Travelling— Part 1 Report

Suggestion: Your answer is short and grammatical but slightly unnatural. Start with a clear topic sentence, then add one or two specific supporting details using linking words. Keep it within 3–4 sentences and avoid unnecessary words like “so.”

Example: Yes, I often look out of the window when I travel by bus or car. I enjoy watching the changing landscape, especially when passing through small villages or countryside. Sometimes I find it relaxing and it helps me to notice things I’d miss if I were focused on my phone.

Suggestion: The response is unclear and contains grammatical errors. Use a proper tense and combine ideas into a coherent sentence with linking words. Explain when or why you take photos to add detail.

Example: Yes, I often take photos of the scenery outside the car window, especially during long trips. For example, I like capturing sunrise views or interesting buildings because they remind me of the places I visited.

Suggestion: The answer is too short and ungrammatical. Give a full sentence stating your preference and support it with specific reasons or contrasts, using linking words like “because” or “because of.”

Example: I prefer the mountains because I enjoy hiking and the fresh air. In addition, the scenery feels peaceful and there are fewer crowds compared to the seaside.

× Yes, I do so.

✓ Yes, I do.

The student used an unnecessary adverb 'so' after the auxiliary 'do'. The question asks about a habitual action (present simple), so the correct short affirmative response is 'Yes, I do.' Suggestion: use 'Yes, I do' or 'Yes, I often do' if you want to emphasize frequency.

× Yes I was. Take photos and see outside.

✓ Yes, I do. I take photos and look outside.

The student replied with 'Yes I was' which wrongly uses past tense 'was' for a present habitual action; the question asks if they take photos (habitual present). Also 'see outside' is incorrect verb choice and form: use present simple 'look outside' for the habitual action. Suggestion: use present simple for habits: 'Yes, I do.' and 'I take photos and look outside.' Ensure verbs match subject and tense.

× I mountain.

✓ I prefer the mountains.

The student answered with a single noun 'I mountain' which lacks verb and uses a noun without correct form. The question asked for preference; the correct structure is 'I prefer the mountains' (present simple). Alternatively, 'I prefer the sea' if choosing sea. Suggestion: include the verb 'prefer' and use 'mountains' (plural) or 'the mountains' to indicate the general place.
