Examiner
What's your favorite colour?
Candidate
Well, generally speaking, I have strong appreciations for light colours such as yellow, red and orange, because in my opinion those colours related to passion, enthusiasm and other kinds of positive emotions. But for the clothing I prefer only black and white.
Examiner
What's the colour you dislike? Why?
Candidate
I don't have any negative appreciation towards any color but by only looking at the cold colors such as black, white and Gray, I will get depressed. Those colors reminds me my depressive moments in life.
Examiner
What colours do your friends like most?
Candidate
Well, we all have different preference when it comes to color. For example, one of my best friend only in the cold colors, which I think is strongly related to her personality. I also often find her to be depressive and pessimistic.
Examiner

Candidate
While there is no any color which makes me uncomfortable in my room, but I find myself having any urge to decorating my home only with cold colors because white, black and Gray links to my unhappy and pessimistic depressive memories.
What's your favorite colour?
Score: 67.0Suggestion: 回答需要更自然、精简并注意语法与搭配。首先用一句主题句直接回答问题,其次用一到两句具体理由或例子支持。改进点:1) 将“appreciations”改为不可数名词“appreciation”或直接用“like”;2) 避免过长句子,拆成两句;3) 注意动词和主谓一致(e.g. “those colours are related to…”);4) 控制在最多五句内并使用连接词如 “because” 或 “however” 来衔接观点。
Example: I like light colours, especially yellow, red and orange because they make me feel energetic and optimistic. However, when it comes to clothing I usually choose black or white because they are simple and easy to match.
What's the colour you dislike? Why?
Score: 52.0Suggestion: 内容情感强烈但表达上有语法错误和用词不当。改进点:1) 用“dislike”直接回答,如“I don't really dislike any colour”或“If I had to choose,…”;2) “appreciation”用法不当,改为“feel negatively about”或“dislike”;3) 注意大小写(gray小写)和主谓一致(“remind me”);4) 细化原因时可用更中性的表达,避免过多私人情绪,保持简洁。
Example: I don't really dislike any colour, but if I had to choose, I'd say grey feels unpleasant to me because it reminds me of gloomy days. For that reason I try to avoid grey in my room.
What colours do your friends like most?
Score: 48.0Suggestion: 回答需要更准确的语法与礼貌表达。改进点:1) 复数与单数配合(preferences, friends, best friend);2) “only in the cold colors”表达不自然,可说“She prefers cool colours”;3) 避免对朋友做负面评价(depressive/pessimistic)或改为更委婉的描述;4) 用连接词如“for example”并给出具体颜色或理由。
Example: We have different preferences. For example, one of my best friends prefers cool colours like blue and grey because she likes calm and simple styles. Others often choose bright colours like yellow or red.
What colour makes you uncomfortable in your room?
Score: 50.0Suggestion: 表达冗长且语法混乱,应简化并直接回答。改进点:1) 直接回答“no”或说明如果有则是哪种颜色;2) 精简句子,避免双重否定(e.g. “no any”错误,应为 “no” 或 “not any”);3) 注意词语搭配(“urge to decorate”而非“urge to decorating”);4) 避免重复多次强调“depressive”,用更中性的词如 “unhappy memories”。
Example: No particular colour makes me uncomfortable in my room. However, I tend to avoid decorating with black, white or grey because they remind me of some unhappy memories, so I prefer adding a few colorful accents.
× Well, generally speaking, I have strong appreciations for light colours such as yellow, red and orange, because in my opinion those colours related to passion, enthusiasm and other kinds of positive emotions.
✓ Well, generally speaking, I have a strong appreciation for light colours such as yellow, red and orange, because in my opinion those colours are related to passion, enthusiasm and other kinds of positive emotions.
错误类型:形容词/名词使用不当。说明:原句用“strong appreciations”不自然,應使用單數不可數名詞“a strong appreciation”或“strong appreciation”。另外动词“related”缺少系动词,应为“are related”。建议:把“appreciations”改为“a strong appreciation”或“strong appreciation”,并在“related”前加上“are”。(更自然的表述)
× But for the clothing I prefer only black and white.
✓ But for clothing I prefer only black and white.
错误类型:形容词/名词使用不当。说明:原句中“the clothing”在此语境多余,應使用不可數名詞“clothing”或複數“clothes”。建議:刪除定冠詞,改为“for clothing”或使用“clothes”。
× I don't have any negative appreciation towards any color but by only looking at the cold colors such as black, white and Gray, I will get depressed.
✓ I don't have any negative appreciation towards any color, but just looking at cold colours such as black, white and gray makes me feel depressed.
错误类型:代词/句子成分使用不当与结构问题。说明:原句“by only looking”与主句搭配不自然,应使用“just looking at...”;颜色单词不需要大写“Gray”。另外主语与谓语一致性问题:主语“looking... makes me”而非“I will get”。建议:把“by only looking at... I will get depressed”改为“just looking at... makes me feel depressed”。(更自然、语法一致)
× Those colors reminds me my depressive moments in life.
✓ Those colors remind me of my depressive moments in life.
错误类型:形容词/动词形式和介词使用错误。说明:“reminds”与复数主语“Those colors”不匹配;还缺少介词“of”在“remind me of ...”中。建议:将“reminds me my”改为“remind me of my”。
× Well, we all have different preference when it comes to color.
✓ Well, we all have different preferences when it comes to colour.
错误类型:句子结构/數量一致性。说明:“preference”應為複數“preferences”或改為“a different preference”視語境而定;另外“colour”拼寫需統一英式(colour)或美式(color)。建議:改为“different preferences”。
× For example, one of my best friend only in the cold colors, which I think is strongly related to her personality.
✓ For example, one of my best friends prefers only cold colours, which I think is closely related to her personality.
错误类型:單複數及動詞缺失。说明:“one of my best friend”应为“one of my best friends”;句中缺少动词“prefers”或“is interested in”;“in the cold colors”用法不自然,应为“prefers only cold colours”。建议:改为“one of my best friends prefers only cold colours”并把“strongly related to”改为更自然的“closely related to”。
× I also often find her to be depressive and pessimistic.
✓ I also often find her to be depressed and pessimistic.
错误类型:形容词用法不当。说明:“depressive”通常作名詞或描述疾病倾向,形容人的情绪通常用“depressed”。建议:把“depressive”改为“depressed”。
× While there is no any color which makes me uncomfortable in my room, but I find myself having any urge to decorating my home only with cold colors because white, black and Gray links to my unhappy and pessimistic depressive memories.
✓ While there isn't any colour that makes me uncomfortable in my room, I find myself wanting to decorate my home only with cold colours because white, black and gray are linked to my unhappy and pessimistic memories.
错误类型:存在句和结构混亂、動詞形式、介詞及單複數錯誤。说明:1) “While there is no any color”用法錯誤,应为“there isn't any colour”或“there is no colour”;2) 不要同時使用“while”和“but”引起重複連接;3) “having any urge to decorating”語法錯誤,应為“wanting to decorate”或“have an urge to decorate”;4) “links”与复数主语不一致,且“depressive”用法应改为“depressed”或刪除重复。建议:重写为“While there isn't any colour that makes me uncomfortable..., I find myself wanting to decorate... because ... are linked to my unhappy and pessimistic memories.”
