Conversation

Part 1

Examiner

Do you keep plants at home?

Candidate

No, I do not keep plants at home because in Hong Kong there are limited space for every household. So I do not keep a plant because I do not have any space for me to place my plan. And also keeping appliance at home, meaning you need to take care of it, for example, you need to water it, it is really time consuming.

Examiner

What plant did you grow when you were young?

Candidate

I still remember, I've grown actors when I was young because it is a kind of plant that pretty easy to plant it because you do not need to pay too much attention on it. Just water it when you remember instead of everyday and it will still survive.

Examiner

Do you know anything about growing a plant?

Candidate

Uh, I think I know a little bit about the skill of growing a plant. For example, you do not need to water the plant everyday because it will be drawn if you pour too many water on it. And also every plant needs sunlight to survive.

Examiner

Do Chinese people send plants as gifts?

Candidate

Yes, of course, Chinese people always send plants as a gift. For example, in Chinese New Year, people usually were sending lucky bamboo to each other. From its name, we can know that it is the symbol of luck and money. Therefore, the Chinese people would send it to each other and hope everyone can have a good meaning in the upcoming year.

Grammar

Singular and plural issue

× No, I do not keep plants at home because in Hong Kong there are limited space for every household.

No, I do not keep plants at home because in Hong Kong there is limited space for every household.

这里的主语是单数的“space”,所以谓语动词应该用单数形式“is”,而不是复数形式“are”。

Singular and plural issue

× So I do not keep a plant because I do not have any space for me to place my plan.

So I do not keep a plant because I do not have any space for me to place my plant.

这里“plan”应为“plant”,是拼写错误,不属于语法问题,但为了语义正确需要更正。

Singular and plural issue

× And also keeping appliance at home, meaning you need to take care of it, for example, you need to water it, it is really time consuming.

And also keeping appliances at home means you need to take care of them; for example, you need to water them, which is really time consuming.

“appliance”应为复数“appliances”,因为指的是多种植物。动词“means”应与主语“keeping appliances”一致。代词“it”应改为“them”以对应复数。

Past tense issue

× I still remember, I've grown actors when I was young because it is a kind of plant that pretty easy to plant it because you do not need to pay too much attention on it.

I still remember, I grew orchids when I was young because it is a kind of plant that is pretty easy to plant because you do not need to pay too much attention to it.

“I've grown”应改为一般过去时“I grew”,因为描述过去的动作。单词“actors”应为“orchids”,拼写错误。缺少“is”使句子不完整。介词“on”应改为“to”。

Incorrect use of prepositions

× Just water it when you remember instead of everyday and it will still survive.

Just water it when you remember instead of every day and it will still survive.

“everyday”是形容词,表示“日常的”,这里应使用副词短语“every day”,表示“每天”。

Modal verb usage

× Uh, I think I know a little bit about the skill of growing a plant.

Uh, I think I know a little bit about the skill of growing plants.

“skill of growing a plant”应改为“skill of growing plants”,更符合习惯表达。

Singular and plural issue

× For example, you do not need to water the plant everyday because it will be drawn if you pour too many water on it.

For example, you do not need to water the plant every day because it will be drowned if you pour too much water on it.

“everyday”应为“every day”。“drawn”应为“drowned”,表示“淹死”。“too many water”应为“too much water”,因为“water”是不可数名词。

Incorrect use of prepositions

× And also every plant needs sunlight to survive.

And also every plant needs sunlight to survive.

该句无语法错误,无需修改。

Past tense issue

× Yes, of course, Chinese people always send plants as a gift.

Yes, of course, Chinese people always send plants as gifts.

“as a gift”应改为复数“as gifts”,因为“plants”是复数。

Past tense issue

× For example, in Chinese New Year, people usually were sending lucky bamboo to each other.

For example, in Chinese New Year, people usually send lucky bamboo to each other.

“were sending”是过去进行时,不符合习惯表达,应该用一般现在时“send”,因为描述习惯性动作。

Incorrect use of pronouns

× From its name, we can know that it is the symbol of luck and money.

From its name, we can know that it is a symbol of luck and money.

“the symbol”暗示唯一性,但“lucky bamboo”只是象征之一,使用不定冠词“a”更合适。

Incorrect conjunction use

× Therefore, the Chinese people would send it to each other and hope everyone can have a good meaning in the upcoming year.

Therefore, Chinese people send it to each other and hope everyone can have good fortune in the upcoming year.

“would send”表达假设,语境中应使用一般现在时“send”。“have a good meaning”表达不自然,改为“have good fortune”更符合习惯表达。
