Conversation

Part 1

Examiner

Do you like shopping?

Candidate

Yes, I genuinely enjoy shopping. In fact, I often find myself ordering something online late at night, especially when I'm suffering from insomnia or when I stressed out. Umm. I get such a thrill when I unboxing the stuff that I order online.

Examiner

Do you compare prices when you shop? Why?

Candidate

Why yes. In fact, I don't always compare the prices, but I often go through the feedback section of each product. In that way, I can get the best items within the price range that I can afford. Uh, there is an application which is specifically designed to, uh, help consumers to do that comparison. I think it's convenient.

Examiner

Is it difficult for you to make choices when you shop?

Candidate

While it's not hard for me to make a decision when I shop online, since I have a genuine idea about which platform offers quality goods and which platform offers cheaper options, I can usually narrow it down and make a final call in 15 minutes.

Examiner

Do you think expensive products are always better than cheaper ones?

Candidate

Well I don't agree on expensive products are always better than the cheaper ones, but most of the times the expensive ones are the ones come with the good quality. So if I buy something for the long term I will splurge on something a bit pricier such as jacket or shoes. But if I buy something like AT shirt I would definitely go for cheaper ones.

Part 1

Do you like shopping?

Score: 78.0

Suggestion: 总体回答自然且有内容,但存在口头语(例如“Umm”)和语法小错误(如时态与搭配)。建议减少填充词,简化句子结构并用一两个具体例子替代笼统表述,同时把句子控制在五句以内。可以用更准确的搭配(例如“when I’m stressed”而不是“when I stressed out”),并用现在完成或一般现在时保持一致。

Example: Yes, I enjoy shopping, especially online. For example, I often browse late at night when I can’t sleep, and I sometimes buy small items like phone accessories. I particularly enjoy unboxing new purchases because it feels exciting and satisfying.

Do you compare prices when you shop? Why?

Score: 82.0

Suggestion: 回答逻辑清晰且包含原因,但存在多余填充词(“Uh”)和不必要重复。建议开头直接给出主题句,再用一至两个连贯的支持细节(如具体APP名字或如何使用评价判断质量)。使用连接词如“because”或“so”使逻辑更紧凑。

Example: Yes, I do compare prices, because I want good value for money. I usually read product reviews and use a price-comparison app to check different sellers, so I can choose the best option within my budget.

Is it difficult for you to make choices when you shop?

Score: 85.0

Suggestion: 回答直接且有具体时间框架,信息明确。但句子略显冗长且有些重复(“genuine idea”可更自然地表达为“a good sense”)。建议拆分为两句话,用衔接词增强流畅性,并可补充一个具体例子说明如何快速决定。

Example: Not usually. I know which platforms sell good-quality items and which are cheaper, so I can shortlist a few options quickly. For instance, I compare ratings and delivery time and usually make a decision within 15 minutes.

Do you think expensive products are always better than cheaper ones?

Score: 76.0

Suggestion: 观点明确且包含个人选择,但语法问题较多(如“don't agree on”应为“don't agree that”或“don't think”;“the ones come with the good quality”应为“they often have better quality”)。另外有拼写或词汇错误(例如“AT shirt”不清楚,应改为“T-shirt”)。建议用更简洁句子表达对比,并给出具体判断标准(如材质、品牌、用途)。

Example: I don't think expensive items are always better, but they often have higher quality. For example, I would pay more for a leather jacket or running shoes that I need to last several years, while I’d buy a cheap T-shirt for everyday wear.

Grammar

Present tense issue

× I often find myself ordering something online late at night, especially when I'm suffering from insomnia or when I stressed out.

I often find myself ordering something online late at night, especially when I'm suffering from insomnia or when I'm stressed out.

这里的错误是时态/状态动词的使用不当(现在进行/状态保持)。短语“when I stressed out”缺少助动词或be动词,应为“when I'm stressed out”或“when I get stressed out”,以保持与前半句同为现在的持续或重复状态。建议在表达当前或反复发生的状态时使用现在时态或现在进行时的结构,如“I'm stressed out”或“I get stressed out”。

Verb + -ing form

× I get such a thrill when I unboxing the stuff that I order online.

I get such a thrill when I unbox the stuff that I order online.

错误类型为动词形式错误。句中使用了进行式“unboxing”而在表述一般事件或习惯动作时应使用动词原形或一般现在时“unbox”。建议在描述经常性或习惯性动作时使用一般现在时动词形式(unbox)。

Incorrect use of pronouns

× Why yes. In fact, I don't always compare the prices, but I often go through the feedback section of each product.

Why, yes. In fact, I don't always compare the prices, but I often go through the feedback section for each product.

这里问题在于介词和代词/名词搭配的使用不当(属于代词/介词使用类别交叉)。短语“feedback section of each product”在英语中更常用的搭配是“feedback section for each product”或“feedback section on each product”。建议使用常见搭配以提高表达自然度。

There be issue

× Uh, there is an application which is specifically designed to, uh, help consumers to do that comparison.

Uh, there is an application that is specifically designed to help consumers do that comparison.

问题类型为There be 结构与从句/不定式搭配。原句中“which is specifically designed to, uh, help consumers to do that comparison”中有多余的“to”不定式标记和不必要的逗断,且在定语从句中用“that”或“which”皆可,但更简洁的表达是去掉第二个“to”。建议说“designed to help consumers do...”而不是“designed to help consumers to do...”。

Present tense issue

× While it's not hard for me to make a decision when I shop online, since I have a genuine idea about which platform offers quality goods and which platform offers cheaper options, I can usually narrow it down and make a final call in 15 minutes.

While it's not hard for me to make a decision when I shop online, since I have a good idea about which platform offers quality goods and which platform offers cheaper options, I can usually narrow it down and make a final decision in 15 minutes.

主要问题为措辞和搭配不当(属于时态/词语使用)。“genuine idea”不自然,常用表达是“a good idea”;“make a final call”虽可用但在正式场景更自然的是“make a final decision”。建议使用更常见的搭配以提高口语/书面表达的自然度。

Incorrect use of prepositions

× Well I don't agree on expensive products are always better than the cheaper ones, but most of the times the expensive ones are the ones come with the good quality.

Well, I don't agree that expensive products are always better than cheaper ones, but most of the time the expensive ones are the ones that come with good quality.

包含介词/连词使用错误和冠词搭配错误。首先“agree on”在表达“我不同意某观点”时应使用“agree that”来引导从句;“most of the times”应为“most of the time”或“most times”;“the ones come with the good quality”缺少关系代词和不必要的定冠词,正确应为“the ones that come with good quality”。建议使用固定搭配:“I don't agree that...”,“most of the time”,“that come with good quality”。

Article errors

× So if I buy something for the long term I will splurge on something a bit pricier such as jacket or shoes.

So if I buy something for the long term I will splurge on something a bit pricier, such as a jacket or shoes.

错误为冠词使用不当。名词“jacket”前需要不定冠词“a”表示一件夹克;“shoes”为复数可不加冠词。建议在举例时对单数可数名词加不定冠词。

Incorrect use of articles

× But if I buy something like AT shirt I would definitely go for cheaper ones.

But if I buy something like a T-shirt I would definitely go for cheaper ones.

错误类型为冠词和拼写/大小写错误。原句“AT shirt”应为“T-shirt”,且“T-shirt”作为单数可数名词前需加不定冠词“a”。建议注意商品名称的拼写并为单数可数名词加不定冠词。
