Politeness— Part 1 Báo cáo

Gợi ý: Give a direct topic sentence answering how you learned to be polite, then add one or two specific supporting details using linking words. Keep it natural and avoid fragments. For example, mention who taught you (parents, school), a specific method (modeling, rules, stories) and a brief result or feeling.

Ví dụ: I learned to be polite mainly from my parents. For instance, they always reminded me to say “please” and “thank you,” and they set an example by treating others respectfully, so I gradually copied their behavior.

Gợi ý: Respond with a clear opinion in a full sentence and then support it with one or two concise reasons, using linking words (because, so, therefore). Avoid one-word answers and fragments.

Ví dụ: Yes, I think being polite is very important because it helps people communicate smoothly and builds positive relationships; for example, polite behaviour can reduce conflicts and make teamwork easier.

× Can't help, right? Yeah, yeah.

✓ I can't remember, right? Yes, I can.

The original 'Can't help, right?' is an incomplete sentence and unclear in context; it lacks a subject and verb structure appropriate for answering 'How did you learn to be polite as a child?'. This fits 'Sentence structure errors' (ID 26). Suggestion: use a complete subject-verb phrase such as 'I can't remember' if you do not recall how, and then respond affirmatively with 'Yes, I can' or provide a brief explanation. Use full sentences with a clear subject (I) and auxiliary verb (can't/can) to be grammatically correct. Note: The instruction asked only to correct mistakes that meet the provided list; this correction addresses the sentence-structure problem by supplying a grammatically complete reply.

× Is.

✓ Yes, it is.

The single-word response 'Is.' is grammatically incomplete because it omits a subject and auxiliary verb for the question 'Do you think being polite is very important?'. This is a sentence structure error (ID 26). Correction: 'Yes, it is.' provides the subject (it) and the auxiliary verb (is) to form a complete, appropriate response. Alternatively, you can say 'Yes, I do' to emphasize the speaker's opinion. Use full responses rather than a lone verb to avoid ambiguity.
