Hobby— Part 1 Báo cáo

Gợi ý: Be more concise and natural: state hobbies clearly without hesitation, use plural/singular correctly, and give one brief reason or favorite example. Avoid filler sounds like “uh.”

Ví dụ: Yes. My main hobbies are watching films and dancing. I especially enjoy watching independent dramas because they offer deep character studies, and I take salsa classes twice a week to improve my technique.

Gợi ý: Start with a clear topic sentence and add specific details using linking words. Mention when/how long you danced and how your parents supported you to make the answer more vivid.

Ví dụ: Yes. I danced as a child and often took part in school performances. For example, when I was ten my parents signed me up for a local competition and they helped me practise every weekend, which boosted my confidence.

Gợi ý: Answer directly and expand with a concise supporting detail using a linking word. Replace vague phrase “until now” with a clearer time expression and explain how you continue the hobby today.

Ví dụ: Yes, dancing is a hobby I've kept since childhood. In fact, I still dance regularly — for instance, I join a weekly dance group with my colleagues, which helps me stay fit and sociable.

Gợi ý: Be more decisive and provide a brief contrast with a specific example. Use linking words such as “however” or “but” to make the comparison clear and add one detail about family activities.

Ví dụ: No, not really. My family prefers singing — for example, we often have karaoke sessions on weekends — whereas I prefer watching films and dancing.

× I do have a hobby, uh, my hobbies are watching movies and dancing.

✓ I do have hobbies; I enjoy watching movies and dancing.

Original mixes singular 'a hobby' with plural 'my hobbies', causing inconsistency. Use either singular or plural consistently. Suggestion: remove 'a hobby' or change to 'hobbies' and rephrase to list activities clearly. Also replace comma splice with a semicolon or separate sentences for correct sentence structure.

× I did dancing as well and my parents joined me in a dance competition when I was a child.

✓ I danced as well, and my parents entered me in a dance competition when I was a child.

'Did dancing' is an unnatural use; use simple past 'danced' to describe past activity. 'Joined me in a dance competition' implies parents also competed; if meaning is that parents took part to support or entered you, 'entered me in' or 'took me to' is clearer. Keep past tense consistent for both verbs.

× It's dancing because until now I dance with my colleagues or coworkers.

✓ It's dancing because I still dance with my colleagues or coworkers.

'Until now I dance' mixes time expression with simple present; use 'still' with present simple to indicate continuing action. 'It's dancing' is acceptable as 'My hobby is dancing,' but rephrasing clarifies subject. Ensure consistent present tense usage to express ongoing hobby.

× I think no, because they sing a lot.

✓ I don't think so, because they sing a lot.

'I think no' is unnatural in English. Use negative construction 'I don't think so' to reply to whether you have the same hobbies. This fixes pronoun and sentence structure use for a natural negative response.
