Views— Part 1 Report

Suggestion: Your answer is clear and shows enthusiasm, but it is slightly informal and a little repetitive. Make the response more natural by using one strong topic sentence, then add a brief specific detail or example. Avoid listing items without connectors and correct small grammar issues (e.g., “I'm obsessed with” can sound extreme; “I love” is more natural).

Example: I love taking photographs and hope to become a professional photographer. For example, I often photograph landmarks and natural scenes like mountains and rivers because I enjoy capturing dramatic lighting and unique angles.

Suggestion: Your meaning is clear but there are several grammar and coherence errors. Use a concise topic sentence, correct comparisons (use 'the countryside' or 'rural areas'), and include linking words for clarity. Reduce redundancy and avoid incorrect pluralization (e.g., 'skyscrapers, crowds').

Example: I prefer rural areas to big cities because the countryside feels calmer. For instance, I enjoy watching sunsets over rivers and mountains, which is much more peaceful than the crowded streets and towering skyscrapers of urban areas.

Suggestion: Good idea and relevant content, but improve fluency and word choice. Use 'scenery' or 'landscapes' instead of 'views' repeatedly, fix articles and plural forms (e.g., 'glaciers', 'islands'), and give one specific example to support your preference.

Example: I prefer landscapes in my own country because China is so vast and varied. For example, I can visit glaciers in the northwest, climb mountains in the west, or relax on seaside islands in the south, so there's always somewhere new to photograph.

× Yes, I'm obsessed with taking pictures and I really want to be a photographer. I enjoy taking pictures of landmarks and mountains, rivers.

✓ Yes, I'm obsessed with taking pictures and I really want to be a photographer. I enjoy taking pictures of landmarks, mountains, and rivers.

Lists require parallel items separated by commas and a final conjunction for clarity. The original sentence used commas inconsistently; adding 'and' before the last item and placing commas correctly makes the list grammatically correct and improves readability.

× I prefer views in countryside than in big cities because the big cities is surrounded with skyscrapers crowds and I don't like that.

✓ I prefer views in the countryside to those in big cities because the big cities are surrounded by crowds of skyscrapers, and I don't like that.

When comparing preferences, use 'prefer A to B' not 'prefer A than B'. Also 'countryside' needs the definite article 'the'. 'Surrounded with' is less natural than 'surrounded by'. 'Skyscrapers crowds' is incorrect word order; use 'crowds of skyscrapers' or better 'skyscrapers' alone. Subject-verb agreement: 'the big cities are' not 'is'.

× I just feel the life here is too busy so I more enjoy the sunset in countryside and the rivers and the mountains.

✓ I just feel life here is too busy, so I enjoy the sunsets in the countryside and the rivers and mountains more.

Word order and placement of adverbs matter: place 'more' after the clause or after the verb for clarity. Use plural 'sunsets' for habitual enjoyment and add 'the' before 'countryside'. Combine ideas with a comma before 'so'. Also 'the rivers and mountains' does not need repeated 'the' for both nouns.

× I prefer views in my own country because China is such an enormous country and we have different views like glacier, mountains, seas, the islands.

✓ I prefer views in my own country because China is such an enormous country, and we have different landscapes like glaciers, mountains, seas, and islands.

Use 'landscapes' or 'scenery' instead of 'views' to list natural features. Use plural nouns consistently: 'glaciers' not 'glacier'. Use commas and 'and' in a list. 'The islands' is not necessary; use 'islands'. Also add a comma before 'and' in a compound sentence.
