Internet— Part 1 Informe

Sugerencia: Be more fluent and grammatical: use past tense consistently, reduce fillers, and give a clearer time reference with one supporting reason. Keep answer within 2–3 sentences and link ideas (e.g. 'because' or 'so').

Ejemplo: I started using the internet when I was at school because I needed information for my assignments. For example, I used it to research new technologies and learn how to complete projects more effectively.

Sugerencia: Use correct verb forms and combine ideas into coherent sentences. Replace short fragments with linking words like 'to' and 'for' and give a brief reason for frequency. Aim for 2–3 polished sentences.

Ejemplo: I go online every day to use social media, chat with friends and play games. I do this mainly for entertainment and to relax after a long week.

Sugerencia: Answer directly with clear tense and a short explanation. Use linking phrase such as 'for example' to show the context and avoid filler words. One or two sentences is enough.

Ejemplo: Yes. For example, during exams I am not allowed to use the internet because I must complete the test without outside help.

Sugerencia: Be concise and avoid irrelevant fragments. State your opinion, give 1–2 specific reasons and, if possible, mention a consequence or a plan to change. Use correct plural forms and remove off-topic question at the end.

Ejemplo: Yes, I think I spend too much time online because I play games, chat on social media and watch short videos on TikTok. As a result, I sometimes feel tired and I plan to limit my screen time by setting daily time limits.

Sugerencia: Good content and specific activities—improve grammar and sentence flow. Use correct phrases ('both my mental and physical health', 'socialize with strangers') and link reasons with 'because' or 'so'. Keep it to 2–3 sentences.

Ejemplo: Without the internet, I would play sports such as table tennis, badminton or go swimming because these activities improve both my mental and physical health. I would also have more opportunities to meet and socialize with new people in person.

× Umm, I start using the Internet, uh, when I, uh, studying uh, school.

✓ Umm, I started using the Internet when I was studying at school.

The student uses present tense 'start' and a gerund fragment 'studying school' where past tense and past continuous are required to describe a past action. Use 'started' for an action that began in the past and 'was studying' or 'while I was at school' to show the ongoing past context. Also add the preposition 'at' before 'school'. Suggestions: Use past simple for the start time (started) and past continuous for background (was studying), and include appropriate prepositions.

× Umm, because I can't find my uh, inform INF information about my uh, assignment and uh, new technology uh, to do it effectively.

✓ Umm, because I couldn't find information about my assignment and about new technologies to do it effectively.

The sentence has wrong tense and preposition use: 'can't' should match past context ('couldn't' if referring to past), 'inform INF information' is redundant, and 'about' should link 'information' to its topic. Use plural 'technologies' when speaking generally. Suggestions: Remove redundancy, choose correct tense for context, and use 'about' to introduce topics.

× MMM I go online everyday to use social media, chat with my friend and playing games to instant link.

✓ I go online every day to use social media, chat with my friends and play games to relax.

Mixed verb forms appear: 'go online' present simple is fine, but parallel verbs should share form: 'use', 'chat', 'play' (not 'playing'). 'Every day' is two words. 'Instant link' is unclear; replaced with 'relax' to convey purpose. Suggestions: Keep parallel structure for verbs and correct spacing in 'every day'.

× Entertain it. Entertain in play my mind after a long week.

✓ It entertains me and clears my mind after a long week.

Fragments and incorrect pronoun/object usage: 'Entertain it' is incorrect object placement; 'entertains me' correctly shows what is entertained. 'Entertain in play my mind' is ungrammatical; use 'clears my mind'. Suggestions: Use full sentences with subject and verb, and the correct object pronoun 'me'.

× MMM yes uh, when I do the exam I cannot use the Internet to find information about it and acknowledge through my exam.

✓ Yes, when I take exams I cannot use the Internet to find information during them.

Tense and verb choice errors: 'do the exam' is non-native—use 'take exams'. 'Cannot' should be present habitual or past depending on context; here use present habitual 'cannot' or 'can't' with plural 'exams'. 'Acknowledge through my exam' is incorrect phrasing; use 'during them' or 'while taking them'. Suggestions: Use natural collocations like 'take an exam' and 'during the exam'.

× Yes, I spend too much time online to play games, use social media to chat with my friend and scroll on TikTok to see an entertaining videos.

✓ Yes, I spend too much time online playing games, using social media to chat with my friends and scrolling on TikTok to watch entertaining videos.

Verb forms should be parallel and use -ing after 'spend time': 'spend time doing something'. 'My friend' should be plural if general ('friends'). 'See' is less appropriate than 'watch' for videos. Remove extra article 'an' before 'entertaining videos'. Suggestions: Use gerunds after 'spend time' and keep parallel -ing structures.

× In what comedy movies?

✓ (Do you mean) comedy movies?

This fragment is unclear and lacks structure. As a follow-up question it should be phrased fully, e.g. 'Do you mean comedy movies?' or 'Like comedy movies?'. Suggestions: Use a complete question form and supply missing auxiliary verb.

× And without the Internet, I will go to play sport such as table tennis, badminton or swimming because it can help improve my both mental health and physical health.

✓ Without the Internet, I would play sports such as table tennis, badminton or go swimming because they can help improve both my mental and physical health.

Choice of modal: 'will' is acceptable but 'would' better expresses hypothetical. 'Go to play sport' is unidiomatic; use 'play sports' or 'go swimming'. 'It can help improve my both mental health and physical health' has pronoun and word order errors; use plural 'they' for multiple activities and 'both my mental and physical health'. Suggestions: Use 'would' for hypothetical situations, correct collocations ('play sports', 'go swimming'), and place 'both' before the two items.

× Also clear my mind after a long week and I can socialize with stranger.

✓ It also clears my mind after a long week and I can socialize with strangers.

Sentence fragments and noun number: 'Also clear my mind' lacks subject—add 'It' or 'They'. 'Stranger' should be plural 'strangers' for general meaning. Suggestions: Ensure sentences have subjects and use plural forms for general statements.
