Cakes— Part 1 Báo cáo

Gợi ý: Your answer is generally clear but could be more natural and coherent. Avoid short, fragmented sentences like "Cheese, sweets." Instead, combine ideas smoothly and explain your preferences more clearly. Also, try to avoid phrases like "That's that" which sound abrupt. Use linking words to connect your ideas logically.

Ví dụ: Generally speaking, I prefer savoury foods such as cheese over sweet treats because I haven't been very fond of sugary foods. However, I do occasionally enjoy a slice of cake, especially at my friend's birthday parties.

Gợi ý: Your answer provides relevant information but could be more fluent and precise. Avoid repeating words unnecessarily (e.g., "are round, are like the moon"). Use linking words to connect ideas and clarify the cultural significance more naturally. Also, try to use more specific vocabulary related to the festival.

Gợi ý: Your answer is honest but could be more concise and natural. Avoid phrases like "To some extent I can say" which sound awkward. Instead, use simple and clear sentences. Also, try to link your ideas smoothly to improve coherence.

Gợi ý: Your answer is clear and relevant but could be improved by using more natural expressions and linking words. For example, instead of "From what I recall," you could say "I don't remember eating cakes very often as a child." Also, try to expand a bit more on why those moments were fun.

Ví dụ: I don't remember eating cakes very often when I was a child. However, I did occasionally have slices of cake at my friend's birthday parties, which were always enjoyable and memorable occasions.

Gợi ý: Your answer has good ideas but needs to be clearer and more fluent. Avoid filler words like "uh" and "umm." Also, "yoga" seems out of context—perhaps you meant "yogurt." Use linking words to connect your ideas and check for accuracy in vocabulary. Try to explain why desserts are refreshing after spicy meals more clearly.

Ví dụ: It depends on the type of food I eat. For instance, after having very spicy dishes like Sichuan or Hunan cuisine, I enjoy desserts such as ice cream, yogurt, or milk tea because they help to cool down the spiciness and refresh my palate.
