Part 1
Examiner
Do you like shopping?
Candidate
I'm not really interested in shopping because I feel uncomfortable in places that are crowded or noisy.
Examiner
Do you compare prices when you shop? Why?
Candidate
Yes, I'd like to shop around before making a decision, especially when shopping online since there are other products that are relatively cheap.
Examiner
Is it difficult for you to make choices when you shop?
Candidate
Yes, it's quite difficult for me to make choices when I shop because there are various options for me online and sometimes I will be attracted by those glossy ads, so I can't make a decision immediately.
Examiner
Do you think expensive products are always better than cheaper ones?
Candidate
I don't think so. Some companies make products that are cheaper, but they are also high in quality. For example, I've recently bought some clothes online and they were durable.
Do you like shopping?
Score: 78.0Suggestion: 回答直接且自然,但可以更简洁并加入少量细节来丰富内容。建议在主题句后用一到两句具体说明何种场合让你不舒服(例如人多、吵闹或长时间逛街),并用连接词使句子更连贯。注意不要超过五句话。
Example: Not really. I usually avoid shopping because crowded, noisy malls make me uncomfortable, especially during weekends. For that reason, I prefer shopping online where it's calmer and more convenient.
Do you compare prices when you shop? Why?
Score: 84.0Suggestion: 回答清晰且相关,但可用更自然的连词和具体例子来增强说服力。建议说明你如何比价(看评论、使用比价网站或等待促销),并用一两个连接词使表达更流畅。句子不要过长。
Example: Yes, I usually shop around before buying, especially online. I compare prices on different websites and check reviews, because sometimes the same product is much cheaper on one site than another.
Is it difficult for you to make choices when you shop?
Score: 80.0Suggestion: 理由明确但略显冗长,可更有条理地使用连接词并给出具体例子或后果。建议先给出主题句,然后用一两句说明是什么原因(很多选择、广告诱惑),最后可补充一项应对方法以显得更完整。保持句子数在五句以内。
Example: Yes, it is. There are so many similar options online that I often get overwhelmed, and flashy ads make it harder to focus. To deal with this, I usually make a short list of features I need and compare just those items.
Do you think expensive products are always better than cheaper ones?
Score: 86.0Suggestion: 回答观点明确且举例支持,但可以用更自然的衔接词并把例子具体化(如品牌、材质或使用时间)。建议先给出简短立场句,然后用具体例子和原因支持观点,最后可用一小句总结。
Example: No, I don't think so. Price doesn't always equal quality; some affordable brands use good materials and careful manufacturing. For example, I bought a jacket online from a lesser-known brand last year and it stayed in good condition after many washes, so I think value matters more than price.
× I'm not really interested in shopping because I feel uncomfortable in places that are crowded or noisy.
✓ I'm not really interested in shopping because I feel uncomfortable in places that are crowded or noisy.
原句时态与表达均正确,使用现在时陈述一般事实(对购物的态度和对拥挤噪音场所的感受),不需要修改。
× Yes, I'd like to shop around before making a decision, especially when shopping online since there are other products that are relatively cheap.
✓ Yes, I like to shop around before making a decision, especially when shopping online since there are other products that are relatively cheap.
原句中使用“I'd like to”更常表示愿望或现在想做某事,而题目问的是习惯性行为(购物时是否比较价格),应使用一般现在时或习惯表达“I like to shop around”来表示经常比较价格。建议使用一般现在时表习惯。
× Yes, it's quite difficult for me to make choices when I shop because there are various options for me online and sometimes I will be attracted by those glossy ads, so I can't make a decision immediately.
✓ Yes, it's quite difficult for me to make choices when I shop because there are various options online and sometimes I am attracted by those glossy ads, so I can't make a decision immediately.
原句中混用了现在时和将来/习惯将来时("sometimes I will be attracted"),描述习惯或经常发生的情况应使用一般现在时("I am attracted" 或 "I get attracted"/"I am attracted"更自然)。同时可省略“for me”或调整为更简洁的结构。建议将表示经常发生的动作改为一般现在时。
× I don't think so. Some companies make products that are cheaper, but they are also high in quality. For example, I've recently bought some clothes online and they were durable.
✓ I don't think so. Some companies make products that are cheaper but are also high in quality. For example, I recently bought some clothes online and they were durable.
第一句部分时态和结构基本正确,但最后一句中“I've recently bought”使用现在完成时后接“they were durable”(过去时)在时间参照上不一致。描述最近发生且与现在相关的结果时可用现在完成时并接现在时描述结果(例如“they have been durable”或直接用过去时统一为“recently bought ... and they were durable”)。这里为简洁将动词统一为过去时:"I recently bought... and they were durable"。建议保持时态一致,若强调与现在的关联使用现在完成时并用现在时说明特性。
