Friends— Part 1 Report

Suggestion: Make your answer more concise and natural: start with a clear topic sentence, then give one or two specific supporting details, using linking words. Avoid repetition and incorrect phrasing (e.g., "more fun than before" not "more funny than past").

Example: Yes — it's very different now. Previously we met at school and in classrooms; now we usually meet at cafés, cinemas or art events, which is more relaxed and fun. For example, last week we met at a local gallery and then had coffee together.

Suggestion: Give a direct topic sentence and then explain with clear reasons and one example. Reduce fillers (uh, um) and avoid repetition. Use linking words (because, so, for example) to organize ideas.

Example: It depends on the purpose of the meeting. If we need to study or work, quiet places like libraries are suitable; however, if we want to relax and chat, cafés or parks are better. For example, I wouldn't bring friends to the library if we plan to talk.

Suggestion: Answer directly, then give two clear reasons with linking words. Avoid unfinished sentences and repetition. Use precise phrases ("share experiences", "play group games").

Example: I prefer spending time with a group of friends because we can share different experiences and catch up on our weeks. Also, we enjoy group games and activities, which are more lively and fun than one-on-one meetings.

Suggestion: Start with a direct yes/no and then describe a typical example with specific details. Remove hesitations and check grammar ("I invite my girlfriends"; "cook special meals").

Example: Yes, I do invite friends to my home sometimes. We usually have a "girls' night" where we cook a special meal, watch a new series on Netflix and talk about our experiences and relationships — it's always fun and relaxing.

Suggestion: Give a clear opinion first, then support it with specific reasons and an example. Fix grammar ("friends play a crucial role"), avoid trailing off, and use linking words like "because" and "for example".

Example: Friends are very important to me because they provide emotional support and practical help. For example, when I feel exhausted or stressed, I talk to my friends or go out with them, which helps me feel better.

Suggestion: Answer directly, then give a typical frequency and two specific activities. Remove fillers and correct phrasing ("on weekends", "popular café in San Diego"), and be concise.

Example: Yes, I usually go out with my friends on weekends. We often meet at a popular café in San Diego where we play games, catch up about our week and relax together.

Suggestion: Begin with a clear topic sentence naming the place, then add two specific details about why you like it. Fix grammar ("a café called Dubar") and avoid phrases like "It's so funny" — use "It's very enjoyable."

Example: We usually meet at a café called Dubar, which has excellent coffee and croissants. We like it because it's cozy, so we can play games and catch up about work and our relationships.

Suggestion: Structure the answer: start with a topic sentence listing main activities, then give one or two details in order using linking words (first, then, after that). Avoid hesitations and slightly incorrect collocations ("eat pizza" rather than "drink pizza").

Example: Usually we start by eating pizza and drinking wine. Then we play games and talk about our relationships and lifestyles, and afterwards we sometimes scroll through Instagram together.

Suggestion: Answer directly and give specific details about your relationship and one example that shows depth. Correct phrasing ("a best friend called Norin", "we met at university", "I rely on her and trust her").

Example: Yes, my best friend Norin and I met at university and have been close ever since. We have a strong relationship — for instance, whenever I need advice or someone to talk to about my personal life, I always rely on and trust her.

× Yes, it's completely different from past because in the past we met each other at a school or in the classrooms, but now we go to the cafes and cinemas and art events and it's more funny than past.

✓ Yes, it's completely different from the past because we used to meet at school or in classrooms, but now we go to cafes, cinemas, and art events, and it's more fun than before.

Tense and word choice errors: the sentence mixes present and past improperly. Use 'the past' with 'from the past' and 'used to' for habitual past actions. 'In a school' is unnecessary; use 'at school' or 'school' and 'classrooms' without 'the'. 'More funny than past' is awkward; use 'more fun than before.' Also punctuation and article use corrected.

× We can see each.

✓ We can see each other.

Missing particle: English reciprocal expression uses 'each other' not 'each.' Add 'other' to form correct reciprocal pronoun.

× I think it depends on our purpose because, uh, when we want quiet place to work or study, uh, it's not suitable, uh, for us to go there with our friend or hanging out with our, at our friend and there, uh, we uh, can choose cafes depends on our purpose.

✓ I think it depends on our purpose because when we want a quiet place to work or study, it's not suitable to go there with friends or to hang out with a friend, and then we can choose cafes depending on our purpose.

Multiple preposition and article errors: add article 'a' before 'quiet place'. Use 'go there with friends' (plural) or 'a friend' consistently. 'Hanging out with our, at our friend' is incorrect; use 'to hang out with a friend.' 'Depends on' should be 'depending on.' Clean up conjunctions and remove filler words.

× And personally I prefer a group of friends because we can talk to each other about our experience and and talk about our week and we can play a group games together that has a higher quality than.

✓ Personally, I prefer a group of friends because we can talk to each other about our experiences and our week, and we can play group games together, which are higher quality.

Sentence fragments and noun number errors: 'experience' should be plural 'experiences.' Remove duplicate 'and.' 'Play a group games' is incorrect; use 'play group games' (no article, plural). The clause 'that has a higher quality than' is incomplete; revise to 'which are higher quality.'

× And yes, sometimes I in invite my girls, uh, into my house and we have a girls night together.

✓ Yes, sometimes I invite my girlfriends into my house and we have a girls' night together.

Extra words and possession: remove incorrect 'in'. Use 'girlfriends' or 'friends' instead of 'girls.' Use the possessive form 'girls' night' (girls'). Modal issue minimal but classified as modal/form usage of verbs; main fixes were word choice and possessive punctuation.

× We cook a special meals and watch a new series on Netflix and uh, talk about our experiences and our uh, relationships.

✓ We cook special meals and watch a new series on Netflix, and we talk about our experiences and our relationships.

Article and noun agreement: 'a special meals' mixes singular article with plural noun; use 'special meals' or 'a special meal.' Also add 'we' for parallel structure. Punctuation improved.

× I think a friend and make a crucial role in our life.

✓ I think friends play a crucial role in our lives.

Pronoun and subject errors: 'a friend and make' is ungrammatical. Use plural 'friends' with verb 'play' for agreement and 'lives' for possessive plural. Correct subject-verb agreement.

× And personally, my friend, uh, play an active role because whenever I exhausted or, uh, I need to talk about something, I go out with my friends and it's.

✓ Personally, my friends play an active role because whenever I am exhausted or need to talk about something, I go out with them.

Tense and completeness: 'my friend play' requires plural 'friends' or 'my friend plays'. 'Whenever I exhausted' needs auxiliary 'am' for adjective. The sentence ended abruptly; complete thought with 'I go out with them.' Remove filler words.

× And yes, I, uh, usually go with my go out with my friend at the weekend and we go to the, uh, popular cafe in the San Diego Straits and we have some quality time.

✓ Yes, I usually go out with my friend at the weekend, and we go to a popular cafe in the San Diego Straits and have some quality time.

Redundant words and article errors: remove duplicate 'go' and filler 'uh.' Use 'a popular cafe' (indefinite article). Maintain present simple 'usually go out.'

× And we have a favorite cafe that called Dubar.

✓ We have a favorite cafe called Dubar.

Article and relative clause: 'that called' should be reduced to 'called' after the noun. Remove unnecessary 'a' before 'favorite' if keeping 'a favorite cafe called Dubar' is acceptable; both are fine but simpler without 'that.'

× It has the best coffees and croissants.

✓ It has the best coffee and croissants.

Countable/uncountable noun usage: 'coffee' is typically uncountable when referring to the product offered; use singular 'coffee' rather than 'coffees.'

× Usually we drink wines and pizza and after that we play a game and during the game we talk about our relationships and our, uh, lifestyles and after that, uh, we scroll on Instagram.

✓ Usually we drink wine and eat pizza, and after that we play a game. During the game we talk about our relationships and lifestyles, and afterwards we scroll through Instagram.

Preposition and noun choice: 'drink wines' should be 'drink wine' (uncountable) or 'drink wines' only if tasting different wines; 'eat pizza' not 'drink pizza.' Use 'scroll through Instagram' rather than 'scroll on.' Add commas and split into clearer sentences.

× Yes, I have a best friend that called Norin.

✓ Yes, I have a best friend called Norin.

Relative clause and pronoun: Use 'called Norin' rather than 'that called Norin.' 'That' is unnecessary and awkward here.

× We met each other at the university and after that we have a strong relationship together and whenever I need to talk about my life to someone, I rely on her and and trust on her.

✓ We met each other at university and after that we developed a strong relationship, and whenever I need to talk about my life to someone, I rely on her and trust her.

Tense consistency and verb choice: 'met' is correct past, but 'have a strong relationship' should be 'developed a strong relationship' or 'have had a strong relationship since then.' Remove redundant 'together.' Also, 'trust on her' is incorrect; use 'trust her.' Remove duplicate 'and.'
