Are you good at giving gifts?
Pontuação: 50.0Sugestão: Be more concise and directly answer the question first (Yes/No and brief reason). Avoid repetition and incorrect words (e.g. “games”, “to him”). Use one or two supporting details with linking words to clarify why you find it easier to give gifts to people you know.
Exemplo: Yes, I’m fairly good at giving gifts to people I know. Because I understand their tastes and needs, I can pick something appropriate and meaningful, such as a book for a friend who loves reading or a kitchen gadget for a relative who enjoys cooking.
When do you usually give gifts to others?
Pontuação: 70.0Sugestão: Start with a clear topic sentence and use one linking word to add a reason. Reduce hesitations and keep to 2–3 sentences. Provide a specific example of a festival or an important day to make the answer more concrete.
Exemplo: I usually give gifts during traditional festivals like Chinese New Year and on important days such as birthdays. For example, I often give small presents to family members at New Year to show appreciation and strengthen our relationship.
What do you consider when choosing a gift?
Pontuação: 55.0Sugestão: Provide a clear opening sentence listing the main factors, then give one specific example using a linking word (e.g. “for example” or “because”). Avoid repeated small words and grammar errors (e.g. “consider about” → “consider”). Be specific about how relationship affects budget.
Exemplo: I consider factors like timing, size and especially price when choosing a gift. For example, if the recipient is a close friend I might spend more on a meaningful present, but for an acquaintance I would choose a modest, inexpensive item.
Have you ever given others a handmade gift?
Pontuação: 45.0Sugestão: Answer directly (Yes/No) then explain briefly why with one supporting detail. Avoid unclear words (“level”, “lumsy”) and repetition. Offer a short alternative if you don’t make handmade gifts (e.g. including a handwritten note) to show thoughtfulness.
Exemplo: No, I haven’t made handmade gifts because I’m not very good at crafting and I’m a bit clumsy. Instead, I usually buy a thoughtful gift online and include a handwritten card to make it more personal.
Do expensive gifts better express your feelings?

× MMM, it depends on what kind of games and what kind of people I want to give to him.
✓ It depends on what kind of gifts and what kind of person I want to give them to.
Singular/plural issues and pronoun placement: 'games' should be 'gifts' (word choice) and 'people' should be 'person' to match 'what kind of' with singular; 'give to him' is awkward placed—use 'give them to' or 'give to him' with clear referent. Use consistent number and place object pronoun after verb phrase.
× If if someone I'm not familiar with, I don't know how to choose a gift for him, but I would like to choose gifts for someone I'm familiar with.
✓ If someone I'm not familiar with, I don't know how to choose a gift for them, but I would prefer to choose gifts for someone I know well.
Singular and plural issue and pronoun use: 'someone' is singular so using 'him' can be gender-specific; 'them' is preferred as a gender-neutral singular pronoun. Also 'someone I'm familiar with' is better expressed as 'someone I know well' for naturalness.
× So yeah, it depends some.
✓ So yeah, it depends.
Sentence structure error: 'depends some' is ungrammatical. The correct idiomatic phrase is 'it depends.' If adding degree, say 'it depends a bit' or 'it depends on the situation.'
× I usually give gifts to others in some traditional festivals and in some important days like someone's birthday.
✓ I usually give gifts to others on traditional festivals and on important days like someone's birthday.
Present tense is fine but preposition errors: use 'on' with days and festivals, not 'in'. Also 'some' is unnecessary; use 'on traditional festivals' or 'during traditional festivals.'
× Umm. I think it was a great way for me to show my gratitude and thanks to them and also it helps us to bond with each other umm.
✓ I think it is a great way for me to show my gratitude and thanks to them, and it also helps us bond with each other.
Tense issue: use present 'is' to match habitual action. Redundant 'gratitude and thanks'—use one. 'Helps us to bond' is acceptable but 'helps us bond' is more natural.
× Umm, I always consider about the the time, the size, the and and the price.
✓ I always consider the time, the size, and the price.
Incorrect use of prepositions: do not use 'consider about'; correct verb is 'consider' followed directly by object. Also remove duplicate words and extra articles.
× Yes, especially price when I choose the gifts.
✓ Yes, especially the price when I choose gifts.
Article and preposition use: add 'the' before 'price' and omit 'the' before 'gifts' unless referring to specific gifts.
× For example, when I consider about the send sending a gift to my friends, I will consider about the price depend on the relationship between us.
✓ For example, when I consider sending a gift to my friends, I will consider the price depending on the relationship between us.
Incorrect use of prepositions and verb forms: remove 'about' after 'consider'; correct gerund is 'sending'. Use 'consider the price' and 'depending on' for cause. Also fix duplicated words.
× Have you ever given others a handmade gift?
✓ Have you ever given someone a handmade gift?
Article and pronoun choice: 'others' is plural and awkward with 'a handmade gift'; 'someone' is better for an indefinite recipient. Question context prefers singular 'someone'.
× No level because I don't think I'm a person who is good at making a handmade gift.
✓ No, never, because I don't think I'm a person who is good at making handmade gifts.
Sentence structure and word choice: 'No level' is incorrect; likely meant 'No, never.' Use plural 'handmade gifts' or 'a handmade gift.' Article 'a' plus plural mismatch corrected.
× Hmm I'm some kind lumsy so I usually choose to buy some gifts online or from some shopping mall and just to send them.
✓ I'm kind of clumsy, so I usually choose to buy gifts online or from a shopping mall and just send them.
Incorrect pronoun and word choice: 'some kind lumsy' should be 'kind of clumsy.' Remove unnecessary 'some' before 'gifts' and 'to' before 'send' after 'just.' Use 'a shopping mall' or 'shopping malls'.
× Send it to them.
✓ I send them to them.
Singular/plural and pronoun clarity: 'Send it to them' is unclear and fragmented. Better to say 'I send the gifts to them' or 'I send them to my friends.' Ensure subject is present if needed.
× Low, I don't think so.
✓ No, I don't think so.
Present tense and word choice: 'Low' is a mispronunciation/wrong word; use 'No.' Maintain present-tense opinion.
× MMM gives whether a gives is good or lost or it depends not on the not depends on the price, but on how much efforts I put it in two world for example, I always spend a lot of time to.
✓ Whether a gift is good or not does not depend on the price, but on how much effort I put into it; for example, I always spend a lot of time choosing a gift.
Multiple sentence structure errors: reworded for clarity. Correct subject-verb order 'Whether a gift is good or not does not depend on the price.' Use 'effort' (uncountable) not 'efforts' in this context, and 'put into it.' Complete final clause with a verb 'choosing a gift.'
