Gifts— Part 1 채점 보고서

제안: Try to make your answer more natural and concise by avoiding filler words like 'uh' and redundant phrases.

예시: First, I consider how close I am to the person. If we are very close, I choose a more special gift. However, if we are not so close, I usually give books because they are thoughtful and suitable for many people.

✓ I think of myself as a person who gives a lot of good gifts because I usually buy gifts for the people in my life.

The phrase 'I think myself as' is incorrect; the correct expression is 'I think of myself as'. Also, 'the clothes persons' is incorrect; it should be 'the people'. This correction improves clarity and grammatical accuracy.

× And I always consider the personality and the characteristic of the person I'm buying a gift and that flatters them.

✓ And I always consider the personality and the characteristics of the person I'm buying a gift for, and I choose something that flatters them.

The word 'characteristic' should be plural 'characteristics' to match 'personality'. Also, the sentence was incomplete and unclear; adding 'for' after 'gift' and clarifying the action improves grammatical correctness and clarity.

× I bought, uh, a nice star view, uh, picture for my friend as his presence for the his birthday.

✓ I bought a nice star view picture for my friend as his present for his birthday.

× And it's usually harder when someone is not so close for someone who's not so around.

× But I think those are very expensive for the gift and I usually cannot afford them, but they are very good.

✓ But I think those gifts are very expensive, and I usually cannot afford them, although they are very good.

The phrase 'expensive for the gift' is incorrect; it should be 'expensive' or 'expensive gifts'. Also, connecting the clauses properly improves sentence coherence.

× Uh, I believe that, uh, the expenditure on the gift is not as important as the personal touch it contains. Uh, for example, if I give someone a handmade gift, which, uh, conclude which includes him or her feelings is much valuable than just.

✓ Uh, I believe that the expenditure on the gift is not as important as the personal touch it contains. For example, if I give someone a handmade gift, which includes his or her feelings, it is much more valuable than just an expensive gift.
