Ví dụ: Yes, my favourite food has changed since I was a child. As a child I ate many different foods, and because my mother was busy I often tried ready-made foods. For example, after trying fried chicken several times, it became my favourite for a while, but now I sometimes prefer healthier options.
× Is mine sounds rain, but I am until, uh, fast foods, especially uh, fried chicken and hamburger.
✓ My favorite food is fast food, especially fried chicken and hamburgers.
The original sentence misuses pronouns and subject placement. 'Is mine sounds rain' is incorrect; use 'My favorite food is'. 'I am until' is meaningless here. Use plural 'hamburgers' for general preference. Suggestion: Start with 'My favorite food is...' then list items using correct plural forms and article usage.
× The food help me feel at ease, uh, after a long busy day.
✓ The food helps me feel at ease after a long, busy day.
Subject-verb agreement error: 'food' is singular, so the verb must be 'helps'. Also add commas between adjectives 'long, busy'. Suggestion: Ensure verb agrees with subject and punctuate adjective lists.
× Uh, for example, in the weekend, I usually go uh, with my dinner, uh, with my friend to try out, uh, even more fast food.
✓ For example, on weekends I usually go out to eat with my friend to try more fast food.
Preposition and idiom errors: use 'on weekends' not 'in the weekend'; 'go out to eat' is idiomatic; 'with my dinner' is incorrect. Remove filler words. Suggestion: Use correct prepositions and common expressions like 'go out to eat with my friend'.
× Wells when I was young I am immersed into sweetcake.
✓ Well, when I was young I was obsessed with cakes.
Tense and word choice: 'I am immersed into' is incorrect for past; use past 'was'. 'Sweetcake' is not standard; use 'cakes' or 'sweet cakes' and 'was obsessed with' or 'loved'. Suggestion: Use past tense consistently when talking about childhood.
× I like them because they taste well and make me happy.
✓ I liked them because they tasted good and made me happy.
Pronoun and tense consistency: 'I like them' should be past 'I liked them' since speaking about childhood. 'Taste well' is incorrect collocation; use 'tasted good'. Suggestion: Maintain past tense and use natural adjectives/adverbs.
× Every weekend my mother usually buy me buy cake for me to treat me as a meal so that I love this umm I remember this taste very very well.
✓ Every weekend my mother usually bought me cake to treat me, so I loved it; I remember the taste very well.
Verb tense and redundancy: 'buy' should be past 'bought'. Remove duplicate 'buy' and redundant 'for me'. Use 'loved it' to match past context and 'remember the taste' for clarity. Suggestion: Simplify sentence and keep tense consistent.
× Is depend on the reason.
✓ It depends on the reason.
Missing subject and incorrect verb form: Use 'It depends' as correct phrase. Suggestion: Always include a subject and ensure verb form matches.
× In the spring I eat chicken, in the summer I eat ice cream, in the winter I eat soup.
✓ In spring I eat chicken, in summer I eat ice cream, and in winter I eat soup.
Articles and parallel structure: 'In the spring' is acceptable but 'in spring' is more natural in this context; add 'and' for final item in the list for parallelism. Suggestion: Keep parallel structure when listing seasonal habits.
× Uh, trying out new food uh, make me feel happy and can be a new experience for me in the future.
✓ Trying out new foods makes me feel happy and can be a new experience for me in the future.
Subject-verb agreement and count nouns: 'Trying out new food' should be 'Trying out new foods' or 'new food' as an uncountable concept; verb must be 'makes' for singular gerund subject. Suggestion: Use 'makes' with gerund subjects and pluralize 'foods' if referring to different items.
× When I was a child, I can eat so many new food because my mother is busy, so that my favorite food is change so much when I try a new food.
✓ When I was a child, I could try many new foods because my mother was busy, so my favorite food changed a lot when I tried something new.
Modal and tense errors: 'can' should be past 'could'; 'is busy' should be past 'was busy'; 'food' should be plural 'foods'; 'is change' incorrect—use past 'changed'. Suggestion: Use past modal 'could' and keep past tense consistent.
× For example, I remember eating fried chicken so that is become my favorite food and so on.
✓ For example, I remember eating fried chicken, which became my favorite food.
Incorrect clause linking and tense: 'so that is become' is ungrammatical; use 'which became'. Remove 'and so on' as vague. Suggestion: Use relative clauses for explanations and past tense 'became' for past events.
