Chatting— Part 1 Báo cáo

Gợi ý: Be more concise and correct grammar. Start with a clear topic sentence, then add one or two specific details using linking words. Correct vocabulary (Instagram) and fix grammar (talk to them, keep in regular contact). Avoid repetition like “deep deep.”

Ví dụ: Yes, I enjoy chatting with my friends. I usually talk to them on WhatsApp or Instagram, but I keep in regular contact only with my close friends because I prefer having deep, meaningful conversations.

Gợi ý: Organize the answer: give a topic sentence then two specific examples with linking words. Fix grammar (long-distance relationship → long-distance relationships or being far apart) and add punctuation for clarity. Use precise phrases (university plans, planning visits).

Ví dụ: We usually chat about what’s happening in our lives. For example, we discuss family news and everyday events, and we also talk about our emotional well-being and university plans, such as arranging future visits and supporting each other virtually.

Gợi ý: Make the reason clear and grammatically correct. Use linking words (because, so) and give a concrete example of why one-on-one is better. Remove repetition and unclear phrases ("avoid looking feeling").

Ví dụ: I prefer talking one-on-one with a friend because I feel more comfortable and can express my opinions more clearly. For instance, in one-to-one chats I can discuss personal issues without interruptions, whereas group conversations can be noisy and distracting.

Gợi ý: Start with a clear preference sentence, correct grammar (face to face → face-to-face; avoid double words), and explain why with a specific reason and an example. Use linking word (because or so).

Ví dụ: I prefer communicating via social media rather than face-to-face because I often feel awkward in person. For example, messaging lets me think before I reply and avoid awkward pauses during conversations.

Gợi ý: Provide a direct answer and then specific causes using linking words. Combine short fragments into full sentences and correct grammar (long-distance). Give an example of a typical misunderstanding and how you resolve it.

Ví dụ: Yes, I sometimes argue with friends, usually because of misunderstandings or the strain of being long-distance. For example, messages can be misread, so we try to clarify things quickly by calling or explaining our intentions.

× Yes, I do like chatting with my friends.

✓ Yes, I do like chatting with my friends.

No change needed: 'chatting' correctly uses the -ing form after 'like' to express a general preference.

× I usually talk them on social media through WhatsApp or insta.

✓ I usually talk to them on social media through WhatsApp or Instagram.

Use the preposition 'to' with the verb 'talk' when indicating the person you speak with. Also use the full proper noun 'Instagram' for formality. Suggestion: 'talk to someone' and use standard names.

× I give in regular contact with only close friends because I prefer having deep deep conversations with.

✓ I keep regular contact only with close friends because I prefer having deep conversations with them.

The original has incorrect verb choice 'give in regular contact' and wrong word order. Use 'keep regular contact' and place 'only' before the object it modifies. Also include the object 'them' after 'conversations with'. Remove duplicate 'deep'.

× We usually chat about things happening in our life like family, news and everyday events because we are in long distance relationship.

✓ We usually chat about things happening in our lives, like family, news, and everyday events, because we are in a long-distance relationship.

Use plural 'lives' for multiple people. Add articles and hyphenate 'long-distance' when used as an adjective. Include commas for clarity. Use 'a' before 'long-distance relationship'.

× We also talk a lot about how we are doing emotionally and about our university studies planning visit and supporting each other virtually.

✓ We also talk a lot about how we are doing emotionally, about our university studies and planning visits, and about supporting each other virtually.

The sentence lacks proper connectors and punctuation. Use parallel structure with repeated 'about' phrases and plural 'visits' after 'planning'. Commas and conjunctions clarify the list.

× I usually prefer talking one-on-one with a friend rather than in a group because I feel more comfortable and can express my opinion more clearly.

✓ I usually prefer talking one-on-one with a friend rather than in a group because I feel more comfortable and can express my opinion more clearly.

No change needed: articles and structure are correct for this sentence.

× In a group I I can't have a different conversations and and maybe I can avoid looking feeling.

✓ In a group I can't have different conversations, and maybe I feel I have to watch how I look and feel.

The original contains duplicated words ('I I', 'and and') and incorrect noun phrase 'a different conversations'. Remove duplicates, use plural 'conversations' without 'a', and clarify the intended meaning by specifying 'watch how I look and feel'.

× I prefer to communicate through social media rather than to face to face because I I get very awkward in person.

✓ I prefer to communicate through social media rather than face-to-face because I get very awkward in person.

Use 'face-to-face' with hyphens and without 'to' after 'rather than'. Remove duplicate 'I'. 'Get very awkward' is acceptable; ensure 'in person' remains.

× Yes, I do argue with friends.

✓ Yes, I do argue with friends.

No tense change required: present simple is appropriate for habitual actions.

× Sometimes it is because of misunderstanding or sometimes. Because of long distance.

✓ Sometimes it is because of misunderstandings, and sometimes because of the long distance.

Combine fragments into a single sentence. Use plural 'misunderstandings' for general situations and include the definite article 'the' before 'long distance' when referring to a specific situation. Avoid sentence fragments.
