Rules— Part 1 Report

Suggestion: Try to complete your sentences fully and avoid abrupt endings. Use clear and complete sentences to express your ideas naturally and effectively. For example, finish your thoughts and avoid leaving sentences hanging.

Example: Yes, there are several important rules for students to follow at my secondary school. For instance, students must queue up to buy food during recess, and our school has a very strict dress code, which includes specific requirements for female students.

Suggestion: Avoid incomplete sentences and redundancy. Make sure your ideas are fully expressed and linked logically. Use linking words to connect your points clearly.

Example: I suppose it really depends on the individual's personality. For example, students who are in their rebellious phase might find rules unnecessary and want to challenge authority more. However, other students might benefit from clearer rules because they provide structure and guidance.

Suggestion: Improve grammar and sentence structure for clarity. Use correct verb tenses and plural forms to sound more natural and effective.

Example: Yes, when I was in primary school, I had a Chinese teacher who taught Mandarin. She often stayed after class to help students and even organised tutorial classes during holidays to ensure every student understood the topics well.

Suggestion: Complete your sentences and avoid vague endings. Use precise vocabulary such as 'fewer' instead of 'lesser' for countable nouns. Finish your ideas clearly.

Example: If I had to choose, I would definitely prefer fewer rules. More rules often mean more restrictions, which can limit our creativity and imagination. By having fewer constraints, we can explore new ideas and think creatively to develop our skills.

Suggestion: Avoid unclear or incomplete sentences and pronoun errors. Use correct pronouns and complete your thoughts clearly. Also, avoid symbols or placeholders in your speech.

Example: Yes, I have a lecturer who is very strict. For example, she is skeptical about online classes because she thinks we might not be in front of the computer. Therefore, she always conducts physical classes to ensure we attend in person.

Suggestion: Improve sentence fluency and grammar. Use correct article usage and plural forms. Also, use linking words to balance your ideas.

Example: That's an interesting question. I have never thought about it before, but I suppose it might be a very interesting experience because students would have much freedom to explore their interests and be creative. However, it might also be a little chaotic.
