Opportunities— Part 1 採点レポート

提案: Câu trả lời có ý chính phù hợp nhưng mắc lỗi thì và cấu trúc: dùng “I had the chance” thay vì “I have a chance” vì câu hỏi nói về quá khứ. “A singing club” nên đổi thành “a singing club” trong cấu trúc liệt kê tự nhiên hơn, còn “the drama performance” nên là “a drama performance” nếu chưa được đề cập trước đó. Cụm “I have very funny” chưa hoàn chỉnh và cần thay bằng “I had a lot of fun” hoặc “It was a very funny experience.” Hãy bổ sung một chi tiết cụ thể, chẳng hạn vai diễn hoặc cảm xúc của bạn, và kết thúc câu trả lời đầy đủ trong tối đa 3–4 câu.

例: Yes, I had the chance to take part in several school activities, such as a singing club and a drama performance. I especially enjoyed the drama because I played the role of a detective in front of my classmates. It was a memorable experience, and I had a lot of fun despite feeling nervous at first.

提案: Câu trả lời có cấu trúc tốt: nêu quan điểm, đưa ra lý do và ví dụ. Tuy nhiên, nên dùng “broaden their horizons” thay vì “broaden their horizon”, “a new sport” thay vì “a new spot”, và “new experiences” hoặc “a new experience” thay vì “new experience”. Để câu trả lời tự nhiên hơn, có thể thêm từ nối như “For instance” và diễn đạt “by experimenting with new activities” ngắn gọn hơn. Nội dung đã cụ thể và nằm trong giới hạn độ dài phù hợp.

例: Yes, I think people should try a wide range of activities because doing so can help them discover new interests and broaden their horizons. For instance, learning a musical instrument or taking up a new sport can build useful skills and increase their confidence. Even if they do not enjoy every activity, they may learn something valuable from the experience.

✓ For example, learning a musical instrument or trying a new spot can help people develop useful skills and enjoy new experiences.
