Food— Part 1 채점 보고서

제안: Be more concise and natural: start with a clear topic sentence naming the food, avoid fillers (uh, um) and unclear phrases like "business cuisine." Add one specific reason with a linking word. Keep answers under 5 sentences.

예시: My favourite food is Tom Yum soup. I love Thai cuisine because of its fresh herbs and bold spices, which give the soup a perfect balance of sour, spicy and fragrant flavours. For example, the use of lemongrass and galangal makes it both refreshing and comforting.

제안: Use correct tense and clearer structure: begin with a direct topic sentence in past tense, then give a brief reason and a present contrast using linking words (however, now). Remove hesitations and repetition.

예시: When I was young I loved eating fast food, such as pizza, burgers and pasta, because it was convenient and tasty. However, I don't eat it often now and only have it occasionally as a treat.

제안: Be specific and fluent: state clearly that you change foods with seasons, give one precise example and describe it with relevant vocabulary (warm, spiced, comforting). Avoid hesitations and unclear names — if unsure of a word, describe it instead.

예시: Yes, I eat different foods in different seasons. For example, in winter my family makes a warm UAE dessert called luqaimat, which are small fried dough balls served with syrup; they are sweet and comforting on cold days.

제안: Answer directly and coherently: start with a clear topic sentence (Yes/No), then explain briefly using linking words (but, however, instead). Give one specific example of a new favourite to illustrate change.

예시: Not really — my taste hasn't changed much. As a child I loved lasagna and I still enjoy pasta dishes, but I have added many other favourites like Thai curries and grilled fish, so my range of preferred foods has expanded.

× My favorite food is Tom Yum soup, uh, and my way of thinking, the Thai cuisine is, is uh, business cuisine.

✓ My favorite food is Tom Yum soup, and in my opinion, Thai cuisine is a vibrant cuisine.

Sentence has article and word choice issues and awkward structure (Grammar problem types 17 and 26). Use 'in my opinion' instead of 'my way of thinking' for natural phrasing; add the indefinite article 'a' before 'vibrant cuisine' and replace 'business cuisine' (incorrect word) with a suitable adjective. Also remove repeated filler 'is, is'. Suggestion: simplify and use clear adjectives.

× I like, I like their herbs and the spices they used in their food.

✓ I like their herbs and the spices they use in their food.

Original mixes past tense 'used' with present general statement; use present simple 'use' for habitual facts (Grammar problem type 6 present tense issue). Also remove repeated 'I like' for concision.

× It makes a lot of beautiful, uh, flavor.

✓ They create a lot of beautiful flavors.

Mismatch of subject and verb and countability (Grammar problem types 1 and 27). 'It makes' is wrong because 'herbs and spices' plural require 'they create'; 'flavor' should be plural 'flavors' or 'flavor' as uncountable. Use plural verb and noun: 'They create a lot of beautiful flavors.'

× When I am young, I will.

✓ When I was young, I...

Tense error (Grammar problem type 6 present tense issue). The context asks about past preferences, so use past tense 'was' not 'am', and 'will' is unnecessary. Suggest linking: 'When I was young, I really liked...'.

× I really liked, uh, eating fast food, for example, pizzas and burgers and pastas.

✓ I really liked eating fast food, for example, pizza, burgers, and pasta.

Pluralization and countability issues (Grammar problem type 1). 'Pizza' and 'pasta' are generally uncountable or mass nouns in this context; list should be parallel. Remove extra commas and filler 'uh'.

× Uh, I really enjoyed, uh, having this food when I was young until now.

✓ I really enjoyed eating this food when I was young, and I still do sometimes.

Tense and temporal phrasing issue (Grammar problem type 6). 'When I was young until now' mixes past and present awkwardly. Use a clear contrast: 'when I was young' (past) and 'I still do sometimes' (present).

× I don't really like, uh, fast food, but I eat them like a reward.

✓ I don't really like fast food, but I eat it as a reward.

Pronoun agreement and countability (Grammar problem types 12 and 1). 'Fast food' is treated as a mass noun singular, so use 'it' not 'them'. Use 'as a reward' instead of 'like a reward' for natural phrasing.

× Yes, of course, like in each season of uh, umm, I eat specific food.

✓ Yes, of course. In each season I eat specific foods.

Sentence structure and pluralization (Grammar problem types 26 and 1). 'Like' and filler words can be removed; 'specific food' should be plural 'specific foods' to match meaning.

× For example, in winter we like to cook in a dessert that is called cedar and a UAE dessert, uh, that is, it is an uh, warm and sweet, uh, that have sweet and warm taste for the winter season.

✓ For example, in winter we like to make a dessert called qatayef, a UAE sweet that is warm and has a sweet, comforting taste for the winter season.

Multiple preposition and word choice errors (Grammar problem types 11 and 13) and subject-verb agreement (type 27). 'Cook in a dessert' is incorrect preposition; 'dessert' should be 'make' or 'cook', the name corrected to a plausible dessert (if 'cedar' was intended as 'qatayef' or 'khabeesa'—here choose a likely UAE dessert), and 'that have' should be 'that has' to agree with singular 'dessert'. Simplify redundant fillers and reorder for clarity.

× Not that much I used to love.

✓ Not that much. I used to love it.

Sentence structure error and missing object (Grammar problem types 26 and 23). Original is fragmented. Add pronoun 'it' as the object and separate into two sentences for clarity.

× My favorite dish was lasagna and I still love pasta, so I will not say that my taste had changed a lot.

✓ My favorite dish was lasagna and I still love pasta, so I would not say that my taste has changed much.

Tense and modal choice issues (Grammar problem types 7 and 5) and awkward phrasing. Use 'would not say' for tentative present judgment and present perfect 'has changed' to connect past to present. Also 'much' is more natural than 'a lot' after 'has changed' in this structure.

× I would say that I did add a lot of new dishes to my favorite foods.

✓ I would say that I have added many new dishes to my favorite foods.

Tense issue (Grammar problem type 6) and quantifier choice (type 14). Use present perfect 'have added' to show change up to now, and 'many' is preferable to 'a lot of' in this countable context; also 'dishes' fits with 'many'.
