Part 1
Examiner
Do you prefer typing or handwriting?
Candidate
To be honest, I prefer typing because I think it's more effective and can seal my hand. In addition, I'm not good at handwriting. I can't write something neat and beautiful, so typing is more.
Examiner
Do you type on a desktop or laptop keyboard every day?
Candidate
I usually type on laptop because it can be easily moved to another place where desktop is usually fixed on a certain place and can't be moving.
Examiner
When did you learn how to type on a keyboard?
Candidate
I learned it in my primary school because we had a specific class for typing. We usually use computer games to practice typing. It's so interesting and meaningful.
Examiner
How do you improve your typing?
Candidate
Actually, I didn't try to improve my typing through any specific training. I just use typing every day and improve my typing over time.
Do you prefer typing or handwriting?
Score: 68.0Suggestion: 回答思路明确,但存在表达不准确与语法问题,且内容重复。建议:1) 修改不准确短语(如“can seal my hand”应为“saves my hand/less tiring”或“is easier on my hands”);2) 使用一到两句支持性细节并用连接词衔接;3) 避免重复表述,将原因扩展为效率、速度或可读性等具体方面。示例句式:开门见山的主题句 + because 引出两个具体原因(用连接词连接)。
Example: I prefer typing rather than handwriting because it's faster and more legible. Moreover, typing is easier on my hands, so I can work for longer without getting tired.
Do you type on a desktop or laptop keyboard every day?
Score: 75.0Suggestion: 回答清晰且逻辑合理,但句子有冗长和语法问题。建议:1) 使用更自然的比较表达(e.g. “because it's portable, unlike a desktop”);2) 用连接词如 “because” 和 “whereas” 来保持句子流畅;3) 保持句子简洁,控制在3–4句内。
Example: I usually type on a laptop because it's portable and easy to move around. Whereas desktops are bulky and stay in one place, so they aren't convenient for working in different rooms.
When did you learn how to type on a keyboard?
Score: 82.0Suggestion: 回答具体且包含细节,但语气与用词可更自然。建议:1) 将时间点和原因合并成一到两句,避免句子碎片;2) 用更自然的形容词替换“meaningful”(如“useful”或“helpful”);3) 用连接词如 “and” 或 “so” 使衔接更顺畅。
Example: I learned to type in primary school because we had a dedicated typing class, and we practised through educational computer games. It was fun and very useful for developing my computer skills.
How do you improve your typing?
Score: 70.0Suggestion: 回答直接但略显平淡且重复。建议:1) 给出具体方法或计划(即使没有正式训练,也可说明日常练习的方式);2) 使用连接词如 “however” 或 “instead” 来丰富句子结构;3) 提供一个改进目标或未来计划以显示主动性。
Example: I haven't had formal training; instead, I improve by typing daily—especially by writing emails and notes. Recently I've also started using online typing exercises for 10–15 minutes a day to increase my speed and accuracy.
× To be honest, I prefer typing because I think it's more effective and can seal my hand.
✓ To be honest, I prefer typing because I think it's more effective and easier on my hands.
句子中原文使用了“can seal my hand”,这是不合适的词语搭配且语义不明。应使用形容词短语描述“对手更好/更省力”,例如“easier on my hands”。此外“more effective”是正确的形容词比较用法。建议用更自然的短语表达生理感受。
× In addition, I'm not good at handwriting.
✓ In addition, I'm not good at handwriting.
此句语法正确,保持原句。只是与上下文连贯,表达清晰,无需更改。
× I can't write something neat and beautiful, so typing is more.
✓ I can't write neatly and beautifully, so I prefer typing.
原句中“write something neat and beautiful”在语法上可理解,但副词更符合写字的方式表达,且结尾“so typing is more”不完整。用副词短语“neatly and beautifully”并补全主语和谓语“so I prefer typing”使句子完整。建议用副词修饰动词并保持句子完整。
× I usually type on laptop because it can be easily moved to another place where desktop is usually fixed on a certain place and can't be moving.
✓ I usually type on a laptop because it can be easily moved to another place, while a desktop is usually fixed in one place and cannot be moved.
原句缺少不定冠词“a”在“on laptop”前,且后半句中“where desktop is usually fixed on a certain place”结构冗长且不自然,应使用“a desktop”并改为“fixed in one place”。另外“can't be moving”时态和结构错误,应为“cannot be moved”或“cannot move”。建议注意冠词使用和被动/静态表达。
× I usually type on laptop because it can be easily moved to another place where desktop is usually fixed on a certain place and can't be moving.
✓ I usually type on a laptop because it can be easily moved to another place, while a desktop is usually fixed in one place and cannot be moved.
句子中关于状态的描述应使用一般现在时。原文末尾“can't be moving”混用了进行时,不符合事实描述。应改为一般现在时或被动“cannot be moved”。建议用一般现在时陈述习惯或事实。
× I learned it in my primary school because we had a specific class for typing.
✓ I learned it in primary school because we had a specific class for typing.
原句时态正确(过去时),但冠词使用上“in my primary school”可简化为“in primary school”。时态无需更改,但保持过去时态谈过去经历是正确的。建议在口语中常用简洁表达。
× We usually use computer games to practice typing.
✓ We usually used computer games to practice typing.
因为谈论过去在小学的经历,动词时态应与前句一致使用过去时。原句用现在时“use”与前句“I learned”不一致。建议在叙述过去经历时将所有相关动词改为过去时。
× It's so interesting and meaningful.
✓ It was so interesting and meaningful.
同样这是在描述过去的课堂体验,应使用过去时“was”。形容词“interesting and meaningful”本身正确。建议时态与上下文一致。
× Actually, I didn't try to improve my typing through any specific training.
✓ Actually, I didn't try to improve my typing through any specific training.
句子语法上可接受,但更自然的说法是“I haven't tried (any) specific training”或“I didn't try any specific training to improve my typing”。原句使用简单过去时也可理解,不必修改。此处列出以说明可选更自然用法。
× I just use typing every day and improve my typing over time.
✓ I just use typing every day and improve my typing over time.
若学生想表达现在的习惯,使用一般现在时是可以的,但“use typing”不太自然,应改为“I just type every day and have improved my typing over time.”不过根据规则只修改列出问题类型内的错误,此句主要是风格建议而非明确语法错误。建议使用“type”代替“use typing”,且将“have improved”用于强调持续的进步。
