Điểm: 48.0Gợi ý: Answer directly and use correct vocabulary (rules, not laws). Give one clear reason and a brief example, using a linking word to connect ideas.
Ví dụ: No, I don't think more rules would help. For instance, stricter regulations could make students feel frustrated and less motivated, which would probably lower their academic performance.

Do you prefer to have more or fewer rules at school?

Would you like to work as a teacher in a rule-free school?

× Umm, yeah, I think there are some rules for the students at my school, for example, they are not too, they are not allowed to use the mobile phones on the school premises.
✓ Umm, yeah, I think there are some rules for the students at my school; for example, they are not allowed to use mobile phones on the school premises.
Redundant 'there are' is acceptable but 'they are not too' is incorrect/incomplete. Also 'the mobile phones' is unnatural — plural general nouns normally omit the article. Use a semicolon or a short pause to join clauses and remove unnecessary words. Suggestion: Use 'there are some rules' + specific rule with 'not allowed to use mobile phones'.
× Uh, another example is that, uh, they should not go out of the schools, uh, during the school hours.
✓ Uh, another example is that they should not go out of school during school hours.
'The schools' wrongly makes the place plural; when referring to leaving the school premises in general use singular 'school' without an article. Also 'the school hours' is better as 'school hours' for general times. Suggestion: Use 'go out of school' and 'during school hours' for natural phrasing.
× Uh, I don't think student would advance would have advantages with more laws.
✓ Uh, I don't think students would have advantages with more rules.
'Student' should be plural 'students' to match general statement. 'Advance would' is redundant/incorrect and 'laws' should be 'rules' to match context. Suggestion: Use plural subjects for generalizations: 'students would'.
× Umm, because they might feel they might, they might start to feel frustrated as a result of it.
✓ Umm, because they might start to feel frustrated as a result.
Repetition of 'they might' and 'as a result of it' is awkward and wordy. 'As a result' suffices. Remove redundant pronouns and modal repetition. Suggestion: Keep sentences concise: 'they might start to feel frustrated as a result'.
× Yes, I had a really dedicated teacher when I was a master school student.
✓ Yes, I had a really dedicated teacher when I was a master's student.
'master school student' is incorrect. Use 'master's student' or 'a student in a master's program.' The possessive form 'master's' is standard. Suggestion: Use 'master's student' or 'a master's student'.
× He is my supervisor and took care of my master dissertations and as my progress was slow he he stayed up all night to help me draft the thesis and gave me the feeder box that helped me to finish.
✓ He was my supervisor and took care of my master's dissertation; as my progress was slow, he stayed up all night to help me draft the thesis and gave me feedback that helped me finish.
Mixing present 'is' with past events should be consistent; use past 'was' since describing past help. 'Master dissertations' should be singular 'master's dissertation' (or 'dissertations' if multiple). 'Feeder box' is likely 'feedback' — 'gave me feedback' is appropriate. Also add commas and split clauses for clarity. Suggestion: Keep verb tenses consistent (past) and use correct nouns like 'feedback'.
× I would rather have humorous at school.
✓ I would rather have fewer rules at school.
The sentence seems incorrect: 'humorous' is an adjective that doesn't fit. Context suggests 'fewer rules'. Use 'fewer' for countable nouns (rules). Suggestion: Replace with 'fewer rules' to express preference.
× If I have more loss, I would feel frustrated and it can be demotivating for me to focus on my studies and I would not be able to concentrate on it.
✓ If I had more rules, I would feel frustrated and it would be demotivating for me to focus on my studies, and I would not be able to concentrate on them.
'Loss' is wrong word; should be 'rules'. Use conditional form 'If I had' for hypothetical present/future. Use 'would be' rather than 'can be' to maintain conditional mood. 'Concentrate on it' is wrong pronoun — 'them' for 'studies' or better 'on my studies'. Suggestion: Use correct conditional structure: 'If I had more rules, I would...' and match pronouns to plural nouns.
× He, uh, never, he is very punctual and uh, whenever I get, uh, I, I submit my homework late, he's scolded me and uh, I was not allowed to go home until I finished them.
✓ He was very punctual, and whenever I submitted my homework late, he scolded me and I was not allowed to go home until I finished it.
Tense inconsistency: use past 'was' and 'submitted' for past events. 'He's scolded me' mixes present perfect; use past 'he scolded me'. 'Homework' is uncountable, so 'it' not 'them'. Suggestion: Keep all verbs in past tense for past experiences and match pronouns to uncountable nouns.
× I would never want to work at the ruefully school as a teacher because without rules, I would never be able to, um, control the student and they will start to act as they want and, uh, that can result in a serious accidents and I would never want to take responsibility of it.
✓ I would never want to work at a rule-free school as a teacher because without rules, I would never be able to control the students and they would start to act as they want; that could result in serious accidents and I would never want to take responsibility for that.
Multiple issues: 'ruefully school' is wrong — should be 'rule-free school'. 'Control the student' needs plural 'students'. Conditional consistency: use 'would' for hypothetical. 'Can result in a serious accidents' has article and number errors — use 'could result in serious accidents'. 'Take responsibility of' should be 'take responsibility for'. Suggestion: Use correct adjective 'rule-free', pluralize 'students', use 'would/could' for hypothetical consequences, and use 'responsibility for'.
