Opportunities— Part 1 Báo cáo

Gợi ý: Your answer is relevant and includes specific activities, such as painting and dancing. However, there are several grammar and word-choice problems: say “I usually attended art clubs” instead of “I do usually attend arts clubs,” “I really enjoyed doing art” instead of “I really find of doing art,” and “a lot of stuff related to art” instead of “a lot of stuffs that is related to arts.” The final sentence is incomplete, so explain why you decided to take a dance class. Use a clear structure: answer the question directly, give examples, and then explain your reasons.

Ví dụ: Yes, I had several opportunities to try new activities as a child. I usually attended art clubs because I really enjoyed painting and doing other creative activities. Later, I decided to take a dance class as well because I wanted to improve my coordination and meet new people.

Gợi ý: You express a clear opinion and give a reason, but some phrases are unnatural or unclear. Say “we only live once” rather than “life is only one,” and replace “If it gives you a chance to try that” with “Trying new activities can.” The phrase “elevate your mood or some interest” needs clearer meaning; for example, explain that new activities can improve your mood or help you discover interests. Add a specific example and use linking words such as “for example” or “as a result.”

Ví dụ: Yes, I think people should try a variety of activities because we only live once. Trying new things can improve our mood and help us discover interests that we did not know we had. For example, someone might try photography or volunteering and eventually find a hobby or even a career they really enjoy.

× I do usually attend arts clubs because I really find of doing art, painting and a lot of stuffs that is related to arts.

✓ I usually attended art clubs because I was really fond of doing art, painting, and a lot of stuff related to art.

The question asks about childhood, so the past tense is needed: attended and was. The expression find of is incorrect; the correct expression is be fond of. Stuff is an uncountable noun, so it does not take the plural form stuffs. Related to art is also more natural than related to arts in this context.

× I do usually attend arts clubs because I really find of doing art, painting and a lot of stuffs that is related to arts.

✓ I usually attended art clubs because I was really fond of doing art, painting, and a lot of stuff related to art.

The adjective fond must be used with the verb be and the preposition of: be fond of doing something. Find of is not a correct adjective expression.

× I do usually attend arts clubs because I really find of doing art, painting and a lot of stuffs that is related to arts.

✓ I usually attended art clubs because I was really fond of doing art, painting, and a lot of stuff related to art.

Stuff is an uncountable noun when it means materials, activities, or things in general. Therefore, use a lot of stuff, not a lot of stuffs.

× I eventually decided to take a class and dance too because I think.

✓ I eventually decided to take a dance class too because I thought it would be enjoyable.

The original sentence is incomplete because because introduces a reason, but the following clause does not express a complete idea. Add a complete clause after because. Since the story is about the past, thought is more appropriate than think.

× Well, I think yeah, because life is only one and you should try everything that you want.

✓ Well, yes, I think so, because we only have one life and you should try everything you want to try.

The expression life is only one is not a natural English sentence structure. Use we only have one life. The phrase everything you want to try is also clearer and more complete than everything that you want.

× If it gives you a chance to try that really helps you to elevate your mood or some interest that you had as a child, you should really take part.

✓ If something gives you the chance to try something that really improves your mood or helps you develop an interest, you should definitely take part.

The original sentence has an unclear structure because that does not clearly refer to the correct noun, and the phrase or some interest is incomplete. Use clear subjects and parallel verb phrases, such as improves your mood or helps you develop an interest.
