Building— Part 1 Report

Suggestion: Be more direct and concise. Start with a clear topic sentence, correct grammar (singular/plural, tenses), and add one specific supporting detail using a linking word. Avoid redundancy.

Example: No, there aren't any tall buildings near my home. I live in a rural area where most houses are single-storey, so the skyline is mostly low; for example, the nearest city with high-rises is about 40 minutes away by car.

Suggestion: Give a clear topic sentence and provide one concise reason with an example. Use linking words to avoid repetition and correct singular/plural forms.

Example: No, I rarely photograph buildings because I prefer nature photography. For instance, I usually take pictures of sunsets and flowers when I visit parks, so buildings simply don't interest me.

Suggestion: Be specific and natural. Start with a clear statement naming the place, then give one or two specific reasons and a plan using linking words. Avoid filler words like 'maybe'.

Example: Yes, I'd like to visit a new bakery near my town called 'Sunrise Bakery'. My friends and I plan to go next weekend because I've heard they make traditional sourdough, and I'm curious to try their signature bread.

Suggestion: Answer directly and use correct phrasing. Give one clear reason and an explanation with linking words; correct vocabulary (e.g. 'high-rise buildings', 'evacuate') and avoid repetition.

Example: No, I wouldn't like to live in a high-rise building because Japan has frequent earthquakes. For example, during a quake it's harder to evacuate quickly from upper floors, so I prefer a low-rise house for safety.

× I live in rural areas and there were little houses here and I can see the places that it's located far from.

✓ I live in a rural area, and there are small houses here, and I can see that the place is located far away.

Errors: 'rural areas' should be 'a rural area' to match singular context; 'there were little houses' uses past tense and 'little' is incorrect adjective for countable nouns — use 'small houses' and present tense 'are' to match 'I live'. 'the places that it's located far from' is ungrammatical; use 'I can see that the place is located far away.' Suggestion: keep consistent number (singular/plural) and tense, use 'a' before singular nouns, use 'small' for countable nouns, and use 'far away' for location.

× I don't take pictures of building because I like taking photos of the nature, like skies or flowers.

✓ I don't take pictures of buildings because I like taking photos of nature, like the sky or flowers.

Errors: 'building' should be plural 'buildings' when speaking generally. 'the nature' is incorrect; 'nature' is uncountable and does not need 'the'. 'skies' is unusual here; use 'the sky' to refer generally. Suggestion: use correct plural for general statements and use uncountable nouns without 'the' unless specific.

× But I don't actually take pictures of buildings because it's not exciting for me.

✓ But I don't actually take pictures of buildings because they are not exciting to me.

Errors: 'it's not exciting for me' uses singular 'it' while referring to 'pictures of buildings' (plural). Also 'exciting to me' is more natural. Suggestion: ensure pronoun agrees with referenced noun and use natural collocations.

× Yes, there is a building that I want to visit. It's a new bakery and my friends and I want to go there to try some bread in the future and we are planning to go maybe next week.

✓ Yes, there is a building I want to visit. It's a new bakery, and my friends and I want to go there to try some bread; we are planning to go next week.

Errors: sentence mostly correct but could be tightened. 'there is a building that I want' -> 'a building I want' is more natural. Remove unnecessary 'maybe' because 'planning' implies intention; if uncertainty needed, keep 'maybe'. Suggestion: simplify relative clause and punctuation for clarity.

× No, I don't want to live at store buildings because there are many earthquakes in Japan and I feel it's little scary for me to live in tall buildings because when it happens it's difficult to down the stairs.

✓ No, I don't want to live in shop buildings because there are many earthquakes in Japan, and I find it a little scary to live in tall buildings because when an earthquake happens it's difficult to go down the stairs.

Errors: 'live at store buildings' uses wrong preposition and awkward noun; 'in' is correct and 'shop buildings' or 'commercial buildings' is clearer. 'feel it's little scary for me' should be 'find it a little scary'. 'when it happens it's difficult to down the stairs' is ungrammatical; use 'when an earthquake happens it's difficult to go down the stairs.' Suggestion: use correct prepositions, natural verbs ('find'), include articles ('a little scary'), and correct verb phrases ('go down the stairs').
