Memory— Part 1 Báo cáo

Gợi ý: Make the answer more natural and coherent: start with a clear topic sentence, correct grammar, avoid redundancy, and add a brief reason or example. Keep it within 3–4 sentences and use linking words (e.g., ‘but’, ‘however’, ‘because’).

Ví dụ: I’m not very good at memorizing most things, but I tend to remember highly emotional events. For example, if someone says something hurtful to me, I usually recall it for a long time because emotional memories stick more easily. However, for everyday facts I often need reminders.

Gợi ý: Make the story clearer and grammatically correct: give a concise topic sentence, then provide specific details (when, why, result). Avoid trailing or incomplete sentences. Use linking words like ‘because’, ‘so’, and ‘therefore’.

Ví dụ: Yes. Last year I forgot one of my best friend’s birthdays because my school schedule was very busy. I realized my mistake a few days later and sent her an apology message, and fortunately she forgave me. Since then I set reminders for important dates.

Gợi ý: Use clear, correct vocabulary and specific examples: state one or two main things you must remember, explain briefly how they vary, and show how you cope. Avoid unclear phrases (e.g., ‘fixed drawer’).

Ví dụ: I need to remember routine things like my locker combination and changing deadlines for assignments set by teachers. Deadlines vary a lot, so I put each due date into my phone calendar and set alarms to remind me a few days beforehand. This helps me avoid missing submissions.

Gợi ý: Make sentences grammatically correct and slightly expand with a linking phrase and a brief reason. Mention specific tools or timing to show strategy and be concise (2–3 sentences).

Ví dụ: I set reminders and alarms on my phone to make sure I don’t miss assignments or meetings. I also ask a close friend to remind me a day before important deadlines, because an extra prompt reduces the chance of forgetting.

× To be honest, I'm not very good at memorizing things in general. However, if something is very upsetting or if someone I strongly dislike that something hurtful, I tend to remember it for a long time.

✓ To be honest, I'm not very good at memorizing things in general. However, if something is very upsetting or if someone I strongly dislike says something hurtful, I tend to remember it for a long time.

The original sentence incorrectly mixes clauses and omits the verb 'says' or another reporting verb, causing a tense and structure problem. Use present simple 'says' to report habitual or general actions; keep 'tend to remember' in present tense. Suggestion: include the verb (says) to complete the clause and maintain present tense consistency.

× Yes, for example, I have forgotten one of my best friend's birthday last year in the because of the busy schedule in my school and I sent a message to apologize a few days later and she forgave me but it was.

✓ Yes, for example, I forgot one of my best friend's birthdays last year because of my busy school schedule. I sent a message to apologize a few days later, and she forgave me.

The sentence wrongly uses present perfect 'have forgotten' with a specific past time expression 'last year'; use simple past 'forgot'. There is also an article and word order problem ('in the because') and plural for 'birthday' when referring to one of multiple birthdays: use 'one of my best friend's birthdays'. Split into two clear sentences and remove extra fragment. Suggestion: use simple past with specific past time and simplify sentence structure.

× I have remember the fixed drawer in our school and varying deadlines set by our teachers.

✓ I have to remember the fixed drawer in our school and the varying deadlines set by our teachers.

The verb phrase 'have remember' is incorrect. Use modal 'have to' + base verb 'remember' to express obligation, or use present simple 'I remember' for habitual actions. Also add definite article 'the' before 'varying deadlines' for clarity. Suggestion: use 'have to remember' to show necessity.

× I sometimes need to set some remembers in my phone to avoid missing the assignments or the meeting.

✓ I sometimes need to set some reminders on my phone to avoid missing assignments or meetings.

The noun 'remembers' is incorrect; the correct noun is 'reminders'. Preposition 'on' is used with devices ('on my phone'), and plural nouns should be general without 'the' unless specific. Suggestion: use 'reminders' and 'on my phone' and remove unnecessary definite articles.

× I always set reminders on my phone so I didn't miss assignments or meetings.

✓ I always set reminders on my phone so I don't miss assignments or meetings.

The original mixes present habit 'always set' with past simple 'didn't miss'. Use present simple negative 'don't miss' to match habitual action. Suggestion: keep present tense for both clauses when describing habits.

× I also tell my friends to remind me at the before the deadline in order to not missing the important thing.

✓ I also tell my friends to remind me before the deadline in order not to miss important things.

The phrase 'at the before the deadline' has extra prepositions and articles; use 'before the deadline'. 'In order to not missing' is ungrammatical: use 'in order not to miss' or simply 'so I don't miss'. 'The important thing' is awkward and should be plural or 'important things'. Suggestion: simplify to 'before the deadline' and use infinitive 'to miss' with 'not' before it.
