Views— Part 1 Report

Suggestion: Be more grammatical, concise and coherent. Start with a clear topic sentence, then give one or two specific supporting details using linking words. Correct verb forms and avoid repetition.

Example: Yes, I enjoy taking pictures of different views because photography helps me notice details I might otherwise miss. For example, when I photograph a sunset I focus on the changing colors and the way light falls on buildings, which helps me remember that moment clearly.

Suggestion: Give a direct preference with clear reasons and specific details. Use linking words (however, although, because) and correct phrasing (e.g. "I grew up in"). Avoid vague phrases like "I noticed that so."

Example: I prefer rural views because I grew up in the countryside and I appreciate natural landscapes. Although I now live in a city and enjoy its conveniences, I especially like open fields and quiet forests because they help me relax and feel connected to nature.

Suggestion: Answer directly and structure your response: state preference, then give specific reasons and examples. Reduce filler words (uh) and avoid repetitive phrases. Use clearer vocabulary (diverse landscapes, mix of urban and natural scenery).

Example: I enjoy views in both my country and others, but I find American landscapes especially varied. For example, in the United States you can see dramatic national parks, modern city skylines and coastal scenes all within a few hours' travel, which makes the scenery feel very diverse and interesting.

× I like taking pictures 'cause when I taking pictures I can see the world in other focus, so and I can take that view in this, in that moment, I can take that moment.

✓ I like taking pictures because when I take pictures I can see the world from a different perspective, and I can capture that view in the moment.

The phrase 'when I taking pictures' is incorrect because after 'when' we need a finite verb form, not the -ing form. This is a Verb + -ing form error (type 8). Use the simple present 'I take' for habitual actions. Also 'in other focus' is awkward; use 'from a different perspective' and 'take that moment' should be 'capture that view in the moment' for natural English. Suggestion: use simple present after time clauses for routines and choose appropriate collocations like 'capture a moment'.

× When I was young, I grew up in rural areas, so I always admire urban areas.

✓ When I was young, I grew up in a rural area, so I always admired urban areas.

The student used 'rural areas' but 'grew up in' typically pairs with 'a rural area' or 'the countryside' when speaking of a single upbringing location; this is a Singular and plural issue (type 1). Also 'admire' should be past 'admired' to match 'when I was young' (past context). Suggestion: match number and tense to context: use 'a rural area' and past tense for past-time descriptions.

× But now I'm living in urban areas, so the Mother Nature and the natural views are beautiful.

✓ But now I live in an urban area, so nature and the natural views are beautiful.

'I'm living' is acceptable for current continuous but 'live' is more natural for permanent residence; this is a Present tense issue (type 6). 'Urban areas' changed to 'an urban area' to match singular 'I live in'. 'the Mother Nature' is incorrect article usage and unnatural phrasing; use 'nature' without 'the' or 'Mother'. Suggestion: use simple present 'I live' for regular states and avoid unnecessary articles with 'nature'.

× I noticed that so.

✓ I have noticed that.

The original 'I noticed that so.' is ungrammatical and unclear — a Sentence structure error (type 26). For a present relevance comment, use present perfect 'I have noticed that.' If referring to a past observation, 'I noticed that' is fine without 'so.' Suggestion: remove 'so' or use appropriate tense: 'I have noticed that.'

× I like my country's view is pretty good, but when I, uh, travel to America, there's a lot of, uh, diverse views in there.

✓ I think my country's scenery is pretty good, but when I travel to America, there are a lot of diverse landscapes.

The sentence 'I like my country's view is pretty good' mixes structures; this is a There be issue (type 3) and sentence structure problem. Also 'there's a lot of ... views' should use plural 'there are a lot of ... views' because 'views' is plural. Suggestion: rephrase to 'I think my country's scenery is pretty good' and use 'there are' with plural nouns.

× So I like America's view because they have Mother Nature and urban areas and other and diverse peoples.

✓ So I like America's scenery because it has natural landscapes, urban areas, and diverse people.

Errors include inappropriate capitalization 'Mother Nature', awkward 'other and diverse peoples', and subject-pronoun disagreement 'they have' referring to 'America' (country treated as singular). This is an Incorrect use of adjectives or adverbs issue (type 13) combined with pronoun/number problems; focus here on adjective/noun choices. Use 'scenery' or 'landscapes' and 'diverse people' (uncountable/plural noun 'people' is fine). Suggestion: use consistent noun choices and correct agreement: 'America...it has...diverse people.'

× So there's many.

✓ So there are many.

'There's many' is incorrect because 'there's' contracts 'there is' which requires singular; with 'many' (plural) use 'there are many.' This is a Singular and plural issue (type 1). Suggestion: use 'there are' with plural nouns or 'there's a lot' with singular/uncountable reference.
