Do you think singing can bring happiness to people?

Yes, singing affect the mood of the people and there has been a theory proven on this that songs of different melodies have different impact on people. Like if the person is listening to upbeat and happy song, his mood will lift and he will feel more happy whereas the person is singing uh listening sad he will feed.
Do you like singing? Why?
分数: 55.0建议: Be concise and grammatical: start with a clear topic sentence, correct grammar (subject-verb agreement, avoid extra words), and give one brief reason plus a contrasting preference. Use linking words like 'because' and 'however' correctly. Reduce filler sounds (umm).
示例: No, I don't really enjoy singing because I have a rather heavy, unmelodious voice, so I don't feel confident performing. However, I prefer dancing because it lets me express myself without relying on my voice.
Have you ever learnt how to sing?
分数: 60.0建议: Organize answer with a clear topic sentence and two specific supporting details. Use past tense consistently and correct collocations (e.g., 'learned to sing', 'group singing', 'lyrics and chorus' not 'course'). Avoid repetition. Use linking words like 'because' or 'so'.
示例: Yes. In 10th grade I had to learn to sing for an inter-class group competition. I learned the lyrics and the chorus, practised harmonies with my teammates, and contributed to arranging the song so we could perform together.
Who do you want to sing for?
分数: 52.0建议: Answer the question directly (who you would sing for) with a topic sentence, then give one brief reason or example. Avoid asking new questions back to the examiner and reduce fillers. Use correct vocabulary ('group singing', 'synchronized' not 'syncing').
示例: I would sing for my classmates and teachers at school events because singing in a group helps build confidence and teamwork. For example, I sang with my classmates in high-school competitions to support each other and practise cooperation.
Do you think singing can bring happiness to people?
分数: 58.0建议: Begin with a clear opinion sentence, then give two specific supporting points with correct grammar and vocabulary (e.g., 'affects', 'melodies', 'listening to'). Use linking words such as 'for example' and 'whereas'. Avoid incomplete sentences and pronoun errors. Conclude briefly if possible.
示例: Yes, I think singing and music can affect people's moods. For example, upbeat songs often lift listeners' spirits and make them feel happier, whereas slow, sad melodies can make people feel reflective or down.
× No, I don't like singing because I don't have that melodious voice to be a singer or to sing.
✓ No, I don't like singing because I don't have a melodious voice to be a singer.
The sentence is wordy and slightly ungrammatical. Remove redundant 'to sing' and change 'that melodious voice' to 'a melodious voice' (article error and natural phrasing). Keep tense and meaning.
× My I have a very heavy voice so singing doesn't suits me.
✓ I have a very heavy voice, so singing doesn't suit me.
Remove extraneous 'My' and correct verb agreement: 'doesn't suit' (not 'suits') because 'does' requires base verb. Also add a comma before the coordinating conjunction for clarity.
× Umm, however, I prefer dancing over singing.
✓ However, I prefer dancing to singing.
Use the correct preposition 'to' after 'prefer' when comparing two activities. 'However' can replace 'Umm, however' and avoid filler words in formal answers.
× Yes, I remember when I was in 10th grade, there was interclass singing competition where you have to do group singing.
✓ Yes, I remember when I was in 10th grade; there was an interclass singing competition where we had to do group singing.
Use past tense consistently: 'we had to' not 'you have to'. Add the article 'an' before 'interclass singing competition'. Change pronoun to 'we' to match first-person narration.
× So in that it was compulsory to take part.
✓ So it was compulsory to take part in it.
Reorder to natural English: place object after verb. 'In that' is awkward; 'in it' or 'to take part' placement corrected.
× I was the part of the group and so I had to learn about lyrics and the course along with composition of the song for singing.
✓ I was part of the group, so I had to learn the lyrics and the chorus, along with the song's composition for the performance.
Remove 'the' before 'part', use 'lyrics' and 'chorus' (or 'course' was likely intended as 'chorus'), clarify 'song's composition'. This fixes pronoun/article misuse and awkward phrasing.
× I don't usually do singing, but I have done singing twice or thrice when I was in high school.
✓ I don't usually sing, but I sang two or three times when I was in high school.
Use verb 'sing' instead of 'do singing'. Use simple past 'sang' for completed actions. Use 'two or three' instead of 'twice or thrice' for natural English.
× Umm, are there regular competitions held in our school in which we have to do group syncing?
✓ Are there regular competitions held at our school in which we have to do group singing?
Use 'at' for locations like school. 'Syncing' is wrong; use 'singing'. Also remove filler 'Umm'.
× The competitions were uh, done to build confidence and uh, teamwork.
✓ The competitions were held to build confidence and encourage teamwork.
Use 'held to' and parallel structure: 'build confidence and encourage teamwork.' Remove fillers 'uh'.
× Yes, singing affect the mood of the people and there has been a theory proven on this that songs of different melodies have different impact on people.
✓ Yes, singing affects people's moods, and there is evidence that songs with different melodies have different impacts on listeners.
Subject-verb agreement: 'singing affects' (third-person singular). Use possessive 'people's moods' and 'there is evidence' instead of 'there has been a theory proven'. Use plural 'impacts' to agree with 'different'.
× Like if the person is listening to upbeat and happy song, his mood will lift and he will feel more happy whereas the person is singing uh listening sad he will feed.
✓ For example, if a person listens to an upbeat, happy song, their mood will lift and they will feel happier; whereas if a person listens to a sad song, they will feel down.
Use gender-neutral pronoun 'they' instead of 'his'. Correct verb forms: 'listens' not 'is listening to' for general statements, 'feel happier' not 'feel more happy'. Replace awkward fragment 'the person is singing uh listening sad he will feed' with 'if a person listens to a sad song, they will feel down.'
