Shoes— Part 1 Report

Suggestion: Try to use correct verb forms and avoid redundancy. Start with a clear topic sentence, then add specific details using linking words. For example, use 'I like buying shoes because they help me express my style. Usually, I buy shoes two or three times a year.'

Example: I enjoy buying shoes because they allow me to express my personal style. Usually, I purchase new shoes two or three times a year to keep my collection updated.

Suggestion: Use correct verb forms and add linking words to make your answer more natural and coherent. For example, say 'Yes, I usually buy my shoes online because I don't like shopping at malls.'

Example: Yes, I usually buy my shoes online because I find it more convenient and I don't enjoy shopping at malls.

Suggestion: Provide a complete sentence with a topic sentence and supporting details. You can add reasons or examples to enrich your answer. For example, 'I usually spend between 200 and 600 riyals on shoes, depending on the brand and quality.'

Example: I usually spend between 200 and 600 riyals on shoes, depending on the brand and quality. For instance, I prefer to invest in comfortable shoes that last longer.

Suggestion: Start with a clear topic sentence and use linking words to explain your preference. For example, 'I prefer comfortable shoes because I usually wear them to work, where I need to be on my feet for long hours.'

Example: I prefer comfortable shoes because I usually wear them to work, where I spend many hours standing or walking. Therefore, comfort is more important to me than fashion.

× Yes, I like to buying shoes.

✓ Yes, I like buying shoes.

After the verb 'like', the correct form is either the base verb with 'to' (like to buy) or the gerund form without 'to' (like buying). 'Like to buying' is incorrect because it combines 'to' with the gerund form, which is not standard English.

× I usually buying shoes two or three times a year.

✓ I usually buy shoes two or three times a year.

The auxiliary verb 'usually' is followed by the base form of the verb 'buy'. Using 'buying' here is incorrect because 'usually' indicates a habitual action and should be followed by the base verb, not the gerund.

× Usually I buy my shoes online because I don't like to shopping at mall.

✓ Usually I buy my shoes online because I don't like shopping at the mall.

After 'like', the gerund form 'shopping' is correct, not 'to shopping'. Also, 'at mall' is missing the definite article 'the' before 'mall'.

× Usually I buy my shoes online because I don't like to shopping at mall.

✓ Usually I buy my shoes online because I don't like shopping at the mall.

The noun 'mall' requires the definite article 'the' when referring to a specific place. Omitting 'the' before 'mall' is incorrect.

× Usually I spend between 200 and 600 real.

✓ Usually I spend between 200 and 600 riyals.

The currency 'real' should be pluralized as 'riyals' when referring to an amount. Also, 'real' is the singular form; the plural is 'riyals' in Saudi Arabia.

× I prefer comfortable shoes because usually I wear shoes to go to my work.

✓ I prefer comfortable shoes because usually I wear shoes to go to work.

The word 'work' when referring to one's job does not require the definite article 'my' or 'the' before it in this context. Saying 'go to work' is the correct expression.
