Gifts— Part 1 Báo cáo

Gợi ý: Be more concise and correct grammar. Start with a clear topic sentence, avoid filler sounds, and use past/simple present forms correctly. Add one clear supporting detail and a short result. Keep it to 2–3 sentences.

Ví dụ: Yes, I think I'm fairly good at giving gifts because I try to match presents to a person's hobbies and needs. For example, I recently gave my sister a cookbook since she enjoys cooking, and she was really pleased.

Gợi ý: Improve grammar and sentence flow. Use plural forms and linking words to make ideas coherent. Start with a direct statement, then provide 1–2 specific examples and use connectors like 'for example' or 'also'.

Ví dụ: I usually give gifts on special occasions, such as birthdays and wedding anniversaries, because they are good chances to show I care. For example, I buy small presents for my parents on their birthdays and give simple gifts to friends at Christmas or when they graduate.

Gợi ý: Make the structure clearer and correct verb forms. State the two factors as a topic sentence, then briefly explain how each factor affects your choice using linking words like 'because' or 'so'.

Ví dụ: I mainly consider two things: my relationship with the person and their needs. Because of this, I choose a more personal or expensive present for close family, while budget and practicality guide gifts for acquaintances.

Gợi ý: Correct tense and word choice, remove repetition and fillers. Use a clear past reference and contrast with the present using 'recently' or 'in recent years'. Keep it to two sentences.

Ví dụ: Yes. When I was younger I used to make birthday cards for my grandparents, but in recent years I haven't made any handmade crafts.

Gợi ý: Answer directly and use clearer grammar and connectors. Start with a direct opinion, then give 1–2 reasons using linking words like 'because' or 'for example'. Avoid repetitions.

Ví dụ: No, I don't think expensive gifts express feelings better, because shared experiences matter more. For example, spending time together, celebrating with photos, and having meaningful conversations often show care more than an expensive present.

× I think I'm fairly good at giving gift because I try to think about the person's hobbies and needs of, for example, my sister.

✓ I think I'm fairly good at giving gifts because I try to think about the person's hobbies and needs, for example, my sister's.

'Gift' should be plural 'gifts' when speaking generally. Also 'needs of, for example, my sister' is awkward; use 'for example, my sister's' to show possession. Suggestion: when speaking generally about a countable noun, use plural (gifts). Use possessive ('s) for 'sister'.

× Uh, my I recently gave my sister a nice cookbook because she likes cooking and, uh, she was really happy.

✓ I recently gave my sister a nice cookbook because she likes cooking, and she was really happy.

There's an extra 'my' and unnecessary filler words that break sentence flow. Remove the stray 'my' and combine clauses with a comma and 'and'. Keep tense consistent (past simple 'gave' and 'was').

× I use.

✓ [Delete sentence].

'I use.' is a sentence fragment without context or a complete verb phrase. It should be removed or completed (e.g., 'I use it often'). Suggestion: keep full verb phrases (subject + verb + object) or remove fragments.

× Well I usually give gift on special occasions like a birthday or marriage anniversary because they are good chance to show I care.

✓ Well, I usually give gifts on special occasions like birthdays or marriage anniversaries because they are a good chance to show I care.

'Give gift' should be 'give gifts' for general actions. 'A birthday or marriage anniversary' should be plural when speaking generally: 'birthdays or marriage anniversaries'. Also add the article 'a' before 'good chance'. Suggestion: use plural for general repeated events and include appropriate articles.

× I often buy a small present for my parents on their birthday and give friends simple gift and Christmas or when they graduate.

✓ I often buy a small present for my parents on their birthdays and give friends simple gifts at Christmas or when they graduate.

Prepositions and word order are incorrect. Use 'on their birthdays' for birthdays, 'at Christmas' for the holiday, and 'when they graduate' is fine. Also 'simple gift' should be plural 'simple gifts' when speaking generally. Suggestion: use 'on' with specific days, 'at' with holidays, and match pluralization for general statements.

× I mainly consider two things, my relationship with the person and their needs.

✓ I mainly consider two things: my relationship with the person and their needs.

This sentence is mostly correct but requires a colon or clearer punctuation. No pronoun error besides punctuation; kept as same pronoun 'their' to be gender-neutral. Suggestion: use punctuation to list items.

× Uh, the factor decide everything else such as a budget and the type of gift.

✓ Those factors decide everything else, such as the budget and the type of gift.

Subject-verb agreement and article use: 'factor' should be plural 'factors' or 'that factor' singular; verb must agree ('decide' -> 'decide' if plural 'factors' or 'decides' if singular). 'A budget' is acceptable but 'the budget' fits better here. Suggestion: make subject and verb agree and choose definite/indefinite articles consistently.

× Yes, I used to make a birthday card for my grandparents when I was a younger, but in recent year I don't remember making any any craft craft.

✓ Yes, I used to make birthday cards for my grandparents when I was younger, but in recent years I don't remember making any crafts.

Errors: 'a younger' incorrect comparative; use 'younger' alone. 'A birthday card' should be plural 'birthday cards' when habitual. 'In recent year' should be 'in recent years'. Repetition 'any any craft craft' remove duplicates and pluralize to 'crafts'. Maintain past habit with 'used to' and present perfect for recent period 'don't remember making'. Suggestion: use correct comparative/adjective forms and pluralize habitual items.

× Do expensive gifts better express your feelings?

✓ Do expensive gifts better express your feelings?

This question is grammatically acceptable; no change required. 'Better' correctly modifies 'express'. No error from the provided list, so left unchanged.

× Well I don't think expensive gift are well are doing feel better because sometime more like spending time together and take photos and celebrate parties together and talk with each other is very important.

✓ Well, I don't think expensive gifts make you feel better, because sometimes spending time together, taking photos, celebrating parties, and talking with each other are more important.

Multiple issues: 'gift are' should be 'gifts are' or better rephrased to 'gifts make you' for natural English; 'are well are doing feel' is ungrammatical and removed. 'Sometime' -> 'sometimes'. Use gerunds with parallel structure ('spending', 'taking', 'celebrating', 'talking') and ensure verb agreement: list of activities 'are more important' or treat as singular 'is more important' depending on emphasis. Suggestion: simplify to 'I don't think expensive gifts make you feel better; sometimes spending time together... is more important.'
