Do you see a lot of advertising on trains or other transport?

Yes, actually, last time. I often notice a considerable amount of advertising on trains and other public transport like buses, particularly in large cities where commuters spend a lot of time traveling with. Sets range from posters and digital screens and psychiatrists to full wrapping advertisements on the Eastern.

In my opinion there are some advantages of advertising. For example it helps you to buy an important product but also it can be provide a impulse purchases and it can be very bad for some.

Examiner

What kind of advertising do you like?

Part 1

Is there an advertisement that made an impression on you when you were a child?

Score: 62.0

Suggestion: Ответ слишком расплывчатый и содержит языковые ошибки. Нужно начать с прямого тематического предложения, затем дать конкретную деталь (какая реклама, что в ней было) и объяснить, почему она впечатлила. Используйте связки (for example, because, especially) и избегайте повторов и лишних слов. Также исправьте грамматику и согласование (e.g., "watched TV ads about toys", "wanted to buy them").

Example: Yes — a TV commercial for a toy robot impressed me when I was a child. The ad showed the robot walking, talking and solving simple puzzles, which made it look very clever and fun. Because it looked so realistic and exciting, I begged my parents to buy it for weeks. For example, the ad ended with kids playing together, which convinced me it would help me make friends.

Do you see a lot of advertising on trains or other transport?

Score: 40.0

Suggestion: Ответ беспорядочный, много лексических и грамматических ошибок и неясных фраз (например, "psychiatrists", "on the Eastern"). Нужно давать чёткое, связное описание с логичными примерами и связками (for instance, such as, especially). Упрощайте фразы и используйте правильные термины: posters, digital screens, vehicle wraps. Ограничьтесь до 3–4 предложений максимум.

Example: Yes, I see a lot of advertising on trains and buses, especially in big cities. For instance, many car and phone ads appear as posters, digital screens or even full vehicle wraps. Because commuters spend a long time travelling, advertisers use this space to reach many people. For example, last week I saw a large advertisement for a new phone covering an entire train carriage.

Do you like advertisements?

Score: 48.0

Suggestion: Ответ содержит идеи, но выражены плохо и с ошибками. Нужно сформулировать тезис (I have mixed feelings), затем привести 2 конкретных причины (польза и вред) с примерами. Используйте связующие слова (however, for example, because) и исправьте грамматику ("it can lead to impulse purchases").

Example: I have mixed feelings about advertisements. On the one hand, they help people discover useful products and compare options, which can save time. However, they can also encourage impulse purchases because they create a sense of urgency or desire. For example, I once bought a gadget after seeing an ad that claimed it was a limited-time offer.

What kind of advertising do you like?

Score: 72.0

Suggestion: Хорошая идея и структура, но есть повторы ("In my opinion"), мелкие грамматические ошибки и неловкие фразы. Сформулируйте одно тематическое предложение, используйте связки (for example, because) и уточните детали (why they engage you). Убирайте повторы и следите за согласованием (ads are, a well-made advert).

Example: I prefer short, creative and informative adverts because they tell a story without being too pushy. For example, a two-minute ad that shows real people using a product and highlights its benefits feels authentic and convincing. Because it explains how the product solves a problem, I'm more likely to remember and trust it.

Do you often see advertisements when you are on your phone or computer?

Score: 50.0

Suggestion: Ответ краткий и немного эмоциональный, с повтором "of course" и нечеткой фразой "of course it." Нужно начать с прямого ответа, затем привести конкретные наблюдения (types of ads, frequency) и пояснить своё мнение с примером. Используйте связующие слова (however, because) и исправьте стиль (useless → often irrelevant or intrusive).

Example: Yes, I often see advertisements on my phone and computer, especially on social media and news websites. Many of them are banner ads or short video ads that interrupt my browsing. However, I find most of them irrelevant because they target generic interests rather than my actual needs; for example, I often get ads for products I already own.

Grammar

Present tense issue

× Yes, of course. When I was a child I often watched TV about different toys and of course I really wanted to buy it.

Yes, of course. When I was a child I often watched TV programmes about different toys and of course I really wanted to buy them.

The student uses 'TV' and singular 'it' incorrectly. 'TV programmes' is clearer and 'toys' is plural so the pronoun must be 'them' not 'it'. Use consistent noun number and matching pronouns. Also replace informal 'TV about' with 'TV programmes about'.

Sentence structure errors

× It was the most impressive ad in my opinion.

In my opinion, it was the most impressive advertisement.

Word order is awkward. Place the opinion phrase at the beginning for clarity and use 'advertisement' instead of abbreviation 'ad' for formality. This improves sentence flow and register.

Present tense issue

× Yes, actually, last time. I often notice a considerable amount of advertising on trains and other public transport like buses, particularly in large cities where commuters spend a lot of time traveling with.

Yes, actually. I often notice a considerable amount of advertising on trains and other public transport like buses, particularly in large cities where commuters spend a lot of time travelling.

The original contains a fragment 'last time' and an unnecessary preposition 'with' at the end. Remove 'last time' or integrate it properly; here it's removed. Also use 'travelling' without 'with'. Keep present simple 'notice' for habitual action.

Sentence structure errors

× Sets range from posters and digital screens and psychiatrists to full wrapping advertisements on the Eastern.

Ads range from posters and digital screens to full-body wrap advertisements on the exterior of trains.

Original sentence has wrong word 'psychiatrists' and unclear noun 'Sets'. Replace with 'Ads' and correct phrase 'full-body wrap advertisements' and clarify location 'exterior of trains'. Ensure logical noun choices and clear meaning.

Article errors

× In my opinion there are some advantages of advertising.

In my opinion, there are some advantages to advertising.

Use the preposition 'to' with 'advantages' to express what the advantages relate to. Also include a comma after the introductory phrase for clarity.

Incorrect use of infinitive or gerund (Verb + -ing form)

× For example it helps you to buy an important product but also it can be provide a impulse purchases and it can be very bad for some.

For example, it helps you buy important products, but it can also encourage impulse purchases and can be very bad for some people.

Multiple issues: remove unnecessary 'to' after 'helps', use plural 'products' to match general meaning, replace incorrect 'provide a impulse purchases' with 'encourage impulse purchases', and add 'people' after 'some'. Also use commas and conjunction order for clarity.

Incorrect use of quantifiers

× In my opinion, the most interesting kinds of advertising for me is the short, creative and informative advertising such as stories or short documentaries.

In my opinion, the most interesting kinds of advertising for me are short, creative, and informative ads such as stories or short documentaries.

Subject 'kinds' is plural so the verb should be 'are' (subject-verb agreement). Also use plural 'ads' and add commas in the list. Maintain parallel structure.

Article errors

× In my opinion, they engage me without feeling instructive.

In my opinion, they engage me without feeling instructive.

This sentence is grammatically correct; no change needed. Included here to indicate no error of the listed types.

Incorrect use of adjectives or adverbs

× For instance, well made advert that explains the product benefits and shows real life use is more convincing than loud.

For instance, a well-made advert that explains the product's benefits and shows real-life use is more convincing than a loud one.

Add the article 'a' before 'well-made advert', hyphenate 'well-made' and 'real-life', use possessive 'product's benefits', and complete comparison by adding 'one' after 'loud'. These changes fix missing articles, hyphenation, and incomplete comparison.

Present tense issue

× Yes, of course I usually see advertisements in different websites and of course it.

Yes, of course. I usually see advertisements on different websites, and of course they do appear everywhere.

Use 'on' with 'websites' not 'in'. The fragment 'of course it' is incomplete; replace with a complete clause such as 'and of course they do appear everywhere' or simply 'and they are everywhere'. Ensure pronoun agrees with 'advertisements' (they).

Sentence structure errors

× But for me I think that it is useless and I don't understand why it is everywhere.

But for me, I think that advertising is useless and I don't understand why it is everywhere.

Use the noun 'advertising' instead of 'it' for clarity in general statements. Add a comma after 'for me' and keep tense present simple 'is' to express general opinion.
