Views— Part 1 Report

Suggestion: Be more concise, avoid fillers (umm, uh) and redundant phrases, and use a clear topic sentence followed by one or two specific details with linking words. Maintain natural vocabulary but reduce repetition (e.g., 'I do like').

Example: Yes, I enjoy photographing different views, especially sunrises and sunsets because they create a peaceful atmosphere. For example, the warm colors and calm light at sunrise make me feel relaxed, and I often pause to capture that moment with my camera.

Suggestion: Give a clear direct answer, avoid vague or incorrect expressions, and provide one or two concrete reasons with a linking word. Correct grammar and use precise vocabulary (e.g., 'more spacious' instead of 'so wide'; clarify 'German areas' if intended).

Example: I prefer urban views because cityscapes offer interesting shapes and contrasts, especially at sunrise and sunset. For instance, the mix of buildings and sky creates striking silhouettes that make my photos more dramatic.

Suggestion: Answer directly and confidently; avoid self-deprecating or vague statements. Provide specific examples of what you want to photograph abroad and use correct grammar and linking words to explain reasons. Keep it within 2–3 sentences.

Example: I prefer photographing views in other countries because they offer a wider variety of landscapes. For example, I would love to capture snowy mountain ranges, wide rivers and different coastal sunrises that are rare in my home country.

× Yeah, I do like taking pictures of different views so much.

✓ Yes, I really like taking pictures of different views.

Use 'Yes' instead of informal 'Yeah' in a test; 'do like ... so much' is unnatural. The structure 'really like + verb-ing' is correct for expressing strong preference. Avoid redundant 'do' and 'so much' after 'do like'.

× Especially, umm, I do like taking pictures of sunrise and sunset.

✓ Especially, I like taking pictures of sunrises and sunsets.

Use plural 'sunrises and sunsets' when speaking generally. Remove redundant auxiliary 'do' before 'like'; simple 'I like taking pictures of...' is correct. Also remove filler 'umm' in formal responses.

× It makes me feel so nice and overwhelmed.

✓ It makes me feel very happy and peaceful.

'Nice' is vague and 'overwhelmed' often has negative connotations in English. Use adjectives that match intended positive emotion: 'very happy' and 'peaceful'. 'So' can be replaced by 'very' for tone in a test.

× I feel so good and there's a different kind of peace in my mind, uh, by taking these pictures of beautiful views to look on.

✓ I feel very good, and I have a different kind of peace in my mind when I take pictures of beautiful views.

Original sentence has awkward word order and unnecessary filler 'uh'. Use 'I have a different kind of peace in my mind' and 'when I take pictures' to express cause. Remove 'to look on' which is unneeded.

× I do prefer views in urban areas because in urban areas this place is so wide so we can take pictures more in a good way.

✓ I prefer views in urban areas because the space in cities is wide, so we can take better pictures.

Remove redundant 'do' in 'do prefer'. 'This place' is unclear; use 'the space in cities'. 'More in a good way' is ungrammatical—use 'better' to modify 'pictures'.

× Like the view is more prominent as I live in urban areas so the sunset and sunrise looks so nice and the pictures at that time in German areas looks.

✓ For example, the views are more prominent where I live in urban areas, so the sunrise and sunset look very nice and the pictures taken at that time look good.

Subject-verb agreement and pronoun/number issues: 'views' is plural so use 'are', and 'sunrise and sunset look' (plural subject) not 'looks'. 'The pictures at that time looks' should be 'the pictures taken at that time look'. Also 'German areas' seems incorrect if meant 'urban areas' or 'german' unclear; retained as 'where I live in urban areas'.

× Umm, to be honest, I will prefer, uh, to taking pictures of different views in other cities in other countries because, uh, in our country it's not have, like, it's not have very beautiful views.

✓ To be honest, I prefer taking pictures of different views in other cities and countries because in our country we do not have many beautiful views.

'Will prefer' is incorrect for a general preference; use present 'prefer'. Use correct verb pattern 'prefer taking' (not 'to taking'). 'It's not have' is ungrammatical; use 'we do not have'. Replace vague 'very' with 'many' to quantify 'beautiful views'. Remove filler 'umm' and 'uh'.

× Umm, I want to take pictures of different mountains, rivers, sun, sunrise, snowfall, and that's not very.

✓ I want to take pictures of mountains, rivers, the sun, sunrises, and snowfall, because we do not have those much here.

List items should be parallel and use articles where necessary ('the sun'). 'That's not very' is incomplete and unclear; clarify with 'we do not have those much here' or 'we don't get much snowfall here'. Ensure parallel structure in the list.
