Food— Part 1 Informe

Sugerencia: Be direct, concise and coherent. Start with a clear topic sentence stating your favourite food, then give one or two specific examples and a brief reason. Avoid fillers (umm, uh), repetition and incomplete sentences. Use linking words for clarity (for example, and, also, because).

Ejemplo: My favourite foods are mainly Italian dishes and sweets. For example, I often enjoy pizza and pasta because they are comforting and full of flavour. I also like chocolate and other desserts, especially after a meal.

Sugerencia: Answer directly with a clear topic sentence, then add a specific supporting detail and a brief reason or example. Use past tense consistently when talking about the past and reduce hesitations. Use linking words like "when" or "because" to connect ideas.

Ejemplo: When I was young I mainly liked desserts and fast food. For example, I often ate ice cream and hamburgers because they were convenient and tasty. Over time my preferences have stayed similar.

Sugerencia: Give a clear topic sentence, then provide specific seasonal examples and reasons. Replace vague phrases with precise details (e.g., which vegetables or dishes). Use linking words (for example, however, because) to improve coherence and avoid hesitations.

Ejemplo: Yes, I eat different foods depending on the season. For example, in winter I tend to eat more soups and root vegetables like carrots and potatoes because they are warming. In summer I prefer fresh salads and fruits such as watermelon and tomatoes because they are light and refreshing.

Sugerencia: Answer directly and concisely with a topic sentence, then give one or two specific supporting reasons or examples. Avoid asking the examiner if they understand you. Use correct grammar (e.g., "I was a child" → "I was a child", "my taste is the same").

Ejemplo: No, my favourite foods have not changed since I was a child. I still enjoy similar things like pizza and sweets because I have always liked strong flavours and comfort foods.

× All my favorite foods are everything.

✓ All my favorite foods are everything. (No correction needed)

Although the sentence sounds odd logically, grammatically the pronoun use is acceptable. However, 'everything' is too broad; consider specifying types of food. No pronoun error per list.

× What is unhealthy? Like junk food, Umm chocolate and sweets.

✓ What is unhealthy? For example, junk food, chocolate, and sweets.

Original uses sentence fragments and fillers. Use 'for example' to introduce examples and join items with commas and 'and' to form a correct list.

× Uh. I also like pizza and Italian food and my.

✓ I also like pizza and other Italian food.

Original ends with an incomplete fragment 'and my.' Replace with 'other Italian food' to complete the idea and remove filler 'Uh.' Ensure sentence has a clear object.

× My taste did not change because when I was a child, I like, uh, desserts and I like fast food.

✓ My taste did not change because when I was a child, I liked desserts and I liked fast food.

Main clause is past tense ('did not change'), so actions in the past should use past tense verbs. Change 'like' to 'liked' for consistency.

× Also, I like very unhealthy food.

✓ Also, I liked very unhealthy food.

Because this sentence refers to when the student was a child (past timeframe), 'like' should be 'liked' to match past tense context.

× I eat different foods at different times of the year because for example, in winter there are not vegetables like, uh, delicious ones.

✓ I eat different foods at different times of the year because, for example, in winter there are not many delicious vegetables.

Replace 'there are not vegetables like, uh, delicious ones' with 'there are not many delicious vegetables' for correct word order and quantifier use. 'For example' should be set off by commas.

× And when it comes summer, I like it a lot.

✓ And when summer comes, I like them a lot.

Original 'when it comes summer' is incorrect order; use 'when summer comes.' 'I like it a lot' is vague—'them' refers to seasonal foods (plural). If referring to summer vegetables or foods, use plural pronoun 'them.' Alternatively, specify the noun.

× My favorite food has not changed since I was child because my taste is same and I like the food now what I liked when I was a child.

✓ My favorite food has not changed since I was a child because my taste is the same and I like the same food now that I liked when I was a child.

Missing article before 'child' — use 'a child.' 'My taste is same' needs definite article 'the same.' Also restructure 'I like the food now what I liked' to 'I like the same food now that I liked' to form a correct relative clause and maintain clarity.

× OK, do you understand me?

✓ Okay, do you understand me?

Only minor style change: expand 'OK' to 'Okay' for formality. Sentence is otherwise acceptable.
