Conversation

Part 1

Examiner

Do you have a friend you have known for a long time?

Candidate

Yeah, I have a friend from middle school. We even attended the same high school after the graduation. We each went to different universities in different province. After the graduation of the university. We still keep in touch because she is one of the kindest and supportive friends I have ever known. She always supports me when I have problems.

Examiner

What do you usually do with your friends?

Candidate

Uh, well, I have few friends in the same faculty as me. Uh, we all are in the same class, so we often work on the same projects together. Uh, and if we got stress from school work or during examination period, we choose to go out or go to bar which is near to the school district. I glad that I.

Examiner

Where do you often meet each other?

Candidate

Well, it's apparent. So we all in the same class. We meet up in the classroom and one of my friend is in the same dormitory as me. So we spend most of the times together and sometimes, uh, we choose to sit together, uh, because umm, the vibe between us really matches.

Examiner

Do you often go out with your friends?

Candidate

Yes, actually we have a fixed schedule for going out on Wednesday evening we go out for a nice hot pot and on Saturday and Sundays, uh, we would usually go for one of the biggest shopping mall in the city and it is really have fun to have them around.

Examiner

How important are friends to you?

Candidate

Well-being able to have stable income, healthy body and mind, family, grades and my friends are the most important things for me in my life. So having friends is, uh, really essential for me. They are the colors of my world. They make me.

Examiner

Do you prefer to spend time with one friend or with a group of friends?

Candidate

Well, I prefer to spend my time with a group of friends because I find myself to be in trouble with a friend if I spend too much time with them. I don't know if there is any psychological explanation towards it, but still, I think I'm safe with a group of friends instead of 1.

Examiner

Would you invite friends to your home?

Candidate

Well, this is a tricky question. I stay in a dormitory or with five different people, so it is not easy for me to invite my male friends. But most of my girlfriends have been invited to my dormitory to spend time together. We were watching soap operas and gossip.

Examiner

Is there a difference between where you meet friends now and where you used to meet them in the past?

Candidate

Well, one of the clear difference is that before I went to university, I used to make most of my friends in my classroom because I spent a lot of time with the same group of people. Nowadays, I have more opportunities to meet people from different faculties and even outside of the university campus.

Examiner

Why are some places suitable for meeting while others are not?

Candidate

Well for me, privacy level, convenience and comfortability are most of the three important factors when I choose a place to meet up people. So I would usually go for uh, the pizza corner or the bar next to our school campus so I can have a casual talk uh with my friends while I'm relaxing.

Grammar

Past tense issue

× We even attended the same high school after the graduation.

We even attended the same high school after graduation.

句子中不需要使用定冠词 "the" 与不可數名詞 "graduation" 搭配(此處強調事件發生的時間點),因此去掉 "the" 更自然。建議:在表示在畢業後、畢業那年等時間短語時可直接用 "after graduation"。

Singular and plural issue

× We each went to different universities in different province.

We each went to different universities in different provinces.

原句省份(province)應為複數,因為談論的是多個人分別去了不同的省份。建議:當主語為複數且指多個不同的地點時,地點名詞用複數形式(provinces)。

Sentence structure errors

× After the graduation of the university.

After graduating from university, ... (或) After graduation, ...

這個片段是一個不完整的句子(沒有主語和謂語),應改為完整從句或短語,例如使用現在分詞或省略定冠詞的名詞短語來引導時間狀語。建議:把片段接入上一句或改為完整句子。

Article errors

× We still keep in touch because she is one of the kindest and supportive friends I have ever known.

We still keep in touch because she is one of the kindest and most supportive friends I have ever known.

當使用並列形容詞且其中一個為多音節(supportive)時,通常在第二個形容詞前使用 "most" 表示最高級搭配 "one of the ..." 結構;此外,形容詞間需要並列連接以使語義完整。建議:使用 "one of the kindest and most supportive"。

Present tense issue

× She always supports me when I have problems.

She always supports me when I have problems.

此句語法正確,保留原句。原因:描述習慣性或經常發生的情況,現在時、第三人稱單數動詞加 -s 是正確的。

Incorrect use of quantifiers

× Uh, well, I have few friends in the same faculty as me.

Uh, well, I have a few friends in the same faculty as me.

原句使用 "few"(幾乎沒有)表達負面含義,若要表達有幾個朋友應用 "a few"。建議:用 "a few" 表示肯定的“有一些”。

Incorrect use of pronouns

× Uh, we all are in the same class, so we often work on the same projects together.

Uh, we are all in the same class, so we often work on the same projects together.

we all 的位置更自然應在 be 動詞之後(we are all),原句語序不太符合英語常規。建議:把副詞短語放在 be 動詞之後或句中合適位置。

Past tense issue

× Uh, and if we got stress from school work or during examination period, we choose to go out or go to bar which is near to the school district.

Uh, and if we get stressed from schoolwork or during examination periods, we choose to go out or go to a bar near the school district.

多處錯誤:1) 條件句情況描述慣常行為應用現在時(get 而非 got);2) "stress" 作動詞用被動或形容詞形式更自然(get stressed);3) "school work" 應合成詞 "schoolwork";4) "examination period" 應為複數或加冠詞;5) "go to bar" 需要冠詞並且 "near to" 應為 "near"。建議:使用現在時描述習慣性情況,注意冠詞和固定搭配。

Sentence structure errors

× I glad that I.

I'm glad about that.

原句缺少謂語(be 動詞)且結尾不完整。正確應使用縮寫或完整形式(I am glad (that ... ))並補全賓語或改為一般回應。建議:使用完整的句子,例如 "I'm glad about that." 或補充原因。

Incorrect use of pronouns

× Well, it's apparent. So we all in the same class.

Well, it's apparent. So we are all in the same class.

缺少 be 動詞(are)。當使用主語 we 時需有謂語。建議:在 we 和 all 之間或之後加上 be 動詞。

Singular and plural issue

× We meet up in the classroom and one of my friend is in the same dormitory as me.

We meet up in the classroom and one of my friends is in the same dormitory as me.

"one of my" 後面應接複數名詞(friends)。建議:把 friend 改為 friends。

Incorrect adverb placement

× So we spend most of the times together and sometimes, uh, we choose to sit together, uh, because umm, the vibe between us really matches.

So we spend most of the time together and sometimes we choose to sit together because the vibe between us really matches.

1) "most of the times" 應為不可數短語 "most of the time";2) 多餘的語氣詞可刪;3) "matches" 用法可接受。建議:簡化句子並使用固定表達 "most of the time"。

Future tense issue

× Yes, actually we have a fixed schedule for going out on Wednesday evening we go out for a nice hot pot and on Saturday and Sundays, uh, we would usually go for one of the biggest shopping mall in the city and it is really have fun to have them around.

Yes, actually we have a fixed schedule for going out. On Wednesday evenings we go out for a nice hot pot, and on Saturdays and Sundays we usually go to one of the biggest shopping malls in the city. It's really fun to have them around.

多處問題:1) 需分句並加標點;2) 時間表達應使用複數(Wednesday evenings, Saturdays and Sundays);3) "go for one of the biggest shopping mall" 應為 "go to one of the biggest shopping malls"(介詞與單複數);4) "it is really have fun" 語法錯誤,應為 "it's really fun"。建議:使用複數時間短語、正確介詞和簡潔句子。

Sentence structure errors

× Well-being able to have stable income, healthy body and mind, family, grades and my friends are the most important things for me in my life.

Being able to have a stable income, a healthy body and mind, family, good grades, and my friends are the most important things in my life.

原句開頭誤將 "Well-being" 與下一部分連寫,且缺少冠詞和形容詞一致性。建議:使用非限定動名詞短語 "Being able to..." 開頭,並在名詞前加合適的冠詞或形容詞(a stable income, good grades)。

Sentence structure errors

× So having friends is, uh, really essential for me. They are the colors of my world. They make me.

So having friends is really essential for me. They are the colors of my world. They make me happy.

最後一句 "They make me." 是不完整的(缺少賓語或補語)。應補上情感表達(例如 "happy")。建議:補全句子以表達完整意義。

Incorrect use of pronouns

× Well, I prefer to spend my time with a group of friends because I find myself to be in trouble with a friend if I spend too much time with them.

Well, I prefer to spend my time with a group of friends because I find myself getting into trouble with a friend if I spend too much time with them.

原句中 "find myself to be in trouble" 不自然,英語更常用 "find myself getting into trouble" 或 "get into trouble"。建議:使用慣用語 "get into trouble" 或動名詞結構。

Incorrect use of quantifiers

× I don't know if there is any psychological explanation towards it, but still, I think I'm safe with a group of friends instead of 1.

I don't know if there is any psychological explanation for it, but still, I think I'm safer with a group of friends instead of one.

幾點修改:1) "explanation towards it" 應為 "explanation for it";2) 使用數字 "1" 替換為單詞 "one" 更正式;3) 用比較級 "safer" 比較恰當。建議:用固定搭配 "explanation for"、寫出完整單詞以及使用比較級表達更安全。

Incorrect use of pronouns

× I stay in a dormitory or with five different people, so it is not easy for me to invite my male friends.

I stay in a dormitory with five other people, so it is not easy for me to invite my male friends.

原句 "or with five different people" 語序和連詞錯誤,應為 "with five other people"(與其他五人同住)。建議:使用 "with five other people" 來表達與其他人同住。

Incorrect tense usage

× But most of my girlfriends have been invited to my dormitory to spend time together.

But most of my girlfriends have been invited to my dorm to spend time together. (或) But most of my girlfriends have come to my dorm to spend time together.

"invited to my dormitory" 的被動可以,但用 "have been invited" 暗示邀請動作已發生;此句可更自然表達為 "have come to my dorm"。另外 "dormitory" 可簡化為 "dorm"。建議:選用更自然的表達。

Singular and plural issue

× We were watching soap operas and gossip.

We watched soap operas and gossiped. (或) We were watching soap operas and gossiping.

句式要保持詞性一致:原句把名詞 "gossip" 與動詞短語並列不一致。可改為過去進行時 "were watching... and gossiping" 或簡單過去 "watched... and gossiped"。建議:使並列成分的詞性一致。

Comparison and superlative errors

× Well, one of the clear difference is that before I went to university, I used to make most of my friends in my classroom because I spent a lot of time with the same group of people.

Well, one of the clear differences is that before I went to university, I used to make most of my friends in my classroom because I spent a lot of time with the same group of people.

"one of the" 後面應接複數名詞(differences)。建議:將 difference 改為 differences。

Incorrect use of prepositions

× Nowadays, I have more opportunities to meet people from different faculties and even outside of the university campus.

Nowadays, I have more opportunities to meet people from different faculties and even outside the university campus.

"outside of" 在美式英語可以接受,但在正式書面英語中更常用 "outside the"。此處建議去掉 "of" 使語氣更正式。建議:使用 "outside the university campus"。

Incorrect use of prepositions

× Well for me, privacy level, convenience and comfortability are most of the three important factors when I choose a place to meet up people.

Well for me, privacy, convenience and comfort are the three most important factors when I choose a place to meet people.

多處錯誤:1) "privacy level" 應為 "privacy";2) "comfortability" 不常用,改為 "comfort";3) 語序應為 "the three most important factors";4) "meet up people" 應為 "meet people" 或 "meet up with people"。建議:使用常用詞並調整詞序。

Incorrect use of prepositions

× So I would usually go for uh, the pizza corner or the bar next to our school campus so I can have a casual talk uh with my friends while I'm relaxing.

So I would usually go to the pizza corner or the bar next to our campus so I can have a casual talk with my friends while I'm relaxing.

介詞用法:"go for" 在這裡不恰當,應用 "go to";"school campus" 可簡化為 "campus";同時刪除多餘語氣詞。建議:使用正確的動詞與介詞搭配(go to + 地點)。
