Gifts— Part 1 채점 보고서

제안: Reduce hesitation sounds (um, uh) and give a clear topic sentence, then one or two supporting details with a linking word. Be specific about how you choose gifts and avoid generalizations or gender stereotypes.

예시: Yes, I think I'm good at choosing gifts. I base my choices on how close I am to the person and their personality; for instance, I often choose perfume for a close friend who likes fragrances, while I buy books for someone who enjoys reading.

제안: Start with a direct topic sentence and then add one clear example using a linking word. Avoid repetition and filler words. Be more concise and correct small grammatical errors (e.g., 'a birthday gift' not 'gifts').

예시: I usually give gifts on birthdays and other milestones. For example, for a birthday I pick something related to their hobby—such as art supplies for a friend who paints—while for graduations I might give a practical item like a briefcase.

제안: Open with a clear topic sentence, then use linking words to organize supporting details. Be specific about categories and give one concrete example. Reduce hesitation sounds and fix small grammar (e.g., 'sports-related gifts').

예시: I mainly consider the recipient's personality and interests. For example, if someone is quiet and enjoys reading, I might choose a novel, whereas for a sporty person I would buy sports equipment like a water bottle or gym gloves.

제안: Answer directly, then give a concise reason and a brief contrasting statement. Avoid repetitive phrases and correct grammar (e.g., 'require' not 'requires', 'I'd rather buy' not 'I'd rather to buy').

예시: No, I haven't given handmade gifts. They usually require a lot of time and crafting skill, and since I'm not very good at handicrafts, I prefer to buy something thoughtful instead.

제안: Give a clear opinion in the first sentence and then support it with specific reasons and an example using linking words. Avoid repetition and small grammar errors ('what's important' or 'what is important').

예시: No, expensive gifts don't necessarily show more feeling. What's important is the thought behind the gift; for instance, a handwritten letter and a small meaningful present can be more touching than an expensive item.

× I usually pick gifts according to my relationship to that person and also the person's personality.

✓ I usually pick gifts based on my relationship with that person and on the person's personality.

Incorrect use of prepositions: 'according to my relationship to that person' is unnatural. Use 'based on' or 'according to' with appropriate objects; 'relationship with' is the correct collocation. Also use parallel structure 'based on my relationship with that person and on the person's personality.' Grammar problem type ID:11

× I pick umm, some perfumes or a cosmetics for girls.

✓ I pick, umm, some perfumes or cosmetics for girls.

Article and noun form error: 'a cosmetics' is incorrect because 'cosmetics' is an uncountable plural noun and does not take the singular article 'a'. Remove 'a' to make 'cosmetics' correct; keep 'some' optional before plural/uncountable nouns. Grammar problem type ID:22

× I usually give gifts to others during their birthdays or special occasions.

✓ I usually give gifts to others on their birthdays or on special occasions.

Preposition and article collocation: use 'on' with 'birthdays' and 'on special occasions' is more natural than 'during their birthdays'. This is a preposition choice but fits article/preposition usage; clarified timing. Grammar problem type ID:22

× For example, during birthdays, I will prepare a birthday gifts according to their hobbies based on my daily observation, UH and other occasions like UH graduation ceremony.

✓ For example, on birthdays I prepare birthday gifts according to their hobbies based on my daily observations, and on other occasions like graduation ceremonies.

Several errors: 'during birthdays' -> 'on birthdays' (preposition), 'a birthday gifts' -> 'birthday gifts' (article/noun number), 'daily observation' -> 'daily observations' (plural to match general habit), 'other occasions like graduation ceremony' -> 'on other occasions like graduation ceremonies' (preposition and pluralization). Keep tense consistent: present simple for habitual actions. Grammar problem type ID:22

× Usually I will consider people's personality, for example, umm, do they prefer uh, quiet things or they are those types of person who like sports.

✓ Usually I consider people's personalities; for example, do they prefer quiet things or are they the type of person who likes sports?

Subject-verb agreement and noun number: 'people's personality' should be 'people's personalities' to reflect different individuals. 'Those types of person' is incorrect; use 'the type of person' or 'people who like sports.' Also 'who like sports' needs agreement with 'person' -> 'who likes sports.' Removed unnecessary 'will' for habitual action. Grammar problem type ID:27

× If they like sports, I will give a sports related gifts.

✓ If they like sports, I give sports-related gifts.

Article and hyphenation: 'a sports related gifts' mixes singular article with plural noun; use plural 'gifts' without 'a' or use 'a sports-related gift.' Also hyphenate 'sports-related.' Use present simple for habitual actions. Grammar problem type ID:22

× It is because handmade gifts usually requires a lot of time and you have to be really good at handicrafts.

✓ It is because handmade gifts usually require a lot of time and you have to be really good at handicrafts.

Subject-verb agreement: 'handmade gifts' is plural so the verb should be 'require' (not 'requires'). This falls under subject-verb agreement which maps to verb form/number; use plural verb with plural subject. Grammar problem type ID:1

× Uh, clearly I'm not that type of person.

✓ Uh, clearly I'm not that type of person.

No grammatical correction needed; sentence is correct. (No change required per instruction to only correct listed types.) Grammar problem type ID:12

× I'd rather to buy a gift for my friends.

✓ I'd rather buy a gift for my friends.

Incorrect use of 'rather': after 'would rather' the base form of the verb is used without 'to.' Remove 'to.' Grammar problem type ID:8

× Do expensive gifts better express your feelings?

✓ Do expensive gifts better express your feelings?

Sentence is grammatically acceptable as a question. No correction needed. Grammar problem type ID:26

× I don't think expensive gifts better express my feelings.

✓ I don't think expensive gifts better express my feelings.

Sentence is acceptable; however more natural phrasing is 'I don't think expensive gifts express my feelings better.' Both are acceptable; no strict grammar correction required. Grammar problem type ID:13

× I think what important about gifts are they are really related to the emotions that you want to express.

✓ I think what is important about gifts is that they are really related to the emotions you want to express.

Sentence structure and subject-verb agreement: Missing 'is' after 'what' and incorrect clause structure. Use 'what is important ... is that ...' and remove redundant 'that' before 'you want.' Ensure singular/plural agreement: 'what is important ... is that they are.' Grammar problem type ID:26

× For example, a a gift with loving and caring is better than just expensive.

✓ For example, a gift expressing love and care is better than an expensive one.

Article and adjective/noun forms: 'a a' duplicate article; 'a gift with loving and caring' is awkward—use 'a gift expressing love and care.' 'Better than just expensive' needs a comparative noun phrase: 'an expensive one.' Grammar problem type ID:22
