Part 1

Examiner

How often do you wear T-shirts?

Candidate

I usually wear T-shirts almost every day because they make me feel very refreshed when you go out. I usually wear loser items such as jackets and sweaters, but soon after coming back to my accommodation I immediately change to T-shirts.

Examiner

Do you often buy T-shirts?

Candidate

No, I don't usually buy T-shirts myself, mainly because I'm not good at selecting clothes and fashion items. Instead, my wife is very good at selecting suitable items for me, so she sometimes goes out and buys them.

Examiner

How fashionable are T-shirts for older people in your country?

Candidate

I definitely think T-shirts are generally considered as more fashionable items now than situation in 10 or 20 years ago, mainly because big companies such as Uniqlo and ASICS offer fashionable T-shirts, especially for the older people.

Examiner

Did you wear T-shirts when you were a kid?

Candidate

Yes, definitely. I remember well that I wore T-shirts almost every day, mainly because I played baseball in my childhood and had to wear cooler items rather than jackets and sweaters. In addition, my parents sometimes bought me T-shirts of my favorite baseball team, which were my treasures.

Suggestion: Good structure and clear reason. Improve by using varied vocabulary and a linking word for flow. Be slightly more specific about frequency or occasions to enrich the answer.

How fashionable are T-shirts for older people in your country?

Score: 74.0

Suggestion: Start with a clear topic sentence and simplify phrasing. Correct awkward phrasing like 'than situation in 10 or 20 years ago' to 'than 10 or 20 years ago'. Add one specific example of how styles have changed and use linking words.

Example: T-shirts are more fashionable for older people now than they were 10 or 20 years ago. For example, brands like Uniqlo and ASICS produce tailored T-shirts with subtle colors and better cuts, so older adults feel comfortable wearing them for casual and semi-casual occasions.

Example: Yes, I wore T-shirts almost every day as a child because I played baseball and needed lighter clothes for practice. Also, my parents sometimes bought me T-shirts of my favorite baseball team, which I treasured and wore with pride.

Grammar

Present tense issue

× I usually wear T-shirts almost every day because they make me feel very refreshed when you go out.

I usually wear T-shirts almost every day because they make me feel very refreshed when I go out.

The pronoun 'you' is inappropriate in this personal statement; the speaker should use 'I' to match subject and maintain consistent present-tense narration. Use 'I go out' to refer to the speaker's own experience.

Incorrect use of adjectives or adverbs

× I usually wear loser items such as jackets and sweaters, but soon after coming back to my accommodation I immediately change to T-shirts.

I usually wear looser items such as jackets and sweaters, but soon after coming back to my accommodation I immediately change into T-shirts.

'Loser' is the wrong word (means someone who fails); the comparative adjective 'looser' (more loose) is required to describe clothing. Also, the correct verb phrase is 'change into' when switching clothes. Keep present-tense simple for habitual actions.

Present tense issue

× No, I don't usually buy T-shirts myself, mainly because I'm not good at selecting clothes and fashion items.

No, I don't usually buy T-shirts myself, mainly because I'm not good at choosing clothes and fashion items.

While 'selecting' is not strictly wrong, 'choosing' is the more natural verb in this context. This is a stylistic improvement to match common present-tense usage expressing habit.

Present tense issue

× Instead, my wife is very good at selecting suitable items for me, so she sometimes goes out and buys them.

Instead, my wife is very good at choosing suitable items for me, so she sometimes goes out and buys them.

Change 'selecting' to the more natural 'choosing' for everyday conversational English. Tense and subject-verb agreement are correct.

Incorrect use of prepositions

× I definitely think T-shirts are generally considered as more fashionable items now than situation in 10 or 20 years ago, mainly because big companies such as Uniqlo and ASICS offer fashionable T-shirts, especially for the older people.

I definitely think T-shirts are generally considered more fashionable now than they were 10 or 20 years ago, mainly because big companies such as Uniqlo and ASICS offer fashionable T-shirts, especially for older people.

Remove 'as' after 'considered' (correct construction: considered + adjective). Replace 'situation in 10 or 20 years ago' with 'they were 10 or 20 years ago' to form a correct comparison. Drop 'the' before 'older people' because a general category does not require the definite article. These changes fix comparative structure and preposition/article use.

Past tense issue

× I remember well that I wore T-shirts almost every day, mainly because I played baseball in my childhood and had to wear cooler items rather than jackets and sweaters.

I remember well that I wore T-shirts almost every day, mainly because I played baseball in my childhood and had to wear cooler clothes instead of jackets and sweaters.

'Items' is acceptable but 'clothes' is more natural. Replace 'rather than' with 'instead of' for clearer contrast in this context. The past tense usage is correct overall; these adjustments improve naturalness.

Incorrect use of prepositions

× In addition, my parents sometimes bought me T-shirts of my favorite baseball team, which were my treasures.

In addition, my parents sometimes bought me T-shirts of my favorite baseball team, which were treasures to me.

The original 'my treasures' is grammatically possible but sounds odd; 'treasures to me' or 'my treasures when I was a child' clarifies possession and perspective. This change improves idiomatic expression and prepositional clarity.
