Views— Part 1 Report

Suggestion: Be clearer and more natural. Start with a direct topic sentence (e.g., “Yes, I enjoy taking pictures of different views.”), correct grammar, avoid irrelevant or confusing details, and give one or two specific supporting details about what you like to photograph and why. Use linking words like “because” or “for example” correctly.

Example: Yes, I enjoy taking pictures of different views. For example, I like photographing city skylines and coastal landscapes because they show contrasting colours and moods. When I was at university I took a photography course, which helped me learn how to compose shots and use natural light.

Suggestion: Give a clear direct answer first, correct grammar and complete the reason. Mention specific aspects you prefer about urban views and link sentences logically. Avoid repetition and include one concrete example or detail (e.g., architecture, lights, activity).

Example: I prefer views in urban areas. I enjoy the variety of architecture and the lively street scenes they offer. For instance, in Tokyo I appreciate the mix of modern skyscrapers and traditional temples, and the city lights at night make the skyline interesting to photograph.

Suggestion: Answer directly and expand with specific supporting details. Explain what “different types of views” means (e.g., mountains, beaches, historic towns) and give a brief comparison with other countries. Avoid asking questions back to the examiner and keep it within a few coherent sentences.

Example: I prefer views in my own country because it offers a wide range of landscapes, from mountains to coastal beaches and historic villages. For example, I can travel a short distance and see both rice terraces and old towns, which makes exploring and photographing the scenery very rewarding compared with travelling abroad.

× Yes I do because I was studying right to photo in my university and then I printed pictures of myself in the rubble.

✓ Yes, I do because I studied photography at my university, and then I printed pictures of myself among the rubble.

The original mixes present 'I do' with past continuous 'was studying' and uses incorrect phrase 'right to photo'. Use simple past 'studied' to describe completed education. Replace 'right to photo' with 'photography' and use 'at my university'. 'In the rubble' is awkward; 'among the rubble' is clearer. Also add commas for clarity.

× I like builds in urban areas because my hometown is rural areas so I moved to moved to Tokyo for 2.

✓ I like buildings in urban areas because my hometown is rural, so I moved to Tokyo when I was 20.

'Builds' is incorrect; use the noun 'buildings'. 'Rural areas' should be singular or 'rural' as adjective describing hometown. The phrase 'moved to moved to' is a repetition; remove duplicate. 'for 2' is unclear—likely intended age '20' or 'for two years'; choose appropriate meaning (here corrected to 'when I was 20'). Use commas to separate clauses.

× I prefer beauty in my country because my country has different types of views. Which?

✓ I prefer the scenery in my country because it has many different kinds of views.

'Beauty' is vague; 'scenery' or 'views' is better. Repeating 'my country' is redundant; use pronoun 'it'. 'Different types of views' is wordy—'many different kinds of views' reads naturally. The final 'Which?' is unclear and unnecessary, so it is omitted.
