Opportunities— Part 1 Report

Suggestion: Your answer has some relevant ideas but is unclear, ungrammatical and repetitive. To improve: 1) Start with a clear topic sentence that directly answers the question (e.g., “Yes, I did.”). 2) Follow with one or two specific supporting details (what activities, when, or who encouraged you). 3) Use linking words (for example, “for example,” “because,” or “so”) to connect ideas. 4) Keep sentences short and grammatically correct—avoid extra filler phrases. Practice by planning a brief structure: answer → one detail → one reason or result. Aim for 2–4 sentences and relevant vocabulary (e.g., activities, clubs, lessons, encouraged, learned).

Example: Yes, I did. For example, I joined a local soccer club and a school art class when I was eight. These activities helped me make friends and learn teamwork because the coaches encouraged us to work together. As a result, I became more confident and interested in trying other new things.

Suggestion: Your answer agrees with the question but is vague and grammatically incorrect. To improve: 1) Start with a clear opinion sentence (e.g., “Yes, I believe people should try many different things.”). 2) Give one or two clear reasons with examples (use linking words like “because” or “for example”). 3) Use precise vocabulary (e.g., develop skills, gain experience, personal growth). 4) Keep sentences concise and avoid repetition. Practice forming a reason and an example in 2–3 sentences to reach coherence and clarity.

Example: Yes, I believe people should try many different things because it helps them discover their interests and learn new skills. For example, taking short courses in cooking or volunteering can teach practical abilities and build confidence. In this way, trying different activities supports personal growth and future opportunities.

× Yes, I have any opportunity to take part in the new activity as a child.

✓ Yes, I had opportunities to take part in new activities as a child.

The student used 'have' (present) but the question asks about the past; use past tense 'had'. 'Any' is incorrect in this affirmative past statement; use 'opportunities' (plural) to match the intended meaning. Also 'the new activity' should be plural and non-specific: 'new activities'. Suggestion: use past tense and plural nouns when referring to several experiences in childhood.

× Yeah, I have to growing up with the lesson that I had to study in that when the young people when I was child, it's not hard to think too much of the lesson that we have.

✓ When I was growing up, I had to study many lessons, and as a child it was not hard to think much about those lessons.

This sentence has multiple structure and tense problems. 'I have to growing up' mixes present and progressive forms; change to past progressive or past simple: 'When I was growing up'. 'I had to study' is correct past but placed awkwardly; reorder for clarity. 'When the young people when I was child' is redundant and incorrect; use 'as a child' or 'when I was a child'. 'It's not hard to think too much of the lesson that we have' is unclear and contradictory; intended meaning likely 'it was not hard to think much about those lessons' so use past tense 'was' and plural 'lessons'. Suggestion: divide into simpler clauses, keep past tense consistent, and use 'as a child' for that time reference.

× Yes, I think people try as many different things as they can.

✓ Yes, I think people should try as many different things as they can.

The student used simple present 'think people try' which is grammatical but changes meaning. The examiner asked whether people should try; responding with 'think people should try' expresses recommendation and fits modal usage. According to the provided list, convert to correct modal expression. Suggestion: add 'should' to convey advice.

× It's because they have to doing the thing along or more of self to make or grow up to make things it clean, to making you feel it has to grow up with the strong strong guest one.

✓ It's because they have to do things on their own to develop, which helps them grow stronger and feel more confident.

The phrase 'have to doing' incorrectly combines 'have to' with a gerund; after 'have to' use the base verb: 'have to do'. 'Along or more of self' should be 'on their own' (correct preposition and pronoun). 'To make or grow up to make things it clean' is ungrammatical and unclear; convey the intended idea with 'to develop' or 'to grow'. 'To making you feel it has to grow up with the strong strong guest one' mixes forms and repeats words; replace with 'which helps them grow stronger and feel more confident.' Suggestions: after 'have to' use base verb; use clear noun phrases like 'on their own' and avoid redundant adjectives.
