Flowers— Part 1 Report

Suggestion: Your answer is generally clear but can be more natural and concise. Avoid redundancy like "Not really, but yeah" which can confuse the listener. Start with a direct response and then add supporting details using linking words for coherence.

Example: I don't particularly love flowers, but I enjoy looking at them, especially in gardens or nurseries, because they add beauty to the environment.

Suggestion: Your answer is relevant but can be improved by avoiding vague phrases like "a lot of my friends who are girls" and by using linking words to connect ideas smoothly. Also, be more specific about why they like those flowers.

Example: Yes, several of my female friends love flowers, especially rare varieties like sunflowers and different shades of roses, because they find them unique and beautiful.

Suggestion: Try to answer directly without filler words like "Uh" and avoid repeating negatives. Use linking words to connect ideas and be more specific about the types of flowers or quantity to enrich your answer.

Example: Yes, there are many flowers around where I live because my mother enjoys collecting various plants and often buys flowers from local sellers, so we have several flower plants at home.

Suggestion: Your enthusiasm is clear, but some phrases like "orthodox flowers" are unclear. Use more common vocabulary and linking words to make your answer smoother and more natural.

Example: Yes, I often take photos of flowers, especially when I come across beautiful scenes with different kinds of flowers, like sunflowers, which I particularly enjoy photographing.

Suggestion: Your answer is relevant but can be more concise and natural. Use linking words to show contrast and avoid awkward phrasing like "from a very low level to a higher level."

Example: Yes, I've noticed that sending flowers has become more popular over the years. While it was uncommon when I was young, nowadays many people exchange flowers and give bouquets on special occasions.

× I am not very keenly interested in keeping them alongside me or I'm not a collector of flowers

✓ I am not very keenly interested in keeping them with me or I'm not a collector of flowers

The preposition 'alongside' is not appropriate here; 'with' is the correct preposition to express having flowers in one's possession or close by.

× she buys a lot of flowers whenever, uh, flower seller goes by

✓ she buys a lot of flowers whenever, uh, a flower seller goes by

The sentence is missing the article 'a' before 'flower seller', which is necessary to indicate a singular countable noun.

× I am not very keenly interested in keeping them alongside me

✓ I am not very keen interested in keeping them with me

The adverb 'keenly' is incorrectly used here; 'keen' is an adjective that should be used without 'ly' in this context.
