Shopping— Part 1 Report

Suggestion: Your answer is enthusiastic and personal, which is good. However, it is somewhat repetitive and slightly unclear towards the end. Try to avoid repeating phrases and ensure your sentences are complete and clear. Also, keep your answer concise and directly related to the question.

Example: Yes, I really enjoy shopping because it helps me relax after a busy day. I see it as a way to treat myself with the money I earn, which makes me feel rewarded and happy.

Suggestion: Your answer is relevant and shows awareness of the economic context, which is good. To improve, try to use linking words to connect your ideas smoothly and avoid short, choppy sentences. Also, use more natural phrasing and avoid formal expressions like 'output of money'.

Example: Yes, I always compare prices because, especially nowadays, it's important to manage my budget carefully. Since I've read about a possible recession, I try to be cautious about how much money I spend and keep track of my bank balance.

Suggestion: Your answer addresses the question but is incomplete and has some grammatical errors. Avoid unfinished sentences and try to express your ideas clearly. Also, use linking words to connect your points and provide specific examples to support your answer.

Example: Yes, I find it hard to make choices because I often buy things on impulse and then regret them later. For example, I might buy clothes that I don't really need and feel the urge to return them afterwards.

Suggestion: Your answer shows a good opinion but is incomplete and has some awkward phrasing. Try to finish your thoughts fully and use clearer, more natural expressions. Also, use linking words to connect your ideas and provide specific reasons or examples.

Example: I don't think expensive products are always better than cheaper ones. However, expensive items often have more labour and detail involved, especially if they are handmade, which makes them more valuable to me.

× It definitely is being spent on myself care we.

✓ It definitely is being spent on self-care.

The phrase 'myself care we' is incorrect. The reflexive pronoun 'myself' should be used correctly as 'self-care' to indicate care directed towards oneself. Also, 'we' is unnecessary and incorrect here. The correct term is 'self-care', which is a noun referring to taking care of oneself.

× With actively reading news articles about a recession coming, I do.

✓ By actively reading news articles about a recession coming, I do.

The preposition 'with' is incorrectly used here. The correct preposition to indicate the means or method is 'by'. Therefore, 'By actively reading news articles about a recession coming, I do' is correct.

× I do regret a lot of the things I buy an I feel like I have the need to return.

✓ I do regret a lot of the things I buy and I feel like I have the need to return them.

The conjunction 'an' is a typo and should be 'and'. Also, the sentence lacks an object for 'return'. Adding 'them' clarifies that the items bought are what the speaker feels the need to return.

× I don't agree with them being always better than the cheaper ones, but more often than not they are just because of the amount of Labor that is spent into making a product.

✓ I don't agree with expensive products always being better than the cheaper ones, but more often than not they are, just because of the amount of labour that is spent in making a product.

The pronoun 'them' is vague; specifying 'expensive products' clarifies the subject. Also, 'spent into' is incorrect; the correct preposition is 'in'. Additionally, 'Labour' should be lowercase unless it is a proper noun.

× So I definitely value the expensive products a lot more also because of the supply being.

✓ So I definitely value the expensive products a lot more also because of their supply.

The phrase 'because of the supply being' is incomplete and incorrect. Adding 'their' clarifies possession, and removing 'being' completes the sentence properly.
