Chatting— Part 1 Báo cáo

Gợi ý: You repeated the examiner's question instead of answering. Give a direct personal response (topic sentence), then add one or two short supporting details. Keep it natural and under five sentences.

Ví dụ: Yes, I do like chatting with friends. I enjoy talking about our daily lives and sharing funny stories, which helps me relax. For example, last week we spent an hour laughing about a mishap at work.

Gợi ý: Again you copied the question rather than responding. Start with a clear topic sentence saying what you usually chat about, and then provide specific examples or reasons using linking words like 'for example' or 'often'.

Ví dụ: We usually chat about our studies and hobbies. For example, we often discuss new books we're reading and plan weekend activities together.

Gợi ý: You repeated the prompt and did not state a preference. Answer directly (e.g., 'I prefer...') and give a brief reason or example. Use linking words like 'because' or 'because of' to connect ideas.

Ví dụ: I prefer chatting one-on-one because conversations feel more personal and focused. For instance, when I'm stressed I like to talk privately with a close friend for advice.

Gợi ý: The student echoed the question rather than answering. State your preference clearly and support it with a reason and a brief example. Use linking words such as 'however' if you mention both methods.

Ví dụ: I prefer face-to-face communication because it's easier to read emotions and build rapport. However, I use social media for quick updates when meeting in person isn't possible.

Gợi ý: You repeated the examiner's question instead of giving an answer. Say whether you argue or not and give a short explanation or example. Keep it concise and natural.

Ví dụ: Occasionally we argue, but usually we resolve things quickly because we value our friendship. For example, we once disagreed about plans but talked it out and found a compromise.
