Part 1
考官
Do you like shopping?
考生
There's a really light shopping, especially when I have enough free time to go around. I mostly spend Saturday and Sunday for shopping. Uh, it's really helped me to relax and recharge my energy.
考官
Do you compare prices when you shop? Why?
考生
Yes I always take the price first before purchasing them because as a student I always have a limit budget for whatever I want to buy. It's quiet overwhelming for me when the price over 1,000,000 so I have to check it first.
考官
Is it difficult for you to make choices when you shop?
考生
No, really difficult for me. Well, whenever I go shopping, MMM, the first thing I look up for the product is uh, does it expiry and uh, the quality and the price and then I just buy. I don't make much choice.
考官
Do you think expensive products are always better than cheaper ones?
考生
From my point of view, I think expensive products are more trustworthy and better as they use better quality. But some cheap products are also good as their own way. It depends on what types of things.

× There's a really light shopping, especially when I have enough free time to go around.
✓ There's really light shopping, especially when I have enough free time to go around.
The phrase 'There's a really light shopping' is incorrect because 'shopping' is an uncountable noun and should not be preceded by the article 'a'. Removing 'a' corrects the sentence.
× I mostly spend Saturday and Sunday for shopping.
✓ I mostly spend Saturday and Sunday shopping.
The preposition 'for' is incorrectly used here. The verb 'spend' is followed directly by a gerund to indicate the activity, so 'shopping' should follow without 'for'.
× Uh, it's really helped me to relax and recharge my energy.
✓ Uh, it really helps me to relax and recharge my energy.
The present perfect 'it's really helped' is inappropriate here because the action is habitual. The simple present 'it really helps' correctly expresses a habitual action.
× Yes I always take the price first before purchasing them because as a student I always have a limit budget for whatever I want to buy.
✓ Yes, I always check the price first before purchasing because, as a student, I always have a limited budget for whatever I want to buy.
The phrase 'take the price' is incorrect; 'check the price' is appropriate. Also, 'limit budget' should be 'limited budget'. Commas are added for clarity.
× It's quiet overwhelming for me when the price over 1,000,000 so I have to check it first.
✓ It's quite overwhelming for me when the price is over 1,000,000, so I have to check it first.
The adverb 'quiet' is incorrect; it should be 'quite'. Also, the verb 'is' is missing after 'price' to complete the clause.
× No, really difficult for me.
✓ No, it's really difficult for me.
The sentence lacks a verb. Adding 'it's' completes the sentence structure.
× Well, whenever I go shopping, MMM, the first thing I look up for the product is uh, does it expiry and uh, the quality and the price and then I just buy.
✓ Well, whenever I go shopping, the first thing I look for in the product is whether it has expired, its quality, and the price, and then I just buy it.
The phrase 'look up for' is incorrect; it should be 'look for'. 'Does it expiry' is incorrect; it should be 'whether it has expired'. Also, 'buy' needs an object 'it'.
× I don't make much choice.
✓ I don't make many choices.
'Choice' is countable here, so 'many choices' is correct instead of 'much choice'.
× From my point of view, I think expensive products are more trustworthy and better as they use better quality.
✓ From my point of view, I think expensive products are more trustworthy and better because they use better quality materials.
The phrase 'as they use better quality' is incomplete. Adding 'materials' clarifies the comparison.
× But some cheap products are also good as their own way.
✓ But some cheap products are also good in their own way.
The preposition 'as' is incorrect here; it should be 'in' to express 'in their own way'.
× It depends on what types of things.
✓ It depends on the types of things.
The phrase 'what types of things' is awkward here; 'the types of things' is more appropriate.
