Views— Part 1 Informe

Sugerencia: Be more natural and concise. Start with a clear topic sentence, correct grammar (picture→pictures, a variety of→various, taking photo→taking photos, one of my important hobby→one of my main hobbies), and limit to 3–4 sentences. Add a linking word when giving an example.

Ejemplo: Yes, I enjoy taking pictures of different views. I especially like natural scenery such as forests and beaches, because I find them peaceful. For example, I often photograph the coastline when I visit the beach.

Sugerencia: Avoid repeating the examiner's question. Use correct articles and plurals (forest→forests, rural area→a rural area or the countryside). Begin with a direct statement, then give 1–2 specific reasons linked with a connector (because/so). Keep answers within 3–4 sentences.

Ejemplo: I prefer rural areas because I enjoy natural scenery like forests and beaches. Also, I live in the countryside, so I can often see beautiful woodland from my window. For these reasons I take most of my photos outside the city.

Sugerencia: Use clearer phrasing (prefer using my own country→prefer those in my own country). Correct grammar (forest→forests; at the weekend→on weekends; which create→which creates or creating). Start with a topic sentence, then give a specific example with a linking word (for example/also) and keep it concise.

Ejemplo: I prefer views in my own country because my city has beautiful forests and beaches. For example, on weekends I often go to the coastline to take photos and relax, which creates lasting memories.

× Yes, I like taking picture of a variety of views.

✓ Yes, I like taking pictures of a variety of views.

Use the plural 'pictures' because 'a variety of views' implies multiple items; 'taking picture' is ungrammatical. Suggestion: use plural nouns after verbs like 'taking' when you mean more than one item.

× Especially I love natural scenery like forest and beach.

✓ Especially, I love natural scenery like forests and the beach.

When listing examples, use plural for countable nouns ('forests') and the definite article for a specific noun used generally ('the beach'). Also add a comma after 'Especially'. Suggestion: use plural for general examples and 'the' when referring to a known category.

× Taking photo is one of my important hobby.

✓ Taking photos is one of my important hobbies.

Use plural 'photos' and 'hobbies' because 'one of my ...' requires a plural noun after 'of'. Also use 'important' before 'hobbies' for correct adjective-noun agreement. Suggestion: when using 'one of my', ensure the following noun is plural.

× Do you prefer views in urban areas or rural areas?

✓ Do you prefer views in urban areas or rural areas?

This repeated question by the student duplicates the examiner's question; while not a grammar error, it's a pragmatics/repetition issue. No grammatical correction needed. Suggestion: answer directly without repeating the question.

× I prefer rural areas because I love natural scenery like beaches and forest.

✓ I prefer rural areas because I love natural scenery like beaches and forests.

Use plural 'forests' to match 'beaches' and because multiple examples are implied. Suggestion: keep parallel structure when listing examples.

× I live in rural area and from the window I can always enjoy beautiful forest views.

✓ I live in a rural area, and from the window I can always enjoy beautiful forest views.

Include the article 'a' before 'rural area' and a comma before 'and' to join independent clauses. Suggestion: use 'a/an' with singular countable nouns and punctuate compound sentences.

× I prefer using my own country because my city has beautiful scenery such as forest and beaches.

✓ I prefer staying in my own country because my city has beautiful scenery such as forests and beaches.

The verb 'prefer' is normally followed by a noun phrase or gerund; 'prefer using my own country' is incorrect. 'Staying in my own country' or 'preferring my own country' works. Also pluralize 'forest' to 'forests' for parallelism. Suggestion: use 'prefer staying in' or simply 'I prefer my own country'.

× For example, I often go to the coastline at the weekend to take photos and relax, which create lasting memories.

✓ For example, I often go to the coastline at the weekend to take photos and relax, which creates lasting memories.

The relative clause 'which creates' refers to the singular idea 'going to the coastline' or the activity as a singular concept, so use singular verb 'creates'. Use 'creates' to agree with its antecedent. Suggestion: ensure subject-verb agreement in relative clauses; if referring to a singular idea use singular verb form.
