Holidays— Part 1 Báo cáo

Gợi ý: Be more concise, correct grammar (singular/plural and prepositions), and add a clear topic sentence followed by one or two specific details. Use linking words to connect ideas.

Ví dụ: I went to Niagara Falls with my husband to celebrate our third anniversary. We enjoyed the views, took a SkyWheel ride, and had a nice dinner by the falls.

Gợi ý: Avoid hesitation and repetition. Start with a clear topic sentence, give one or two reasons, and include a specific example. Use correct verb forms and collocations (feel relaxed, get away from work).

Ví dụ: Yes, I love holidays because they help me feel relaxed and get away from work stress. For example, I usually spend holidays at the beach where I can sunbathe and read a book.

Gợi ý: Answer directly and avoid asking the examiner a question. Use correct grammar (I like shopping; I get good prices on clothes). Give one concrete detail about what you buy or why you enjoy it.

Ví dụ: My favourite public shopping event is Black Friday because I can buy clothes at much lower prices. I usually look for winter coats and shoes during the sales.

Gợi ý: Organise your answer with a clear topic sentence and two contrasting details. Remove filler words and finish sentences clearly. Use proper collocations (sunbathe, stay at home).

Ví dụ: It depends on the weather. If it's hot, I usually go to the beach to sunbathe and swim; if it's cold, I stay at home, make tea and popcorn, and watch a movie.

Gợi ý: Be more concise and avoid repetition. Use a clear topic sentence then give one or two supporting details with correct adjectives and verbs (find a good movie, make tea).

Ví dụ: Yes, I enjoy spending time at home. My husband and I often pick a good movie, make tea and popcorn, and relax together.

Gợi ý: Use a clear direct statement and avoid hesitations. Give two specific leisure activities and link them coherently. Correct grammar (I prefer a leisurely holiday; a holiday means...).

Ví dụ: I definitely prefer leisurely holidays because I want to relax. For example, I like going to the beach, visiting parks, and spending time with friends in a calm setting.

Gợi ý: Avoid contradiction (saying exciting but then emphasising calm). Choose one preference and explain with clear reasons and examples. Correct plural/singular and use linking words.

Ví dụ: I prefer an exciting holiday because I enjoy social activities. For example, I like going to parties and nightclubs with friends because dancing and socialising helps me unwind and feel refreshed.

× On my last holiday I went to Niagara Fall with my husband so we went there to spend to celebrate our 3rd anniversary and we enjoyed there very much and we also got a ride on the Skywheel.

✓ On my last holiday I went to Niagara Falls with my husband to celebrate our third anniversary; we enjoyed it very much and also took a ride on the SkyWheel.

'Niagara Falls' is the correct plural place name (singular/plural issue). 'Spend to celebrate' is ungrammatical; use 'to celebrate'. 'Enjoyed there very much' is incorrect word order and pronoun; use 'enjoyed it very much'. 'Got a ride' is informal and passive; 'took a ride' is more natural. Also use 'third' instead of '3rd' in formal speech.

× Yes, I love holidays because it I can feel relax and calm, uh, and stay away from the work stress.

✓ Yes, I love holidays because I can feel relaxed and calm and stay away from work stress.

The sentence uses an unnecessary 'it' and incorrect form 'relax' instead of the adjective 'relaxed' (present tense / adjective use). Remove the extra 'it' and use 'relaxed' to describe how you feel; also omit 'the' before 'work stress' for general reference.

× I always love to, uh, spend my holiday and enjoy my holiday on a beach or uh, on a beach.

✓ I always love to spend my holiday and enjoy it on a beach.

Repetition and awkward phrasing; use a single pronoun 'it' to refer to 'holiday' and avoid repeating 'on a beach'. Using 'to spend' is acceptable followed by the noun; no -ing form problem here beyond redundancy.

× I like Black Friday because I love to shopping and I always go for shopping when I will get uh, uh, good, uh, prices on, on the clothes and get better off.

✓ I like Black Friday because I love shopping and I always go shopping when there are good prices on clothes so I can get a good deal.

Use the gerund 'shopping' after 'love' rather than 'to shopping' (verb + -ing). 'Go for shopping' is incorrect; say 'go shopping'. 'When I will get' is wrong for general statements; use present 'there are' or 'I can get'. 'Get better off' is unclear—use 'get a good deal'.

× So you always like Black Friday?

✓ So you always like Black Friday?

This question is grammatically acceptable; no change needed. It matches subject-verb agreement and question form. (Included for completeness.)

× Umm, it depends on the weather. If it's, uh, hot outside, I would like to uh, I always like to go on beach and have sun bath and enjoy the calm sea.

✓ Umm, it depends on the weather. If it's hot outside, I always like to go to the beach, sunbathe, and enjoy the calm sea.

Use 'go to the beach' rather than 'go on beach' (preposition error). 'Have sun bath' is incorrect; use the verb 'sunbathe' or 'have a sunbath'. 'I would like to' mixed with 'I always like to' is redundant; choose 'I always like to' for habitual actions (present tense).

× But if it is winter outside, I like to sit at my home, uh, have have some popcorn or a cup of tea and watch a movie.

✓ But if it is winter outside, I like to stay at home, have some popcorn or a cup of tea, and watch a movie.

Use 'stay at home' or 'stay home' rather than 'sit at my home' (preposition and verb choice). Remove the duplicated 'have'. Keep parallel structure in the list of activities.

× And because it.

✓ And because of that, I feel more relaxed.

The fragment 'And because it.' is incomplete (sentence structure error). Provide a full clause that explains the consequence, e.g., 'And because of that, I feel more relaxed.'

× Yes, uh, I love to spend time at home. Uh, I like to sit with my husband and find a goo good movie to watch.

✓ Yes, I love to spend time at home. I like to sit with my husband and find a good movie to watch.

Typographical repetition 'goo good' corrected to 'good'. Pronouns are fine; this fixes the typo and removes filler 'uh'.

× Then I make a cup of tea with popcorn. We sit together and enjoy the movie very much and because I feel relaxed and calm.

✓ Then I make a cup of tea and prepare some popcorn. We sit together and enjoy the movie very much because it helps me feel relaxed and calm.

Use 'and' to connect activities; 'with popcorn' is awkward—'prepare some popcorn' is clearer. The clause 'and because I feel relaxed and calm' is a fragment; combine into a complete sentence explaining cause and effect.

× I would definitely, uh, prefer leisurely holiday because for me, holiday meaning to relax to come go to the beach, go to the park and play in the playground with, with friends.

✓ I would definitely prefer a leisurely holiday because, for me, a holiday means relaxing: going to the beach, going to the park, and playing in the playground with friends.

Use 'a leisurely holiday' (article error) and 'a holiday means' (present-tense definition). Convert verb forms to gerunds for parallelism ('relaxing', 'going'). Fix repetition and word order.

× So definitely uh would like uh, the enjoyable holiday.

✓ So I would definitely like an enjoyable holiday.

Use the indefinite article 'an' before a vowel sound adjective 'enjoyable' (article error). Include the subject 'I' for clarity and normal word order.

× I would prefer an exciting holidays, I would like to go to the party and spend time with my friends, enjoy the night club uh because it helps me to feel relaxed and calm and refresh my mind.

✓ I would prefer an exciting holiday. I would like to go to parties and spend time with my friends, enjoy nightclubs because they help me feel relaxed, calm, and refreshed.

'An exciting holidays' mixes singular article with plural noun (singular/plural issue)—use 'an exciting holiday' or 'exciting holidays' without 'an'. 'The party' and 'the night club' are too specific; use plural 'parties' and 'nightclubs' for general preference. Use 'they help me feel' and 'refreshed' (past participle adjective) for correct form.
