Shoes— Part 1 Relatório

Sugestão: Be more natural and concise. Start with a clear topic sentence, then add one or two specific supporting details using linking words. Correct grammar (e.g., “once a month”, avoid repetition).

Exemplo: Yes, I enjoy buying shoes. I usually buy a pair about once a month because I like trying different styles; for example, I often get casual sneakers for weekends and loafers for going out.

Sugestão: Give a complete, grammatically correct response and add a brief reason with linking words. Use correct verb forms and clear vocabulary.

Exemplo: No, I haven't bought shoes online. I prefer shopping in stores because I like to try shoes on to check the fit and comfort.

Sugestão: Answer directly and naturally. Remove filler phrases like “to be honest” unless needed, use correct subject-verb agreement, and give an approximate amount or explanation concisely.

Exemplo: I don't usually spend my own money on shoes because my parents buy them for me; if I did, I would probably spend around $40–$60 per pair.

Sugestão: Avoid repetition and combine ideas into one clear sentence using linking words. Fix grammar (subject-verb agreement) and give a brief reason or example.

Exemplo: I prefer comfortable shoes because I’m on my feet a lot, but I also like them to look stylish, so I usually choose breathable sneakers with a modern design.

× Yes, I like to buy shoes.

✓ Yes, I like buying shoes.

When expressing preferences with 'like', both infinitive and -ing can be used, but 'like buying' emphasizes the activity. This fits natural spoken English and keeps consistency with following sentences that describe habitual actions.

× I usually buy shoes by once a month because I like to wear different shoes.

✓ I usually buy shoes once a month because I like to wear different pairs of shoes.

'Once a month' is the correct time expression (no 'by'). Also use 'pairs of shoes' to refer to individual items; 'shoes' alone can be plural but 'pairs of shoes' is clearer when counting occurrences.

× I like to collect new shoes.

✓ I like collecting new shoes.

Again, 'like' can take either the infinitive or -ing form. Using the -ing form is more natural to describe a hobby or ongoing habit.

× No I don't.

✓ No, I haven't.

The question asked 'Have you ever bought shoes online?' which requires the present perfect. The student answered with simple present negative 'I don't', which is incorrect. Use 'I haven't' or 'No, I haven't' to indicate lack of experience up to now.

× I don't like to bought shows online because I like to try my shoes on the store so.

✓ I haven't bought shoes online because I like to try them on in the store.

Multiple errors: 'bought' is past tense where present perfect 'bought' must be used with 'have' (I haven't bought). 'shows' is a typo for 'shoes'. 'Try my shoes on the store' should be 'try them on in the store'. Use 'them' to refer back to shoes and 'in the store' for correct preposition.

× To become to be honest, I don't spend money on shoes because my mom and my dad spends money on my shoes.

✓ To be honest, I don't spend money on shoes because my mom and dad spend money on them.

'To become to be honest' is incorrect; use 'To be honest'. Subject-verb agreement: 'my mom and dad' is plural so the verb should be 'spend', not 'spends'. Also use 'them' to avoid repeating 'shoes'.

× I prefer comfortable shoes, but my shoes has to be fashionable too.

✓ I prefer comfortable shoes, but my shoes have to be fashionable too.

'Shoes' is plural, so the verb must be 'have' not 'has'. Ensure subject-verb agreement for third person plural subjects.
