Ví dụ: When I meet someone for the first time, I repeat their name during the conversation. I also connect the name with the person’s face or a memorable feature. For example, I might silently repeat the name a few times after we finish talking.

Điểm: 40.0Gợi ý: State your feeling clearly instead of saying “It is nothing.” The intended meaning seems to be that you are not offended because people may have limited memory. Use natural expressions such as “I don’t take it personally” and provide a brief example or explanation.

Ví dụ: Sometimes, especially when I haven’t seen someone for a long time. I usually remember their face, but their name may not come to me immediately. If I meet them again, I may ask a mutual friend or wait for the name to come back to me.
× I think I'm the people.
✓ I think I'm the kind of person who is good at remembering names.
People is a plural noun, but the subject I refers to one person. Use the singular noun person after kind of. The phrase who is good at remembering names also makes the intended meaning grammatically complete.
× I think I can remember people name.
✓ I think I can remember people's names.
People's is the possessive form needed to show that the names belong to people. Names should be plural because the answer refers to more than one person's name.
× Will help me can support my friend to remember this in my minds.
✓ This will help me remember their names.
Will and can are both modal verbs, so they should not be used together in this structure. After help, use the base form of the verb: help me remember. Also, their names is the appropriate noun phrase for the intended meaning.
× Will help me can support my friend to remember this in my minds.
✓ This will help me remember their names.
The original sentence begins with a verb phrase but has no clear subject. Add This as the subject and use the complete structure This will help me remember their names.
× I think many people have uh, limit spread.
✓ I think many people have limited memory spans.
Limit is normally a noun or a verb, so it cannot modify memory spans in this form. Limited is the adjective needed before the plural noun phrase memory spans.
× I think their brand can remember my name when the first time they hear.
✓ I think their brains can remember my name the first time they hear it.
When referring to the brains of many people, use the plural noun brains. The pronoun it is also needed after hear to refer to my name. The phrase the first time they hear it is the natural structure.
× Sometimes I forget there's people who I have a last meet a long time.
✓ Sometimes I forget that there are people whom I last met a long time ago.
People is plural, so use there are rather than there's, which means there is. The phrase last met needs the past-tense verb met, and a long time ago is the correct time expression.
× Sometimes I forget there's people who I have a last meet a long time.
✓ Sometimes I forget that there are people whom I last met a long time ago.
The meeting happened in the past, so use the simple past form met. Last met clearly identifies the most recent past occasion on which the meeting occurred.
× I don't, uh, did they sell them in my mind in a long time.
✓ I do not keep their names in my mind for a long time.
After do not, use the base form of the verb, not the past form did. Keep is the appropriate present-tense verb for describing a general difficulty remembering names. Use for a long time to describe a duration.
× I don't, uh, did they sell them in my mind in a long time.
✓ I do not keep their names in my mind for a long time.
Them does not clearly identify what is being remembered, and they does not agree with the intended noun phrase. Their names is a clear possessive noun phrase referring to the names of the people.
