Flowers— Part 1 Report

Suggestion: Be direct and concise. Start with a clear topic sentence answering the question (Yes/No) then give one or two specific reasons with correct vocabulary. Avoid unclear words (e.g. 'forest' seems wrong) and grammatical errors. Use linking words like 'because' or 'so' to connect ideas.

Example: Yes, I do like flowers because they brighten up a room and make people feel appreciated. For example, I enjoy roses and lilies for their scent and color, and I often choose bright yellow flowers when I want to cheer someone up.

Suggestion: Answer directly (Yes — my mother) and give a clear, specific reason with correct nouns (flowers, not photos/fireworks). Keep sentences short and use linking words such as 'because' or 'so'. Correct verb forms and possessives are important.

Example: Yes, my mother loves flowers because she enjoys arranging them at home. For instance, she always smiles when she receives a bouquet from me, so I often buy fresh tulips for her on special occasions.

Suggestion: Be precise and avoid incorrect words (e.g. 'row', 'cheese'). Start with a clear topic sentence then support it with a reason and an example. Use linking words like 'because' and check grammar (subject-verb agreement, articles).

Example: Not many. In Macau I rarely see flower displays on the streets because the city is focused on finance and commercial development. For example, most parks are paved and lack flower beds.

Suggestion: Answer clearly (Yes/No) and be specific: when and why you take photos. Use correct word choices (flowers, photographs, not 'forest' unless you mean forests) and check subject-verb agreement. Use one linking word like 'because' to connect reasons.

Example: Yes, I often photograph flowers when I go hiking because I like their colors and details. For example, last weekend I took close-up shots of wildflowers on a trail to practice composition and lighting.

Suggestion: Provide a clear, concise answer and give specific examples of occasions when flowers are sent. Use correct names for festivals (e.g. Dragon Boat Festival / Mid-Autumn Festival) and avoid repetition. Use linking words such as 'however' or 'but' correctly.

Example: Not usually. People in my country send flowers mainly for special occasions, such as Chinese New Year, weddings, or the Mid-Autumn Festival. For instance, many families give bouquets during Chinese New Year to celebrate and decorate their homes.

× I love forest.

✓ I love the forest.

Missing definite article before a singular, countable noun. 'Forest' is countable and referring to forests in general or a specific forest requires 'the'. Use 'the forest' or 'forests' depending on meaning.

× I believe that most people are satisfied that when they receive flowers.

✓ I believe that most people are satisfied when they receive flowers.

Unnecessary 'that' creates an awkward structure. Removing it yields a correct clause: 'most people are satisfied when they receive flowers.' Retain 'most people' as the quantifier.

× I think flowers represent the love and the feelings of the center to the receiver.

✓ I think flowers represent love and the giver's feelings to the recipient.

Awkward and incorrect word choices: 'the love' and 'the feelings of the center' are unnatural. Use uncountable 'love' and 'giver's feelings' for clarity; 'receiver' is better replaced by 'recipient'. This fixes adjective/noun use and clarity.

× I think the person is my mother.

✓ I think the person is my mother.

This sentence is grammatically acceptable, but 'the person' is vague. For natural speech, 'That person is my mother' or 'I think it is my mother' is clearer. No correction required under listed types.

× She really like to receive photos from my daughter.

✓ She really likes to receive flowers from my daughter.

Subject-verb agreement error: with third person singular 'She' the verb needs an -s ('likes'). Also 'photos' seems contextually wrong; likely 'flowers'. If 'photos' is intended, keep noun but still use 'likes'.

× I think the most satisfaction of receiving fireworks is that you can feel the love from the center of this gift.

✓ I think the greatest satisfaction in receiving flowers is that you can feel the love behind the gift.

Several wrong words: 'fireworks' should be 'flowers'; 'most satisfaction' is better as 'greatest satisfaction'; 'from the center of this gift' is unnatural—use 'behind the gift'. This addresses word choice and adjective usage.

× No, in Macau I can't really see any flowers in the row or in the cheese.

✓ No, in Macau I can't really see many flowers on the street or in the parks.

Original has wrong nouns 'row' and 'cheese'—likely intended 'road/street' and 'parks'. Also 'any flowers in the row' is unidiomatic; use 'many flowers on the street' or 'in parks'. Fixed article and noun usage.

× You know, Macau is a financial city, so people may not be that care about the plants and flowers.

✓ You know, Macau is a financial city, so people may not care that much about plants and flowers.

Incorrect word order and preposition use: 'not be that care about' is wrong. Correct structure is 'may not care that much about'. Also omit 'the' before plural 'plants and flowers' for general meaning.

× Oh personally I really like to take photos because I think photographs represents many meanings and have great feelings for me.

✓ Oh, personally I really like taking photos because I think photographs represent many meanings and evoke strong feelings in me.

Use gerund 'taking' after 'like'. Subject-verb agreement: 'photographs' (plural) needs 'represent'. 'Have great feelings for me' is unnatural; use 'evoke strong feelings in me'.

× So I will take photos of forest in times like hiking or something.

✓ So I take photos of forests when I go hiking or do similar activities.

Use plural 'forests' or 'of the forest' depending on meaning; 'in times like hiking' is unidiomatic—use 'when I go hiking'. Also simple present 'I take' fits habitual action better than 'I will take'.

× No, they don't do it frequently, but in some festivals like the the New Year or like the Chung Chu Middle East Festival, people will receive flowers during that period.

✓ No, they don't do it frequently, but during some festivals like the New Year or the Dragon Boat Festival, people receive flowers.

Remove duplicated 'the the'. Use 'during' rather than 'in', and use simple present 'receive' for habitual occurrences. 'Chung Chu Middle East Festival' appears mistranslated; likely 'Dragon Boat Festival' (Chung Yue/Chung Che). Use correct festival name.
