but also a way for me to settle my mind and organize my thoughts.
问题类型:文章使用不当(Article errors)。原句中使用了定冠词“the handwriting”以及多余的“a a”,同时短语表达混乱。应使用不带冠词的不可数名词“handwriting”或用“the act of handwriting”,并将比较结构改为常见搭配“prefer A to B”。此外,“input something”用法不自然,改为“a way to input something”或直接省略,使句子更通顺。建议:去掉多余冠词,修正重复单词,使用固定搭配“prefer A to B”,并简化不自然的短语。
× I usually tap on the laptop keyboard every day because it's compact and convenient to carry.
✓ I usually type on my laptop keyboard every day because it's compact and convenient to carry.
问题类型:介词使用不当(Incorrect use of prepositions)。原句中用“tap on”不如常用动词“type”,并且缺少所有格“my laptop keyboard”更自然。建议:使用常见搭配“type on my laptop keyboard”。
× I often work in cafe or library, so having my laptop keyboard with me make it easier to start typing anywhere since, you know, it's really portable.
✓ I often work in a cafe or a library, so having my laptop keyboard with me makes it easier to start typing anywhere since, you know, it's really portable.
问题类型:单复数问题(Singular and plural issue)及主谓一致。原句缺少不定冠词“a”且主句主语“having my laptop keyboard”是单数概念,应使用动词单数第三人称形式“makes”。建议:在可数名词前加冠词,并确保主谓一致。
× Well, I learned timing during my, uh, computer classes at high school.
✓ Well, I learned typing during my computer classes at high school.
问题类型:过去时使用/词汇错误(Past tense issue)。这里“timing”显然是词汇选择错误,应为“typing”。动词时态(learned)本身正确,但需更换正确名词。建议:注意同音或相近词的正确拼写,使用“typing”。
× At first, I didn't know how to type properly on the keyboard during my computer classes and remember one final semester exam where we had to type 100 words in one minute.
✓ At first, I didn't know how to type properly on the keyboard during my computer classes, and I remember one final semester exam where we had to type 100 words in one minute.
问题类型:句子结构错误(Sentence structure errors)。原句缺少主语“I”与连接词后的动词形式,使“remember”成为不带主语的并列谓语。需要添加“I”或改为过去时“I remembered”。建议:并列句中每个分句要有明确主语和正确动词形式。
× And after a lot of practice with tapping exercises, I managed to reach that target that I.
✓ And after a lot of practice with typing exercises, I managed to reach that target.
问题类型:句子结构错误(Sentence structure errors)。原句结尾不完整,存在残缺“that I.”,且“tapping exercises”用词不当,应为“typing exercises”。建议:删除多余或残缺片段,使用完整句子并纠正词汇。
× Well, the answer is persistent efforts and consistent practice.
✓ Well, the answer is persistent effort and consistent practice.
问题类型:形容词或副词使用不当(Incorrect use of adjectives or adverbs)。原句中“persistent efforts”虽非完全错误,但在此语境中更自然用不可数名词“effort”表示持续的努力。建议:使用更自然的搭配“persistent effort”。
× At first I really didn't know how to type properly, but I faced a huge challenge that I have to type in 100 words within one minute during the first examination.
✓ At first I really didn't know how to type properly, but I faced a huge challenge: I had to type 100 words in one minute during the first examination.
问题类型:过去时问题(Past tense issue)。原句中时态混用,“faced”是过去时,但后半句“have to”应与过去时一致,改为“had to”。并优化表达“type in 100 words”应为“type 100 words”。建议:保持时态一致,使用正确动词短语。
× The only way to tag to manage that target is during practice.
✓ The only way to manage that target is through practice.
问题类型:句子结构错误(Sentence structure errors)。原句中出现错误单词“tag”且结构冗余“to tag to manage”,表达不清。应简化为“The only way to manage that target is through practice.” 建议:删除无意义词,使用固定搭配“through practice”。
