Clothing— Part 1 Report

Suggestion: Be more concise and avoid fillers. Start with a clear topic sentence, then give one or two specific supporting details. Use linking words to connect ideas and correct oddphrases (e.g., "prep my wings").

Example: I prefer comfortable, sporty clothes because I'm very athletic. For example, I often wear breathable T-shirts and flexible track pants so I can move freely whether I’m exercising or walking around campus.

Suggestion: Answer directly then support with specific reasons and a linking word. Remove repetitions and filler words. Use a concise structure: preference + reason + example.

Example: I prefer comfortable, casual clothes rather than smart clothes because I’m active and don’t like being restricted. For instance, I usually wear T-shirts and sneakers every day so I can move comfortably.

Suggestion: Use a full sentence to begin, avoid fillers and be specific about why you like T-shirts. Add a linking word to list places where you wear them.

Example: Yes, I like wearing T-shirts because they allow me to move freely. For example, I wear T-shirts to college, to the gym and at home when I’m relaxing.

Suggestion: Give a clear topic sentence, then explain the cause briefly with specific details and use linking words (e.g., "because"). Avoid repetition like "choose clothes and purchase them".

Example: Yes, I spend more time choosing clothes now because I’m more particular about fit and style. A few years ago I would buy anything that fitted, but now I compare brands and read reviews before I buy.

Suggestion: Be specific about what you mean by "different styles" and avoid vague or incorrect phrases like "wear a formula." Use linking words to structure examples (e.g., "for example").

Example: Yes, I do. During the week I usually wear casual sporty clothes, but at weekends I experiment more—for example, I might wear a traditional outfit for family events or a smart-casual look for going out with friends.

Suggestion: Start with a clear statement about your current preference, explain the contrast with the past using a linking phrase, and correct grammar ("have changed" → "has changed"). Avoid fillers.

Example: I prefer white clothes now, whereas when I was younger I mostly wore black. This change wasn’t planned; I just find whites feel fresher and easier to match with my casual style.

× I love to wear clothes that are very comfortable, which I can practically do anything because I'm very athletic and I don't like to be very umm.

✓ I love to wear clothes that are very comfortable, in which I can practically do anything because I'm very athletic and I don't like to be very, umm, restricted.

The original sentence uses 'which I can practically do anything' incorrectly; 'which' should refer to a noun and the structure is awkward. Changing to 'in which I can practically do anything' or better 'that allow me to do anything' fixes sentence structure and uses the correct present participle idea. Also 'be very... restricted' clarifies the adjective use.

× I don't like to be in a bubble and I always prep my wings and walk very freely and openly.

✓ I don't like to be in a bubble, and I always spread my wings and walk very freely and openly.

The verb 'prep' is incorrect in context; the intended meaning is 'spread my wings'. 'Spread' is the correct verb form. Also adding a comma before 'and' improves sentence structure.

× I usually love to wear comfortable and casual clothes instead of smart clothes because I'm very athletic and I am not ready to be confined.

✓ I usually prefer to wear comfortable and casual clothes instead of smart clothes because I'm very athletic and not ready to be confined.

Using 'love to' with 'usually' is acceptable but 'prefer to' is more natural for comparisons. Removing the second 'I' in 'and I am not ready' avoids redundancy; contraction 'I'm' is fine but 'not ready to be confined' reads more smoothly.

× I I love to move around a lot and hence I wear T-shirts and sneakers all the time.

✓ I love to move around a lot, so I wear T-shirts and sneakers all the time.

There is a duplicated 'I I' and the conjunction 'hence' is formal and awkward here; replacing it with 'so' improves naturalness. A comma before 'so' clarifies sentence flow.

× Love wearing T-shirt, umm, it gives me more freedom to move around a lot.

✓ I love wearing T-shirts, umm; they give me more freedom to move around a lot.

The original begins with a fragment 'Love wearing T-shirt' missing the subject 'I' and uses singular 'T-shirt' while the general preference needs plural 'T-shirts'. Changing to 'they give' matches plural subject.

× So T-shirt is a very, uh, popular choice for me.

✓ So T-shirts are a very, uh, popular choice for me.

When speaking about a general preference, use plural 'T-shirts are' rather than singular 'T-shirt is'. This fixes article/number agreement.

× I do take a lot of time choosing clothes nowadays, but it wasn't the case a few years back when I found any piece of clothes very easily that would fit me.

✓ I do take a lot of time choosing clothes nowadays, but it wasn't the case a few years ago when I could find any piece of clothing very easily that would fit me.

Use 'a few years ago' rather than 'a few years back' for formality; 'could find' is a clearer past ability expression. 'Piece of clothes' is incorrect; use 'piece of clothing' or 'clothes' (plural). Also 'could' fits past ability better than 'found' in this context.

× But nowadays it's really a tiresome process for me to choose clothes and purchase them and go shopping.

✓ But nowadays it's really a tiresome process for me to choose and buy clothes and go shopping.

Combine 'choose clothes and purchase them' to the more natural 'choose and buy clothes'; reduces redundancy and improves flow.

× Even though I prefer wearing comfortable clothes more, I tend to umm, you know, umm, experiment with different styles.

✓ Even though I prefer wearing comfortable clothes, I tend to, umm, you know, experiment with different styles.

Remove redundant 'more' after 'prefer' which is unnecessary. Commas improve the parenthetical hesitation markers.

× Uh, I would uh, wear a formula for the one day, maybe a traditional one on another day, and maybe a more casual fit on the next day.

✓ Uh, I would, uh, wear a formal outfit one day, maybe a traditional one another day, and maybe a more casual outfit the next day.

'Formula' is incorrect; likely intended 'formal'. Use 'formal outfit' and 'casual outfit' for clarity. Also 'one day/another day/the next day' ordering corrected for naturalness.

× I used to go for black all the time when I was young, but nowadays it have changed to a polar opposite.

✓ I used to go for black all the time when I was young, but nowadays it has changed to the polar opposite.

Subject-verb agreement: 'it have changed' is incorrect; use 'it has changed'. Also use 'the polar opposite' as the correct idiom.

× Now I choose whites more umm even though umm it is not a conscious decision.

✓ Now I choose white more, umm, even though, umm, it is not a conscious decision.

Use 'white' as a color adjective when referring to clothing in general, or 'white clothes' for plural noun. 'Whites' can be informal but ambiguous. Commas added around hesitations improve readability.

× I tend to buy more white clothes nowadays.

✓ I tend to buy more white clothes nowadays.

Sentence is grammatically correct; no change needed. Included for completeness.
