Do you prefer sad or happy music?
Điểm: 58.0Gợi ý: Improve grammar, sentence structure and coherence. Start with a clear topic sentence that directly answers the question, then add one or two specific supporting details using linking words. Correct verb forms, countable/uncountable and word choice (e.g., "depends", "facing", "songs", "process my emotions", "energetic"). Keep it within 3–4 sentences and avoid trailing off.
Ví dụ: I prefer different kinds of music depending on the situation. For example, when I am going through a difficult time, I often listen to sad songs because they help me process my emotions. On the other hand, when I feel energetic or in a good mood, I choose upbeat, happy music to match my mood.
Does happy music make you feel more excited?
Điểm: 52.0Gợi ý: Provide a clear direct answer and then explain with specific reasons and examples. Fix grammar (e.g., "allows", "rather than feeling excited", "cheer me up", "face things better"). Use a linking word (e.g., "however", "instead") to connect ideas and keep to 2–3 sentences for clarity.
Ví dụ: Not necessarily; happy music usually helps me relax rather than making me feel more excited. However, it can lift my mood and cheer me up, which makes it easier for me to face challenges calmly.
× Personally it's depend on the situation.
✓ Personally, it depends on the situation.
The subject 'it' requires the verb in third person singular present form 'depends'. Use a comma after 'Personally' for clarity. Suggestion: use 'it depends' when talking about general situations.
× When I facing or going through difficult time, I prefer to listen to sad song which I can process my emotion whereas when I am happy or feel genetic, I.
✓ When I am facing or going through a difficult time, I prefer to listen to sad songs which help me process my emotions, whereas when I am happy or feeling energetic, I prefer upbeat music.
Multiple issues: 'facing' needs the auxiliary 'am' (present continuous) and 'difficult time' needs an article 'a'. 'Sad song' should be plural 'sad songs' to match general preference (or use 'a sad song'). 'Which I can process my emotion' is incorrect structure — use 'which help me process my emotions' (help + base verb; 'emotions' plural). 'Feel genetic' is incorrect word choice; likely 'feeling energetic'. The sentence was incomplete; added 'I prefer upbeat music' to finish the contrast. Suggestions: include auxiliary verbs for -ing forms, check noun number, and choose correct vocabulary.
× Personally, I think that happy music allow me to relax instead of. Feeling excited and sometimes we can cheer me up to facing better.
✓ Personally, I think that happy music allows me to relax instead of making me feel excited, and sometimes it cheers me up and helps me face things better.
'Allow' must be third person singular 'allows' to agree with subject 'happy music'. 'Instead of. Feeling excited' is a fragment and punctuation error; use 'instead of making me feel excited' (make + object + bare infinitive structure with -ing). 'We can cheer me up' is incorrect pronoun and structure; use 'it cheers me up' (music as subject) and 'helps me face things better' instead of 'to facing better' (use base verb 'face' with 'helps' or 'help me to face'). Suggestions: ensure subject-verb agreement, avoid sentence fragments, and use correct verb forms after expressions like 'instead of'.
