What's the weather like where you live?
Candidato
I live in Sichuan and Siju is a place that rains a lot. It rains no matter in summer or in winter. You all you barely see the sun in winter especially. I think I don't like the weather in my place because I am a person who likes.
Examinador
Do you prefer cold or hot weather?
Candidato
I prefer hot weather because I enjoy bright sunny days and feel more energetic in warm temperatures. I dislike wet cold weather because wearing multiple bulky layers is comfortable and makes me daily commute on public transport. Inconvenience and slow.
Examinador
Do you prefer dry or wet weather?
Candidato
I prefer dry weather because I am a person who don't likes to take umbrella. I think using the umbrella is very inconvenient and I don't like rings because I think rains are blooming and it will make me depressed.
Examinador
Are you in the habit of checking the weather forecast? When and how often?
Candidato
Yes, I will check the weather forecast every morning to decide what should I wear because in Taiwan the weather changed a lot, it might be 22° in the morning and suddenly change it to 13° at night. So I will always check the weather forecast to decide.
Examinador
What do you think are the effects of climate change in recent years?
Candidato
I think the most significant effect is that the weather has been on regular these days, because in Taiwan, when I was small, the weather in the winter is usually 10 to 20°, but right now it is always about 25.
Examinador
Would you like to visit other cities that have different climates from where you live?
Candidato
Yes, I will definitely travel to different cities that have different climates because I don't like the weather in my city and I always wanted to go to California to enjoy the weather. They say that the weather in California was very comforting and it always bright.
What's the weather like where you live?
Pontuação: 40.0Sugestão: Be more concise, correct grammatical errors, and give specific details. Start with a clear topic sentence, then add one or two specific supporting details using linking words. Keep to at most five sentences.
Exemplo: I live in Sichuan, in a rainy area called Siju. It rains frequently both in summer and winter, so we rarely see the sun in winter. Because of the constant rain, I often feel gloomy and dislike the local weather.
Do you prefer cold or hot weather?
Pontuação: 45.0Sugestão: Fix grammar and sentence flow, give one clear reason and one brief example. Use linking words to connect ideas and avoid fragmented sentences.
Exemplo: I prefer hot weather because sunny days make me feel more energetic. In contrast, cold rainy weather is inconvenient since I have to wear many bulky layers, which makes commuting by bus slower and less comfortable.
Do you prefer dry or wet weather?
Pontuação: 35.0Sugestão: Clarify vocabulary and fix grammatical mistakes. Give a coherent reason with a clear example; avoid unrelated or unclear expressions (e.g., 'rings', 'rains are blooming').
Exemplo: I prefer dry weather because I dislike carrying an umbrella. For example, when it rains I have to juggle my bag and umbrella on the bus, which I find annoying and tiring.
Are you in the habit of checking the weather forecast? When and how often?
Pontuação: 60.0Sugestão: Good idea and specific details. Improve grammar and tighten sentences. Use linking words and avoid repetition (don't repeat ‘to decide’).
Exemplo: Yes, I check the weather forecast every morning to decide what to wear because Taiwan’s temperature can change quickly – for example, it may be 22°C in the morning but drop to 13°C by night.
What do you think are the effects of climate change in recent years?
Pontuação: 50.0Sugestão: Correct wording and give clearer, more accurate details. Use linking words and provide an example or brief explanation of consequences.
Exemplo: I think one clear effect is warmer winters. For example, when I was a child winter temperatures were usually 10–20°C, but now winters often reach around 25°C, which affects agriculture and peoples’ routines.
Would you like to visit other cities that have different climates from where you live?
Pontuação: 55.0Sugestão: Make the answer more natural and specific: state the reason, mention a specific place and what you expect there. Fix tense and grammar mistakes and use one or two supporting details.
Exemplo: Yes, I would like to visit cities with sunnier climates, such as California. I’ve heard California has mild, sunny weather year-round, which I think would make outdoor activities and sightseeing much more enjoyable.
× It rains no matter in summer or in winter.
✓ It rains both in summer and in winter.
'No matter in' is incorrect here. Use 'both...and' or 'in both summer and winter' to show two time periods. Suggestion: 'It rains both in summer and in winter.'
× You all you barely see the sun in winter especially.
✓ You can barely see the sun in winter, especially.
Word order and extra words are incorrect. Remove the repeated 'you' and place 'especially' after the clause or before the phrase it modifies. Suggestion: 'You can barely see the sun in winter, especially.'
× I think I don't like the weather in my place because I am a person who likes.
✓ I don't like the weather where I live because I am someone who likes sunny weather.
Sentence is incomplete: 'a person who likes' requires an object. Also 'in my place' is awkward; use 'where I live'. Specify what you like. Suggestion: 'I don't like the weather where I live because I am someone who likes sunny weather.'
× I prefer hot weather because I enjoy bright sunny days and feel more energetic in warm temperatures.
✓ I prefer hot weather because I enjoy bright, sunny days and feel more energetic in warm temperatures.
Missing comma between coordinate adjectives 'bright' and 'sunny'. Add comma to separate adjectives modifying the same noun. Suggestion: 'bright, sunny days.'
× I dislike wet cold weather because wearing multiple bulky layers is comfortable and makes me daily commute on public transport.
✓ I dislike wet, cold weather because wearing multiple bulky layers is uncomfortable and makes my daily commute on public transport difficult.
Two issues: preposition/word choice and adjective use. 'is comfortable' is opposite of intended meaning; use 'uncomfortable'. 'makes me daily commute' is ungrammatical — use 'makes my daily commute... difficult'. Also add comma between 'wet' and 'cold'.
× Inconvenience and slow.
✓ It is inconvenient and slow.
Fragment 'Inconvenience and slow' lacks verb and proper forms. Use adjective forms with a subject and verb: 'It is inconvenient and slow.'
× I prefer dry weather because I am a person who don't likes to take umbrella.
✓ I prefer dry weather because I am a person who doesn't like to take an umbrella.
Conjunction/verb agreement: 'who don't likes' mixes negative and agreement incorrectly. Use 'doesn't like'. Also need the article 'an' before 'umbrella'. Suggestion: 'doesn't like to take an umbrella.'
× I think using the umbrella is very inconvenient and I don't like rings because I think rains are blooming and it will make me depressed.
✓ I think using an umbrella is very inconvenient and I don't like rain because I think rainy days make me feel depressed.
Multiple errors: 'the umbrella' should be 'an umbrella' (general), 'rings' is incorrect word — likely 'rain' or 'rainy days'. 'rains are blooming' is ungrammatical; use 'rainy days' or 'rain'. 'it will make me depressed' better as 'make me feel depressed'. Suggestion: 'using an umbrella... I don't like rain because rainy days make me feel depressed.'
× Yes, I will check the weather forecast every morning to decide what should I wear because in Taiwan the weather changed a lot, it might be 22° in the morning and suddenly change it to 13° at night.
✓ Yes, I check the weather forecast every morning to decide what I should wear because in Taiwan the weather changes a lot: it might be 22° in the morning and suddenly drop to 13° at night.
Use present simple for habitual action: 'I check' not 'I will check'. 'what should I wear' is incorrect word order in indirect question — use 'what I should wear'. 'changed' should be 'changes' (present). 'change it to' is awkward; use 'drop to'.
× So I will always check the weather forecast to decide.
✓ So I always check the weather forecast to decide.
Habitual action should use present simple 'I always check' rather than future 'I will always check'.
× I think the most significant effect is that the weather has been on regular these days, because in Taiwan, when I was small, the weather in the winter is usually 10 to 20°, but right now it is always about 25.
✓ I think the most significant effect is that the weather has been irregular these days, because in Taiwan, when I was small, winter temperatures were usually 10 to 20°, but now they are often around 25°.
Several tense and word choice issues: 'on regular' should be 'irregular'. 'when I was small' is fine, but 'the weather in the winter is usually' should be past 'were usually'. 'right now it is always about 25' better as 'now they are often around 25°.' Maintain consistent reference and correct plural 'temperatures'.
× Yes, I will definitely travel to different cities that have different climates because I don't like the weather in my city and I always wanted to go to California to enjoy the weather.
✓ Yes, I would definitely like to travel to different cities with different climates because I don't like the weather in my city and I have always wanted to go to California to enjoy the weather.
'I will definitely travel' is acceptable but in conditional/future intent 'I would like' or 'I will' is fine; more natural: 'I would definitely like to travel' or 'I definitely want to travel'. 'I always wanted' should be present perfect 'I have always wanted' to express a past desire continuing to present.
× They say that the weather in California was very comforting and it always bright.
✓ They say that the weather in California is very pleasant and it is always sunny.
'was' should be present 'is' because 'they say' is present. 'comforting' is odd for weather; use 'pleasant'. 'it always bright' misses verb — use 'it is always sunny.'
