Flowers— Part 1 Report

Suggestion: Be concise and correct grammatical errors. Start with a clear topic sentence, then give one or two specific supporting details using linking words. Avoid redundancy and keep within 3–4 sentences.

Example: Yes, I love flowers. I often buy them because they create a pleasant atmosphere at home, and I took flower-arranging classes in high school, so I know how to display them attractively.

Suggestion: Reduce hesitation and repetition. Give one clear statement about the person, then add a specific example with linking words (for example, because or so). Use correct tense and pronouns.

Example: Yes, my mother loves flowers. She visits a florist once a month and arranges bouquets at home, so our house always looks beautiful.

Suggestion: Organize the answer: state the main point, then contrast with a specific example using linking words like however or but. Correct vocabulary (city centre) and plural forms.

Example: Not many — I live in the city centre, so there are few flowers around. However, when I visit my grandparents in the countryside, there are many gardens full of flowers.

Suggestion: Speak smoothly and avoid repetition. Provide a clear reason, then contrast with others using linking words such as but or although. Fix grammar (I don't take photos of flowers).

Example: I usually don't take photos of flowers because I prefer to enjoy them in the moment. However, my family often photographs flowers to share pictures with friends and relatives.

Suggestion: Be more specific and use correct expressions. Start with a clear statement, then give examples of occasions and explain significance using linking words like for example or especially.

Example: Yes. In Japan, people commonly send flowers for special occasions, for example weddings, funerals, and anniversaries. Flowers carry important cultural meanings and are used to express congratulations or condolences.

× Yes I do, I like flowers because it buys as many good feeling and atmosphere so I prefer to purchase the flowers quite often and also I took flower arrangement classes when I was high school students so I'm a little familiar with the flowers.

✓ Yes, I do. I like flowers because they bring many good feelings and create a nice atmosphere, so I prefer to buy flowers quite often. I also took flower-arrangement classes when I was in high school, so I'm a little familiar with flowers.

Pronoun and noun reference: 'it' is incorrect for plural noun 'flowers' so use 'they'. 'Buys' is wrong because subjects 'they' perform 'bring' not 'buy' in this meaning. 'Good feeling' should be plural 'good feelings'. 'Purchase the flowers' is awkward; 'buy flowers' is natural. 'When I was high school students' mixes singular and plural; correct is 'when I was in high school'. Use of articles: drop 'the' before 'flowers' in general statements. Sentence fragments combined; split into clearer sentences.

× Yes, I do. My, my mother loves the flowers. She went to the flower shop once a month and she bought many flowers to arrange the flower, which was really beautiful. And she said the flower, uh, flower setting in my house, which, uh, which uh, is really stunning in my house.

✓ Yes, my mother loves flowers. She goes to the flower shop once a month and buys many flowers to arrange, which looks really beautiful. She says the flower arrangements in my house are really stunning.

Pronoun and article errors: drop 'the' before general plural 'flowers'. Use present simple 'goes' and 'buys' for habitual actions, not past 'went' and 'bought' unless indicating past only. 'Arrange the flower' is incorrect; use 'arrange' or 'arrange them' or 'arrangements'. Repetition and filler words removed. 'Is' should agree with plural 'arrangements' so use 'are'.

× Uh, there's, uh, less flowers where I live because I live in the white center of the city. So I really, uh, see flowers in, in the city, but when I go to the rural area where I, my, my grandparents live there, my grandparents lives, there are many flowers in the place.

✓ There are fewer flowers where I live because I live in the white center of the city. I rarely see flowers in the city, but when I go to the rural area where my grandparents live, there are many flowers.

'There be' agreement: use 'there are' with plural 'flowers'. Use 'fewer' with countable nouns not 'less'. 'See' tense and adverb: 'rarely see' is correct for habitual action. 'My grandparents lives' is wrong; use 'my grandparents live' (plural subject with plural verb). Remove redundant words and correct word order.

× I don't take a photos flowers because I just, I just enjoy the seeing flowers and I want to live in the moment. So I prefer not to take photos of flowers, but my family like to my like my family like to take photos of flowers because they, uh, like to share the photos of flowers for the family and friends.

✓ I don't take photos of flowers because I just enjoy seeing them and want to live in the moment. So I prefer not to take photos of flowers, but my family likes to take photos because they like to share them with family and friends.

Article and noun number: 'a photos' is incorrect; use 'photos' without 'a'. 'Enjoy the seeing flowers' is wrong; use 'enjoy seeing them' with pronoun reference. Verb agreement: 'my family likes' (collective noun) commonly takes singular verb in this context. Use 'share them with' rather than 'share the photos of flowers for' for natural preposition use. Remove repetition.

× Yes, I live in Japan, so Japanese people send flowers and especially special events like marriage or something like that. So sending flowers really meaning for for the Japanese people.

✓ Yes, I live in Japan, and Japanese people often send flowers on special occasions such as weddings. So sending flowers is really meaningful for Japanese people.

Preposition and collocation errors: say 'send flowers on special occasions', not 'and especially special events'. 'Marriage' is better as 'weddings' or 'on a marriage' is uncommon. 'Sending flowers really meaning for' is ungrammatical; use 'is really meaningful for'. Remove duplicate word 'for'.
