Food— Part 1 Informe

Sugerencia: Be concise, avoid repetition, and add a brief reason or detail using a linking word. Keep answers within 1–3 sentences for clarity and naturalness.

Ejemplo: My favourite food is pasta because I love its variety; for example, I enjoy tomato-based sauces in summer and creamy sauces in winter.

Sugerencia: Respond with a full sentence that directly answers the question and give a specific example or comparison. Use a linking word to expand coherently.

Ejemplo: When I was young, I liked simple foods such as rice, chicken nuggets and fruit, but I didn't enjoy spicy dishes until later.

Sugerencia: Start with a direct topic sentence then provide a clear reason and a concrete example. Use linking words like ‘because’ or ‘for example’ and avoid repeating the same idea.

Ejemplo: Yes, I do. Because of the seasons, I eat lighter salads and cold pasta in summer, but in winter I prefer hearty soups and stews, for example pumpkin soup in November.

Sugerencia: Answer directly and give a clear reason or specific change with a linking phrase such as ‘because’ or ‘now’. Minimize hesitations and avoid repeating words.

Ejemplo: Yes, it has changed. When I was a child I mainly liked bland foods like plain pasta, but now I enjoy spicy and diverse cuisines because I travel more and have tried new dishes.

× My favorite food is pasta. I I love pasta so much.

✓ My favorite food is pasta. I love pasta so much.

The sentence contains a repeated word 'I' causing a sentence structure error (duplicate subject). Remove the extra 'I' to form a correct, fluent sentence. Suggestion: read aloud to catch accidental repetitions.

× Anything.

✓ Anything I could eat, depending on the situation.

A single-word response 'Anything.' is grammatically a fragment (sentence without a verb) and lacks clarity. To fit the examiner's question about past preferences, expand into a complete sentence with a verb. Suggestion: provide a short full sentence like 'Anything, really.' or 'I liked almost anything.' to be grammatical and informative.

× I eat different foods at different times of the year because I love to. I love to eat different foods from different time.

✓ I eat different foods at different times of the year because I love to. I love to eat different foods at different times of the year.

The phrase 'from different time' is incorrect preposition and form; it should be 'at different times of the year' to indicate seasonal variety. This is a verb phrase/preposition usage error; adjust to the present habitual tense and correct prepositional phrase. Suggestion: use 'at different times' or repeat the full phrase for clarity.

× Yes, true. Umm, my favorite food has changed since uh, I was child.

✓ Yes, that's true. Umm, my favorite food has changed since I was a child.

The phrase 'I was child' omits the indefinite article 'a' required with 'child' in this context. Also adding 'that's' makes the response more natural. Suggestion: include articles before singular countable nouns ('a child').

× Uh, so I love many things now. Umm, and in the past I didn't love the the things that I love now.

✓ Uh, so I love many things now. Umm, and in the past I didn't like the things that I love now.

The clause 'didn't love the the things' has a repeated word 'the' and uses 'love' with 'didn't' which is awkward; the verb 'like' is more natural for past preference. 'Didn't' requires the base form 'like' (not 'liked'). Suggestion: remove duplicate 'the' and use 'like' after 'didn't' to form correct past-tense negative: 'didn't like'.
