Do you wear a watch?
Điểm: 68.0Gợi ý: 回答は意味が通じますが、文法ミスと不自然な表現があります。具体的には「always have a phone in my hand」より「always have my phone with me」が自然です。また、冒頭で簡潔なトピック文(Yes/No + reason)を述べ、その後に1つか2つの具体例や状況を追加すると良いです。文は最大5文に収め、接続詞(because, so, therefore)で論理を明確にしてください。
Ví dụ: No, I don't usually wear a watch because I always have my phone with me. For example, when I'm at work or traveling I check the time on my phone instead. Therefore, wearing a watch feels unnecessary for me.
Have you ever got a watch as a gift?
Điểm: 62.0Gợi ý: 意味は伝わりますが、文法と語順の誤りが目立ちます(例:"I got from my mother for 18 years old birthday present" → "I got one from my mother for my 18th birthday")。また、詳細をもう少し加えると印象が良くなります(どんなデザインか、なぜ嬉しかったか)。接続表現(because, although)を使い、自然な流れにしてください。
Ví dụ: Yes, I received a watch from my mother for my 18th birthday. It wasn't brand new, but it had a classic design and reminded me of my family. Because of that, I felt very happy and grateful.
Why do some people wear expensive watches?
Điểm: 60.0Gợi ý: 回答は主旨を示していますが語法と語彙選択に改善が必要です("it will be asset"→"it can be an investment"、"inherit to them"→"pass it on to their children")。また、理由を2点程度に分けて、具体例や比較を加えると説得力が増します。接続語(for example, moreover)で構成を整えてください。
Ví dụ: Some people buy expensive watches because they see them as investments that can retain value over time. For example, a well-known brand may increase in worth, and owners can pass such watches on to their children as heirlooms.
Do you think it is important to wear a watch? Why?
Điểm: 48.0Gợi ý: 文がかなり不自然で意味が取りにくいです(多くのタイポと文法ミスがある)。まずトピック文で立場をはっきり述べ、その後に理由を2つ挙げて具体例で補強してください。表現例としては"it looks fashionable"や"in some business situations using a phone is inappropriate"を使うと自然です。文は短く簡潔にまとめてください。
Ví dụ: Yes, I think wearing a watch can be important because it looks professional and fashionable. In many business situations, checking your phone may seem rude, so a watch is a discreet way to keep track of time.
× Honestly, I don't often wear a watch because I always have a phone in my hand so I don't have to look at the watch.
✓ Honestly, I don't often wear a watch because I always have my phone in my hand, so I don't have to look at a watch.
The sentence mixes definite article usage and general present-tense habits. Use 'my phone' (possession) and 'a watch' (general item) rather than 'the watch'. Also add a comma before 'so' for clarity. Keep present simple to describe habitual actions.
× Yes, I got from my mother for 18 years old birthday present.
✓ Yes, I got one from my mother for my 18th birthday.
The original lacks an object and uses an unnatural age phrase. Say 'got one' to indicate a watch was received. Use 'my 18th birthday' (ordinal with possessive) rather than '18 years old birthday'. Maintain past simple 'got' for a completed action.
× It wasn't brand new watch but I feel so happy and grateful to my family.
✓ It wasn't a brand-new watch, but I felt so happy and grateful to my family.
Missing indefinite article before 'brand-new watch' requires 'a'. Also the speaker refers to a past event, so change 'feel' to past 'felt'. Hyphenate 'brand-new' as a compound adjective. Add a comma before 'but'.
× Because when people buy a luxury watch it will be asset in the future and if you have a kid you can inherit to them.
✓ Because when people buy a luxury watch, it can be an asset in the future, and if you have a child you can pass it on to them.
'Asset' needs an article: 'an asset'. 'Will be' can be softened to 'can be' for general statements about possibility. 'Kid' is informal; 'child' is more neutral. 'Inherit to them' is incorrect — one 'inherits from' someone; to give someone something you 'pass it on to them' or 'leave it to them'. Add commas for clarity.
× Yes, I think it is important to wear what this is because wearing what looks people fashionable and also wanted a business situation, you cannot use a phone.
✓ Yes, I think it is important to wear one because wearing a watch makes people look fashionable, and in some business situations you cannot use a phone.
The original has multiple errors: 'what this is' and 'what' are incorrect references — use 'one' or 'a watch'. Use present simple 'makes people look' for general truth. 'Wanted a business situation' is incorrect; use 'in some business situations'. Maintain tense consistency and correct word order. Also add commas for clarity.
