Do you often see advertisements when you are on your phone or computer?
Điểm: 85.0Gợi ý: Your answer is direct, natural, and relevant, and the examples of YouTube and social media make it specific. However, “often see lots of advertisements” is slightly repetitive. Add a brief explanation of what kind of advertisements you see or how you feel about them to develop the answer more effectively.
Ví dụ: Yes, I often see advertisements when I use my phone, especially on YouTube and social media. They are usually related to clothes, restaurants, or other products I have searched for recently. Although they can be annoying, some of them are useful because they introduce me to new products.
Is there an advertisement that made an impression on you when you were a child?
Điểm: 62.0Gợi ý: The answer includes a reason and a comparison, but “When I was shy” is incorrect in this context; you probably mean “When I was young.” Also, “back and white” should be “black and white,” and the answer should identify a particular advertisement or product rather than advertisements in general. Use a clear topic sentence followed by specific details.
Ví dụ: Yes, I remember a colorful cereal advertisement from my childhood. It featured a cartoon character and used bright, vivid colors, so it immediately caught my attention. At that time, most television programs were in black and white, which made the advertisement seem even more exciting.
Do you see a lot of advertising on trains or other transport?
Điểm: 48.0Gợi ý: You answer the question, but there are several word-choice and grammar problems. Use “public transport” instead of “public teleport,” “advertisements for general products” instead of “presents about general products,” and “women’s makeup” instead of “women makeups.” Avoid repeating “always” and give a clear, natural example of where the advertisements appear.
Ví dụ: Yes, I see a lot of advertising on public transport, especially on buses and the mass rapid transit system. The advertisements are usually placed on the walls, doors, and digital screens. Many of them promote cosmetics, restaurants, and mobile-phone plans.
Do you like advertisements?
Điểm: 52.0Gợi ý: Your main idea is clear, but “it’s allowed me to know” should be “they allow me to learn more about,” and “sophisticated about deep information” is unclear. Explain both the benefit and the disadvantage more naturally. You could say that advertisements provide useful information but sometimes exaggerate products or contain too much complicated information.
Ví dụ: Yes, I generally like advertisements because they allow me to learn about new products and special offers. However, some advertisements exaggerate the benefits or provide too much complicated information. For that reason, I usually check other reviews before buying anything.
What kind of advertising do you like?
Điểm: 65.0Gợi ý: The answer is relevant and gives a personal reason, but correct “dinking” to “drinking,” “I always be attracted” to “I am always attracted,” and “go to find” to “look for it.” Use “milk products” or a specific product such as flavored milk, and add a detail about what makes the advertisements appealing.
Ví dụ: I like advertisements for milk products because I enjoy drinking milk and trying new flavors. I am especially attracted to advertisements that show the product clearly and explain its health benefits. If I see an interesting new milk drink, I usually look for it in a convenience store.
Have you ever bought something because of an advertisement?
Điểm: 66.0Gợi ý: You provide a clear reason, but the question asks about a past experience, so use “I have bought” or describe one specific purchase instead of saying “I always buy.” Keep the tense consistent: “advertisements give me useful information.” A concrete product and result would make the answer more convincing and effective.
Ví dụ: Yes, I have bought something because of an advertisement. Last month, I saw an online advertisement for a new type of shampoo that was suitable for dry hair. After reading some reviews and seeing the discount, I decided to buy it, and I was satisfied with the result.

Advertisements is plural, so the verb should be present, not presents. Product should also be plural because you are referring to products in general. Makeup is normally an uncountable noun, so it does not usually take the plural form makeups.

× When I see a new product about milk, I always be attracted and go to find in convenience stores.
✓ When I see a new milk product, I am always attracted and go to look for it in convenience stores.
For a repeated situation in the present, use the present form am, not the base form be. The passive expression is am attracted. The verb look for also needs an object, so use it to refer to the product.
× When I see a new product about milk, I always be attracted and go to find in convenience stores.
✓ When I see a new milk product, I am always attracted and go to look for it in convenience stores.
The subject receives the attraction, so the passive form is needed. The correct structure is subject + am/is/are + past participle: I am attracted.
× When I see a new product about milk, I always be attracted and go to find in convenience stores.
✓ When I see a new milk product, I am always attracted and go to look for it in convenience stores.
