Clothing— Part 1 Report

Suggestion: Be more concise and coherent. Start with a clear topic sentence stating the main preference, avoid filler words (“uh”, “apart from it”), correct vocabulary (e.g. “tracksuit bottoms” or “training pants” instead of “lower”), and provide one or two specific supporting details using linking words (for example, why these clothes suit your activities). Keep to max 4–5 sentences.

Example: I usually wear casual sportswear because I exercise regularly. For example, I prefer T-shirts, training pants, and running shoes which are lightweight and breathable, so I feel comfortable during workouts. I sometimes buy fashionable items too, but comfort is my priority.

Suggestion: Give a direct topic sentence and add a clear reason with a linking word. Remove repetition and awkward phrasing. Use one or two supporting points about occasions when you choose comfortable clothes.

Example: I prefer comfortable, casual clothes rather than smart clothes. Because I go to the gym and play sports often, I need flexible clothes that allow movement, so I usually choose breathable fabrics and loose fits.

Suggestion: Avoid repetition and unclear phrases (“feet T-shirt”, repeated brand). Give a clear topic sentence, then a specific detail (brands, styles, occasions) and a brief reason. Use linking words to connect ideas.

Example: Yes, I often wear T-shirts because they are comfortable and versatile. For casual outings I choose branded T-shirts such as Nike or Adidas for quality, while at home I wear plain, inexpensive T-shirts for comfort.

Suggestion: Answer directly about time spent choosing clothes, then explain with one or two specific reasons. Avoid informal phrases like “just for surviving”. Keep it polite and natural.

Example: Not really — I don’t spend much time choosing clothes. As an international student on a tight budget, I pick simple, affordable items quickly and focus on practicality rather than fashion.

Suggestion: Give a clear contrast between weekdays and weekends in a topic sentence. Use specific examples and correct expressions (e.g., “casual jeans and light-coloured T-shirts”); avoid trailing off. Use linking words like ‘whereas’ or ‘on weekdays’ to structure the answer.

Example: Yes. On weekdays I usually wear simple, comfortable clothes for studying and classes, whereas at weekends I dress up a bit more in casual fashionable outfits, such as light-coloured jeans paired with a T-shirt, when I go out with friends.

Suggestion: Start with a topic sentence naming preferred colours, avoid vague or repeating terms (e.g., “baggy brown” is confusing). Give specific examples and link to occasions (e.g., casual vs formal). Use correct capitalization and grammar.

Example: I usually prefer light, neutral colours such as brown, gray and beige for everyday wear because they are easy to match. For special occasions I choose a white shirt with black trousers and formal shoes to look smart and presentable.

× I usually buy clothes like uh, T-shirt lower and some sports shoes.

✓ I usually buy clothes like T-shirts, trousers, and sports shoes.

The original uses incorrect singular forms and an unclear word 'lower'. Plural forms 'T-shirts' and 'trousers' are needed when speaking generally. Use commas to separate items. Suggestion: Use plural nouns for general categories (T-shirts, trousers).

× The in these clothes I find myself very comfortable and fit.

✓ In these clothes I feel very comfortable and fit.

The original has extra article 'The' and awkward word order. 'Feel' is the correct verb to express sensation. Remove 'The' and reorder the sentence. Suggestion: Keep subject then verb phrase: 'In these clothes I feel...'.

× I prefer to wear comfortable clothes because being a sports person I usually find it very interesting and whenever I do gym it is very comfortable.

✓ I prefer to wear comfortable clothes because, as a sports person, I find them very practical, and when I go to the gym they are very comfortable.

Errors include awkward clause 'being a sports person' and 'whenever I do gym' (incorrect verb and article). 'Find it very interesting' is odd for clothes; 'practical' or 'comfortable' fits. Use 'go to the gym' and refer to clothes with 'they' or 'them'. Suggestion: Use correct verbs 'go to the gym' and pronouns matching plural 'clothes'.

× I like to wear different T-shirts which are very comfortable and fashionable.

✓ I like to wear different T-shirts that are very comfortable and fashionable.

'Which' can be used but 'that' is more natural in restrictive clauses here. This mainly improves clarity; ensure plural 'T-shirts' matches pronouns and verbs. Suggestion: Use 'that' for essential relative clauses describing the items you like.

× Sometimes I prefer to wear some branded T-shirts like Nike, Nike, Adidas and Woodland.

✓ Sometimes I prefer to wear branded T-shirts like Nike, Adidas, and Woodland.

Repeating 'Nike' is redundant. 'Some branded T-shirts' is acceptable but 'branded T-shirts' is more natural. Use commas correctly in lists. Suggestion: Avoid repetition and keep consistent list punctuation.

× These bands I quite like though.

✓ I quite like these brands though.

'Bands' is a wrong word for clothing labels; 'brands' is correct. Also invert word order to natural English: 'I quite like these brands.' Suggestion: Use correct vocabulary 'brands' and natural word order.

× Apart from it I like to wear feet T-shirt.

✓ Besides that, I like to wear fitted T-shirts.

'Apart from it' is awkward; 'Besides that' or 'Besides' is natural. 'Feet T-shirt' is incorrect—possibly meant 'fitted' or 'full-length'; 'fitted T-shirts' makes sense. Suggestion: Use idiomatic connectors and correct adjectives for garments.

× Now these days I have a very tight budget because I am an international student so I never spend a lot of money in buying T-shirt and clothes.

✓ These days I have a very tight budget because I am an international student, so I never spend a lot of money on buying T-shirts and clothes.

Use 'These days' not 'Now these days'. The correct preposition is 'on' for 'spend money on'. Use plural 'T-shirts'. Add comma before coordinating conjunction 'so'. Suggestion: Use 'spend money on' and plural forms for general items.

× I usually buy some simple clothes just for surviving and that's all.

✓ I usually buy simple clothes just to get by, and that's all.

'For surviving' is unnatural; 'to get by' or 'for everyday use' works. Remove unnecessary 'some' unless needed. Keep conjunction punctuation. Suggestion: Use idiomatic expressions like 'to get by' or 'for everyday use'.

× Yes, during weekends I usually hang out with my friends and I prefer to be some fashionable clothes like jeans with the light color and T-shirt with light color.

✓ Yes, on weekends I usually hang out with my friends and prefer to wear fashionable clothes like light-colored jeans and a light-colored T-shirt.

Use 'on weekends' not 'during weekends'. 'Prefer to be some fashionable clothes' is ungrammatical; use 'prefer to wear'. Use 'light-colored' as adjective before nouns. Include articles where needed: 'a light-colored T-shirt'. Suggestion: Use correct preposition 'on', verb 'wear', and place adjectives before nouns.

× What is more, whenever I do gym, I prefer to wear long T-shirts and trousers because I am a huge fan of.

✓ What is more, when I go to the gym, I prefer to wear long T-shirts and trousers because I am a big fan of them.

'Do gym' is incorrect; use 'go to the gym'. The clause ends with 'because I am a huge fan of.' which lacks an object — add 'them'. Suggestion: Always provide the object for 'fan of' and use 'go to the gym'.

× I like to wear different kind of colors, especially light colors like brown, Gray, and uh, baggy brown.

✓ I like to wear different kinds of colors, especially light colors like brown and gray, and sometimes baggy brown items.

Use plural 'kinds' with 'different'. 'Gray' should be lowercase and commas used properly. 'Baggy brown' alone is unclear; rephrase as 'baggy brown items' or 'baggy brown clothes'. Suggestion: Match quantifier number ('different kinds'), lowercase color names, and make modifiers clear.

× Apart from it, whenever I have to attend a special occasion, I like to wear white shirts and a black pant with the formal shoes.

✓ When I have to attend a special occasion, I like to wear a white shirt with black pants and formal shoes.

'Apart from it' is unnecessary. Use singular 'a white shirt' and plural 'black pants' (not 'a black pant'). 'Formal shoes' does not need 'the'. Ensure parallel structure. Suggestion: Use correct singular/plural forms for garments and natural word order.
