Do you like shopping?
Candidato
Yes, I like shopping as I spend a lot of time doing shopping in Japan last summer. There are so many cute stuffs and beautiful clothing and there are too much choice for me. So I spend a lot of time of choosing which outfit is suitable to me and all of them are very attractive.
Examinador
Do you compare prices when you shop? Why?
Candidato
No because I have a credit card from my father and there are no limit so I could spend a lot of money on different items. So I seldom compare price but if I want to buy lux luxury things I may compare.

Is it difficult for you to make choices when you shop?
Candidato
Yes, it's very difficult for me to choose the best item because I would compare the prices and the quality of the thing and I would need someone to give advice me so that I can choose the best everyday item.

Do you like shopping?
Pontuação: 65.0Sugestão: Make your answer more natural and concise: start with a clear topic sentence, correct grammar (countable/uncountable nouns, articles), avoid repetition, and limit to 3–4 short sentences. Include a specific detail (one example) to support your statement and use a linking word to connect ideas.
Exemplo: Yes, I enjoy shopping. For example, when I was in Japan last summer I spent hours in boutiques because there were many cute accessories and stylish clothes. However, I often take my time choosing an outfit since I want something that fits well and looks unique.
Do you compare prices when you shop? Why?
Pontuação: 58.0Sugestão: Be direct and grammatical: begin with a clear topic sentence, explain reason with one or two specific details, and use linking words (however, but) to contrast. Correct word choice (no limit → no limit on spending; luxury) and avoid unnecessary personal financial detail if it sounds inappropriate — instead explain habit or preference.
Exemplo: Not usually, because I don't worry much about price when I shop for everyday items. However, I do compare prices for expensive or luxury purchases to make sure I get good value.
Is it difficult for you to make choices when you shop?
Pontuação: 62.0Sugestão: Start with a concise answer, then give specific reasons and an example. Improve grammar (compare prices and quality; give me advice). Use a linking word (because, so) and keep to 2–3 supporting sentences.
Exemplo: Yes, I often find it hard to decide. Because I compare both price and quality, I sometimes ask friends for advice so I can be sure I pick the most practical item.
Do you think expensive products are always better than cheaper ones?
Pontuação: 55.0Sugestão: Answer directly and give a clear reason with a specific example. Correct grammar (I don't find their quality that good; I prefer cheaper brands), avoid trailing off. Use a linking word (for example, therefore) and finish the thought in 2–3 sentences.
Exemplo: No, expensive items are not always better. For example, I tried makeup from Chanel and Dior and found the quality wasn't much better than some affordable brands, so I usually prefer reasonably priced products that work well.
× Yes, I like shopping as I spend a lot of time doing shopping in Japan last summer.
✓ Yes, I like shopping because I spent a lot of time shopping in Japan last summer.
The sentence mixes present tense ('I like') with past time reference ('last summer') but uses present simple 'spend'. Use past simple 'spent' to match the past time frame. Also use 'because' instead of 'as' for clearer cause and use 'shopping' rather than 'doing shopping'. Suggestion: Use consistent tense with time markers (e.g., 'last summer' → past simple).
× There are so many cute stuffs and beautiful clothing and there are too much choice for me.
✓ There are so many cute things and beautiful clothes, and there are too many choices for me.
'Stuffs' is nonstandard; use 'things'. 'Clothing' is an uncountable noun but 'clothes' is the plural countable form for items. 'Too much choice' is incorrect because 'choice' here is countable; use 'too many choices'. Suggestion: Use 'things' or 'items' and plural 'clothes' and match quantifiers ('many' with countable nouns).
× So I spend a lot of time of choosing which outfit is suitable to me and all of them are very attractive.
✓ So I spend a lot of time choosing which outfit is suitable for me, and all of them are very attractive.
Do not use 'time of' before a gerund; correct form is 'spend time doing something'. Use 'suitable for me' rather than 'suitable to me'. Suggestion: Use 'spend a lot of time doing' and collocation 'suitable for someone'. Also ensure pronoun agreement if referring to 'outfits' use 'they' not 'it'.
× No because I have a credit card from my father and there are no limit so I could spend a lot of money on different items.
✓ No, because I have a credit card from my father and there is no limit, so I can spend a lot of money on different items.
Use article/agreement 'there is no limit' (singular). Use 'can' instead of 'could' for general ability in present context. Also add comma after 'No'. Suggestion: Match verb modal to meaning (present ability → can) and ensure subject-verb agreement in 'there is'.
× So I seldom compare price but if I want to buy lux luxury things I may compare.
✓ So I seldom compare prices, but if I want to buy luxury items I may compare.
Use plural 'prices' when talking generally. 'Lux luxury' is redundant/typo; use 'luxury'. 'Things' is informal; 'items' is better. Suggestion: Use plural nouns for general references and correct word form 'luxury items'.
× Yes, it's very difficult for me to choose the best item because I would compare the prices and the quality of the thing and I would need someone to give advice me so that I can choose the best everyday item.
✓ Yes, it's very difficult for me to choose the best item because I compare the prices and the quality of things, and I need someone to give me advice so that I can choose the best everyday item.
'Would' is incorrectly used; use present simple 'compare' and 'need' for habitual/present situations. 'The quality of the thing' is awkward; use 'the quality of things' or 'of the items'. 'Give advice me' word order is wrong; use 'give me advice'. Suggestion: Use present simple for habitual actions, correct word order for indirect object, and use plural 'things' when generalizing.
× No, I have tried some makeup brands like Chanel and Dior and I don't find those products quality is that good. I would rather use the cheap one and.
✓ No, I have tried some makeup brands like Chanel and Dior, and I don't find the quality of those products to be that good. I would rather use a cheaper one.
The clause 'I don't find those products quality is that good' is ungrammatical; rephrase as 'I don't find the quality of those products to be that good.' The final sentence was incomplete and used wrong comparative form 'cheap one' → 'cheaper one' or 'a cheaper product'. Remove trailing 'and'. Suggestion: Reorder to 'the quality of those products' and use comparative 'cheaper' with an article when referring to 'one'.
