Shopping— Part 1 採点レポート

提案: Your answer is natural and shows personal feelings, which is good. However, try to avoid redundancy and grammatical errors. For example, "people find it as a coping mechanism also like a therapy" can be simplified to "people see it as a coping mechanism or therapy." Also, "I shop and makes me feel rewarded" should be "shopping makes me feel rewarded." Keep your answer concise and clear within 5 sentences.

例: I like shopping because it helps me relax and feel happy. Many people see shopping as a way to relieve stress, and I am one of them. Whenever I feel stressed or joyful, I go shopping. It makes me feel rewarded and refreshed.

提案: Your answer is clear and relevant, but the sentence structure can be improved for better clarity. For example, "to first of all having a profit and not wasting your money" is unclear. Instead, say "to save money and get good value." Also, use linking words like "therefore" to connect ideas smoothly.

例: Yes, I always compare prices when I shop because it helps me save money and get good value. Therefore, I choose products that have good quality but are cheaper compared to others.

提案: Your answer is honest and relevant, but the sentences are fragmented and lack linking words. Try to combine ideas into complete sentences and use linking words like "for example" or "however" to improve coherence. Also, avoid short fragments like "Starting from small things."

例: Yes, I am a very indecisive person, even with small choices. For example, I often find it hard to choose between two similar products. However, I usually manage to make a decision eventually.

提案: Your answer shows opinion but has grammatical errors and unclear phrasing. Avoid phrases like "My answer might not be right" in IELTS speaking. Instead, state your opinion confidently. Also, correct grammar: "are have more have a better quality" should be "usually have better quality."

例: I believe expensive products usually have better quality than cheaper ones because companies invest more in materials and design.

× I shop and makes me feel rewarded.

✓ I shop and it makes me feel rewarded.

The subject 'I' requires the verb 'make' without 's', but here 'makes' is used incorrectly without a subject. Adding 'it' as the subject for 'makes' corrects the agreement.

× comparing prices while shopping is a very crucial step and to first of all having a profit and not wasting your money.

✓ comparing prices while shopping is a very crucial step to first of all have a profit and not waste your money.

The phrase 'to first of all having' is incorrect; after 'to' the base form of the verb should be used, so 'have' and 'waste' are correct instead of 'having' and 'wasting'.

× I buy the one which has the most quality but a lower price comparatively.

✓ I buy the one which has the best quality but a comparatively lower price.

'Most quality' is incorrect; 'best quality' is the correct superlative form. Also, 'comparatively' should modify 'lower price' properly, so the order is adjusted.

× So I feel like expensive products are have more have a better quality than cheaper ones.

✓ So I feel like expensive products have better quality than cheaper ones.

The phrase 'are have more have a better quality' is ungrammatical and redundant. The correct structure is 'have better quality' to express comparison properly.
