Memory— Part 1 Report

Suggestion: Be more concise and fluent: start with a clear topic sentence, avoid filler words (uh), and use linking words to contrast (e.g., "However" or "but"). Provide one brief example to support your point. Keep to 2–3 sentences.

Example: I am good at memorising things that interest me, but I struggle with subjects like math and physics. For example, I can quickly remember historical facts because I enjoy reading about history, whereas formulas in physics take me longer to learn.

Suggestion: Organise your answer with a clear past-tense narrative: state what happened, why it happened, and the result. Use correct tense and avoid repeating words. Keep it to 2–3 sentences and use linking words like "so" and "as a result."

Example: Yes, I once forgot the day of my flight home. I thought it was Tuesday but it was actually Wednesday, so I missed the flight and had to rebook it as a result.

Suggestion: Give a clear topic sentence and list specific daily items using linking words (for example, "for instance", "also"). Use precise vocabulary (e.g., "schedule", "meals", "appointments") and avoid vague or confusing phrases. Limit to 2–3 concise sentences.

Example: In daily life I need to remember my schedule and appointments. For instance, I keep track of what I will eat, any meetings with friends or family, and the study topics I must cover each day.

Suggestion: Start with a direct topic sentence explaining your method, then give a specific example of the tool or routine you use. Avoid repetition and awkward phrasing; use linking words like "for example" or "for instance." Keep to 2–3 sentences.

Example: I usually write important things down in a small notebook. For example, I note appointments with my teacher or personal plans so I don't forget them.

× Well, I think it really depends whether this issue matches my much uh, interest or not, because I will always memorize the uh, knowledge or uh, kind of things in some specific field pretty fast, while in some math, physics, this kind of science subject pretty slow because I don't find it really fun.

✓ Well, I think it really depends on whether this topic matches my interests or not, because I always memorize knowledge or things in specific fields pretty fast, while for subjects like math or physics, which are science subjects, I learn more slowly because I don't find them fun.

The original uses inconsistent tenses and incorrect verb forms (e.g., 'depends whether' should be 'depends on whether'; 'my much interest' is ungrammatical; 'I will always memorize' is inappropriate present reference so use simple present 'I always memorize'; 'in some math, physics, this kind of science subject pretty slow' is fragmented and missing verbs). Suggestion: use 'depends on whether', use plural 'interests', use simple present for habitual actions, and restructure clauses for clarity.

× Well now what's just happened on my journey last time I want to go to my hometown at Tuesday but I forgot it.

✓ Well, what just happened on my last trip was that I wanted to go to my hometown on Tuesday, but I forgot.

The sentence mixes present and past forms and has incorrect prepositions and article usage ('at Tuesday' should be 'on Tuesday'; 'last time' should be 'my last trip'; 'I want' should be past 'I wanted'). Use past tense for a completed past event, use 'on' with days, and place verbs in a consistent past narrative.

× I just remember the day is Wednesday so I just missed the flight and we can just rebook the flight because there is no other option for us.

✓ I only remembered that the day was Wednesday, so I missed the flight and we had to rebook it because there was no other option for us.

Mixes present ('remember', 'is') with past events; use past tense 'remembered' and 'was' for a past situation. Also 'can just rebook' should match past necessity 'had to rebook'. Use consistent past tense when describing past events.

× Well, we have to remember someday to routine just like we need to remember and what we are going to eat or what disappointment we have with our friend or family.

✓ Well, we have to remember our daily routine, such as what we are going to eat or any disappointments we have with our friends or family.

Incorrect preposition and phrasing: 'someday to routine' is ungrammatical; use 'daily routine' or 'our routine'. 'Our friend' should be plural 'friends' when speaking generally. Also simplify 'just like we need to remember and what we are going to eat' to 'such as what we are going to eat'.

× That is really important.

✓ That is really important.

This sentence is grammatically correct; it uses present tense appropriately to state a general truth.

× And the curriculum I need to cover today is also a thing worth remembering in my daily life.

✓ And the curriculum I need to cover today is also something worth remembering in my daily life.

Minor word choice: 'a thing' is colloquial and awkward here; 'something' fits better. The tense is appropriate (present for planned today). Keep sentence structure but prefer 'something'.

× Well, usually I will take them down just like in a note.

✓ Well, usually I write them down in a note.

'Take them down' is understandable but 'write them down' is more natural; also 'will' is unnecessary for habitual actions—use simple present 'I write'. 'Just like in a note' is awkward; 'in a note' or 'in my notebook' is clearer.

× I have a booklet just written all of the important things in my daily life, just like and having an appointment with my teacher or a date with my boyfriend.

✓ I have a booklet in which I write all the important things in my daily life, such as appointments with my teacher or dates with my boyfriend.

Problems include article and word order: 'just written all of the important things' should be 'in which I write all the important things'; 'just like and having' is ungrammatical—use 'such as'. Use plural 'appointments' and 'dates' for general items. Prefer present simple for habitual action 'I write'.

× And that is pretty important for me. So I will take them down so that I will never escape them.

✓ And that is very important to me, so I write them down so that I never forget them.

'Escape them' is incorrect collocation; use 'forget them'. For habitual behavior, use simple present 'I write' and 'I never forget' (or 'so that I don't forget them'). Also 'pretty important for me' -> 'very important to me' is more natural.
