Plants— Part 1 Report

Suggestion: Be more concise and correct grammar: start with a clear topic sentence, then add one or two specific details using linking words. Avoid repetition and incorrect words (e.g. “land” → “plants”).

Example: Yes, I keep a few potted plants at home. For example, I have a snake plant and a pothos because they are low-maintenance; however, I don't have much time to water them, so I choose plants that need little care.

Suggestion: Give a clear topic sentence and use past tense consistently. Provide one or two specific supporting details (why it mattered, what you did) and link them logically. Use correct vocabulary (e.g. “grow” not “roasted” lemons for cooking).

Example: When I was young, I helped my parents grow a lemon tree in our garden. I watered and pruned it regularly, and we used the fresh lemons for cooking and drinks, which made me proud and happy.

Suggestion: Organize your answer: state your level of knowledge first, then give specific examples of what you know and how you learn more. Avoid unclear phrases and filler words; use linking words like “however” or “for example.”

Example: I don't know much about plant science, but I can do basic care. For example, I know how often to water and when to repot a plant; if I need more information, I watch instructional videos on YouTube.

Suggestion: Answer directly and confidently, then qualify if necessary. Use clearer phrasing and specific examples rather than “movies or series.” Avoid repetition and incorrect words (e.g. “plans” → “plants”).

Example: I'm not Chinese, but from what I've seen, people sometimes give plants as gifts, especially to elderly relatives or to show respect to someone important; for example, a potted orchid might be given at a housewarming.

× Yeah, I I really love the I want to keep the environment green, so I keep land at home, but I don't have lots of time to take care of it.

✓ Yeah, I really love plants and I want to keep the environment green, so I keep plants at home, but I don't have much time to take care of them.

The original sentence has repetition and unclear phrasing ('I I', 'the I'), incorrect noun choice ('land' instead of 'plants'), and mismatched quantifier and pronoun. This is a sentence structure and word choice problem. Suggestion: remove repeated words, use 'plants' for household greenery, use 'much time' with uncountable 'time', and use plural pronoun 'them' to match 'plants'.

× Umm, when I was young, my parents teach me how to plant the lemon.

✓ Umm, when I was young, my parents taught me how to plant a lemon tree.

The action happened in the past, so the verb should be past tense ('taught' not 'teach'). Also 'the lemon' is unnatural; use 'a lemon tree' or 'lemons'. Suggestion: use past tense for past events and correct noun phrase.

× The lemon tree. Yeah. And I roasted the lemon to use in my cook.

✓ It was a lemon tree. I used the lemons in my cooking.

Fragments and incorrect verb choice ('roasted the lemon to use in my cook') create sentence structure errors. 'Roasted' may be wrong for using lemons; more natural is 'used the lemons in my cooking'. Suggestion: combine fragments into full sentences and choose verbs that match the intended meaning.

× It's really nice and it's made me feel really happy.

✓ They were really nice and they made me feel very happy.

The sentence mixes present and perfect forms. If referring to past events (using lemons), use past tense 'were' and 'made'. Also replace 'it's' with plural 'they' to match 'lemons'. Suggestion: keep tense consistent and match subject number.

× Actually, I have a lot of supporting for all my parents.

✓ Actually, I get a lot of support from my parents.

'Supporting' is the wrong form; use the noun 'support'. Also preposition and phrasing are incorrect. This is a verb/noun form and preposition issue that affects third-person structure; provide correct collocation 'get support from'. Suggestion: use 'get' or 'receive' plus 'support from'.

× So I'm not really like, no, I have not a lot of diversity knowledge about growing Glenn, but I know a little bit.

✓ So I'm not an expert; I don't have a lot of diverse knowledge about growing plants, but I know a little bit.

This sentence has multiple problems: awkward filler ('like, no'), incorrect negative formation ('I have not a lot of'), wrong word 'diversity knowledge' and incorrect name 'Glenn' (probably 'plants'). These are sentence structure and vocabulary choice issues. Suggestion: use clear negation 'I don't have a lot of', use 'diverse knowledge' or 'detailed knowledge', and correct the noun to 'plants'.

× It's like I know how to take care of it, how to keep it alive.

✓ I know how to take care of them and how to keep them alive.

Pronoun number should match ('it' to 'them' for 'plants'). The structure 'It's like' is informal and unnecessary. The grammatical issue is pronoun agreement and correct reference. Suggestion: use 'them' for plural and avoid filler 'It's like'.

× And I can learn from YouTube, you know, So I think it's not a problem.

✓ I can learn from YouTube, so I think that's not a problem.

Capitalization and sentence join issues; 'So' should not be capitalized after a comma. Also 'it's' can be clearer as 'that's' referring to learning from YouTube. Suggestion: join clauses correctly and use appropriate pronoun reference.

× Oh I'm not a Chinese people but I think when I watch from the movies or some series they will send plans at a gift when when they want to give it to the older, the elderly or when they want to give it to some someone like important in their life.

✓ Oh, I'm not Chinese, but I think when I see it in movies or series they often send plants as gifts when they want to give them to older people, the elderly, or to someone important in their life.

Multiple pronoun and article errors: 'a Chinese people' should be 'Chinese' (adjective), 'watch from the movies' should be 'see in movies', 'send plans at a gift' should be 'send plants as gifts', and pronoun agreement 'give them to older people'. Also remove duplicate words and fix 'some someone'. Suggestion: use correct adjective/noun forms, 'plants as gifts', and plural pronouns to match 'plants'.
