Gifts— Part 1 채점 보고서

제안: Focus on clear grammar and a concise structure: give a direct topic sentence, then one or two specific supporting details. Use correct verb forms and avoid repetition. For example, say you are not good at choosing gifts, explain one reason (e.g., unsure of preferences), and mention a typical strategy (e.g., asking friends).

예시: To be honest, I'm not very good at choosing gifts. I often don't know what people prefer, so I usually ask my friends directly about their likes and then buy something based on their answer.

제안: Answer the timing question first (e.g., on birthdays, festivals), then give specific typical gifts. Use correct vocabulary and avoid stereotypes. Use linking words to connect ideas (for example, 'for example' or 'usually').

예시: I usually give gifts on birthdays and special occasions like holidays. For example, I often buy perfume, flowers, or small potted plants because my close friends appreciate those kinds of presents.

제안: Start with a clear topic sentence listing main factors, then explain each briefly with linking words (first, second, finally). Be specific about what you mean by 'meaningful' and correct sentence order and grammar.

예시: When choosing a gift, I consider three things: price, appearance, and whether it is meaningful. First, I make sure the gift is affordable; second, it should look nice; finally, it should reflect the recipient's interests so they will truly like it.

제안: Give a direct yes/no answer then expand with a clear reason and, if possible, a short related detail. Use past tense if referring to past actions and correct grammar for clarity.

예시: No, I have never given a handmade gift. I find making crafts quite complicated and time-consuming, so I usually buy ready-made presents instead.

제안: Give a clear opinion (yes/no/it depends) then justify it with specific reasons and contrast if appropriate. Avoid vague statements and repeat words. Use linking words like 'because' and 'however'.

예시: I think it depends. Expensive gifts can show you care because they often require more thought and money, but a thoughtful, inexpensive gift can express feelings just as well if it matches the person's tastes.

× To be honest, I don't think I'm good at to choose gifts.

✓ To be honest, I don't think I'm good at choosing gifts.

The fixed expression 'good at' must be followed by a verb in the -ing form (gerund). 'to choose' is the infinitive and is incorrect after 'good at'. Use 'choosing' instead.

× Usually I ask my friends want you want one do you like and I bought gifts for them for them so I think I don't.

✓ Usually I ask my friends what they want and what they like, and then I buy gifts for them, so I don't think I'm good at it.

The original sentence has incorrect word order and repeated fragments. Use indirect question structure 'ask my friends what they want' and coordinate actions with 'and then'. Use consistent tense (present) and a clear pronoun 'it' to refer to giving gifts.

× I usually prepare the perfume, the flower and some plants.

✓ I usually prepare perfume, flowers and some plants.

When listing general items, omit the definite article 'the'. Also use plural 'flowers' for a general category rather than 'the flower'.

× I think it's a girl like things so I usually Preheat them to my good friend.

✓ I think girls like those things, so I usually give them to my close friends.

'It's a girl like things' is ungrammatical; use 'girls like those things'. 'Preheat' is the wrong verb; use 'give'. Also ensure noun agreement and use plural 'friends' or 'friend' consistently; 'close friends' fits context.

× Usually on consider both gifts for my friend, I usually consider the price, look and the meaningful.

✓ When choosing gifts for my friends, I usually consider the price, appearance and meaning.

Original has misplaced words and incorrect structure. Use a clear clause 'When choosing gifts for my friends' and parallel noun forms 'price, appearance and meaning'. Avoid mixing articles incorrectly.

× I think the most significance is they like my friend like don't me like.

✓ I think the most important thing is whether my friend likes it, not whether I do.

Sentence has incorrect pronoun usage and word order. Use 'whether my friend likes it' for clarity and contrast with 'not whether I do'. Also replace 'significance' with 'important thing'.

× No I don't. I don't make handmade gift with my friend because I think is very complex and spend a lot of time so I usually bought gifts for them though.

✓ No, I don't. I don't make handmade gifts with my friends because I think it is very complicated and takes a lot of time, so I usually buy gifts for them.

Use present tense 'don't' consistently and plural 'gifts'. 'Is very complex' needs subject 'it' and 'complicated' is the appropriate adjective. Use 'takes' instead of 'spend' for time required by an activity. Use present tense 'buy' instead of past 'bought' to match habitual action.

× I think the expensive gifts can express my feeling because I expensive gifts like perfume, like flower, it's make me happy.

✓ I think expensive gifts can express my feelings because expensive gifts like perfume and flowers make me happy.

Ensure noun plurality 'flowers' and consistent subject-verb agreement 'gifts make'. Remove redundant 'the' before 'expensive gifts' when speaking generally. Use 'feelings' (plural) and correct verb form 'make' with plural subject.
