Cakes— Part 1 Report

Suggestion: Try to use more natural and grammatically correct sentences. For example, say "I enjoy eating cakes and other sweet foods occasionally" and "it feels like a special treat". Also, avoid redundancy by combining ideas smoothly.

Example: Yes, I enjoy eating cakes and other sweet foods occasionally. For example, I often have a slice of chocolate cake during celebrations because it feels like a special treat. However, I try not to eat sweets too often to maintain a healthy diet.

Suggestion: Focus on giving a clear and direct answer. Avoid vague phrases like "I think" or "through my opinion". Try to provide specific examples or say you are not sure politely.

Example: I am not very familiar with traditional Chinese cakes, but I believe there are many types, such as mooncakes, which are popular during festivals.

Suggestion: Use correct verb forms and sentence structures. For example, say "I have never made a cake, but I try my best to learn from my mom." Also, use linking words to connect ideas clearly.

Example: Honestly, I have never made a cake, but I try my best to learn how to cook from my mom. For example, when it is my sister's birthday, my mom always bakes a cake for the celebration, so I ask her for the recipe and tips to make it delicious.

Suggestion: Improve grammar and clarity. For example, say "I definitely liked eating cakes as a child because it made me feel happy and relaxed." Also, use linking words like "so" correctly to connect ideas.

Example: Yes, as a child I definitely liked eating cakes because it made me feel happy and relaxed. For example, during break time, I usually bought a piece of cake to enjoy with my friends, which made the break more enjoyable and helped me stay connected with them.

Suggestion: Clarify your ideas and use correct vocabulary. For example, say "I like to have dessert after meals because it has become a family tradition." Avoid confusing phrases like "somebody said" and "meal 2".

Example: Yes, I definitely like to have dessert after meals because it has become a family tradition. We usually enjoy dessert together, which helps us feel more relaxed and less stressed.

× Yes, I enjoy eating cakes and others with food occasionally.

✓ Yes, I enjoy eating cakes and other sweet foods occasionally.

The phrase 'others with food' is incorrect. It should be 'other sweet foods' to correctly refer to additional types of sweet foods. 'Others' is a pronoun and does not fit here; 'other' is the correct adjective form.

× For example, I often have a slice of chocolate cake during celebration because it feel like a special treat.

✓ For example, I often have a slice of chocolate cake during celebrations because it feels like a special treat.

The subject 'it' refers to 'a slice of chocolate cake' which is singular, so the verb should be 'feels' (third person singular). Also, 'celebration' should be plural 'celebrations' to indicate general occasions.

× However, I try not to eat sweet too often to maintain a healthy diet.

✓ However, I try not to eat sweets too often to maintain a healthy diet.

'Sweet' is a non-count adjective here, but the noun 'sweets' (plural) is needed to refer to sweet foods. Using 'sweets' correctly quantifies the food items.

× Well, I don't know so much about the Chinese culture, but I think Chinese people would definitely have many type of cakes such as the other countries.

✓ Well, I don't know much about Chinese culture, but I think Chinese people definitely have many types of cakes like other countries.

'Many type' is incorrect; it should be 'many types' because 'types' is plural. Also, 'the other countries' should be 'other countries' without 'the'.

× So there are so through my opinion or what I have learned from the Chinese, it is like.

✓ So, in my opinion or based on what I have learned from the Chinese, it is like this.

The original sentence is unclear and ungrammatical. Adding 'in my opinion' and 'based on' clarifies the meaning. Ending with 'it is like this' completes the thought.

× Honestly I have never made a cake but I try all my best to learn it how to cook from my mom.

✓ Honestly, I have never made a cake but I try my best to learn how to cook from my mom.

The phrase 'try all my best' is incorrect; it should be 'try my best'. Also, 'learn it how to cook' is incorrect; 'learn how to cook' is correct.

× For example, when there is my sister birthday, my mom always back a cake for celebrating, so I try to ask her for the recipe how to make it and also the delicious.

✓ For example, when it is my sister's birthday, my mom always bakes a cake to celebrate, so I try to ask her for the recipe on how to make it and also how to make it delicious.

'There is my sister birthday' should be 'it is my sister's birthday' (possessive). 'Back' is incorrect; the past tense of 'bake' is 'bakes' here (present habitual). 'For celebrating' should be 'to celebrate'. The phrase 'the recipe how to make it and also the delicious' is unclear; it should be 'the recipe on how to make it and also how to make it delicious'.

× Yes, as a child I would definitely like eating cakes because it helped me to feel happy and relaxed all the time.

✓ Yes, as a child I definitely liked eating cakes because it helped me feel happy and relaxed all the time.

'Would definitely like eating' is awkward; 'definitely liked eating' is better for past habitual action. Also, 'helped me to feel' can be simplified to 'helped me feel'.

× For example, during break time I usually buy a piece of cake to enjoy with my friends.

✓ For example, during break time I usually buy a piece of cake to enjoy with my friends.

This sentence is correct and needs no correction.

× So that's make my break time activity more enjoyable and I can't stay connected with my friends.

✓ So that makes my break time activity more enjoyable and helps me stay connected with my friends.

'That's make' is incorrect; it should be 'that makes' (subject-verb agreement). Also, 'I can't stay connected' is incorrect in context; it should be 'helps me stay connected'.

× Yes, I would definitely like to have somebody said after meals because this activity, it's become my family tradition.

✓ Yes, I would definitely like to have some dessert after meals because this activity has become my family tradition.

'Somebody said' is incorrect; it should be 'some dessert'. Also, 'it's become' should be 'has become' for present perfect tense.

× We usually have dessert after meal 2.

✓ We usually have dessert after meals.

'Meal 2' is unclear and incorrect; 'meals' is the correct plural noun here.

× Also, I'm having dessert would bring us feel more relaxed and really stressed.

✓ Also, having dessert brings us to feel more relaxed and less stressed.

'I'm having dessert would bring us feel' is ungrammatical. The correct structure is 'having dessert brings us to feel'. Also, 'really stressed' contradicts the intended meaning; it should be 'less stressed'.
