Music— Part 1 Report

Suggestion: Make the response more grammatical, concise and specific. Start with a clear topic sentence, then give one or two concrete reasons with linking words. Avoid vague phrases like “good condition” and correct verb forms (e.g. “listening to”).

Example: I prefer happy music. I enjoy upbeat songs because they lift my mood and increase my energy. For example, when I listen to cheerful pop in the morning, I feel more motivated to start my day.

Suggestion: Clarify vocabulary and grammar: use words like “energised” or “uplifted” instead of “aggressive”. Give a clear reason and use a linking word (e.g. “because”). Keep it concise and correct verb forms (e.g. “upbeat music”).

Example: Yes, happy music makes me feel more energised because upbeat rhythms and cheerful lyrics change my mood quickly. For instance, when I’m feeling down I play lively pop songs and soon I feel more positive and alert.

Suggestion: Structure the answer: brief topic sentence, then one specific detail about what you learned and when. Use correct tense (e.g. “I learned to play the piano as a child”) and avoid fragmented sentences.

Example: Yes, I have. I learned to play the piano when I was a child and studied basic classical pieces. I can still play simple classical pieces and some J-pop songs that I enjoy.

Suggestion: Make the sentence grammatically correct and specific. Use a linking example phrase (e.g. “for example”) and correct collocations like “listening to music” and “upbeat music”. Explain briefly how it helps you concentrate.

Example: Yes, I do. Listening to music helps me concentrate and relax. For example, when I’m cooking I often play upbeat music because it keeps me focused and makes the task more enjoyable.

× Listening happy music makes me a good condition and they had a positive power, so people can get positive.

✓ Listening to happy music puts me in a good condition and gives me positive energy, so people can feel positive.

Missing preposition 'to' after 'listening' and incorrect adjective/adverb use: 'a good condition' is unnatural — use 'in a good condition' or 'in a good mood.' 'They had a positive power' mixes tenses and pronouns; use 'gives me positive energy.' Improve word choice and sentence cohesion. Suggestion: use 'Listening to' + noun phrase and replace vague words ('power') with 'energy' or 'feeling.'

× Yes, happy music makes me more aggressive so if I feel negative mood.

✓ Yes, happy music makes me feel more energetic when I am in a negative mood.

Incorrect preposition and vocabulary: 'more aggressive' is likely wrong word choice; 'feel more energetic' fits context. 'So if I feel negative mood' is ungrammatical—use 'when I am in a negative mood.' Use 'feel' with emotions and include the verb 'am' for the state.

× I listen to up music and I can get positive power.

✓ I listen to upbeat music and I can get positive energy.

'Up music' is incorrect word choice; use 'upbeat' as an adjective before 'music.' 'Positive power' is unnatural; 'positive energy' is idiomatic. No article is needed before 'upbeat music.'

× Yes I have. I have played the piano when I was a child so I can play some classic or some J pop I like.

✓ Yes, I have. I played the piano when I was a child, so I can play some classical pieces and some J-pop that I like.

Mixed tenses: 'I have played' with 'when I was a child' is incorrect because a specific past time requires simple past 'played.' 'Classic' should be 'classical' when referring to music and 'J pop' should be written 'J-pop.' Add commas and articles for clarity.

× Playing the music.

✓ I enjoy playing music.

Fragment: 'Playing the music.' lacks a subject and verb to form a complete sentence. Turn it into a full sentence like 'I enjoy playing music' or 'I play music.' Remove the definite article unless referring to specific music.

× Yes I do listening music help me concentrate on something.

✓ Yes, I do. Listening to music helps me concentrate on tasks.

Missing 'to' after 'listening' and subject-verb agreement: use 'Listening to music helps' (third-person singular). Also split into two sentences or use conjunction. Replace 'something' with a more specific noun like 'tasks.'

× For example when while I'm cooking I listen to up me upbeat music.

✓ For example, when I'm cooking I listen to upbeat music.

Redundant words 'when while'—use one conjunction. 'Up me upbeat' contains extraneous words; use 'upbeat music.' Remove unnecessary filler. Add comma after 'For example.'
