Are you good at memorising things?
Điểm: 78.0Gợi ý: Be more concise and natural: start with a clear topic sentence, then add one specific supporting detail, using a linking word to connect. Avoid filler phrases like “so it's a yes.” Also correct small grammar (use “good at memorizing” without “as”).
Ví dụ: Yes, I am good at memorizing. For example, in college I had practical demonstrations and had to learn several procedures within three to four days, so I developed techniques to recall steps quickly.
Have you ever forgotten something important?

Ví dụ: No, I can't recall forgetting anything truly important. However, if I neglect to focus on small tasks, I sometimes miss them, but when something matters to me I make a conscious effort to remember it.
What do you need to remember in your daily life?
Điểm: 60.0Gợi ý: Be more relevant to a general daily-life question: mention practical daily reminders (appointments, tasks) and then, if you wish, add a personal / emotional point. Keep sentences clear and grammatically correct, and avoid unclear phrases like “my future is healthy.”
Ví dụ: In daily life I need to remember appointments, chores and deadlines. In addition, I try to remind myself of important personal values, such as my faith and family, which help me stay calm and focused.
How do you remember important things?
Điểm: 72.0Gợi ý: Start with a direct topic sentence describing your method, then add a concrete technique as supporting detail (e.g., making lists, using repetition, visual cues). Use linking words like “for example” to make it coherent and avoid vague phrases like “put my heart and mind into it.”
Ví dụ: I focus my attention and use practical techniques to remember important things. For example, I make checklists and repeat key points aloud, and if something is especially important I visualize the steps to help retain them.
× I consider myself as good at memorizing things because, for example, when I was in college I had my return demonstrations where we usually memorize a lot of procedures in three to four days.
✓ I consider myself good at memorizing things because, for example, when I was in college I had my return demonstrations where we usually memorized a lot of procedures in three to four days.
The phrase 'consider myself as' is nonstandard; 'consider myself' is correct. The clause 'we usually memorize' refers to past habitual action in college and should use past tense 'memorized' to match 'when I was in college.' Suggestion: remove 'as' after 'consider myself' and change present 'memorize' to past 'memorized.'
× So it's a yes.
✓ So yes, I am.
'So it's a yes' is informal and uses 'it' awkwardly without a clear referent. Recasting to 'So yes, I am' provides a clearer, grammatically complete response. Suggestion: use a subject and verb rather than a vague 'it'.
× Currently, I cannot think of something that I have forgotten that is very important.
✓ Currently, I cannot think of anything important that I have forgotten.
Use of 'something that' is awkward with 'cannot think'; 'anything' is the correct negative polarity item. Also word order 'important that I have forgotten' reads more naturally. Suggestion: replace 'something' with 'anything' and streamline word order.
× I really can't think, can't think of any circumstances, but I don't usually forget things that I really put my heart into.
✓ I really can't think of any circumstances, but I don't usually forget things that I really put my heart into.
The repetition 'I really can't think, can't think' is redundant and interrupts flow. Removing the repeated phrase yields a grammatical, natural sentence. Suggestion: avoid unnecessary repetition.
× I think the only thing that I should remember in my daily life is that Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ loves me.
✓ I think the only thing that I should remember in my daily life is that Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ love me.
Subject 'Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ' is plural, so the verb should be 'love' not 'loves.' Suggestion: ensure verb agrees with compound subject.
× I am very dearly daughter and sister, so I don't really have to worry about anything because my future is healthy.
✓ I am a dearly loved daughter and sister, so I don't really have to worry about anything because my future looks secure.
'Very dearly daughter and sister' is ungrammatical. 'Dearly loved' correctly modifies 'daughter and sister.' Also 'my future is healthy' is an odd collocation; use 'looks secure' for intended meaning. Suggestion: use appropriate adjective phrases and idiomatic collocations.
× I feel like for me what I do to remember important things is to put my heart and mind into it, because honestly, if I try to grasp, fully grasp it, it won't be hard to remember it.
✓ I feel that what I do to remember important things is put my heart and mind into them, because honestly, if I try to fully grasp them, they won't be hard to remember.
'Feel like for me' is wordy and awkward; 'feel that' is clearer. Use 'put my heart and mind into them' to match plural 'things.' 'Try to grasp, fully grasp it' has misplaced comma and singular 'it'; combine to 'try to fully grasp them.' Ensure pronoun number consistency and smoother word order.
