Shopping— Part 1 Informe

Sugerencia: Make your answer more concise and natural by starting with a clear topic sentence, using linking words to connect ideas, and avoiding repetition. Add one specific detail about what you like to browse (e.g., clothing, gadgets) to make the content more concrete.

Ejemplo: Yes, I enjoy shopping in my free time. I usually shop with my family or online, and I especially like browsing for clothing and accessories. Because I can compare styles and prices easily online, I often save time and find better deals.

Sugerencia: Give a clear topic sentence, then explain reasons using linking words and a specific example. Correct small grammar issues (e.g., 'allows' not 'allow') and avoid vague expressions like 'effectively' without explanation.

Ejemplo: Yes, I always compare prices when I shop. Because online comparison is quick and easy, I can check several stores in minutes. For example, last month I compared three websites before buying a pair of shoes and saved about 20%.

Sugerencia: Avoid repeating words (e.g., 'usually') and make the structure clearer: topic sentence + brief reason + example. Improve natural phrasing and tighten the ending to be more fluent.

Ejemplo: No, it is not difficult for me to make choices. I normally check prices and product reviews online beforehand, so when I get to the store I already know what I want. For instance, I read reviews and compare specs before buying an electronic gadget.

Sugerencia: Be direct and reduce fillers like 'um' and 'uh'. Start with a clear opinion, then give specific reasons and an example contrasting brand price versus quality. Use precise vocabulary (e.g., 'brand premium' instead of 'increase the deal').

Ejemplo: I don't think expensive products are always better; it depends on the item. While some premium brands offer higher quality, sometimes you pay a brand premium for the name rather than better performance. For example, I bought a mid-range smartphone that matched the features of a flagship model for a much lower price.

× So I like to browse the Internet and think about the product.

✓ So I like browsing the Internet and thinking about products.

After 'like' both the infinitive and -ing form are possible, but earlier the student used 'I like shopping' (gerund). For consistency and naturalness use gerunds: 'browsing' and 'thinking'. Also pluralize 'product' to 'products' when speaking generally. Suggestion: Use parallel gerunds for similar actions and plural nouns when generalizing.

× So comparison allow us to buy something effectively.

✓ So comparing prices allows us to buy things more effectively.

'Comparison' (singular) requires the singular verb 'allows'. However, better phrasing is to use the gerund 'comparing' as the subject, which takes singular verb 'allows'. Also change 'something' to 'things' and 'effectively' to 'more effectively' for natural comparative meaning. Suggestion: Use gerund subjects with matching verb form and choose plural/general nouns when appropriate.

× I like to compare them online because I can do it easily.

✓ I like comparing prices online because I can do it easily.

Using the gerund 'comparing' matches natural collocation with 'like' and clarifies the object 'prices' rather than 'them'. Keep consistency with gerund forms elsewhere. Suggestion: Specify the object ('prices') and use gerund for natural phrasing.

× So when going to the shop only one thing I have to do is just buy.

✓ So when I go to the shop, the only thing I have to do is buy it.

The original sentence lacks a clear subject and has awkward word order. Add the subject 'I', use the finite verb 'go' not the participle 'going', and place 'only' before 'thing' for correct emphasis. Add 'it' to show what is being bought. Suggestion: Ensure each clause has an explicit subject and use natural word order: 'When I go to the shop, the only thing I have to do is buy it.'

× ...we have to check the quality of the product before buying them online.

✓ ...we have to check the quality of the products before buying them online.

The singular 'product' does not agree with the plural pronoun 'them'. Use plural 'products' to match 'them' or change 'them' to 'it'. Suggestion: Keep noun and pronoun number consistent: 'products...them' or 'product...it'.

× So sometimes it's uh, the price of the brand may increase the deal of the products, so we have to check the quality.

✓ So sometimes the brand's price may increase the cost of the products, so we have to check the quality.

The original mixes constructions ('it's', 'may') and has incorrect collocation 'increase the deal of the products'. Use a clear noun phrase 'the brand's price' and proper verb 'increase the cost'. Remove filler 'it's uh' for clarity. Suggestion: Use concise phrasing and correct collocations: 'the brand's price may increase the cost of the products'.
