Chatting— Part 1 Report

Suggestion: Be more grammatically accurate and concise. Start with a clear topic sentence, correct verb forms and prepositions, and quantify naturally. Avoid unnecessary words like extra articles and awkward phrasing.

Example: Yes, I enjoy chatting with my friends. In fact, I spend about one-third of my day talking with them, usually catching up on daily events and sharing ideas.

Suggestion: Organize your answer with a topic sentence then specific examples. Use appropriate plural/singular forms and linking words to make the response coherent. Mention which topics are most common and why.

Example: We talk about a variety of topics, such as jobs, relationships and marriage. However, most conversations focus on work and politics because we often discuss career plans and current events.

Suggestion: Give a direct topic sentence and then a brief reason with a linking word. Use more natural vocabulary (opinions, perspectives) and avoid repeating words.

Example: I prefer chatting in a group because you get more opinions and perspectives. Also, group conversations are livelier and can help me see different sides of an issue.

Suggestion: Start with a clear preference, then give two specific reasons linked with connectors. Avoid repetition and fix grammar (prefer to communicate, gestures).

Example: I prefer to communicate face-to-face because you can read facial expressions and body language. In contrast, social media only provides text or short messages, which can be misinterpreted.

Suggestion: Make a concise distinction between arguing and debating, using correct sentence structures and linking words. Provide a brief example of how debates remain respectful.

Example: I don't usually argue with my friends; we prefer to debate. For instance, we each present our opinions calmly and listen to each other, which helps us understand different viewpoints without getting angry.

× Yeah, I like the chatting with the friends in.

✓ Yeah, I like chatting with friends.

The sentence uses unnecessary definite article 'the' and extra preposition 'in'. English does not require 'the' before general nouns like 'chatting' or 'friends' here. Remove 'the' and 'in' to make it natural: 'I like chatting with friends.'

× In fact, I used to 1/3 of my day with my friends by chatting.

✓ In fact, I spend about one third of my day chatting with my friends.

The original mixes 'used to' (habit in the past) with a present habit. Use present simple 'spend' for current routine. Express fraction as 'one third' and place 'chatting with my friends' as a gerund phrase of purpose/means.

× I usually chat about many things like job, relationship, marriage etcetera.

✓ I usually chat about many things like jobs, relationships, marriage, etcetera.

Plural nouns are needed when speaking generally about categories ('jobs', 'relationships'). Also add a comma before 'etcetera' and keep parallel structure in the list.

× Most of the talk is bounded by this topics and most we talk about job sector or politics.

✓ Most of the conversation is limited to these topics, and mostly we talk about the job sector or politics.

Use 'conversation' instead of 'talk' for natural collocation, 'limited to' not 'bounded by', plural demonstrative 'these topics', and 'mostly' for frequency. Include article 'the' with 'job sector' for specificity.

× I prefer communicate face to face because by talking face to face we can see another person's gesture or expression, body language, etcetera.

✓ I prefer to communicate face to face because when talking face to face we can see another person's gestures, expressions, body language, etcetera.

Use the infinitive 'to communicate' after 'prefer'. Use 'when' instead of 'by' to indicate timing. Use plural 'gestures, expressions' for natural English and keep parallel nouns.

× If we go and so talk on social media, we'll just have their answer, but they're not there.

✓ If we talk on social media, we only get their replies, but they are not physically present.

Remove awkward 'go and so' construction; 'only get their replies' is clearer than 'just have their answer'. Use 'physically present' to clarify contrast.

× Body language or gesture.

✓ We cannot see their body language or gestures.

The fragment lacks a verb and clear subject. Combine with previous sentence or make a complete sentence: 'We cannot see their body language or gestures.'

× Not like argue with my friends.

✓ I don't argue with my friends.

The fragment lacks auxiliary 'do' and subject pronoun. Use negative present simple 'I don't argue' for habitual behaviour.

× I like to debate with my friends.

✓ I like to debate with my friends.

This sentence is grammatically correct and fits the allowed grammar types, so no change is necessary. (Included for completeness.)

× I from my own opinion, they throw their own opinion so we do but not argue.

✓ I state my own opinion, they state theirs, so we discuss but do not argue.

Original has incorrect word order and pronoun use. Use 'state my own opinion' and 'they state theirs' to avoid repetition. 'We discuss but do not argue' conveys intended meaning and corrects verb forms and conjunction use.
