Advertisement— Part 1 Báo cáo

Gợi ý: Make the response grammatically correct, more concise, and directly answer the question with one clear topic sentence followed by one or two supporting details. Avoid redundancy and keep to 2–3 sentences. Use linking words like 'because' properly and correct verb forms (e.g., 'was' not 'were').

Ví dụ: I can't remember any advertisement that impressed me as a child. I found adverts annoying back then, so I usually skipped them because they interrupted my programs and seemed irrelevant to my interests.

Gợi ý: Provide a clear topic sentence, correct minor grammar, and add a linking word to contrast the two parts. Be specific about locations and use present tense consistently. Keep it to 2–3 sentences.

Ví dụ: Not really, at least not on most trains, because the Indian government generally does not allow advertising on regular trains or stations. However, I do see many ads on the metro system, especially on platforms and inside carriages.

Gợi ý: Start with a direct statement of your opinion, then give one or two specific reasons with linking words. Correct sentence structure and avoid repetition like repeating 'advertisements' unnecessarily. Use clearer phrasing for purpose and intent.

Ví dụ: No, I don't like most advertisements because I find them annoying and often manipulative. For example, many ads encourage unnecessary purchases rather than providing useful information.

Gợi ý: Give a concise topic sentence naming the type you prefer, then add a specific example and a brief reason using linking words. Use natural collocations (e.g., 'public service announcements' or 'health campaigns') and avoid extra hedging words.

Ví dụ: I prefer public service advertisements, such as health campaigns or messages about social issues, because they inform people and promote positive behaviour. For instance, a poster about hand-washing during a flu outbreak can help protect the community.

Gợi ý: Begin with a clear topic sentence using correct pronouns ('Yes, quite often'). Then explain how and give a specific example of targeted ads. Use linking words like 'for example' and correct word order ('they appear repeatedly' rather than 'they quite repeatedly').

Ví dụ: Yes, I see ads very often on my phone and computer, especially on social media. For example, if I search for shoes, I soon start seeing targeted ads for similar footwear across Facebook and Instagram.

× Honestly speaking, I won't say that there was anything advertisement that made an impression on me when I were a child because but at that time I used to think that advertisements were quite annoying and I used to skip them whenever I got a chance.

✓ Honestly speaking, I won't say that there was any advertisement that made an impression on me when I was a child, because at that time I used to think that advertisements were quite annoying and I used to skip them whenever I got a chance.

Incorrect use of 'anything' with countable noun and wrong verb agreement in past-tense clause. Use 'any advertisement' (singular countable) or 'any advertisements' and change 'were' to 'was' to match the singular subject 'I' in past tense. Also remove extraneous conjunction 'but'. Suggestion: use 'there was any advertisement' or rephrase as 'I don't think any advertisement made an impression on me when I was a child.'

× Not in my country, because the Indian government doesn't really sell out the train station or the public trains for advertising.

✓ Not in my country, because the Indian government doesn't really sell train stations or public trains for advertising.

Incorrect verb phrase 'sell out' and noun number mismatch. 'Sell out' is phrasal verb meaning to betray or run out of stock; use 'sell' and plural 'train stations' to match general statement. Subject-verb agreement 'doesn't ... sell' is correct; adjust noun number for consistency.

× But there were quite a lot of advertisements on the metro at least.

✓ But there were quite a lot of advertisements on the metro at least.

Sentence is grammatically acceptable; kept same. 'There were' correctly matches plural 'advertisements.' No correction needed.

× As I previously said, I really wasn't interested in advertisements and I am still not very interested in advertisements are saying that they are quite annoying and irritating and they don't really serve a purpose.

✓ As I previously said, I really wasn't interested in advertisements and I am still not very interested in them, as I find them quite annoying and irritating and that they don't really serve a purpose.

Original contains tense inconsistency and an incorrect clause 'advertisements are saying that'. Replace with pronoun 'them' and a reporting clause 'I find them' to express current opinion. Maintain past reference 'wasn't' and present 'am still not' appropriately. Suggestion: keep subject consistent and use clear reporting verbs like 'find'.

× Instead they try to get you to buy things that aren't really necessary.

✓ Instead, they try to get you to buy things that aren't really necessary.

Sentence is correct; only added comma for clarity. The relative clause 'that aren't really necessary' correctly modifies 'things.' No grammar change required.

× I'd like advertisements which are for the public works.

✓ I'd like advertisements that are for public works.

Use 'that' for defining relative clauses with 'advertisements.' Also remove article 'the' before 'public works' because we refer to the concept generally. Suggestion: 'advertisements that promote public works' for clarity.

× So let's say that the advertisements that raise awareness about a public or social issue or a health information would be, in my opinion, good and moral, rather than something which is just advertising or consumer products.

✓ So let's say that advertisements that raise awareness about a public or social issue or health information would be, in my opinion, good and moral, rather than advertisements that are just about consumer products.

Incorrect article use: 'a health information' should be 'health information' (uncountable). 'The advertisements' changed to 'advertisements' for generalization. Also adjusted ending to parallel structure. Suggestion: use uncountable nouns correctly and keep parallel phrasing.

× You're quite often, especially on social media platforms like Facebook or Twitter, they quite repeatedly so targeted advertisements.

✓ Quite often, especially on social media platforms like Facebook or Twitter, you see quite repeatedly targeted advertisements.

Original mixes pronouns and has sentence fragment. Removed incorrect 'You're' and 'they' and used 'you see' to match meaning. Also repositioned adverbial phrases for clarity. Suggestion: keep subject consistent and use correct verb 'see' for perceiving ads.

× So if you search about a product, you are likely to get advertisements about similar products in quite the short period of time.

✓ So if you search for a product, you are likely to get advertisements about similar products in a relatively short period of time.

Use 'search for' not 'search about'. 'In quite the short period of time' is unidiomatic; use 'in a relatively short period of time' or 'within a short period.' Suggestion: prefer 'search for' and 'within a short time.'
