Snacks— Part 1 Report

Suggestion: Keep your answer focused and grammatical. Start with a clear topic sentence saying when you usually eat snacks (e.g. evenings, between meals). Then give one or two brief reasons and an example. Use correct vocabulary (snacks not snakes) and limit to 3–4 sentences.

Example: I usually eat snacks in the late afternoon or early evening, between lunch and dinner. I prefer homemade snacks because they are healthier and I can control the ingredients. For example, I often make yogurt with fruit or baked sweet potato slices.

Suggestion: Answer directly, then explain briefly with specific reasons. Mention what makes snacks healthy (fresh ingredients, low salt/sugar) and contrast with outside/processed snacks. Use linking words (because, therefore, for example) and avoid repetition.

Example: Yes, I think snacks can be healthy if they are homemade because I use fresh, natural ingredients and avoid excess salt or sugar. For example, I make fruit salads or roasted nuts, which are more nutritious than packaged chips. Therefore, I prefer home-made snacks to outside fast food.

Suggestion: Be consistent and clear about past habits. Start with a simple past topic sentence (Yes/No) followed by specific details about frequency and types of snacks you ate, with a time reference. Use past tense and avoid contradictions.

Example: Yes, I often ate snacks when I was young, especially in the evening after school. My favourite were biscuits and fruit; my mother usually prepared a small plate for me. I remember eating them while doing homework.

Suggestion: Give a clear statement of your favourite snacks and add specific details (how they are prepared, why you like them, when you eat them). Use precise vocabulary (baked beetroot chips, roasted potatoes) and one linking phrase to expand.

Example: My favourite snacks are baked beetroot chips and roasted potato wedges because they are crunchy and tasty without being greasy. I usually season them lightly with olive oil and herbs, and I eat them in the evening or with friends as a healthier alternative to fried snacks.

× I love snakes and it gave me I prefer to eat foods, especially homemade and healthy.

✓ I love snacks, and I prefer to eat homemade, healthy food.

The student used wrong words and mixed ideas, causing a sentence structure error (Grammar Problem Type ID 26). 'Snakes' is a spelling error for 'snacks'. 'It gave me' is irrelevant and ungrammatical here. 'Foods' is plural but unnatural in this context; 'food' as an uncountable noun is correct. The corrected sentence uses parallel structure: subject 'I', verb 'prefer', and clear modifiers 'homemade, healthy'. Suggestion: proofread for word choice ('snacks' vs 'snakes') and remove irrelevant fragments. Grammar Problem Type ID: 26

× Yes, I think my my child know what I will do rather than outside food because firstly I make it at home. Certainly I use this both natural products and freshly.

✓ Yes, I think my child knows what I will do, so I prefer home-made food rather than outside food. I always use natural products and serve it fresh.

The original has repeated word 'my my' and incorrect verb form 'know' with singular 'child' (subject-verb agreement, ID 27) and awkward connectors. Also 'use this both natural products and freshly' is ungrammatical: 'use natural products' and 'serve it fresh' are appropriate. The correction fixes pronoun repetition, subject-verb agreement ('child knows'), and clarifies meaning. Suggestion: avoid repeating words, match verb form to subject, and use correct adverb/adjective forms ('fresh' as adjective for food; 'freshly' requires a verb like 'freshly made').

× No, I prefer to eat snacks when I was young. Actually I love snacks and in the evening I want.

✓ No, I did not prefer to eat snacks when I was young. Actually, I loved snacks and I wanted them in the evening.

The sentence mixes present-tense 'prefer' with past-time marker 'when I was young', causing a tense inconsistency (Grammar Problem Type ID 5). Use past tense 'did not prefer' or 'didn't prefer' to match 'when I was young'. The second part 'in the evening I want' lacks object and correct tense; changed to past 'I wanted them in the evening.' Suggestion: decide on past or present and keep verbs consistent; include objects for verbs like 'want'. Grammar Problem Type ID: 5

× The answer was made some words to it, admiring. My favorite is baked and made of beetroot and potatoes.

✓ My favorite snack is baked; it is made of beetroot and potatoes.

The first clause 'The answer was made some words to it, admiring.' is meaningless and disrupts sentence structure (Grammar Problem Type ID 26). Removing the irrelevant fragment produces a clear response. Also 'My favorite is baked and made of beetroot and potatoes' is awkward; specify 'snack' and use correct passive construction 'is made of'. Suggestion: remove unrelated phrases, state the item clearly, and use standard passive form 'made of'. Grammar Problem Type ID: 26

× I love snakes and it gave me I prefer to eat foods, especially homemade and healthy.

✓ I love snacks, and I prefer to eat food that is homemade and healthy.

In addition to sentence structure errors, 'foods' as plural is unnatural here—'food' is uncountable and preferred (Grammar Problem Type ID 1). Also 'snakes' is a misspelling of 'snacks'. Use 'food that is homemade and healthy' to convey the idea clearly. Suggestion: use uncountable 'food' when speaking generally; check spelling. Grammar Problem Type ID: 1
