Weather— Part 1 Report

Suggestion: Be more concise and accurate. Start with a clear topic sentence describing the climate, avoid hesitations and repetition, and use correct terms (dry and rainy seasons). Add one brief supporting detail. Keep to 1–2 sentences.

Example: I live in Indonesia, where there are two main seasons: a dry season and a rainy season. The dry season is hot and sunny, while the rainy season brings heavy showers and higher humidity.

Suggestion: Provide a clear reason and avoid vague phrases. Give one or two specific reasons using linking words (because, so). Correct word choice (e.g., “feel comfortable” rather than “enjoy the fight”). Limit to 2–3 sentences.

Example: I prefer cold weather because I feel more comfortable and I sleep better when it's cool. Also, I like wearing warm clothes, which I find cozy and relaxing.

Suggestion: Avoid repetition and expand with a brief reason or example. Use a linking word to connect your preference to the reason. Keep it to 1–2 sentences and use natural phrasing.

Example: I prefer wet weather because I enjoy the sound and smell of rain, which feels calming to me. For example, I like staying indoors with a warm drink when it rains.

Suggestion: Answer directly and give a brief explanation of your routine. Remove hesitations and redundant words. Use a linking phrase (however, so) if you contrast habits. Keep to 1–2 sentences.

Example: I don't usually check the weather forecast; if I need to go out I typically leave without looking it up. However, I might check it if I'm planning a long trip or an outdoor event.

Suggestion: Provide a clear and specific answer with examples of effects (extreme weather, health, agriculture). Avoid vague words and hesitations. Use linking words (for example, therefore) and correct grammar. Limit to 2–3 sentences.

Example: Climate change has caused more extreme weather events, such as stronger storms and longer droughts, which harm agriculture and infrastructure. It also affects health, for example by increasing heat-related illnesses and the spread of some diseases.

Suggestion: Answer directly and give a specific destination or reason. Correct phrasing and avoid repetition. Use a linking word to explain your motivation. Keep to 1–2 sentences.

Example: Yes, I would like to visit places with different climates, such as Japan in winter, because I want to experience snow and cooler temperatures. Traveling overseas would give me a chance to try winter sports and see a very different environment.

× I live in Indonesia so we have two weather hot and rainy.

✓ I live in Indonesia, so we have two kinds of weather: hot and rainy.

The student omitted a quantifier for 'weather' and used 'two weather' which is uncountable; use 'two kinds of weather' or 'two types of weather' to indicate countable categories and add a colon for clarity.

× I I mean uh, dry and rainy.

✓ I mean, dry and rainy.

There is a repeated filler 'I I' and an unnecessary 'uh' that interrupts the sentence. Removing the repetition yields a clear phrase listing the two weather types.

× I will go with cold weather.

✓ I would choose cold weather.

The question asks for preference in general; using 'would' or 'prefer' is more appropriate than simple future 'I will', which implies a future action. 'I would choose' expresses preference.

× I have no specific reason why I like it.

✓ I don't have a specific reason why I like it.

Use the negative auxiliary 'do' for present simple negation: 'I don't have' instead of 'I have no' is also acceptable, but changing to 'don't have' matches conversational tone and subject-verb structure.

× I just feel like enjoy.

✓ I just feel like enjoying it.

After 'feel like' the verb should be in the -ing form (gerund): 'enjoying'. Also add 'it' as the object for clarity.

× I can enjoy the fight and then I can uh, fall asleep.

✓ I can enjoy the night and then I can fall asleep.

'Fight' is likely a mispronunciation or wrong word; context (cold weather helps sleep) suggests 'night'. Removing 'uh' improves fluency. Ensure vocabulary matches intended meaning.

× For me, I prefer to have wet weather.

✓ For me, I prefer wet weather.

The verb 'prefer' does not need 'to have' here; 'prefer wet weather' is more natural in English. Present simple 'prefer' correctly expresses habitual preference.

× Like what I said before, I like wet weather.

✓ As I said before, I like wet weather.

Use 'As I said before' or 'Like I said before' for reference to prior statements. The present 'I like' is correct; adjust the opening phrase for naturalness.

× I'm not a person like that.

✓ I'm not that kind of person.

'That kind of person' is the idiomatic expression in English. The present 'I'm not' is fine; reorder words to match standard usage.

× If I want to go somewhere, I just, I, I just go without watching weather forecast.

✓ If I want to go somewhere, I just go without checking the weather forecast.

Use 'checking' with 'weather forecast' and include the definite article 'the': 'the weather forecast'. Remove repeated fillers 'I, I'. 'Check' is the usual verb for forecasts.

× The effect of climate change, of course, it can make us get a sickness like a lot of, uh, pictures.

✓ The effect of climate change, of course, is that it can make us get sick in many ways.

Original sentence has a redundant subject ('the effect..., it') and 'get a sickness like a lot of pictures' is unclear. Use 'is that' to introduce a clause and 'get sick in many ways' to convey multiple health impacts. Remove filler 'uh' and unclear words.

× And then it's impact, it's have big impact for us.

✓ And it has had a big impact on us.

Use correct subject-verb agreement 'it has' and appropriate tense 'has had' or 'has' to indicate recent years. Use preposition 'on' not 'for': 'impact on us'. Remove redundant phrase 'it's impact'.

× Yeah, I think in Indonesia entire of the cities have same the same weather.

✓ Yeah, I think in Indonesia, most cities have the same weather.

'Entire of the cities' is incorrect; say 'most cities' or 'cities across Indonesia'. Use 'the same weather' (place 'the' before 'same weather' correctly). Add comma for clarity.

× So I think if I would like to have your experience, I would like to go overseas.

✓ So I think if I want to have that experience, I would like to go overseas.

In conditional sentences, the 'if' clause should use simple present ('if I want') rather than 'if I would'. Also 'your experience' is odd in this context; use 'that experience' to refer to experiencing different climates. The result clause 'I would like to go overseas' is correct to express desire.
