Library— Part 1 Báo cáo

Gợi ý: Be careful with tense and be more natural and concise. Start with a direct present-tense sentence if the question asks about your current habits. Avoid repetition and add a brief specific detail to support your answer. Use linking words if you add extra information.

Ví dụ: Yes, I still go sometimes. I used to go more often as a child to do homework and borrow books, but now I mainly visit the library when I need a quiet place to study for exams.

Gợi ý: Give a clear topic sentence then add specific activities. Use correct verbs and concise phrasing; avoid awkward expressions like "sliding my phone." Use a linking word to connect ideas.

Ví dụ: I usually study and read textbooks in the library, and sometimes I relax there between study sessions. For example, I will review lecture notes for an hour and then scroll my phone briefly to take a break.

Gợi ý: Use consistent tense and expand slightly with a specific detail or example. Start with a direct response, then give a reason or an example, using a linking word to connect them.

Ví dụ: Yes, I did. I enjoyed reading a lot as a child, so I often borrowed storybooks and comics from the library, which helped me improve my vocabulary.

Gợi ý: Avoid vague hedging and try to give a general opinion if you can, even if speculative. If unsure, say so briefly then offer your personal experience or a reasonable guess with a reason. Use linking words to link your uncertainty and your example.

Ví dụ: I'm not sure about all Chinese children, but in my experience many kids I knew visited libraries for study or extracurricular reading. For instance, my classmates often went to the library after school to prepare for exams.

× Yes, I did. When I was a child I went to library quite often just for study.

✓ Yes, I did. When I was a child, I went to the library quite often just to study.

The sentence has past tense context (correct) but misses the definite article before 'library' and uses an awkward phrase 'for study'. Add 'the' for a specific place and use 'to study' (infinitive) for purpose. Also add a comma after the introductory clause for clarity.

× In the library I always study and read some books and sometimes I just sit there and sliding my phone and do nothing, just rest.

✓ In the library I always study and read some books, and sometimes I just sit there and slide my phone and do nothing, just rest.

The phrase 'sliding my phone' incorrectly uses the present participle; the correct verb form is 'slide' to parallel other present simple verbs ('study', 'read', 'sit'). Also add a comma before 'and sometimes' for clarity and to separate coordinated clauses.

× Yes, I did. I actually quite like reading when I was a kid.

✓ Yes, I did. I actually quite liked reading when I was a kid.

The sentence refers to a past time ('when I was a kid'), so the verb should be in past tense ('liked') to match the time reference. Mixing present tense 'like' with a past time phrase is inconsistent.

× To be honest, I don't actually know about that. Umm, for me, I would go when I was a kid.

✓ To be honest, I don't actually know about that. Umm, for me, I went when I was a kid.

The second sentence uses 'would go' incorrectly for a past habitual action; while 'would' can sometimes express habitual past actions, it is clearer and more direct to use the simple past 'went' when stating a past fact. This makes tense consistent with 'when I was a kid.'
