Views— Part 1 Informe

Sugerencia: Your answer is natural and relevant, with a clear topic sentence and personal feeling. To improve, avoid repetition (“yes, yes”), add one specific example or detail to make the response more vivid, and keep it within 3–4 sentences. Use a linking phrase to connect ideas (for example, “for example” or “as a result”).

Ejemplo: Yes, I do. I see photographs as symbols of memory, because they help me recall specific moments. For example, when I look at a photo from a family trip, I can remember the weather, the food we ate, and funny incidents that happened that day.

Sugerencia: Your answer communicates preference and personal background, but contains filler phrases (“Let's move on 100%”, “uh”, “so yeah”) and slight redundancy. Improve by starting directly with the topic sentence, removing fillers, and adding a concrete supporting detail (e.g., specific scenery or activity) using a linking word like “because” or “for example.” Keep it concise (2–4 sentences).

Ejemplo: I prefer rural views because I grew up in a village and they feel familiar to me. For example, I enjoy watching misty fields in the morning and walking through forests, which are peaceful and full of green scenery.

Sugerencia: Your answer expresses strong opinion and reasons, but repeats words (“really”) and has a minor hesitation/repetition (“of of”). Improve by varying vocabulary, giving one specific example of a place or season, and linking reason to the preference with “because” or “for instance.” Keep it within 2–4 polished sentences.

Ejemplo: I prefer views in my own country because Russia offers dramatic seasonal changes and diverse landscapes. For instance, I love seeing birch forests in spring and colorful taiga in autumn, which makes the scenery especially beautiful to me.

× I see the pictures as symbols of memory.

✓ I see pictures as symbols of memory.

The definite article 'the' implies specific pictures previously identified. In this context the student speaks about pictures in general, so the zero article (no article) is correct. Suggestion: omit 'the' when referring to things in general.

× It's really nice to look at them after some time and remember all of these stories that are behind them.

✓ It's really nice to look at them after some time and remember all the stories behind them.

The phrase 'all of these stories that are behind them' is wordy and uses demonstrative 'these' unnecessarily. Use 'all the stories behind them' for natural present-tense description. Suggestion: simplify noun phrases and avoid redundant words like 'that are' when a reduced form is clearer.

× Let's move on 100%.

✓ Let's move on.

'100%' is colloquial and awkward in this context; it does not fit formal spoken response and disrupts sentence structure. Removing it produces a natural instruction. Suggestion: use concise phrasing appropriate to the situation.

× I grew up in a village and that's why I feel like they are so close to me.

✓ I grew up in a village and that's why it feels so familiar to me.

The pronoun 'they' incorrectly refers back to 'a village' (singular) causing mismatch. Replacing with 'it' or rephrasing to 'feels so familiar' corrects number agreement and clarity. Suggestion: ensure pronouns agree in number and clearly refer to a specific noun.

× And I really appreciate, uh, rural views as they are really peaceful and I also really love greenery.

✓ And I really appreciate rural views because they are peaceful, and I also love greenery.

Repeated 'really' is redundant and 'as' is less natural than 'because' here. Streamlining improves fluency and correctness. Suggestion: avoid overusing intensifiers and choose natural conjunctions.

× I prefer views in my country.

✓ I prefer views in my own country.

'My country' is grammatical but 'my own country' is more natural when contrasting with other countries as in the question. Suggestion: use 'my own country' to emphasize possession in comparisons.

× I really believe that Russia is the most beautiful country in the world.

✓ I believe that Russia is the most beautiful country in the world.

'Really' is unnecessary with 'believe' and can weaken formality. The sentence is grammatical but can be made more natural without the extra adverb. Suggestion: omit redundant adverbs for clearer statements.

× I really like the change of of seasons and the amount of greenery that a person can find there.

✓ I really like the change of seasons and the amount of greenery one can find there.

There is a repeated word 'of of' (typo) and 'a person' is wordy; 'one' is more natural. Also 'change of seasons' is the correct phrase. Suggestion: correct typos and prefer concise impersonal pronouns like 'one' or 'you' in general statements.

× It's just really gorgeous.

✓ It's just gorgeous.

'Really' is redundant with 'gorgeous' and removing it sharpens the statement. Suggestion: avoid stacking intensifiers when an adjective already conveys strong meaning.
