Are you good at remembering numbers?
考生
No, I am not very sensitive about numbers. For example, I always cannot remember my friend's phone numbers after the first time they read it to me. Also, sometimes I have to review the message a few times in order to memorize the security code for registering an application.
考官
Will you use numbers in your future work?
考生
Yes, I am a software engineer and it might work. There are a lot of scenarios that I need to manipulate the numbers in the software system.
考官
Did you enjoy studying math as a child?
考生
No, math is my least preferred subject when I was a child. I don't enjoy the process of learning math and it was hard for me to understand some theory or concepts of mathematics in elementary school, also in middle school, so I really suffered when I was a child.

Which numbers are important to you?
考生
The most important numbers for me are the very last four or 6 digits of my social identity card because I use these numbers for a lot of my security code or passcode, so I need to memorize them all the time otherwise I will have I will lose access to a lot of things.
Are you good at remembering numbers?
分數: 75.0建議: Your answer is clear and relevant, but it could be more natural and concise. Avoid redundancy like "I always cannot"; instead, say "I often can't". Also, try to use linking words to connect your ideas smoothly, such as "For instance" or "Additionally."
範例: No, I'm not very good at remembering numbers. For instance, I often can't recall my friends' phone numbers after hearing them once. Additionally, I usually have to review messages several times to memorize security codes when registering for apps.
Will you use numbers in your future work?
分數: 70.0建議: Your answer addresses the question but lacks clarity and natural phrasing. Avoid vague expressions like "it might work." Instead, be direct and provide specific examples. Use linking words to improve coherence.
範例: Yes, as a software engineer, I frequently work with numbers. For example, I often manipulate numerical data when developing software systems to ensure they function correctly.
Did you enjoy studying math as a child?
分數: 65.0建議: Your answer is honest but could be more concise and natural. Use past tense consistently and avoid repetition. Use linking words like "because" or "so" to connect ideas logically.
範例: No, math was my least favorite subject as a child because I found it difficult to understand the theories and concepts in both elementary and middle school. As a result, I struggled a lot during that time.
Which numbers are important to you?
分數: 70.0建議: Your answer is relevant but a bit wordy and contains some grammatical errors. Simplify your sentences and use linking words like "because" and "so" properly. Also, avoid repeating phrases.
範例: The most important numbers to me are the last four or six digits of my social identity card because I use them for many security codes and passcodes. Therefore, I need to memorize them to avoid losing access to important accounts.
× No, I am not very sensitive about numbers.
✓ No, I am not very good with numbers.
The phrase 'sensitive about numbers' is incorrect. The correct expression is 'good with numbers' to indicate ability or skill related to numbers.
× I always cannot remember my friend's phone numbers after the first time they read it to me.
✓ I can never remember my friend's phone numbers after the first time they read them to me.
The phrase 'always cannot' is awkward; 'can never' is more natural. Also, 'phone numbers' is plural, so the pronoun should be 'them' instead of 'it'.
× I have to review the message a few times in order to memorize the security code for registering an application.
✓ I have to review the message a few times in order to memorize the security code for registering an app.
The phrase 'registering an application' is awkward; 'registering an app' is more natural in this context. However, this is more about word choice than grammar, so this correction is optional.
× Yes, I am a software engineer and it might work.
✓ Yes, I am a software engineer and it might be useful.
The phrase 'it might work' is vague and unclear. 'It might be useful' better conveys the intended meaning. Also, 'it' is unclear here; specifying what 'it' refers to improves clarity.
× There are a lot of scenarios that I need to manipulate the numbers in the software system.
✓ There are a lot of scenarios in which I need to manipulate numbers in the software system.
The phrase 'manipulate the numbers' is awkward; 'manipulate numbers' is more natural. Also, 'that I need to manipulate the numbers' is better expressed as 'in which I need to manipulate numbers' for clarity and correctness.
× No, math is my least preferred subject when I was a child.
✓ No, math was my least preferred subject when I was a child.
The sentence mixes present tense 'is' with past time 'when I was a child'. The verb should be in past tense 'was' to match the time frame.
× I don't enjoy the process of learning math and it was hard for me to understand some theory or concepts of mathematics in elementary school, also in middle school, so I really suffered when I was a child.
✓ I didn't enjoy the process of learning math and it was hard for me to understand some theories or concepts of mathematics in elementary school and middle school, so I really suffered when I was a child.
The sentence mixes present tense 'don't enjoy' with past time references. It should be past tense 'didn't enjoy' to be consistent. Also, 'theory' should be plural 'theories' when referring to multiple concepts. The conjunction 'also' is better replaced with 'and' for smoother flow.
× The most important numbers for me are the very last four or 6 digits of my social identity card because I use these numbers for a lot of my security code or passcode, so I need to memorize them all the time otherwise I will have I will lose access to a lot of things.
✓ The most important numbers for me are the very last four or six digits of my social identity card because I use these numbers for many of my security codes or passcodes, so I need to memorize them all the time; otherwise, I will lose access to many things.
Numbers should be consistent in format ('six' instead of '6'). 'A lot of my security code or passcode' is incorrect because 'code' and 'passcode' are countable here and should be pluralized. 'A lot of' is better replaced with 'many' for countable nouns. Also, the sentence structure is improved by adding a semicolon before 'otherwise' and removing the repeated phrase 'I will'.
