What kind of food did you like when you were young?
受験者
When I was young, I liked Japanese food. Well, actually I don't like oily foods or spicy foods, and I grew up with Japanese food mostly, so it was natural for me to be fond of Japanese food.
試験官
Do you eat different foods at different times of the year?
受験者
Yes, I eat different foods at different times of the year. For example, I eat traditional Japanese food on New Year's Day and I eat western style food on Christmas Eve. Having seasonal dishes is very rich in my life.
試験官
Has your favourite food changed since you were a child?
受験者
No, my favorite food hasn't changed since I was a child. Maybe because the sense of flavor hasn't changed so much, so that's why.
What is your favourite food?
スコア: 72.0提案: 答えは直接的で分かりやすいですが、根拠や具体例が不足しています。また、文法や語順に少し不自然さがあります。より自然で説得力のある応答にするために、理由を具体化し、接続詞で理由を整理し、文を簡潔にすることを意識してください。例えば「I like the taste because…」、「also」や「and」の使い方を見直して、情報を過剰に詰め込みすぎないようにしましょう。
例: My favourite food is nachos because I love the crunchy texture and the mix of savory flavours. For example, I often enjoy them with fresh salsa and guacamole, which makes them feel both tasty and somewhat healthy. They’re also affordable, so I can buy them as a quick snack without spending much.
What kind of food did you like when you were young?
スコア: 80.0提案: 回答は明確で一貫していますが、話し言葉の“Well, actually”などがやや冗長です。理由をもう少し具体的にし、接続詞で論理の流れを整理するとより良くなります。例えば、子供時代の具体的な料理や思い出を一つ加えると豊かな答えになります。
例: I liked Japanese food when I was young because my family cooked it at home and I preferred mild flavours. For example, I often had grilled fish and miso soup, which weren’t oily or spicy, so they suited my taste as a child.
Do you eat different foods at different times of the year?
スコア: 78.0提案: 意図は伝わりますが、表現がややぎこちなく、最後の一文は不自然な英語です。季節ごとの具体的な料理名や理由(伝統、家族行事など)を加え、接続詞で文をつなぐと自然になります。
例: Yes, I do. For example, my family eats osechi ryori, traditional Japanese New Year dishes, on New Year’s Day because they symbolize good fortune. By contrast, on Christmas Eve we usually have a western-style meal like roast chicken, which feels festive and different from our everyday food.
Has your favourite food changed since you were a child?
スコア: 68.0提案: 答えは短く直接的ですが、説明が曖昧で繰り返しが見られます("maybe" と "so that's why" の併用)。理由を明確にし、具体的な例や感情を加えると説得力が増します。また、一文を簡潔に保ち、不要な語を省きましょう。
例: No, my favourite food hasn’t changed. I still enjoy nachos because I like the same crunchy texture and bold flavours that appealed to me as a child, and I often eat them when I want a comforting snack.
