Views— Part 1 Report

Suggestion: Improve grammar, reduce redundancy, and make sentences more natural and coherent. Use a clear topic sentence, correct verb forms, and link supporting details with a connector. Be specific about an example and avoid rhetorical questions that sound informal in this test context.

Example: Yes, I enjoy photographing different views because it helps me capture fleeting moments and notice details I would otherwise miss. For example, I often take photos of city skylines at sunset, when the changing colors and reflections make the scene especially striking.

Suggestion: Correct word choice and grammar, and make the answer coherent with logical linking. Use proper nouns/phrases (crowded city), replace unclear fragments (Scabs walking...) with concrete descriptions, and keep answer within 3–4 clear sentences. Provide a reason and a short example.

Example: I prefer views in rural areas because the open space, greenery and fresh air feel more relaxing than in a crowded city. For instance, walking along a riverside field helps me unwind after a busy week, and the quiet scenery makes it easier to relax.

Suggestion: This answer is fairly natural and relevant but can be improved by briefly adding a specific example and a linking word to explain why the difference is refreshing. Keep it concise and varied vocabulary.

Example: I prefer views in other countries because they often feature landscapes and architectural styles I don't see at home, which is refreshing. For example, visiting coastal villages in a foreign country exposed me to colorful houses and unique cliffside views that felt exciting and new.

× Yes, I enjoy taking pictures of different views because it help me capture fleeting moments and appreciate details I might otherwise miss.

✓ Yes, I enjoy taking pictures of different views because it helps me capture fleeting moments and appreciate details I might otherwise miss.

Subject-verb agreement with present simple: 'I' takes the base verb 'help' but here the verb 'help' refers to the act of taking pictures (singular concept), so 'helps' is required. Use 'helps' to match third-person singular subject implied by 'taking pictures'. Improve by ensuring the verb agrees with its subject in present simple tense.

× For example, I obtain photographed city skylines at sunset.

✓ For example, I have photographed city skylines at sunset.

Incorrect verb form: 'obtain photographed' is ungrammatical. Use the present perfect 'have photographed' to indicate experiences up to now. Alternatively, 'I photograph city skylines at sunset' (simple present) for habitual action. Choose present perfect for past experiences and simple present for habits.

× Remember the changing colors?

✓ Do you remember the changing colors?

Fragment and register: 'Remember the changing colors?' is a reduced question but sounds abrupt in this context. Add the auxiliary 'Do' to form a standard yes/no question in present simple. This clarifies the subject and verb structure.

× I prefer use in rural areas because the open space, greenery and fresh air feel more relaxing and restorative compared to the crowned city.

✓ I prefer rural areas because the open space, greenery, and fresh air feel more relaxing and restorative compared to the crowded city.

Incorrect verb phrase 'prefer use in' — 'prefer' should be followed by a noun or gerund without 'use'. Also 'crowned city' is a wrong word choice; 'crowded city' fits the meaning. Correct the noun phrase after 'prefer' and fix vocabulary. Ensure commas between list items.

× Scabs walking by the field of rivers help me and win a still busy week.

✓ Strolls by fields or rivers help me unwind during a busy week.

Multiple errors: 'Scabs' is incorrect word; likely meant 'strolls' or 'walks'. 'Field of rivers' is nonsensical; use 'fields or rivers' or 'a field or a river'. 'Win a still busy week' is ungrammatical; likely meant 'unwind during a busy week'. Reconstruct the sentence for correct vocabulary, pronoun/subject usage, and clear meaning.

× I prefer views in other countries because they often offer landscapes and architectural styles that are different from what I see at home, which feels refreshing and exciting.

✓ I prefer views in other countries because they often offer landscapes and architectural styles that are different from what I see at home, which feel refreshing and exciting.

Relative pronoun 'which' refers to 'landscapes and architectural styles' (plural), so the verb should be plural 'feel' not singular 'feels'. Ensure subject-verb agreement with the plural antecedent.
