Memory— Part 1 Báo cáo

Gợi ý: Be more concise and grammatical. Start with a clear topic sentence, then give one or two specific supporting details with coherent linking words. Avoid repetition and correct tense/word form errors (e.g., "have good scores" → "get good scores").

Ví dụ: Yes, I am fairly good at memorising things. For example, when I was a child I could remember lessons after hearing them once, which helped me get good scores in exams. Because of this ability, I often revise by listening to recordings to reinforce memory.

Gợi ý: Give a direct answer, then describe a specific strategy with clear language and linking words. Fix phrases like "listen down" (write down) and "tape it on my laptop" (save a note on my laptop). Avoid filler words and maintain present/past tense consistency.

Ví dụ: Yes, I sometimes forget important things as I get older. To avoid this, I write notes and set reminders on my laptop and phone so I can track deadlines. As a result, I rarely miss important appointments.

Gợi ý: Provide a concise list with clear vocabulary and one concrete example. Remove unclear terms like "Edge I am collecting points" unless explained. Use linking words to connect items and explain why they matter.

Ví dụ: Every day I need to remember to complete my work tasks and to check my Microsoft Rewards points balance. For instance, I log into my account each morning to collect points and then review my task list so I don't miss deadlines.

Gợi ý: Answer with a clear method and one specific example. Use correct verbs ("write down" or "note down") and concise linking phrases ("so that", "therefore"). Avoid repetition and tense mistakes.

Ví dụ: I usually write important tasks down in a to‑do list and set deadlines in my calendar. For example, I note each task in a spreadsheet and mark it complete when finished, which helps me meet all deadlines.

× 'When I was a child, I believe it is a yes.'

✓ 'When I was a child, I would say yes.'

'Believe' in this context is awkward with a past time reference. Use 'would say' to report a past habit or attitude. This matches the past context "When I was a child" and sounds natural.'

× 'I am good at memorizing things.'

✓ 'I was good at memorizing things.'

'When I was a child' sets the time in the past, so the verb should be past tense ('was') to agree with the subject and time frame.'

× 'I could remember this kind of event.'

✓ 'I could remember these kinds of events.'

Plural/time reference: 'this kind of event' refers generally to events, so use plural 'these kinds of events' or rephrase 'that kind of event.' Also 'could' is fine for past ability; adjusting noun number makes the sentence natural.'

× 'Sometimes the lesson, even though I didn't even read this or just I just heard it, I remember it very well.'

✓ 'Sometimes I remember a lesson very well even if I had not read it and had only heard it.'

The original has incorrect word order and tense sequence. Use 'even if I had not read it and had only heard it' to show prior actions in the past. Also reposition subject and verb for clarity.'

× 'So when it comes to exams, it is a very efficient tool for me that I could memorize it easily and have a good scores.'

✓ 'So when it comes to exams, this ability is a very useful tool for me: I can memorize material easily and get good scores.'

'Efficient' is not the best collocation; use 'useful' or 'advantage.' 'Could memorize it easily' mixes past modal with general statement about ability—use 'can' for general ability. 'Have a good scores' is ungrammatical: use 'get good scores.'

× 'Yes, as today, uh, as I get older, I tend to forget important things.'

✓ 'Yes. As I get older, I tend to forget important things.'

Remove 'as today' (unclear). The present tense 'I get older' is acceptable for ongoing change; keep 'tend to forget' as present tendency. Also split into clearer sentences.'

× 'So what I do is I have to listen down so that I could not forget it and tape it on my laptop and see the progress if I forgot something so I could still stay top of the deadlines on.'

✓ 'What I do is write it down so that I do not forget it, record it on my laptop, and track progress so I can meet deadlines.'

'Listen down' is incorrect; use 'write down.' Use present tense 'do not forget' and 'can' for ability in general. 'Tape it' can mean record, so 'record it' is clearer. 'Stay top of the deadlines on' is ungrammatical; use 'meet deadlines.' Parallel verb forms improve clarity.'

× 'Edge I am collecting points on this specific Microsoft account and I need it to do it every day.'

✓ 'I am collecting points on a specific Microsoft account called Edge, and I need to do it every day.'

The original sentence has word order and article problems. Clarify 'Edge' as the account name and use 'a specific Microsoft account called Edge.' 'Need it to do it' is unclear; rephrase to 'need to do it every day.'

× 'And also the work I'm working on the work, the tasks and responsibilities that I have in my work, I need to remember it every day.'

✓ 'Also, the tasks and responsibilities I have at work I need to remember every day.'

Remove repetition 'work I'm working on the work.' Use 'at work' for correct preposition and make noun-verb agreement consistent: 'tasks and responsibilities ... I need to remember every day.'

× 'So I have to list it all down so that I could not forget about it.'

✓ 'So I have to list everything so that I do not forget it.'

'List it all down' is colloquial but acceptable; 'could not forget' mixes past modal—use 'do not forget' for habitual present. Use 'everything' for natural phrasing.'

× 'What did I do to remember important things is to listen down all of it.'

✓ 'What I do to remember important things is write everything down.'

Interrogative form 'What did I do' is incorrect in a declarative answer; use 'What I do' for present habit. 'Listen down' is incorrect; use 'write down.' Maintain consistent present tense for habitual actions.'

× 'I need to list, list it down so that I could not forget, so that I could also track all my progress if I already done this, done that or never been.'

✓ 'I need to list everything so that I do not forget and so I can track my progress to see what I have done and what I have not done.'

Use 'do not forget' and 'can' for present ability. Replace 'already done this, done that or never been' with clear perfect and negative perfect forms: 'what I have done and what I have not done.' This fixes tense and clarity issues.'

× 'So I'm as I was able to track the records on the tasks or responsibilities that I haven't done it yet so that I could stay stopped at the deadline.'

✓ 'This way I can track the tasks and responsibilities I have not done yet so that I can meet deadlines.'

The original is ungrammatical and confusing ('I'm as I was able', 'haven't done it yet', 'stay stopped at the deadline'). Use 'I can' for present ability, remove redundant pronoun 'it', and use 'meet deadlines' for correct idiom.'
