Opportunities— Part 1 Báo cáo

Gợi ý: Answer directly using the past tense: “I didn’t have many opportunities.” Avoid repetition and use “new activities,” not “your activities.” Also, say “I was very shy” and “I wasn’t interested” because you are describing your childhood. Add one specific example to make the answer more developed.

Ví dụ: No, I didn’t have many opportunities to try new activities when I was a child. I was quite shy, and I wasn’t very interested in joining clubs or group activities at that time. For example, I usually stayed at home and played by myself.

Gợi ý: Give a clear opinion and complete the sentence grammatically. Use “Yes, I think people should…” rather than “Yeah, as people try…”. Support your opinion with a reason and, if possible, a specific example or result. Use a linking word such as “because” or “as a result” to make your answer more coherent.

Ví dụ: Yes, I think people should try as many different things as they can because this helps them discover their interests and abilities. For example, someone might try volunteering, cooking, or learning a language and eventually find a new passion. It can also make people more confident.

× No, I have I have no opportunities to take part in your activities when I was a child because I am very shy and I am not interested in activities at that time.

✓ No, I had no opportunities to take part in new activities when I was a child because I was very shy and was not interested in activities at that time.

The answer refers to the student’s childhood, so the verbs should be in the past tense. Use had instead of have, was instead of am, and was not interested instead of am not interested. Also, avoid repeating I have.

× No, I have I have no opportunities to take part in your activities when I was a child because I am very shy and I am not interested in activities at that time.

✓ No, I had no opportunities to take part in new activities when I was a child because I was very shy and was not interested in activities at that time.

The phrase I have I have contains an unnecessary repetition and makes the sentence structurally incorrect. State the subject and verb only once: I had no opportunities. A clear sentence structure helps the listener understand your answer more easily.

× Yeah, as people try many different things whenever they can.

✓ Yeah, people should try as many different things as they can.

The question asks whether people should try different things, so the answer should include the modal verb should. Should expresses advice or recommendation.

× Yeah, as people try many different things whenever they can.

✓ Yeah, people should try as many different things as they can.

As incorrectly introduces the sentence as if it were a dependent clause, leaving the sentence incomplete. Remove as and begin with the complete subject and verb: people should try.
