Music— Part 1 Báo cáo

Gợi ý: Be more concise and correct grammar. Start with a clear topic sentence, then give one or two specific reasons and an example. Avoid repetition (e.g., "happy" repeated) and fix grammar (subject–verb agreement and articles). Use linking words like "because" and "however" to connect ideas.

Ví dụ: I prefer happy music. Because it lifts my mood and makes me feel energetic, I usually choose upbeat songs when I want to relax or go for a walk. However, I sometimes listen to sad music when I need to reflect.

Gợi ý: Give a concise direct answer then explain with a specific reason and an example. Correct sentence structure and eliminate unclear phrases (e.g., "make me feel like them"). Use linking words such as "because" or "for example".

Ví dụ: Yes, definitely — happy music makes me feel more excited because of its fast tempo and upbeat rhythm. For example, when I hear energetic pop songs I feel motivated to exercise and my mood immediately improves.

Gợi ý: Answer directly and politely, then give a brief reason and a correct explanation of past decisions. Avoid irrelevant or unclear words ("Daddy") and fix grammar ("decided me" → "decided that I should"). Use linking words like "so" or "because".

Ví dụ: No, I haven't taken any professional music classes. My parents thought it was better for me to focus on my schoolwork because I didn't enjoy practicing instruments, so I concentrated on academics instead.

Gợi ý: Be concise and organize your answer: state typical habits, then add exceptions with linking words. Reduce repetition ("music" repeated) and avoid contradictory phrases ("sometimes... I always"). Use specific examples and time words ("usually", "occasionally").

Ví dụ: Yes, I often listen to music while driving, and occasionally I play it when I’m studying or doing housework. However, I usually avoid music when I need to concentrate deeply on difficult tasks.

× I think that both sad music and happy music are good, but always prefer happy music over sad music because happy music always make me feel joyful and happy.

✓ I think that both sad music and happy music are good, but I always prefer happy music over sad music because happy music always makes me feel joyful and happy.

Subject-verb agreement with present simple: the singular noun phrase 'happy music' requires the verb form 'makes' (adds -s). Also the subject 'I' was missing before 'always prefer', so add 'I' to form a complete clause. Suggestion: include the subject and use third-person singular verb endings with singular nouns in present simple.

× What a sad music not necessarily make me sad, but it just doesn't make me feel as happy.

✓ Sad music does not necessarily make me sad, but it just doesn't make me feel as happy.

Original sentence has incorrect exclamation 'What a' and missing auxiliary for negation in present simple. Use 'Sad music does not necessarily make me sad' with auxiliary 'does' plus base verb 'make' for negative statements. Also maintain parallel structure: 'doesn't make me feel as happy.' Suggestion: remove 'What a' and use proper negation with 'does not'.

× Yes, definitely. Happy music always make me feel more excited than sad music.

✓ Yes, definitely. Happy music always makes me feel more excited than sad music.

Subject-verb agreement: 'happy music' is treated as singular, so in present simple the verb requires -s ('makes'). Suggestion: add -s for third-person singular subjects in present simple.

× Happy music always make me feel like them. Butterfly.

✓ Happy music always makes me feel like butterflies.

The original uses incorrect pronoun 'them' and a fragmented noun 'Butterfly.' To express a simile about feeling fluttery, use plural 'butterflies' and a complete sentence. Also apply third-person singular 'makes'. Suggestion: use clear similes and correct countable nouns.

× Some really really good sound I like that have that kind of effect.

✓ Some really, really good sounds that I like have that kind of effect.

Word order and agreement errors: 'Some really really good sound I like that have...' is ungrammatical. Use 'sounds' plural to match 'have', place relative clause 'that I like' after 'sounds', and add commas for emphasis. Suggestion: reorder to 'Some really, really good sounds that I like have that kind of effect.'

× Unfortunately, I have not taken any professional music classes, and unlike many kids, I'm not good at playing musical instruments at all.

✓ Unfortunately, I have not taken any professional music classes, and unlike many kids, I'm not good at playing musical instruments at all.

Sentence is grammatically acceptable regarding tense and structure; no correction needed. Present perfect 'have not taken' correctly expresses experience up to now. No change required.

× Playing in musical instruments is particularly hard and boring for me, so my parents just decided me to concentrate on school Daddy.

✓ Playing musical instruments is particularly hard and boring for me, so my parents just decided I should concentrate on school.

Remove unnecessary preposition 'in' after 'playing' and use correct object and structure after 'decided': 'decided I should' or 'decided for me to' (prefer 'decided I should'). Also 'Daddy' is inappropriate here; likely unnecessary. Suggestion: say 'Playing musical instruments...' and 'decided I should concentrate on school.'

× Sometimes, but not always. I do. I always listen to music when I'm driving, but in other scenarios I listen to the music much less.

✓ Sometimes, but not always. I always listen to music when I'm driving, but in other situations I listen to music much less.

Minor phrasing: 'scenarios' is odd here—'situations' fits better. Also drop the article 'the' before 'music' when speaking generally. Maintain present simple correctly. Suggestion: use 'situations' and general noun without 'the'.

× But occasionally I do listen to the music while I'm studying or doing housework as well.

✓ But occasionally I do listen to music while I'm studying or doing housework as well.

Remove the definite article 'the' before 'music' when referring to music in general. Present continuous 'I'm studying' is correct for actions in progress. Suggestion: say 'listen to music' rather than 'listen to the music.'
