Travelling— Part 1 Báo cáo

Gợi ý: Make the answer a complete topic sentence and add one specific supporting detail using a linking word. Keep it concise (no more than 5 sentences). Avoid vague statements like "love natural views" without an example.

Ví dụ: Yes, I usually look out the window when travelling by bus or car because I enjoy seeing trees and fields along the route. For example, I like watching changing colours in the countryside, which helps me relax during long journeys.

Gợi ý: Start with a clear topic sentence and give one concrete reason or example. Use a linking word (e.g., "because" or "for example") to make the answer coherent and avoid repetition like "I think" twice.

Ví dụ: Yes, I often take photos of the scenery because they remind me of places I've visited. For example, I posted a photo of a sunrise over the hills on social media last month, and it made me happy to receive comments from friends.

Gợi ý: Respond directly with a clear preference (mountains or sea) in one sentence, then add one specific reason using a linking word. Avoid filler phrases, self-correction and meta-comments about the test. Keep it natural and concise.

Ví dụ: I prefer the mountains because I enjoy hiking and the peaceful atmosphere there. For instance, I feel refreshed by mountain air and scenery, which helps me disconnect from city noise.

× Yes, actually I think I've had good photos on social media, so I think I take some photos of the scenery.

✓ Yes, actually I think I've posted good photos on social media, so I take some photos of the scenery.

The original mixes tenses and uses 'have had' incorrectly for posting photos; 'have posted' or 'I've posted' is appropriate for an action affecting the present. Also 'I think I take some photos' is acceptable but sounds better as a habitual present: 'I take some photos.' Suggest using the present perfect 'I've posted' to show past action with present relevance and the simple present 'I take' for habitual action. Suggestion: Use 'I've posted' to indicate you have uploaded photos at unspecified times before now. Use simple present 'I take' to describe a habitual action.

× It can give me happiness.

✓ It makes me happy.

'It can give me happiness' is grammatically possible but wordy and slightly awkward here. 'Makes me happy' is a natural English expression to describe something that causes happiness. Use a simple active verb phrase for clarity.

× Sure, because I think the mountains ought to see a reverse.

✓ Sure, I prefer the mountains.

The original sentence is unclear and uses 'ought to see a reverse', which is not idiomatic English. The examiner asked a preference; a direct answer like 'I prefer the mountains' is clear and grammatically correct. If the student meant the mountains are worth seeing, an alternative is 'I think the mountains are worth seeing.' Suggestion: Keep answers concise and directly related to the question.

× I don't know. Do you listen? A sentence before is.

✓ I'm not sure. Sorry, could you repeat the question?

These fragments are incoherent and do not form correct sentences. 'Do you listen?' is unnatural in this context; 'Could you repeat the question?' or 'Sorry, I didn't catch that' are appropriate requests for clarification. Use complete sentences and polite phrasing when asking the examiner to repeat.

× I need to delete my personal sentence with a broad world view.

✓ I want to remove that personal remark; it doesn't answer your question.

The original is awkward and unclear. 'Delete' is more appropriate for editing text, but in spoken replies 'remove' or 'take back' is better. Clarify what is meant and keep it concise. Use 'it doesn't answer your question' to explain the reason.

× I think this sentence can better describe, uh, your question.

✓ I think this sentence better answers your question.

The phrase 'can better describe, uh, your question' is awkward. 'Better answers your question' is a natural way to indicate that the revised sentence fits the question more appropriately. Remove fillers like 'uh' for clarity.
