What is your favourite food?
Puntuación: 45.0Sugerencia: Bạn đã trả lời đúng chủ đề nhưng câu trả lời bị ngắt giữa chừng và có nhiều cách diễn đạt lặp lại như “cream sauce” và “like”. Hãy mở đầu trực tiếp bằng tên món ăn, sau đó mô tả rõ nguyên liệu và đưa ra một lý do cụ thể. Chú ý dùng danh từ số nhiều “noodles”, cấu trúc “noodles with creamy mushroom sauce and salmon”, và tránh câu mở đầu không cần thiết như “That’s the interesting questions”.
Ejemplo: My favourite food is creamy mushroom noodles with salmon. I love the combination of the soft noodles, rich sauce and tender fish. I usually order this dish at Italian restaurants because it is filling but not too heavy.
What kind of food did you like when you were young?
Puntuación: 58.0Sugerencia: Bạn đưa ra được món ăn, người nấu và lý do nên nội dung khá phù hợp. Tuy nhiên, “convertedly remember” không tự nhiên; nên dùng “I clearly remember”. Hãy sửa “a salad from Russia” thành “Russian salad”, bỏ “make it” sau “used to make”, và dùng “brings back memories” thay cho “springs back memory”. Có thể thêm một vài nguyên liệu hoặc kỷ niệm cụ thể để câu trả lời tự nhiên hơn.
Ejemplo: When I was young, I really liked Russian salad, which my grandfather often made for me. It usually contained potatoes, carrots, peas and mayonnaise. I loved it because it was delicious and brought back warm memories of spending time with him.
Do you eat different foods at different times of the year?
Puntuación: 35.0Sugerencia: Bạn đã cố gắng giải thích sự khác biệt theo mùa nhưng câu trả lời thiếu hoàn chỉnh và có nhiều lỗi ngữ pháp, đặc biệt ở “we used to eat”, “any times of the year” và “I difference terms”. Hãy trả lời theo cấu trúc: khẳng định trực tiếp, nêu ví dụ về một mùa, rồi giải thích lý do. Dùng các cụm tự nhiên như “different seasons”, “seasonal ingredients”, “In summer...” và “whereas in winter...”.
Ejemplo: Yes, I do. In Vietnam, we often eat lighter dishes and fresh fruit in summer because the weather is hot. In winter, people tend to have warmer food, such as hotpot or noodle soup, because it helps them feel comfortable. We also use different seasonal ingredients throughout the year.
Has your favourite food changed since you were a child?
Puntuación: 30.0Sugerencia: Bạn đã đưa ra ý chính nhưng câu trả lời chưa hoàn chỉnh và phần giải thích “Some it's really owning to me” không rõ nghĩa. Hãy nói rõ món ăn yêu thích hiện tại có giống món ăn thời thơ ấu hay không, sau đó nêu một lý do hoặc sự thay đổi cụ thể. Có thể dùng cấu trúc “It hasn’t changed much because...” hoặc “It has changed slightly because...”.
Ejemplo: It hasn’t changed much since I was a child. I still enjoy Russian salad because it reminds me of my grandfather and my childhood. However, I now eat creamy pasta more often because I have developed a taste for Western food.
× Ooh, that's the interesting questions.
✓ Ooh, that's an interesting question.
The singular countable noun question requires the indefinite article an. Because question begins with a vowel sound, an is used instead of a. Also, question must be singular because the speaker is referring to one question.
× My favorite food is some kind of noodles with the cream like cream sauce, like cream mushroom sauce and a salmon with a
✓ My favorite food is a kind of noodles with a creamy mushroom sauce and salmon.
The original sentence is incomplete and contains an unclear sequence of noun phrases. The correction organizes the food description into a complete sentence with a subject, verb, and clear complements.
× Honestly, I convertedly remember that was a salad from Russia, like Russia salad that my grandfather used to make it for me.
✓ Honestly, I vaguely remember that it was Russian salad that my grandfather used to make for me.
The pronoun it is needed before the clause was a salad. In the relative clause, that already functions as the object of make, so the additional pronoun it is incorrect. Do not use both that and it for the same object.
× Honestly, I convertedly remember that was a salad from Russia, like Russia salad that my grandfather used to make it for me.
✓ Honestly, I vaguely remember that it was Russian salad that my grandfather used to make for me.
Russian is the adjective used to describe something from Russia. Convertedly is not the correct adverb for expressing uncertain memory; vaguely is appropriate in this context.
× The reasons why I like it is because it's very tasty and it springs back memory.
✓ The reason I like it is that it is very tasty and brings back memories.
The original sentence uses the plural subject reasons with the singular verb is. The correction uses the singular noun reason, which agrees with is. The phrase brings back memories is also the natural grammatical expression.
× The reasons why I like it is because it's very tasty and it springs back memory.
✓ The reason I like it is that it is very tasty and brings back memories.
When describing memories in general, the plural noun memories is normally used. The correction also changes reasons to the singular reason because only one main reason is introduced.
× Of course we used to eat different food at different times in Vietnam, any times of the year have their own seasoning ingredients seasonal ingredients so we must uh I difference terms
✓ Of course, we eat different foods at different times of the year in Vietnam. Each season has its own seasonal ingredients, so our meals vary.
The question asks about a general present-day habit, so the present simple eat is more suitable than used to eat. Used to describes a past habit that no longer happens or is no longer true.
× Of course we used to eat different food at different times in Vietnam, any times of the year have their own seasoning ingredients seasonal ingredients so we must uh I difference terms
✓ Of course, we eat different foods at different times of the year in Vietnam. Each season has its own seasonal ingredients, so our meals vary.
The plural noun foods is appropriate because the speaker is referring to various kinds of food. Using the correct plural form makes the contrast between different times of the year clearer.
× Of course we used to eat different food at different times in Vietnam, any times of the year have their own seasoning ingredients seasonal ingredients so we must uh I difference terms
✓ Of course, we eat different foods at different times of the year in Vietnam. Each season has its own seasonal ingredients, so our meals vary.
Any times is not the correct expression in this context. The phrase different times of the year or each season correctly expresses the repeated periods being discussed.
× Of course we used to eat different food at different times in Vietnam, any times of the year have their own seasoning ingredients seasonal ingredients so we must uh I difference terms
✓ Of course, we eat different foods at different times of the year in Vietnam. Each season has its own seasonal ingredients, so our meals vary.
The original response contains several incomplete and confusing clauses joined together without clear punctuation or structure. Dividing it into two complete sentences makes the answer easier to understand and more appropriate for the question.
× I think not that much. Some it's really owning to me like some of it
✓ I do not think it has changed that much. Some of it has really grown on me, while some of it has not.
The original phrases are incomplete and do not clearly express the contrast between foods the speaker now likes and foods they do not. The correction uses complete clauses and the conjunction while to connect the contrasting ideas.
× I think not that much. Some it's really owning to me like some of it
✓ I do not think it has changed that much. Some of it has really grown on me, while some of it has not.
Some it's is incorrect because it's means it is or it has. The correct structure is some of it, where it refers to the food or the speaker's preference for it.
