Views— Part 1 Report

Suggestion: Improve grammar and fluency: use correct verb forms (e.g., 'love taking' not 'love to taking'), reduce hesitation words (uh, umm), and avoid repetition. Structure your answer with a clear topic sentence followed by 1–2 supporting details using linking words (for example, 'because' or 'so'). Add one specific example to make your answer more vivid.

Example: I enjoy taking pictures of different views. Because I grew up in a mountainous hometown, I often photograph hills and wide landscapes, so I focus on capturing the layers of mountains at sunrise to show the light and colors.

Suggestion: Correct tense and grammar, avoid filler words, and be concise. Start with a direct topic sentence stating your preference, then give one clear reason and a specific detail or short example. Use linking words like 'because' or 'however' to connect ideas.

Example: I prefer rural views because I grew up in a mountainous hometown called Murray. For example, the scenery there has rolling hills and dense forests, which I find more peaceful and photogenic than busy city streets.

Suggestion: Be clearer and avoid repetition. Give a direct answer (both) then explain briefly why, with a specific supporting point for each case. Use correct grammar and finish your sentences. Reduce hesitations and replace vague phrases with concrete details.

Example: I prefer views in both my country and other countries because each place offers different scenery. For instance, at home I enjoy photographing familiar mountain landscapes, while abroad I like capturing unique urban architecture or coastal scenes that I can't find locally.

× Uh, well, I love to taking pictures of different views because I belong to, uh, mountainous area, my hometown in, uh, mountains, so I used to, for it.

✓ Uh, well, I love taking pictures of different views because I come from a mountainous area; my hometown is in the mountains, so I used to do that.

The verb pattern 'love to taking' mixes the infinitive marker 'to' with a gerund '-ing'. After verbs like 'love' we can use either the gerund (loving taking) or the infinitive (love to take), but not 'love to taking'. Also 'belong to, mountainous area' is incorrect collocation: say 'come from a mountainous area' or 'belong to a mountainous area' without extra commas. 'I used to, for it' is ungrammatical; intended meaning is 'I used to do that.' Suggestions: use 'I love taking' or 'I love to take', use 'come from a mountainous area' and replace the fragmented clause with 'I used to do that.'

× Umm, I love to taking pictures of different views.

✓ Umm, I love taking pictures of different views.

Same error as above: 'love to taking' incorrectly combines 'to' + gerund. Use either 'love to take' (infinitive) or 'love taking' (gerund). Here 'love taking' is natural.

× There are lots of mountains, there are a lot of hills, a lot of landscapes, so I love nature.

✓ There are lots of mountains, a lot of hills and landscapes, so I love nature.

The original has redundant repetition and slight awkwardness with commas. 'A lot of landscapes' is acceptable but smoother as 'landscapes'. No major grammatical article error but streamlining improves clarity. Suggestion: combine items with 'and' and avoid repeated 'there are' where possible.

× Uh, well, I preferred views of rural area because I am belong to a mountainous hometown, uh, called Murray.

✓ Uh, well, I prefer views of rural areas because I come from a mountainous hometown called Murray.

The student used 'preferred' (past) while the question asks about a general preference, so present simple 'prefer' is correct. 'I am belong to' is ungrammatical: use 'I belong to' (but better 'I come from'). 'Rural area' should be plural 'rural areas' in general statements. Suggestions: use present simple for general preferences and correct verb forms: 'I prefer... because I come from...'.

× Uh, so that's why I used, uh, used to, for it.

✓ Uh, so that's why I used to do that.

The phrase 'used, used to, for it' is disfluent and ungrammatical. The correct pattern is 'used to' + base verb to indicate past habitual actions, or 'used to do that' to refer back. Suggestion: say 'I used to do that' or, if meaning present habit because of background, 'that's why I do that.'

× Umm, their scenery are amazing.

✓ Umm, their scenery is amazing.

The noun 'scenery' is an uncountable singular noun and requires singular verb 'is', not 'are'. Suggestion: use 'scenery is amazing' or 'the scenery is amazing.'

× Uh, there's too much nature.

✓ Uh, there's a lot of nature.

'There's' (there is) is acceptable with 'too much nature' if complaining about excess; however 'too much nature' sounds odd. If intention is to say there is abundant nature, 'there's a lot of nature' or 'there is so much nature' is better. This corrects nuance rather than strict grammar. Suggestion: use 'there is a lot of nature' or 'there is so much nature.'

× Uh, well, I prefer both because, uh, each country has their own, uh, perspectives, uh, has their own views.

✓ Uh, well, I prefer both because each country has its own perspectives and views.

Mixed pronoun agreement: 'each country' is singular and should take singular possessive 'its' rather than 'their'. Also duplicate structure 'has their own, has their own' is redundant. Suggestion: use 'each... its...' and combine related nouns: 'its own perspectives and views.'

× Uh, when I travel to another country, I love to, uh, capture the view of another country when I was in my country.

✓ Uh, when I travel to another country, I love to capture the view; when I am in my country, I also love to take pictures.

Original mixes tenses and forms: 'I love to, uh, capture' is interrupted but should be 'love to capture' or 'love capturing.' The clause 'when I was in my country' uses past tense 'was' though the context is general; it should be present 'am'. Also 'capture the view of another country when I was in my country' is confusing. Suggestion: separate into two parallel present-tense statements: 'When I travel to another country, I love to capture its views; when I am in my country, I also love to take pictures.'

× So I love to, uh, taking pictures of my.

✓ So I love taking pictures of it/my country.

Again 'love to taking' is incorrect; use 'love taking' or 'love to take'. The sentence ends incomplete 'of my.' Complete object: 'of my country' or 'of it.' Suggestion: use 'I love taking pictures of my country' or 'I love taking pictures there.'
