Memory— Part 1 Informe

Sugerencia: Give a clear topic sentence, remove hesitations, and add one concise supporting detail with linking words. Use correct grammar for past events and avoid redundancy. For example, say you’re not good at memorising, then briefly give a specific illustrative incident and its consequence.

Ejemplo: No, I'm not very good at memorising things. For example, once I met a colleague and forgot his name, so I awkwardly just greeted him instead of using his name. This made the conversation feel a bit uncomfortable.

Sugerencia: Start with a direct yes/no or short topic sentence, correct past tense and word order, and give a specific consequence. Use linking words like 'for example' or 'once' to structure the answer and keep it to two or three sentences.

Ejemplo: Yes, I once forgot something very important. For example, I went to the airport without my ID card, so I couldn't check in and had to miss my flight.

Sugerencia: Begin with a clear topic sentence, then list two or three specific daily tasks using parallel structure and linking words like 'for example' or 'such as'. Avoid vague phrases like 'and so on' and correct collocations (e.g., 'feed my cat' not 'clean my cat').

Ejemplo: I need to remember several daily tasks. For example, I have to feed and clean my cat every morning, and I also check the stock market updates each day to follow my investments.

Sugerencia: Give a clear topic sentence, then list methods in a natural, grammatically correct way using linking words like 'first', 'second', 'finally'. Use precise phrases (e.g., 'set an alarm', 'write notes', 'use my phone calendar') and add a brief reason or example for one method to show effectiveness.

Ejemplo: I use three methods to remember important things. First, I set an alarm for specific times; second, I write notes on paper for quick reminders; and finally, I add events to my phone calendar so I get notifications before important appointments.

× No, I'm not uh, there's always cause umm, some awkward time.

✓ No, I'm not; there is always an awkward moment.

The original is a run-on with unclear clauses and fillers. Use a clear main clause and correct connector: 'there's always cause umm, some awkward time' is ungrammatical. Replace fillers and restructure to 'there is always an awkward moment' for clarity and grammatical correctness. Suggestion: pause to think and remove filler words.

× Such as I when I met my colleague, I forgot his name.

✓ For example, when I met my colleague, I forgot his name.

Beginning with 'Such as' is incorrect to introduce a full clause. Use 'For example' or 'For instance' to introduce a specific example. Also remove extra 'I' after 'Such as'. Ensure correct clause order: 'When I met my colleague' then main clause.

× Just have to say hi to him instead of call his name.

✓ I just had to say hi to him instead of calling him by name.

Missing subject and incorrect verb forms: 'Just have to' needs a subject and tense; use 'I just had to' for past context. 'Instead of call his name' requires gerund or 'calling him by name'. Use 'calling him by name' for natural phrasing.

× Funny thing is I remember the bad time I forgotten something important.

✓ The funny thing is I remember a time when I forgot something important.

Mixes present ('remember') with incorrect past participle 'forgotten' used incorrectly. Use simple past 'forgot' to describe a past event. Also include 'a time when' for natural expression and add 'The' before 'funny thing'.

× I I've ever that time is I when I went to the airport I forgot went there with my ID card.

✓ The time I remember is when I went to the airport and forgot to bring my ID card.

This sentence contains multiple errors: extraneous words ('I I've ever that time is I'), incorrect verb pattern 'forgot went there with', and missing 'to bring'. Restructure to 'The time I remember is when I went to the airport and forgot to bring my ID card.' Use 'forgot to bring' for omitted action.

× There are many things I need to remember in my daily life such as I need to remember clean my cat a little and remember check the stock stock market every day and so on.

✓ There are many things I need to remember in my daily life, such as cleaning my cat a little and checking the stock market every day.

After 'such as' use gerunds for parallel activities: 'cleaning' and 'checking'. Remove repeated words ('stock stock') and redundant 'I need to remember'. Keep parallel structure for clarity.

× I have three ways to remember important things. 1 is set alarm, second is write down on the note loads, third is write down on phone calendars, phone's calendar.

✓ I have three ways to remember important things. First, I set an alarm; second, I write notes; third, I write events on my phone calendar.

List items must be parallel and use correct articles and forms: 'set alarm' needs 'set an alarm'; 'write down on the note loads' is ungrammatical—use 'write notes' or 'write things down in a notebook'; 'write down on phone calendars, phone's calendar' is redundant—use 'write events on my phone calendar'. Use parallel structure and correct articles.
