Reading— Part 1 Report

Suggestion: Be more concise and correct small grammar errors. Start with a clear topic sentence, then give one or two specific reasons with linking words. Avoid redundancy (e.g., “this nowadays”, “actually” used twice). Use correct verb forms and plural/singular agreement.

Example: Yes, I enjoy reading, but recently I prefer audiobooks. For example, I listen to them while commuting and doing chores, which saves time and helps me focus on the story. Because of this convenience, audiobooks have become my main way of enjoying books.

Suggestion: Answer directly with a clear preference or explain why you have no strong preference. Fix phrasing and clarity issues (e.g., “A1” unclear, “any of both” -> “either”). Use linking words like “however” correctly and limit to 3–4 sentences.

Example: I don’t have a strong preference; I read on both paper and screens. However, I find screens more convenient at night because I can adjust the backlight and read without turning on room lights. For daytime reading I sometimes prefer paper because it feels more comfortable.

Suggestion: Begin with a clear topic sentence answering both parts. Correct grammar (singular/plural agreement, articles) and use linking words like “when” and “whereas”. Provide one specific example of condensed material vs filler to make it concrete.

Example: I need to read carefully when the material is dense and every detail matters, such as instructions, technical articles, or exam summaries. In contrast, I skim when a book contains many fillers or repeated passages, for example a long self-help book with repetitive advice, because skimming saves time.

Suggestion: Give a clear opening sentence stating you use both and then contrast with linking words (“for example”, “whereas”). Fix grammar and streamline sentences to avoid repetition. Provide one clear scenario for each strategy.

Example: I use both scanning and detailed reading depending on my goal. For example, I read in detail when studying for exams or when a text contains important facts, whereas I scan summaries or books with repetitive content to find key points quickly.

× Yes, I do like reading, however I'm not into reading from a book in this nowadays.

✓ Yes, I do like reading; however, I'm not into reading from a book nowadays.

Incorrect use of 'in this nowadays' and punctuation. 'Nowadays' is sufficient without 'in this'. Use a semicolon or period before 'however' and add a comma after 'however'. Suggestion: write 'I'm not into reading from a book nowadays.'

× I just love to listen to audiobooks as I can actually listen to them while commuting or while doing our task.

✓ I just love listening to audiobooks because I can listen to them while commuting or while doing my tasks.

Use gerund 'listening' after 'love' (verb + -ing). 'Because' is more natural than 'as' here. 'Our task' is incorrect pronoun/number/word choice; use 'my tasks' or 'tasks' to match speaker. Suggestion: use gerund and correct pronoun.

× So it saves time and it actually make you live inside the book and it feels good to be hearing the words.

✓ So it saves time, it actually makes you feel inside the book, and it feels good to hear the words.

Subject-verb agreement requires 'makes' (third person singular) not 'make'. Use 'feel' instead of 'live inside' for natural phrasing; 'to be hearing' is awkward — use infinitive 'to hear' or simple 'hear'. Also add commas for clarity.

× I don't prefer A1 over the other.

✓ I don't prefer one over the other.

'A1' is likely a typo; use 'one' to refer to options. Article error and wrong token. Suggestion: say 'I don't prefer one over the other.'

× I can do with any of both.

✓ I can do with either of them.

'Any of both' is incorrect. Use 'either of them' for two options, or 'either' alone. Suggestion: 'I can do with either.'

× However at night time reading from screen can be more convenient as you can actually turn off all the light and so you can read however in books or in paper if you have to turn all the lights on in order to be able to see what you're reading.

✓ However, at night reading from a screen can be more convenient because you can turn off most of the lights, whereas with books or paper you may have to turn the lights on to see what you're reading.

Several issues: missing commas, 'at night time' -> 'at night', missing article 'a' before 'screen', 'turn off all the light' should be 'turn off most of the lights' or 'the lights', incorrect conjunction 'however' mid-sentence should be 'whereas' or 'while', 'in books or in paper' -> 'with books or on paper'. Suggestion: simplify and use correct prepositions and articles.

× I have to read carefully when the information are so condensed and every info is important.

✓ I have to read carefully when the information is so condensed and every piece of information is important.

'Information' is uncountable and takes singular verb 'is' not 'are'. 'Info' is informal; use 'piece of information' or 'information' with 'every' requires countable noun; use 'every piece of information'. Suggestion: use correct subject-verb agreement and noun form.

× Or when I read a summary of a book and I don't have to read carefully when the book has a lot of fillers, a lot a lot of repeated information.

✓ Or when I read a summary of a book. I don't have to read carefully when a book has a lot of fillers and a lot of repeated information.

Run-on and repetitive phrasing. Sentence started with 'Or' and mixed clauses. Break into two sentences and remove duplicate 'a lot'. Suggestion: use clear sentence boundaries and avoid repetition.

× That way I can skim through all these input to save time.

✓ That way I can skim through this material to save time.

'Input' is uncountable and awkward here; 'material' or 'the content' is better. 'All these' doesn't fit with 'input'. Suggestion: use 'this material' or 'these inputs' if plural countable items.

× I don't prefer one thing over the other. It depends on the book I'm reading.

✓ I don't prefer one thing over the other; it depends on the book I'm reading.

Grammar is acceptable but a semicolon or conjunction improves cohesion. This is a style suggestion rather than required grammatical fix.

× If I'm using a summary that when I need to detailed reading or when I'm reading a book that has a lot of fillers, a lot of repeated information that that's when I scan through these paragraphs.

✓ If I'm using a summary when I need detailed reading, or if I'm reading a book that has a lot of fillers and repeated information, that's when I scan through those paragraphs.

Sentence has extra words ('that when'), wrong noun forms ('detailed reading' should be 'detailed reading' without 'to'), and redundant phrases. Use 'if' consistently and simplify. Change 'these' to 'those' to refer back. Suggestion: simplify clause structure and remove redundancies.

× So it's not a way over the other.

✓ So it's not one way over the other.

Incorrect phrase 'not a way over the other' should be 'not one way over the other' meaning neither option is better. Suggestion: use idiomatic expression 'not one way or the other' or 'not one over the other'.
