Chatting— Part 1 Report

Suggestion: Старайтесь отвечать более естественно и кратко, избегая повторений и пауз. Начинайте с прямого ответа, затем добавляйте детали, используя связующие слова.

Example: No, I didn't like chatting with friends much because my parents were very strict when I was a child, so I wasn't allowed to talk to them often.

Suggestion: Используйте более разнообразную лексику и связывайте предложения для плавности. Добавьте конкретные примеры, чтобы обогатить ответ.

Example: I usually chat with my friends about our homework and school projects, for example, we discuss how to solve difficult problems or prepare for exams.

Suggestion: Старайтесь избегать повторений и использовать связующие слова для логичности. Формулируйте мысли чётко и кратко.

Example: I prefer chatting with one close friend because I value deep conversations and don't want to lose that special connection.

Suggestion: Уменьшите количество пауз и слов-паразитов, используйте более разнообразные выражения и связывайте предложения.

Example: I prefer face-to-face communication because it allows us to share genuine emotions, like laughter, which can't be fully expressed through emojis on social media.

Suggestion: Старайтесь строить предложения более плавно, избегайте повторов и добавляйте связующие слова для логичности.

Example: I used to argue with my friends over small things because I am introverted and they are extroverted, which sometimes led to misunderstandings between us.

× Well, chatting with friends was not even in my interest because since my childhood my parents were too strict about my uh, limits, so they uh, didn't allow me to chat with friends, so I wasn't uh.

✓ Well, chatting with friends was not even in my interest because since my childhood my parents have been too strict about my limits, so they didn't allow me to chat with friends, so I wasn't.

The phrase 'since my childhood' indicates an action or state that started in the past and continues to the present, so the present perfect tense 'have been' should be used instead of the simple past 'were'. This tense correctly expresses ongoing conditions from the past to now.

× I chat with my friends, uh, mostly about our homework, the task which teacher teachers give us, so there is nothing else when we chat together.

✓ I chat with my friends mostly about our homework, the tasks which the teacher gives us, so there is nothing else when we chat together.

The verb 'teachers' is incorrect here because 'teacher' is singular and requires the third person singular form 'gives'. Also, 'task' should be plural 'tasks' to agree with 'homework' as multiple assignments. The definite article 'the' is needed before 'teacher' to specify which teacher.

× If I got really close friend, I would rather pick uh, chatting with one, one and only friend.

✓ If I had a really close friend, I would rather choose to chat with one, my one and only friend.

The conditional sentence requires the past subjunctive 'had' instead of 'got'. Also, 'pick chatting' is incorrect; the verb 'choose' followed by 'to chat' is appropriate. The phrase 'one and only friend' needs a possessive pronoun 'my' for clarity.

× Communicating face to face is better than social media because, uh, we can share our emotions really.

✓ Communicating face-to-face is better than via social media because we can really share our emotions.

The phrase 'face to face' should be hyphenated as 'face-to-face' when used as an adverb. Also, 'than social media' is unclear; 'than via social media' clarifies the comparison. The adverb 'really' is better placed before the verb 'share' for natural English word order.

× I used to argue with my friends because of little things that got on my nerves.

✓ I used to argue with my friends because of little things that got on my nerves.

This sentence is grammatically correct in past tense and requires no correction.
