Memory— Part 1 Report

Suggestion: Be concise and grammatical: start with a clear topic sentence, then add one specific supporting detail using linking words. Avoid vague phrases and incorrect tense/form. For example, correct grammar (I am good at memorizing things) and give a clear example (I could remember names and dates from school).

Example: Yes, I am quite good at memorising things. For example, when I was a child I could remember classmates’ names and birthdays easily, which helped me organise small parties for them.

Suggestion: Answer directly and complete the story with clear sequencing words. Use correct perfect/simple past and finish the consequence. Be specific about what happened and what you did afterwards.

Example: Yes, I have. A few years ago I missed an important test because I forgot the schedule. After I realised, I contacted my teacher and explained the situation, then I arranged to take a makeup test.

Suggestion: Give a clear topic sentence and explain with specific details and cause-effect language. Fix grammar (remove extra articles) and use linking words like because or so to show logic. Be concise (max 4–5 sentences).

Example: I need to remember my experiment schedule every day because running one task late can delay the whole project. Therefore I plan my steps in advance and allow buffer time between procedures.

Suggestion: Structure the answer: start with a topic sentence describing your methods, then give specific examples and sequence words. Correct pluralisation and use concise phrasing. Mention concrete tools (notes, calendar, alarms) and how you rely on them.

Example: I usually write important tasks in a notebook or enter them in my phone calendar and set alarms. For instance, I put my project deadlines in the calendar and set reminders one day and one hour before, so I never miss them.

× Yes, I think I am a good at memorizing something.

✓ Yes, I think I am good at memorizing things.

The phrase 'a good' is incorrect because 'good' is an adjective modifying ability and does not need the article 'a'; also 'something' is vague—use plural 'things' to match general ability. Improve by removing the article and using 'things' when speaking generally: 'good at memorizing things.'

× For example, I remember everything in my young.

✓ For example, I remember everything from my childhood.

The phrase 'in my young' is ungrammatical and fails to convey time. Use the noun 'childhood' or the phrase 'when I was young' to indicate past period. Also 'remember' can remain present to express lasting memory. Suggest: 'I remember everything from my childhood.'

× So when I was young I used to be cry when I faced the forts.

✓ When I was young I used to cry when I faced difficulties.

'Used to be cry' mixes 'used to' with passive 'be' incorrectly; the correct pattern is 'used to' + base verb: 'used to cry.' 'Faced the forts' is unclear—likely 'fears' or 'difficulties.' Choose a clear noun like 'difficulties.' Suggest: 'I used to cry when I faced difficulties.'

× Yes, I have ever forgotten something important.

✓ Yes, I have forgotten something important.

'Ever' is incorrectly placed with present perfect here; in affirmative sentences 'ever' is usually used in questions or negatives. Remove 'ever' to make a natural affirmative present perfect sentence: 'I have forgotten something important.'

× For example, a few years ago I forgot the test schedule.

✓ For example, a few years ago I forgot the test schedule.

This sentence is grammatically correct but contextually incomplete in the transcript because the following sentence is fragmented. No grammatical change needed; keep as is.

× So after realizing that I just to my.

✓ So after realizing that, I immediately went to my professor/office to sort it out.

The original is incomplete and lacks a main verb and object ('just to my' is fragmentary). Provide a complete clause with a past-tense main verb to match 'a few years ago.' Use a clear objective phrase such as 'went to my professor' or 'went to the office' and an infinitive phrase 'to sort it out.'

× I need to remember the my experimental schedule because if I perform the one schedule other everything may be delayed in my experiment.

✓ I need to remember my experimental schedule because if I follow the wrong schedule, everything in my experiment may be delayed.

The sentence has multiple article and word-choice errors: 'the my' duplicates articles, use 'my' alone; 'perform the one schedule other' is ungrammatical—use 'follow the wrong schedule' or 'follow a different schedule'; word order 'other everything' is incorrect—use 'everything in my experiment.' Also adjust modal/possibility phrasing to 'may be delayed.'

× To remember important thing, I usually write thing on my note or my phone, so and that day I set the alarm to remind that yeah.

✓ To remember important things, I usually write them in my notebook or on my phone, and that day I set an alarm to remind me.

Use plural 'important things' when generalizing; 'write thing' needs plural and a pronoun object 'write them'; preposition should be 'in my notebook' or 'on my phone'; 'set the alarm to remind that' is incorrect—use 'set an alarm to remind me.' Remove filler 'yeah.' Use consistent verb forms and objects.

× So based on that I remember important thing.

✓ So based on that, I remember important things.

Use plural 'things' when speaking generally. Also add a comma after 'based on that' for clarity. Present simple 'remember' is acceptable to express habit. Suggest: 'So based on that, I remember important things.'
