Memory— Part 1 Informe

Sugerencia: Be more natural and concise. Start with a clear topic sentence that answers the question, then add one or two specific supporting details using correct tense and linking words. Avoid repetition and filler words (uh, um). Correct grammar (e.g., “when I was a child,” “it was very interesting” or “it felt dangerous”).

Ejemplo: Yes, I’m quite good at memorising things. For example, I clearly remember a childhood trip to a famous cave in Australia because the guided tour and the narrow passages made a strong impression on me.

Sugerencia: Answer directly and give one clear example with reasons. Use past tense for past events and avoid trailing off. Replace vague statements with specifics (e.g., missed deadlines, forgotten assignments). Keep it to two or three sentences and use linking words like “for example” or “because”.

Ejemplo: Yes, I have. For example, when I was at school I often forgot to submit homework on time because I didn’t write deadlines down. As a result, I missed marks and now I use a planner to avoid the same mistakes.

Sugerencia: Give a clear topic sentence listing the key things you must remember (appointments, tasks, hygiene). Then add a specific method you use, with linking words to connect ideas. Use correct collocations (e.g., “keep a monthly schedule,” “follow it carefully”).

Ejemplo: I need to remember daily tasks such as appointments, work deadlines and personal routines like brushing my teeth. Therefore, I keep a monthly schedule and check it every evening so I don’t miss anything.

Sugerencia: Provide a concise method-focused answer: start with a topic sentence stating your main strategy, then give one or two specific techniques (e.g., phone reminders, to-do lists). Use simple, correct phrases and avoid repetition. Use linking words like “for example” or “also”.

Ejemplo: I use a combination of a monthly schedule and daily reminders. For example, I set alarms on my phone for important tasks and review my to-do list every morning so I stay organised.

× I remember everything when I was child.

✓ I remembered everything when I was a child.

The sentence refers to a past time so the verb should be in the past tense (remembered). Also the noun phrase needs an article: 'a child'. Use 'remembered' to match past context and add 'a' before 'child'.

× When I was child, I remember that I have a visit to The Cave in Australia.

✓ When I was a child, I remembered that I had a visit to the cave in Australia.

This sentence mixes past and present tenses. Use past tense consistently: 'remembered' and 'had'. Also add the article 'a' before 'child' and use 'the cave' instead of capitalized 'The Cave' unless it is a proper name; if it is a proper name, keep capitalization but still use past tense.

× It was very interested and, uh, very dangerous in the same time.

✓ It was very interesting and, uh, very dangerous at the same time.

Use the adjective 'interesting' to describe something (not 'interested', which describes a person). The correct phrase is 'at the same time' not 'in the same time'.

× I remember everything.

✓ I remembered everything.

Within the context of describing past events, use past tense 'remembered' rather than present 'remember'. Keep tense consistent when narrating past experiences.

× Absolutely yes. I always forget the important details in my life, specifically umm in my school life.

✓ Absolutely. I always forgot important details in my life, especially during my school years.

When referring to a habitual past problem (in the context of school), past tense 'forgot' fits better. 'Specifically' is acceptable but 'especially during my school years' sounds more natural. 'Always' can remain but paired with past tense for past habits.

× I forget a lot of homework and umm lecture everything.

✓ I forgot a lot of homework and missed many lectures.

The original is unclear: 'lecture everything' is ungrammatical. Use 'missed many lectures' to express failing to attend or remember lecture content. Also align tense to past habitual 'forgot'. 'A lot of homework' is fine but 'forgot a lot of homework' is clearer as 'forgot to do a lot of homework' or 'forgot a lot of my homework'.

× That's a bad point in my life. I hope that I.

✓ That was a bad point in my life. I hope I have improved since then.

The fragment 'I hope that I.' is incomplete. Provide a complete clause such as 'I hope I have improved since then.' Match past tense 'was' for the past point and add a full hope clause.

× I need to remember my significant situations that umm, if I brush my teeth and if I umm, do my important things.

✓ I need to remember important things, such as whether I have brushed my teeth or done other important tasks.

The phrase 'significant situations' is awkward; 'important things' is clearer. For habitual or daily actions, use 'whether I have brushed my teeth' or 'whether I brushed my teeth' depending on context. Use parallel structure for the two items ('brushed' and 'done').

× Usually I put for me a schedule every month and I accord it and careful.

✓ Usually I make a schedule for myself every month and I keep to it and try to be careful.

The original word order 'put for me a schedule' is incorrect; use 'make a schedule for myself'. 'I accord it' is incorrect — likely meant 'I adhere to it' or 'I keep to it'. 'and careful' is incomplete; use 'try to be careful' or 'and be careful'.

× At the same times, I schedule my daily routine every month from January to December, and I daily, umm, check my schedule and obtain my information and the daily details in my life to leave more carefully carefully.

✓ At the same time, I plan my daily routine for every month from January to December, and each day I check my schedule and review the details of my life so I can live more carefully.

Use singular 'time' in the phrase 'at the same time'. 'Schedule my daily routine every month' is better as 'plan my daily routine for every month'. 'I daily, umm, check' is more natural as 'each day I check'. 'Obtain my information' is awkward; use 'review the details'. 'to leave more carefully carefully' is incorrect and repetitive; presumably 'to live more carefully' is intended.
