Food— Part 1 채점 보고서

제안: Make the response more concise and grammatically correct, use a clear topic sentence, include one specific detail and a linking word. Avoid redundancy (e.g., 'basically', 'homemade' twice).

예시: My favourite food is dal bhat tarkari, a traditional Nepali dish of rice, lentils and vegetable curry. I enjoy it because I grew up eating it every day, and its simple flavours remind me of home, especially family meals in my village.

제안: Start with a clear topic sentence, then give one specific example with concise details and a linking phrase to explain why you liked it. Correct minor word choices (e.g., 'coriander' not 'corianders').

예시: When I was young I preferred spicy street foods. For example, I often ate chaat, a snack of puffed rice mixed with onions, tomatoes and coriander; it reminded me of playing with friends after school.

제안: Be more precise and fluent: use one clear topic sentence, then link to a specific example with time and reason. Correct grammar ('a country', 'times of the year'). Avoid repeating 'home' and 'homemade'.

예시: Yes, I eat different foods depending on the season and festivals. For instance, in October during the festival of Pashe we make fresh chapatis and host relatives, so we enjoy special family meals together.

제안: Fix grammar and use one coherent structure: state the change, give a specific reason and one concrete example with a linking word. Avoid vague phrases like 'savory stuffs' and 'sweet stuff'.

예시: Yes, my tastes have changed: I ate mainly savoury snacks as a child, but now I prefer sweet desserts. For example, I often buy pancakes or waffles from a local bakery because they relax me on my days off.

× My favorite food is Dal batter Curry which is basically a Nepali homemade meal which contains of rice, lentils and vegetables.

✓ My favorite food is Dal Bhat Curry, which is basically a Nepali homemade meal that contains rice, lentils, and vegetables.

Use of preposition 'of' after 'contains' is incorrect; 'contains' takes a direct object (no 'of'). Also add a comma before 'which' for clarity and change 'which contains of' to 'that contains'. Capitalize the dish name consistently and add commas in a list. Suggestion: Use 'contains' + noun phrase (e.g., 'contains rice, lentils, and vegetables').

× I love it because I have been having this meal ever since I was a kid and I am such a country girl so I love my Nepali cuisine.

✓ I love it because I have had this meal ever since I was a kid, and I am a country girl, so I love Nepali cuisine.

The phrase 'have been having' is awkward here; 'have had' (present perfect) is more natural to express an experience from childhood to now. 'Such a country girl' is informal and word order is improved as 'I am a country girl'. Remove redundant 'my' before 'Nepali cuisine'. Suggestion: Use present perfect 'have had' for experiences continuing from past to present and keep concise sentence structure.

× What kind of food did you like when you were young?

✓ What kind of food did you like when you were young?

This sentence is correct. It uses past tense 'did like' appropriately to ask about past preferences. Suggestion: No change needed.

× One of them would be chaat Pate, which is basically a puffed rice mixed with lots of spices like onions, tomatoes, corianders, salt and turmeric.

✓ One of them would be chaat paat, which is basically puffed rice mixed with lots of spices like onions, tomatoes, coriander, salt, and turmeric.

Use singular uncountable 'puffed rice' without 'a'. 'Coriander' is usually singular mass noun in this context. Capitalization/style of the dish name adjusted. Also add comma before 'and' in the list for clarity. Suggestion: Treat ingredients as uncountable nouns and keep consistent capitalization.

× I like it because it reminds me of home and my friends.

✓ I like it because it reminds me of home and of my friends.

While the original is understandable, parallel structure is improved by repeating the preposition 'of' ('reminds me of home and of my friends'). This emphasizes both objects equally. Suggestion: Use parallel prepositions when referring to multiple objects for clarity.

× Yes, I do eat different foods at different time of the year.

✓ Yes, I do eat different foods at different times of the year.

Use plural 'times' when referring to multiple occasions during the year. 'Different time of the year' is ungrammatical; 'different times of the year' is correct. Suggestion: Use plural form when talking about various occasions.

× I come from an country called Nepal where we have lots of different festivals.

✓ I come from a country called Nepal, where we have many different festivals.

Use 'a' not 'an' before 'country' because 'country' begins with a consonant sound. 'Lots of' is informal; 'many' is more appropriate in neutral speech. Add comma before 'where' for clarity. Suggestion: Choose 'a' vs 'an' based on initial sound; prefer 'many' in formal contexts.

× Especially during October we have a festival called Passe where we have homemade chapatis at home.

✓ Especially in October we have a festival called Passe, when we have homemade chapatis at home.

Use 'in October' to refer to a month. Use 'when' rather than 'where' because the clause refers to time rather than place. Comma improves readability. Suggestion: Use 'in' with months and 'when' to introduce time clauses.

× We invite lots of relatives and we eat together.

✓ We invite many relatives, and we eat together.

'Lots of' is informal; 'many' is a clearer quantifier. Add comma before 'and' to join independent clauses. Suggestion: Use appropriate quantifiers and punctuation for compound sentences.

× Yes, my favorite food has changed since I were a child.

✓ Yes, my favorite food has changed since I was a child.

Subject-verb agreement error in the subordinate clause: 'I were' is incorrect for a singular subject in standard English; use 'I was'. The main clause uses present perfect 'has changed' correctly. Suggestion: Use 'was' with 'I' in past simple contexts.

× As a child I loved savory stuffs but growing up I have become fond of sweet stuff like desserts.

✓ As a child I loved savory foods, but as I grew up I became fond of sweet things like desserts.

'Stuffs' is nonstandard; use 'foods' or 'things'. Mix of tenses: 'growing up I have become' is awkward; use 'as I grew up I became' to maintain past perspective. 'Sweet stuff' improved to 'sweet things' or 'sweets'. Suggestion: Use countable/uncountable nouns correctly and keep consistent tense.

× I love pancakes and waffles.

✓ I love pancakes and waffles.

This sentence is correct and appropriately uses the present simple to express a general preference. Suggestion: No change needed.

× It makes me at ease and on my days off I usually go to a bakery and have some.

✓ They put me at ease, and on my days off I usually go to a bakery and have some.

'It makes me at ease' is unclear because 'it' has no clear singular antecedent; 'pancakes and waffles' are plural, so use 'they'. Also, 'put at ease' is the common idiom. Add comma before coordinating conjunction. Suggestion: Ensure pronouns agree in number with their antecedents and use correct idioms ('put me at ease').
