Shoes— Part 1 Relatório

Sugestão: Your answer is generally clear and relevant, but it could be more concise and natural. Avoid redundancy such as "I would definitely buy them, even if I don't really need shoes at the moment" which repeats the idea. Also, try to use linking words to connect ideas smoothly. For example, you could say "I don't buy shoes regularly because a good pair lasts long; however, if I find an especially attractive pair, I might buy them even if I don't need them."

Exemplo: I don't buy shoes very often because a good pair usually lasts a long time. However, if I find a pair that really catches my eye, I might buy them even if I don't need new shoes at the moment. For instance, I once bought sneakers simply because I loved their design.

Sugestão: Your answer is relevant but incomplete and slightly awkward. The last sentence is unfinished, which affects coherence. Also, avoid vague phrases like "Nowadays, the Internet is everywhere" which are unnecessary. Use linking words to connect ideas logically and provide a complete example. For instance, you could say "I often use popular online stores like XYZ to find shoes."

Exemplo: Yes, I have bought shoes online several times. Online stores offer a wide variety of styles, and I find it convenient because I can compare prices and designs without visiting shops. For example, I often use websites like Amazon or Zappos to find good deals.

Sugestão: Your answer provides relevant information but has some grammatical errors and awkward phrasing. For example, "the price have been going up" should be "prices have been going up." Also, the last part is unclear: "that increase it mainly because of higher material and production costs." Try to clarify and link ideas smoothly. For example, "Prices have increased mainly due to higher material and production costs."

Exemplo: I usually spend about $100 on shoes, but recently prices have gone up. Now, I tend to spend around $150, which is quite expensive for me. This increase is mainly because of higher material and production costs.

Sugestão: Your answer is clear and well-structured, showing a good balance between comfort and style. However, the last sentence "Depends on the situation" is a fragment and could be integrated better. Also, try to use linking words like "therefore" or "so" to improve coherence.

Exemplo: I prefer comfortable shoes because I spend a lot of time walking or studying during the day. However, for formal occasions, I usually choose smart shoes that complement my outfit and help me look more polished and professional. Therefore, I try to balance comfort with style depending on the situation.

× I don't usually buy shoes on regular schedule because a good pair can last a long time.

✓ I don't usually buy shoes on a regular schedule because a good pair can last a long time.

The phrase 'on regular schedule' is missing the article 'a'. In English, singular countable nouns generally require an article. The correct phrase is 'on a regular schedule'.

× if I come across a pair that I found especially attractive to buy, I would definitely buy them

✓ if I come across a pair that I find especially attractive to buy, I would definitely buy them

The verb 'found' is in the past tense, but the sentence is conditional and refers to a present or future situation. The correct verb form is the present tense 'find' to match the conditional 'if I come across'.

× I would definitely buy them, even if I don't really need shoes at the moment.

✓ I would definitely buy them, even if I don't really need a pair of shoes at the moment.

The phrase 'need shoes' is grammatically correct, but to be more precise and natural, 'a pair of shoes' is preferred when referring to footwear. This clarifies the quantity and is more idiomatic.

× Nowadays, the Internet is everywhere and there were many online stores offering a wide variety of shoes.

✓ Nowadays, the Internet is everywhere and there are many online stores offering a wide variety of shoes.

The sentence uses 'were' which is past tense, but 'nowadays' indicates present time. The verb should be in present tense 'are' to match the time frame.

× I found it very convenient because I can easily compare price and style without having to visit physical shops, which leaves me a lot of time.

✓ I found it very convenient because I can easily compare prices and styles without having to visit physical shops, which leaves me a lot of time.

The nouns 'price' and 'style' should be plural 'prices' and 'styles' because the comparison involves multiple items or options.

× For example, I often use.

✓ For example, I often use online stores.

The sentence is incomplete and lacks an object after 'use'. To be grammatically correct and clear, the object of 'use' should be specified.

× but recently the price have been going up.

✓ but recently the price has been going up.

The subject 'price' is singular, so the verb should be singular 'has' instead of plural 'have' to agree in number.

× especially when I want to buy a nice pair of shoes that increase it mainly because of higher material and production costs.

✓ especially when I want to buy a nice pair of shoes that increases in price mainly because of higher material and production costs.

The relative clause 'that increase it' is unclear and ungrammatical. 'Pair' is singular, so the verb should be 'increases'. Also, 'increase it' is vague; 'increases in price' clarifies the meaning.

× Depends on the situation.

✓ It depends on the situation.

The sentence lacks a subject. In English, sentences generally require a subject and verb. Adding 'It' completes the sentence.
