Have you ever bought shoes online?
Score: 68.0Suggestion: Câu trả lời khá rõ ràng nhưng cần sửa ngữ pháp và sắp xếp ý mạch lạc hơn (ví dụ: 'try new them on' -> 'try them on'). Dùng liên từ hợp lý để nối ý (because, so) và cung cấp một chi tiết cụ thể duy nhất về lý do ưu tiên mua tại cửa hàng.
Example: No, I have never bought shoes online. I prefer shopping in physical stores because I can try them on to check the fit and comfort, and I can be sure about the color and size.
How much money do you usually spend on shoes?
Score: 55.0Suggestion: Câu trả lời bị lẫn lộn và có nhiều lỗi (số tiền không rõ 'one or $200', từ thừa 'speakers', 'dress lets' không phù hợp). Cần cho con số cụ thể, diễn đạt rõ ràng lý do chi tiêu và nêu ví dụ thương hiệu một cách chính xác. Giữ tối đa 3 câu, tránh từ lặp và lỗi ngữ pháp.

Which do you prefer, fashionable shoes or comfortable shoes?
Score: 60.0Suggestion: Ý chính tốt nhưng có lỗi ngữ pháp và câu cuối bị bỏ dở ('thinking about being' không hoàn chỉnh). Nên viết câu chủ đề ngắn, nêu hai lý do cụ thể (sức khỏe/hiệu suất công việc) và kết thúc câu đầy đủ. Tránh lặp từ và dùng linking words như 'because' hoặc 'so'.
Example: I prefer comfortable shoes because I wear them every day and uncomfortable or stiff shoes often make my feet sore. Comfortable shoes help me feel confident at work and let me concentrate on my tasks instead of my discomfort.
× I don't buy shoes very often, I usually replace them only when my old ones are went out or not longer fit me.
✓ I don't buy shoes very often; I usually replace them only when my old ones are worn out or no longer fit me.
'Went out' is incorrect for describing worn condition; the correct adjective is 'worn out' (past participle used as adjective). 'Not longer fit' has word order and missing word: use 'no longer fit'. Also a semicolon or period needed to join independent clauses. Suggestion: use 'worn out' and 'no longer fit' for clarity and correctness.
× No, I have never bought shoes online.
✓ No, I have never bought shoes online.
This sentence is correct. 'Have never bought' correctly uses present perfect to describe experience up to now. No change needed.
× I prefer to buy shoes in a physical store because I try new them on to check and fit and comfort so and I can be sure about the color and the size.
✓ I prefer to buy shoes in a physical store because I try them on to check the fit and comfort, and I can be sure about the color and the size.
Errors: extra word 'new' is unnecessary and mispositioned; pronoun placement should be 'try them on'. Word order 'check and fit and comfort' is incorrect—use 'check the fit and comfort'. 'So and' is ungrammatical; replace with 'and'. Suggestion: remove 'new', place pronoun after 'try', and use correct noun phrases 'the fit and comfort'.
× Well, I usually spend about one or $200 on shoe speakers that that dress lets me buy a pair that fits me well and lasts a long time.
✓ Well, I usually spend about one or two hundred dollars on shoes so that I can buy a pair that fits me well and lasts a long time.
Multiple issues: 'one or $200' is incorrect quantifier expression—use 'one or two hundred dollars' or 'about $100 or $200'; 'shoe speakers' is nonsense—should be 'shoes'; duplicate 'that that'; 'dress lets me' is wrong phrase—use 'so that I can'. Suggestion: state amount clearly as 'one or two hundred dollars' and use clear purpose clause 'so that I can buy...'.
× I opted to choose from well known brands like Uniqlo or Zara for their quality and style.
✓ I choose from well-known brands like Uniqlo or Zara for their quality and style.
Context of general preference requires simple present 'I choose' not past 'I opted'. Hyphenate 'well-known'. Suggestion: use simple present for habitual actions.
× I prefer comfortable shoes because I wear them everyday and uncomfortable fresh professional shoes often make me feel sore and tired.
✓ I prefer comfortable shoes because I wear them every day, and uncomfortable, stiff professional shoes often make me feel sore and tired.
'everyday' vs 'every day': use 'every day' (two words) for frequency. 'Uncomfortable fresh professional shoes' is awkward—likely meant 'stiff professional shoes' or 'new professional shoes'; add commas between adjectives and choose correct adjective order. Suggestion: use 'every day' and reorder/adapt adjectives for clarity.
× Comfortable shoes help me feel confident when I work and let me focus on working instead of thinking about being.
✓ Comfortable shoes help me feel confident when I work and let me focus on my work instead of thinking about my discomfort.
Sentence ends with 'thinking about being' which is incomplete. Replace with a clear noun phrase like 'my discomfort' or 'how uncomfortable they are'. Also 'focus on working' is acceptable but 'focus on my work' is clearer. Suggestion: complete the idea with a noun and use parallel structure.
