Views— Part 1 Report

Suggestion: Your answer is generally clear and relevant, but it is slightly repetitive and a bit long. Start with a concise topic sentence, avoid repeating phrases (e.g., “I do like”), and use one or two specific supporting details. Add a linking phrase to connect the example smoothly. Also reduce length to within 3–4 sentences.

Example: Yes, I do. I enjoy photographing landscapes, especially when I ride a motorcycle through the mountains. For example, I often stop to photograph misty peaks and winding roads because the light and colors change quickly, so photos help me remember those moments.

Suggestion: The main idea is present but the answer is confusing and incomplete. Begin with a clear topic sentence stating your preference, then give one or two reasons with linking words (e.g., because, although). Avoid contradictions (saying you like urban living but preferring rural views) unless you explain why. Finish sentences fully and avoid vague words like “astounding” without context.

Example: Although I enjoy living in the city, I prefer rural views because they are quieter and more natural. For example, I like seeing open fields and forests, which help me relax, whereas cityscapes feel busy and crowded.

Suggestion: Your answer communicates pride in your country but has grammar and clarity issues. Start with a clear topic sentence (state preference), then give specific reasons with linking words. Correct plural and article errors (e.g., “scenery” not “sceneries”), and avoid awkward phrasing (“richer for instance”). Be concise and provide one concrete example.

Example: I prefer the views in my own country. The Philippines has diverse scenery — from white-sand beaches to volcanic mountains and waterfalls — so I can find many beautiful places without travelling abroad.

× For example, when I go to a motorcycle ride and I pass by mountains and other types of nature, I love the amazing view I witness and I do take pictures of them as a cherished memory to keep.

✓ For example, when I go on a motorcycle ride and pass by mountains and other natural scenery, I love the amazing views I see and I take pictures of them as cherished memories to keep.

Incorrect use of preposition 'to' with 'ride' and awkward noun forms: 'go to a motorcycle ride' should be 'go on a motorcycle ride' (preposition error). 'Other types of nature' is better expressed as 'other natural scenery'. 'The amazing view I witness' mixes register; use 'views I see'. 'Do take' is unnecessary for simple present emphasis; use 'take'. Also pluralize 'memory' to 'memories' to match plural 'pictures'. Suggestions: use 'go on', replace 'types of nature' with 'natural scenery', use simple present for habitual actions and match plurals.

× As someone who is really fond of living in urban areas, I must say that I like views or sceneries in the countryside or rural areas.

✓ Although I am fond of living in urban areas, I must say that I like views or scenery in the countryside or rural areas.

The original sentence starts with a participial phrase 'As someone who is...', which can be acceptable but causes a slight mismatch with the main clause. 'Sceneries' is nonstandard; 'scenery' is uncountable. Better to contrast with 'although' to show preference despite living in cities. Suggestions: use 'Although I am fond of...' and use 'scenery' (uncountable) or 'scenic views'.

× But of course I also like urban areas such as going to the buildings, astounding buildings and malls but I prefer the.

✓ But of course I also like urban areas, such as visiting impressive buildings and malls, but I prefer the countryside.

Sentence is incomplete and awkward. 'Going to the buildings' should be 'visiting impressive buildings'. 'Astounding buildings' is unusual; 'impressive' or 'remarkable' fits better. The sentence ends with 'but I prefer the.' which is incomplete — clarify what is preferred (the countryside). Suggestions: complete the contrast and use verbs like 'visiting' and adjectives like 'impressive'.

× I believe that the Philippines is a rich and beautiful sceneries and this is amazing for a fact that I do appreciate the Philippines for this.

✓ I believe that the Philippines is rich and beautiful scenery, and I truly appreciate it for that.

'The Philippines is a rich and beautiful sceneries' mixes singular 'is' with plural 'sceneries' and misuses 'sceneries'. Use 'scenery' (uncountable) or 'a country with rich and beautiful scenery'. 'This is amazing for a fact that I do appreciate the Philippines for this' is wordy and ungrammatical. Simplify to 'I truly appreciate it for that.' Suggestions: avoid redundant phrases, use 'scenery' and concise appreciation expressions.

× While I appreciate other countries, I still believe that the Philippines is a richer for instance, having beaches and mountains as long as the waterfalls.

✓ While I appreciate other countries, I still believe that the Philippines is richer, for instance, because it has beaches, mountains, and waterfalls.

'Is a richer' is incorrect — 'richer' needs a comparison object or 'is richer than other countries'. The phrase 'as long as the waterfalls' is wrong; use 'and waterfalls' or 'as well as waterfalls'. Also clarify comparison by adding 'than other countries' or rephrase to 'is richer in natural attractions'. Suggestions: use proper comparative structure ('richer than...') or say 'richer in natural attractions' and list features with 'and' or 'as well as'.
