Gifts— Part 1 Report

Suggestion: Try to make your answer more fluent and clear by avoiding filler words like 'umm' and 'plus'. Also, structure your answer with a clear topic sentence and supporting details. For example, explain how you find out what your friends need and why you enjoy giving gifts.

Example: Yes, I believe I am good at giving gifts because I pay close attention to my friends' hints and preferences. For instance, I often listen carefully when they talk about things they like or need, which helps me choose meaningful presents.

Suggestion: Avoid excessive hesitation and filler words to improve fluency. Provide a clear and complete answer with linking words to connect ideas. For example, mention the occasion and explain why you choose to give gifts then.

Example: I usually give gifts to others on their birthdays because it is an important occasion. Additionally, I like to include a thoughtful letter to express my appreciation and make the gift more special.

Suggestion: Try to avoid filler words and complete your sentences fully. Use linking words like 'because' and 'besides' effectively. Also, be specific about what qualities you look for in a gift.

Example: When choosing a gift, I consider the price because I am a student and have a limited budget. Besides, I pay attention to the quality to ensure the gift is durable and meaningful, rather than cheap or low-quality.

Suggestion: Avoid hesitation and incomplete sentences. Provide a clear topic sentence and explain why the handmade gift was meaningful. Use linking words to connect your ideas.

Example: Yes, I have given a handmade gift before. For example, I made a bracelet for my best friend last year, which I think was very meaningful because it showed my effort and care.

Suggestion: Reduce filler words and improve sentence structure for clarity. Clearly state your opinion and support it with reasons. Use linking words to organise your answer logically.

Example: I don't think expensive gifts better express feelings. In my opinion, close friends value the emotions and thought behind a gift more than its price, so a simple but heartfelt present is often more meaningful.

× Yes, definitely, because I know how to ask my friends UMM unconsciously tell me what they really need and plus I like to send the gifts by UMM observing their leads.

✓ Yes, definitely, because I know how to ask my friends and unconsciously get them telling me what they really need, and plus I like to send gifts by observing their leads.

The original sentence incorrectly uses 'tell' after 'unconsciously' without a proper verb form. The verb 'tell' should be in the '-ing' form 'telling' to follow the verb 'get' implied in the correction. Also, 'send the gifts by UMM observing their leads' is awkward; it is corrected to 'send gifts by observing their leads' for clarity and grammatical correctness.

× Uh Musa Thai umm on their birthday because it's uh, important.

✓ Uh, mostly on their birthday because it's, uh, important.

The phrase 'Musa Thai' is unclear and likely a mishearing or mispronunciation. It is corrected to 'mostly' to fit the context. Also, the preposition 'on' is correctly used with 'birthday' so no change there. The correction focuses on replacing unclear words for clarity.

× Uh, OK, I'll definitely send umm the, the, the beautiful gift to them and write the umm letter to express my appreciation to.

✓ Uh, OK, I'll definitely send a beautiful gift to them and write a letter to express my appreciation.

The original sentence has redundant articles 'the, the, the' and ends abruptly with 'to' without an object. The correction removes redundancy and completes the sentence properly by removing the unnecessary 'to' at the end.

× Umm, basically I will consider their price because you know, I'm actually a student so I don't have enough money to cover expensive one.

✓ Umm, basically I will consider the price because, you know, I'm actually a student so I don't have enough money to cover an expensive one.

The word 'their' is incorrectly used to refer to 'price' which is singular; it should be 'the price'. Also, 'expensive one' needs an article 'an' before it because 'one' is singular and countable.

× Besides, I will take their uh, qual quality into consideration because I don't want to send a chip or.

✓ Besides, I will take their quality into consideration because I don't want to send a cheap one.

The word 'qual' is a mispronunciation or typo and corrected to 'quality'. Also, 'chip' is incorrect; the intended word is 'cheap' as an adjective describing the gift. The sentence is completed with 'one' to refer to the gift.

× MMM, let me see. I sent a bracelet that I have made by myself once a year, one year, a year again, it's my to my best friend.

✓ MMM, let me see. I sent a bracelet that I made by myself about a year ago to my best friend.

The phrase 'have made' is corrected to simple past 'made' to match the past action. The time expressions 'once a year, one year, a year again' are confusing and replaced with 'about a year ago' for clarity. Also, 'it's my to my best friend' is corrected to 'to my best friend' removing unnecessary words.

× I think it's meaningful and.

✓ I think it's meaningful.

The sentence ends abruptly with 'and' without continuation. The correction removes 'and' to complete the sentence properly.

× Umm, not really. I think a best, a best friend don't care about your umm, how much your gifts cost, the most priorities to about your, uh, feelings and emotion.

✓ Umm, not really. I think a best friend doesn't care about how much your gifts cost; the most important thing is your feelings and emotions.

The phrase 'a best, a best friend' is redundant and corrected to 'a best friend'. The verb 'don't' is corrected to 'doesn't' to agree with singular subject 'a best friend'. 'The most priorities to about your' is incorrect and replaced with 'the most important thing is your' for clarity and correctness. 'Emotion' is pluralised to 'emotions' to match context.

× I guess you need to purchase.

✓ I guess you don't need to purchase expensive gifts to express your feelings.

The original sentence is incomplete and unclear. The correction completes the thought logically based on context, making it a full sentence that conveys the intended meaning.
