Travelling— Part 1 Report

Suggestion: Answer the question directly and avoid repeating “while” and using fillers such as “like.” The phrase “having fun having something to look at” is unnatural; use “enjoying the view” instead. Add one specific reason or example, such as watching the scenery during takeoff. A clearer structure would be: preference + reason + brief supporting detail.

Example: Yes, I prefer sitting by the window when I travel because I enjoy looking at the scenery during takeoff and landing. It also makes the journey more interesting, especially when I am flying over mountains or the coastline.

Suggestion: The answer is relevant and includes specific information, but it contains several repetitions, hesitations, and grammar errors. Say “It was a fourteen-hour flight,” not “a fourteen hours flight,” and use the past tense consistently: “It was relaxing” and “I had a lot of fun.” Avoid repeating “very” and “relaxing”; instead, connect your ideas with “although” or “because” and explain why the journey was memorable.

Example: Yes, I had a long journey with my family when I was a child. We flew from Egypt to the United States, and the flight took about fourteen hours. I was quite tired, so I slept for most of the journey, but I still enjoyed it because it was my first time visiting America.

× Yeah, I prefer sitting next to the window while travelling to look at the view while the airplane's taking off and having fun having like something to look at.

✓ Yeah, I prefer sitting next to the window while travelling so I can look at the view while the airplane is taking off and have something interesting to look at.

The original sentence contains an unclear and repetitive structure, especially in having fun having like something to look at. Use so I can to show the purpose of sitting by the window, and coordinate the verbs look and have clearly.

× It's a fourteen hours flight.

✓ It was a fourteen-hour flight.

When a number and a noun work together as an adjective before another noun, the unit noun must be singular. Therefore, use fourteen-hour, not fourteen hours. The noun flight is singular, so the sentence is a fourteen-hour flight.

× It's a fourteen hours flight.

✓ It was a fourteen-hour flight.

The question asks about a journey in the past, so the verb should also be in the past tense. Use was instead of is. The sentence also requires the compound adjective fourteen-hour.

× It was very, very I was very tired and I slept a lot in the airplane, but it was a relaxing time.

✓ I was very tired, so I slept a lot on the airplane, but I still had a relaxing time.

The original sentence repeats the subject and verb in It was very, very I was very tired, which creates an incomplete and confusing structure. Start directly with I was very tired and use so to show the relationship between being tired and sleeping.

× It was it was relaxing and I had fun a lot.

✓ It was relaxing, and I had a lot of fun.

The correct quantifier expression is a lot of fun, not fun a lot. Also, the repeated phrase It was should be stated only once.
