Paper— Part 1 Báo cáo

Gợi ý: Be careful with tense consistency and sentence structure. Start with a clear topic sentence in past tense, then give one or two specific examples using linking words. Correct small grammar errors (e.g., "didn't have" not "don't have", "wrote" not "write") and avoid repetition. Keep answers within 3–4 sentences.

Ví dụ: Yes, I used to make paper crafts as a child, especially for my parents' birthdays. For example, I often made handmade birthday cards and simple paper flowers to show my appreciation. Because I couldn't afford bought gifts, I put effort into decorating them with drawings and heartfelt messages.

Gợi ý: Organize your answer: state the main activity, then give supporting details with clear linking words. Fix unclear phrases and vocabulary mistakes (e.g., "bore me this paper and color pants" is unclear — likely "bring me some paper and colored pens"). Keep sentences concise and coherent.

Ví dụ: I enjoyed drawing on paper when I was a child. In fact, my grandfather often took me to the park, where he would bring me paper and colored pens and teach me how to sketch people we saw. Those outings helped me practice drawing and sparked my interest in art.

Gợi ý: Clarify vocabulary ("stereotype" is incorrect here — use "value" or "appreciate") and use correct pronouns/gender consistency ("her" vs "him"). Combine short fragments into full sentences and use linking words to sequence events (e.g., "For example").

Ví dụ: Yes, I still value handwritten letters and think they're important. For example, I recently wrote a farewell letter to a close friend who is going to study in the UK to thank her for our friendship and wish her success. I find letters feel more personal than messages.

Gợi ý: Be more concise and avoid filler words like "Um." Provide a clear answer then give a specific example; correct pronoun references (e.g., "her mum" unclear — say "my friend's mother"). Use linking words like "for example" to connect idea and evidence.

Ví dụ: Yes, I believe some people still keep handwritten letters. For example, my friend's mother kept every letter my father wrote her since they first met, and I also save all the letters my friends have written me.

Gợi ý: Fix typos ("pants" → "pens") and improve cohesion by using linking words (e.g., "so", "therefore"). Make sentences grammatically correct and complete, and avoid trailing fragments like "and it's just less." Offer a brief reason for your preference.

Ví dụ: No, I don't carry paper and pens anymore. These days I usually bring my laptop or an iPad to school, and if I need to take quick notes I type on my phone because it's faster and more convenient.

× I have made crafts with paper when I was a kid, especially during my parents' birthday.

✓ I made crafts with paper when I was a kid, especially for my parents' birthdays.

This sentence mixes present perfect ('I have made') with a specific past time ('when I was a kid'), which is incorrect. Use simple past ('I made') for actions completed at a definite past time. Also 'parents' birthday' should be plural 'parents' birthdays' or 'my parents' birthday' corrected to 'for my parents' birthdays' for clarity.

× So back when I was a kid I don't have the money to buy them gifts so I was just write them birthday cards or Mother's Day or on Father's Day to show them how grateful I am for everything

✓ So back when I was a kid I didn't have the money to buy them gifts, so I just wrote them birthday cards or cards for Mother's Day or Father's Day to show how grateful I was for everything.

The sentence mixes past context with present-tense verbs. Use past tense ('didn't have', 'wrote', 'was') for actions in the past. Also 'write them birthday cards' should be 'wrote them birthday cards' and 'Mother's Day or on Father's Day' simplified to 'cards for Mother's Day or Father's Day'.

× I loved drawing on paper when I was a kid.

✓ I loved drawing on paper when I was a kid.

This sentence is correct; it uses simple past to describe a past habit. No change needed.

× I remember how my grandfather always took me to the park and we would just go people watching because I was an active child back then and he would bore me this paper and color pants and taught me how to draw

✓ I remember how my grandfather always took me to the park and we would just go people-watching because I was an active child back then; he would give me paper and colored pens and taught me how to draw.

The original has several issues: 'go people watching' should be hyphenated 'people-watching' as a compound noun, and 'bore me this paper and color pants' is incorrect word choice and order. It should be 'give me paper and colored pens'. Use clear clause separation (semicolon or conjunction) and keep past tense ('taught').

× I stereotype physical letters and I think it's really important.

✓ I cherish physical letters and I think they're really important.

The verb 'stereotype' is incorrect in context; likely intended 'cherish' or 'value'. Also 'it’s really important' refers to letters (plural), so use 'they're' or reword as 'I think physical letters are really important.'

× In fact, I just wrote one recently. A really close friend of mine. She is going to study abroad in the UK. So I wrote him a little a little farewell letter to show her how grateful I am to have met her and wish her all the best.

✓ In fact, I just wrote one recently to a really close friend of mine. She is going to study abroad in the UK, so I wrote her a little farewell letter to show how grateful I am to have met her and to wish her all the best.

Sentence fragments and wrong pronouns: 'A really close friend of mine.' should be attached to previous sentence. 'I wrote him' conflicts with 'she' — use 'her'. Remove duplicate 'a little'. Keep tense consistent: present 'is going' is fine; use infinitive 'to wish' for parallel structure.

× Um, I think they do. At least the people I know they keep handwritten letters these days.

✓ Um, I think they do. At least the people I know keep handwritten letters these days.

Redundant subject 'the people I know they' is ungrammatical. Remove one subject so the clause reads 'the people I know keep...'.

× I know that her mum kept all the letters my dad wrote her ever since they met and I personally definitely keep all the letters my friends wrote me.

✓ I know that her mum kept all the letters my dad wrote her ever since they met, and I personally definitely keep all the letters my friends wrote me.

The sentence is mostly acceptable, but maintain tense consistency: 'kept' is past and 'ever since they met' suggests continuation — consider 'has kept' if the mum still keeps them. If describing past habit, 'kept' is fine. No pronoun errors remain. Suggested clearer version: 'I know that her mum has kept all the letters my dad wrote her since they met, and I personally keep all the letters my friends have written me.'

× I don't carry paper and pants with me anymore even when I go to school I would just carry my laptop or probably an iPad if I really have the urge to write something down.

✓ I don't carry paper and pens with me anymore. Even when I go to school I just carry my laptop or maybe an iPad if I really have the urge to write something down.

'pants' is the wrong word; should be 'pens'. Run-on sentence; split into two. 'Probably' better as 'maybe' here. Use present simple 'I just carry' for habitual action.

× I would just type on my phone. It's more convenient that way and it's just less.

✓ I just type on my phone. It's more convenient that way and it's just less hassle.

'I would just type' suggests conditional; use simple present for habitual action: 'I just type'. The phrase 'it's just less' is incomplete; add a noun like 'hassle' or 'trouble' to complete meaning.
