Parks— Part 1 Báo cáo

Gợi ý: Give a direct response that states your childhood preference, then add one or two brief supporting details (e.g., activities you enjoyed or reasons). Keep it natural and within 3–4 sentences. Use linking words like “because” or “and” to connect ideas.

Ví dụ: Yes, I loved going to parks as a child because I enjoyed playing on the swings and meeting neighbours. I often spent weekend afternoons there, playing football with friends and having picnics with my family.

Gợi ý: Answer clearly (yes or no) and follow with a specific reason and a short example. Use linking words such as “however” or “now” to show contrast with the past if relevant. Keep responses concise and natural.

Ví dụ: Yes, I still enjoy going to parks now because they are peaceful and good for exercise. For example, I go jogging there twice a week and sometimes read on a bench when the weather is nice.

Gợi ý: State your opinion directly (yes or no) and explain why with one or two concrete points (e.g., health, environment, community space). Use linking words like “because” or “so” to make your reasoning clear.

Ví dụ: Yes, I would like to see more parks in my city because they improve air quality and provide places for families to relax. More parks would also encourage people to be active and create safer, greener neighbourhoods.

Gợi ý: Give a direct answer about whether you have a specific park in mind, then name the park or type of park and say why you want to visit it. Provide a brief plan or timeframe if possible, using linking words like “because” or “next” to add coherence.

Ví dụ: Yes, I plan to visit the new riverside park that opened downtown because it has bike paths and a lakeside café. I hope to go there next weekend with friends to cycle and have a picnic.

× I don't know

✓ I didn't know when I was a child.

The original reply 'I don't know' is grammatically correct but does not directly answer the examiner's past-tense question 'Did you like going to parks as a child?'. This is a discourse or sentence-structure issue: the response should be aligned with the question's tense and meaning. Use past tense 'did' and a past-time expression 'when I was a child' to produce a relevant answer. Suggestion: provide a clear past-tense statement (e.g., 'I didn't know' is still ambiguous; better: 'I used to like going to parks when I was a child' or 'I don't remember').

× I don't know

✓ I don't know if I still like going to parks now.

The examiner's question is in the present ('Do you still like going to parks now?'), so the student's reply should address present feelings. 'I don't know' is grammatically acceptable, but to be clearer and grammatically aligned you can expand: 'I don't know if I still like going to parks now.' This keeps present tense and directly responds to the question. Suggestion: if unsure, indicate uncertainty plus context (e.g., 'I'm not sure; I haven't been to a park recently').

× I don't know

✓ I'm not sure, but I would like to see more parks in my city.

The examiner asked 'Would you like to see more parks in your city?' which uses the modal 'would'. The reply 'I don't know' fails to directly engage the modal question. This is a pragmatic/modal-response issue: use a modal in reply, for example 'I would like' or 'I wouldn't mind'. Suggestion: give a modal-based answer that reflects preference (e.g., 'I would like to see more parks').

× I don't know

✓ I'm not sure which parks I will want to go to in the future.

The question 'Are there any parks you want to go to in the future?' asks about future intention. The student's 'I don't know' does not explicitly reference future tense. To align with the question, use a future or future-intention construction: 'I don't know which parks I will want to visit in the future' or 'I'm not sure, but maybe the new waterfront park.' Suggestion: state uncertainty with a future marker (will/would/plan to).
