礼物— Part 1 評分報告

建議: Make your answer more natural and concise. Start with a clear topic sentence, then add one or two specific supporting details using linking words. Correct grammar (e.g., tense and articles) and fewer repetitions will help.

範例: Yes, I think I'm quite good at giving gifts. I usually spend time researching the recipient’s hobbies and preferences, so I can pick something personal. For example, for a friend who loves cooking I might buy a specialty spice set.

建議: Be specific and clearer in phrasing. Use a topic sentence and one or two concrete examples. Fix grammar (e.g., ‘occasion’ instead of ‘university’, ‘we’ve known each other for ten years’).

範例: I usually give gifts on birthdays and special anniversaries. For instance, I gave a present to a friend when we celebrated ten years of friendship last month.

建議: Organize into a clear two-part answer: main criteria then reason. Use linking words (first, then, because) correctly and correct small grammar errors and word choice. Be specific about what ‘suitable’ means.

範例: I consider suitability first and then cost. First, I try to choose something that matches the recipient’s tastes or needs; then, because I’m a student, I usually set a modest budget and look for affordable but thoughtful options.

建議: Keep it concise and natural: give a clear topic sentence, one specific detail about the gift, and the result. Correct article and tense use and avoid redundancy (e.g., 'lots of time' and 'exquisite').

範例: Yes. For my mother’s last birthday I made a handmade card with photos and a heartfelt message. She loved it because it felt personal and showed I’d invested time and care.

建議: State your opinion clearly, then support it with a reason and an example. Improve grammar and word choice (e.g., ‘indicate’ → ‘may show’, ‘not the most suitable’).

範例: No, I don’t think expensive gifts are necessarily better. They may show that someone can afford something, but a thoughtful, appropriate gift often expresses feelings more strongly—for example, a meaningful photo album rather than an expensive watch.

× I will spend lots of time choosing it and research what the person I give the gifts like and their hobby.

✓ I will spend lots of time choosing it and researching what the person I give the gifts to likes and what their hobbies are.

Incorrect parallel structure and gerund usage: when using 'spend time', the verbs should be in -ing form (choosing, researching). Also missing 'to' after 'give the gifts' and subject-verb agreement with 'person...likes'. Clarify 'hobby' as plural 'hobbies' and add 'what' for clarity. Suggestion: use parallel gerunds and ensure correct preposition and agreement.

× Usually at their birthday or some university such as I will give a gift to my friend for our 10 years of knowing each others.

✓ Usually on their birthday or at some university events; for example, I will give a gift to my friend to celebrate our 10 years of knowing each other.

Incorrect preposition with 'birthday' (use 'on') and awkward phrase 'some university' and 'knowing each others'. Use 'at some university events' if intended, and correct pronoun phrase to 'knowing each other' (no plural 'others'). Also 'for example' clarifies the example. Ensure prepositions and plural forms are correct.

× At first I will think whether the gift is suitable or appealing and then it is the financial factor.

✓ First I think about whether the gift is suitable or appealing, and then I consider the financial factor.

Tense and word choice: mixing 'will' with general preference statements is unnatural; use present simple for habitual actions ('I think', 'I consider'). Also 'it is the financial factor' is awkward; rephrase to 'I consider the financial factor'. Use parallel verbs for clarity.

× Because I'm a student, I don't have a lot of money, so I only spend limited money in.

✓ Because I'm a student, I don't have a lot of money, so I only spend a limited amount of money.

Incorrect phrase 'spend limited money in' and missing noun: use 'a limited amount of money'. Also 'spend ... on' could be used with an object; here 'amount of money' is clearer. Adjust word order and articles.

× Yes, just last birthday of my mother.

✓ Yes, it was just my mother's last birthday.

Sentence fragment and incorrect noun phrase order: 'last birthday of my mother' is unnatural in English. Use possessive 'my mother's' and include a verb to form a complete sentence ('it was').

× I presented her a handmade birthday card and I spent lots of time making it, which is exquisite and my mom really liked it.

✓ I gave her a handmade birthday card and spent a lot of time making it; it was exquisite and my mom really liked it.

Word choice and tense consistency: 'presented' is formal; 'gave' is more natural here. Use 'a lot of' instead of 'lots of' in formal responses. The clause 'which is exquisite' should match past tense 'was exquisite'. Combine sentences for clarity.

× Do expensive gifts better express your feelings?

✓ Do expensive gifts better express your feelings than inexpensive ones?

Comparative sentence lacks a comparison object. To ask whether expensive gifts express feelings more, include 'than' and the comparison target (e.g., 'inexpensive ones'). This clarifies the comparative structure.

× No, I think expensive gift indicates that you are wealthy, but not a most suitable gift for that per person.

✓ No, I think an expensive gift indicates that you are wealthy, but it is not the most suitable gift for that person.

Article and adjective errors: singular 'gift' needs 'an'. Use definite article 'the most suitable' rather than 'a most suitable'. 'For that per person' is incorrect; use 'for that person'. Also include 'it is' for grammatical completeness.
