Views— Part 1 Report

Suggestion: Be more concise and natural: start with a clear topic sentence, avoid repetition, correct minor grammar and use linking words if adding details. For example, say you enjoy photographing landscapes and explain why with one supporting reason. Remove stray words like “Activity.”

Example: Yes, I enjoy taking photos of different views, especially when I travel to scenic places. For instance, I love photographing sunsets and wide landscapes because capturing colours and light makes me feel relaxed and helps me remember the trip.

Suggestion: Improve grammar and coherence: use correct prepositions and comparative structure, include a clear topic sentence and one or two linked supporting details using linking words (for example, because, so). Be specific about what you like in rural views.

Example: I prefer rural views to urban ones because I enjoy green spaces and fresh air. For example, walking through fields or forests is relaxing and reduces stress, and I also like driving along quiet country roads to enjoy the scenery.

Suggestion: Make the answer more concise and precise: begin with a direct statement, avoid repetition (e.g., ‘hundreds or maybe thousands’), and add a linking word to introduce the supporting reason or example. Mention one specific place or memory to add authenticity.

Example: I prefer views in my own country because we have many beautiful beaches and mountains. For example, I often hiked in the nearby mountain ranges before the pandemic, and those coastal and mountain views are unique and memorable to me.

× Yes, when I'm travelling, specially to some scenic places, I really love to take pictures of the landscape, take pictures of the sunset. It's really fun and relaxing. Activity.

✓ Yes, when I'm travelling, especially to scenic places, I really love to take pictures of landscapes and sunsets. It's really fun and relaxing.

The word 'specially' is incorrect in this context; 'especially' should be used to mean 'particularly'. 'Some scenic places' is acceptable but 'to scenic places' sounds more natural. Repeated 'take pictures of' is redundant; combine items with 'and'. Use plural 'landscapes' and 'sunsets' to match general activities. The stray word 'Activity.' is extraneous and was removed. Suggestion: use 'especially' for emphasis and avoid repetition by grouping similar objects.

× I prefer views on rural areas than urban areas.

✓ I prefer views in rural areas to those in urban areas.

Use 'in' with 'areas' rather than 'on'. When comparing preferences, use 'prefer X to Y'. Also make comparison clear by adding 'those' to refer to 'views' in urban areas. Suggestion: use 'prefer ... in ... to ...' and 'in' for locations.

× It's because I love to see green spaces and it's so easy on the eyes and relieves your stress temporarily.

✓ It's because I love to see green spaces; they are easy on the eyes and relieve stress temporarily.

The sentence mixes singular 'it's' with plural 'green spaces'. Replace 'it's' with 'they are' to agree with the plural noun. Use 'relieve' (plural subject) rather than 'relieves'. Remove 'your' to keep the statement general or keep 'your' if addressing listener directly; here general 'stress' is clearer. Suggestion: ensure pronouns agree in number with their antecedents and keep perspective consistent.

× Also love walking into green spaces, catching some air while you walk or drive around them.

✓ I also love walking in green spaces and getting some fresh air while I walk or drive around them.

The original lacks a subject ('I') at the start and uses 'walking into' which implies entering rather than being in; 'walking in' is more natural. 'Catching some air' is colloquial; 'getting some fresh air' is clearer. Maintain consistent subjects ('I' and 'I') and parallel structure with 'walking' and 'getting'. Suggestion: include the subject and keep parallel verb forms.

× I prefer the sceneries in my own country because there's a lot of beaches and beautiful mountains here.

✓ I prefer the scenery in my own country because there are a lot of beaches and beautiful mountains here.

'Scenery' is an uncountable noun and should not be pluralized as 'sceneries' in this context. Use 'there are' for plural 'beaches and mountains' rather than 'there's' (there is). Suggestion: use uncountable 'scenery' for general landscapes and ensure subject-verb agreement with 'there are' for plural items.

× We are home of hundreds or maybe thousands of mountains here.

✓ We are home to hundreds, or maybe thousands, of mountains here.

Use the idiomatic phrase 'home to' rather than 'home of'. Add commas for readability around 'or maybe thousands'. This keeps the plural noun 'mountains' correct. Suggestion: use fixed expressions like 'home to' and punctuate large-number approximations.

× I used to hike them before the pandemic happened.

✓ I used to hike them before the pandemic.

'Used to' already indicates a past habit; adding 'happened' is unnecessary. 'Before the pandemic' suffices and sounds more natural. Suggestion: when using 'used to', omit redundant past markers like 'happened'. Alternatively, 'before the pandemic occurred' is acceptable but verbose.
