Do you like shopping?
Candidato
I don't really enjoy shopping because I find it quite exhausting when I stop shop. I often have to walk through many stores in a large shopping mall, which can be tiring. Also, it takes a lot of time for me to find out what I want, so I usually prefer to shop online instead.
Examinador
Do you compare prices when you shop? Why?
Candidato
Of course, I always compare prices when I go shopping because different shops often have varying prices due to factors like rent, cost and the number of customers they attract. For example, some stores may offer discounts to attract more buyers. So by comparing prices, I can save some money and get the best deal.

Do you think expensive products are always better than cheaper ones?
Candidato
Not not necessary, because expensive products are not always better than cheaper ones. Sometimes cheaper products can be a good quality, especially when shops offer discounts or promotions. For example, a store might reduce the price of products to your cheque customer, making it more affordable without composing costs.

× I don't really enjoy shopping because I find it quite exhausting when I stop shop.
✓ I don't really enjoy shopping because I find it quite exhausting when I stop shopping.
The verb 'stop' should be followed by the gerund form 'shopping' to indicate the action of ceasing to do something. Using the base form 'shop' after 'stop' is incorrect in this context.
× I can see variety of different type of things I want to buy like food.
✓ I can see a variety of different types of things I want to buy like food.
The word 'variety' is a singular noun and should be preceded by the article 'a'. Also, 'type' should be plural 'types' to agree with 'different'. This corrects the singular/plural agreement and article usage.
× I like chocolate so I would prefer buying some milk chocolate or some other dark chocolate and these two type of chocolate have many different kinds.
✓ I like chocolate so I would prefer buying some milk chocolate or some other dark chocolate and these two types of chocolate have many different kinds.
The phrase 'two type' is incorrect because 'type' should be plural 'types' when referring to more than one. This corrects the singular/plural agreement.
× Not not necessary, because expensive products are not always better than cheaper ones.
✓ Not necessarily, because expensive products are not always better than cheaper ones.
The phrase 'Not not necessary' is incorrect. The correct adverb form 'necessarily' should be used to modify the negation 'Not'. This corrects the misuse of words and pronouns.
× For example, a store might reduce the price of products to your cheque customer, making it more affordable without composing costs.
✓ For example, a store might reduce the price of products for loyal customers, making it more affordable without compromising costs.
The phrase 'to your cheque customer' is incorrect and unclear. It seems the intended meaning is 'loyal customers'. Also, 'composing costs' is incorrect; the correct phrase is 'compromising costs'. This corrects the misuse of pronouns and vocabulary.
