Editorial

Study in Your Own Way for Best Results

Each of us has a unique learning style. We learn best when we study according to that style. For example, in a course that focuses on theory, students who prefer reading input have a great advantage. However, when it comes to workshops, hands-on learners do much better than verbal learners.

Okay from the passage it says that everyone has their different study style and on theory basis lecture students who prefer reading input is- is do much better and however, when the practice basis workshop hands on will do much better than verbal learners.

But however in the graph it shows that verbal learners and hands on learners ac- actually do the same at practice base workshop so it- it basically deny the- the essay.

But for me, actually I'm pretty agree with the essay because I think a lot of things you need to do it, you need to write it and not just learning by your eyes or just say it. You have to on your hands so you can actually take the skill, especially in science experiment, so you actually do it to reach the end and you remember, uh oh how do I- how can I do this thing not just by looking through it. It- it- you can't remember just by looking through actua- uh at least for me I'm not genius like that yes so I have to do the things and remember that by my body, yeah I'm the practice basis learner, yeah I'm hands on learner so I actually can agree with the passage not the graph. But one of my friends say, yeah, he's such a genius he can remember things by just looking at it maybe one time or two times, so uh ge

評析

  • 清楚說明短文內容,正確描述圖表、說出矛盾點。表達充足,整體而言充分、妥切比較圖文重點。能掌握表達所需句型結構和詞彙,使用that 子句和however, so, because 等連接詞。第2題立場同意文章內容,舉例自己屬於hands-on learners,並對比朋友屬於verbal learners 的例子,整體語意邏輯大致清楚連貫。發音語調大致清晰適切。
  • 部分句構和文法有誤(例如 you need to write it and not just learning by your eyes or just say it),語意表達雖不夠精確,但不影響理解。

C1 作答樣例與評析

C1作答樣例(此為考生實際作答樣例,保留原有錯誤,音檔內容說明如下方文字)

The passage on the left said that student who prefer reading have a great advantage on theory base lectures while hands on learners do much better than um do better on practice based workshops.

However, the graph on the right shows that verbal learners do, good at, theory base lecture. But it didn't support the passage because hands on learners didn't do so much better than verbal learners on practice base workshops...

And I disagree uh I disagree with the passage because while learning theory base lecture. I think it is also important on doing some hands on jobs. For example, while I'm learning embryology, it is really an theory based lectures, I use to reread notes again and again, but I didn't do well on my tests. After changing my learning style from reread my notes to making some questions and answer those questions from myself, I really improve, my score really have a great improve. So I think it is not, only on result on, what learners is good at which lectures, it still have to depend on, it still have to depend on your personal learning style.

評析

  • 清楚說明短文主旨。直指圖文核心、清楚說出矛盾點。表達充足,整體而言充分、妥切比較圖文重點。
  • 第1題靈活運用while, however 等詞呈現圖文對比,精確表達語意,第2題善用for example, but, after 等詞承接語意,用字較廣且靈活(例如embryology, reread notes),語意表達精確。另針對第2題表達和文章內容不同的立場,詳述自己改變學習策略後成績進步的學習經驗,整體語意邏輯清楚連貫。發音語調清晰適切。
