Travelling— Part 1 Report

Suggestion: Correct the vocabulary and grammar errors, make the response more coherent and concise, and add a linking phrase. Use one clear topic sentence, then one or two supporting details with specific examples. Avoid redundancy and keep it under five sentences.

Example: Yes, I definitely prefer a window seat because I enjoy looking at the scenery. For example, when I fly I like watching the coastline and mountains as we take off and land, and I often record these moments on my phone. This helps me remember the trip and relax during the journey.

Suggestion: Clarify meaning, correct grammar and word choice, and add a brief specific detail or feeling. Start with a direct topic sentence, then use one or two linked supporting details (time, purpose, feeling or result). Avoid unclear phrases like "good trouble" and provide coherent sequence using linking words.

Example: Yes, I once took a long bus trip to Ayacucho with my family that lasted about twelve hours. Because we traveled through the night, I remember being tired but also enjoying talking with my parents and looking out at the dark landscapes, which made the journey feel shorter.

× I prefer to be sad by the window because I really appreciate the landscapes.

✓ I prefer to be sat by the window because I really appreciate the landscapes.

The student used 'be sad' which is a wrong pronoun/word choice and changes meaning. The intended passive/position meaning is 'be sat' (colloquial) or better 'sit' — 'I prefer to sit by the window'. Use 'sit' for the action/position. Suggestion: replace 'be sad' with 'sit' to convey preference for seating location.

× Especially when I travel by airplane, I really like to record when the plane arrive and take off.

✓ Especially when I travel by airplane, I really like to record when the plane arrives and takes off.

The verbs 'arrive' and 'take off' refer to the plane (third person singular) in present simple. They must agree with the singular subject: add -s -> 'arrives' and 'takes off'. Also using 'record' is fine. Suggestion: use third-person singular form for verbs referring to 'plane'.

× Did you have a long journey with your family as a child?

✓ (No correction needed)

This examiner question is correct in tense and grammar; no student correction required. No action necessary.

× I remember once when we traveled to Ayacucho by bus, there were 12 hours approximately, but there was a good trouble because we went all night so we didn't take the time on count.

✓ I remember once when we traveled to Ayacucho by bus; it took approximately 12 hours, but it wasn’t a big problem because we traveled all night so we didn't keep track of the time.

Multiple issues: 'there were 12 hours approximately' is awkward — use 'it took approximately 12 hours' (correct subject and verb for duration). 'there was a good trouble' is incorrect collocation and adjective; correct is 'it wasn’t a big problem' (negative with 'problem'). 'we went all night' is acceptable but 'we traveled all night' is clearer. 'we didn't take the time on count' is unidiomatic; use 'we didn't keep track of the time'. Suggestions: express duration with 'it took', use appropriate collocations ('big problem'), and use idiomatic phrases for tracking time.
