Gifts— Part 1 채점 보고서

제안: Câu trả lời thiếu rõ ràng, nhiều lỗi ngữ pháp và ý không mạch lạc. Nên mở đầu trực tiếp (topic sentence), tránh lặp từ, dùng thêm một hoặc hai chi tiết cụ thể và liên kết bằng từ nối. Chú ý ngữ pháp (thì, danh từ số nhiều/ít, mạo từ) và dùng từ vựng phù hợp (e.g., "not very good at choosing gifts").

예시: I'm not very good at choosing gifts. I often struggle when I need to pick something meaningful, such as a traditional book or a special toy, because I'm worried it won't suit the recipient. For that reason, I usually ask their friends or check their interests before buying.

제안: Câu trả lời lặp ý và cấu trúc câu rối. Nên trả lời trực tiếp rồi nêu 1–2 ví dụ cụ thể, dùng từ nối để mạch lạc (e.g., "for example", "especially"). Tránh thêm từ không cần thiết và sửa lỗi phát âm/grammatical fragments.

예시: I usually give gifts on special occasions, especially birthdays. For example, I give my friends presents for their birthday, and at important religious events I often give small prayer-related gifts.

제안: Ý chính có nhưng câu bị dở dang và lặp. Cần mở đầu bằng câu chủ đề, sau đó nêu các tiêu chí cụ thể (price, meaning, tradition) và kết thúc bằng câu hoàn chỉnh. Dùng liên từ (e.g., "also", "because") để nối các ý.

예시: When choosing a gift, I consider several factors. First, price matters because I don't want to overspend. I also prefer gifts with traditional or sentimental value, since I want the present to be meaningful for the recipient.

제안: Câu trả lời ngắn, sai ngữ pháp ("bite", "don't felt") và không rõ ràng. Nên trả lời trực tiếp (Yes/No), giải thích lý do rõ ràng với ví dụ cụ thể, dùng thì đúng và từ vựng phù hợp (e.g., "I've never made a handmade gift").

예시: No, I've never given a handmade gift. I usually buy presents from shops or bookstores because I don't feel confident making things myself, and it's quicker when I'm busy.

제안: Ý trả lời đúng hướng nhưng diễn đạt lúng túng, nhiều tiếng ậm ừ và cấu trúc sai. Nên nói rõ quan điểm ngay, giải thích lý do với ví dụ, tránh lặp và loại bỏ tiếng ngắt quãng. Sử dụng từ vựng như "express feelings", "sentimental", "price doesn't matter".

예시: No, I don't think expensive gifts express feelings better. In my view, a small but thoughtful or sentimental gift can show more care than an expensive item, for example a handwritten letter or a family heirloom.

× So I'm not really good at giving gifts, especially when I have to choose something special like expensive toys or traditional books which contain a variety of value, or even other things that are my friends or other.

✓ I'm not very good at giving gifts, especially when I have to choose something special, such as expensive toys or traditional books with cultural value, or other items for my friends.

The sentence has awkward structure and unclear phrases. Replace 'So' with nothing or 'I'm', use 'very' instead of 'really' for formality, restructure the list with 'such as', change 'contain a variety of value' to 'with cultural value' to clarify meaning, and 'other things that are my friends or other' is unclear so change to 'other items for my friends'. Suggestions: simplify clauses, use clear noun phrases and parallel structure.

× And give presents to other people on a special occasion like my friend's birthday and even if there is a an occasion of someone, especially in that occasion, then I will give some special prayer presents.

✓ I give presents to other people on special occasions like my friend's birthday, and if there is another important occasion, I will give a special or thoughtful gift.

Problems: unnecessary leading 'And', repeated article 'a an', awkward phrase 'occasion of someone' and 'special prayer presents' which is unclear. Use plural 'occasions' and simplify to 'another important occasion'. Replace 'special prayer presents' with 'special or thoughtful gift' for clarity. Suggestions: remove filler words, fix articles, and use natural collocations.

× Actually, there are a lot of things that I have to decide when I choose a group. Especially the price. I don't want to buy something so expensive and it's also about the traditional value, so I want to buy something meaningful, and it should.

✓ Actually, there are a lot of things I have to consider when I choose a gift. Especially the price: I don't want to buy something too expensive. I also consider traditional value, so I want to buy something meaningful.

Errors: 'choose a group' is incorrect; should be 'choose a gift'. Fragment 'Especially the price.' can be joined; 'so expensive' should be 'too expensive'. Final clause 'and it should.' is incomplete. Suggestions: use 'consider' instead of 'decide', combine fragments into complete sentences, and remove incomplete endings.

× So I have never bite a handmade gift because I wanted to choose presents that I find outside maybe grocery shops or bookstores and I don't felt.

✓ I have never bought a handmade gift because I prefer to buy presents from stores like grocery shops or bookstores, and I haven't felt comfortable making them.

Errors: 'bite' is incorrect verb form; past participle of 'buy' is 'bought'. Also tense and verb forms are inconsistent: 'I find' should be 'I buy' or 'from stores', and 'I don't felt' mixes present negative with past 'felt'—correct is 'haven't felt' or 'didn't feel'. Suggestions: use correct past participle 'bought', keep tenses consistent with present perfect and present, and clarify reasons.

× Does not actually, uh, uh, it, it does not actually, uh, about the expensive, uh, value that it uh, have on the gifts, but it must contain traditional and meaningful.

✓ Not really. It is not the expensive value of the gift that matters; the gift should be traditional and meaningful.

This utterance is very disfluent with fillers and incorrect grammar. 'Does not actually' is wrong; use 'Not really.' 'that it have on the gifts' has subject-verb agreement and word order issues—use 'that matters' or 'that is important'. 'it must contain traditional and meaningful' is ungrammatical; say 'the gift should be traditional and meaningful.' Suggestions: remove fillers, use clear subject-verb structure, and choose appropriate adjectives.
