Views— Part 1 Report

Suggestion: Your answer is clear and natural, but slightly wordy and has minor grammar issues. Begin with a direct topic sentence, then add one concise supporting detail using a linking word. Avoid phrases like “capture it within my mind” which sound awkward; use “keep it in my memory” instead. Also correct minor grammar: say “I prefer to enjoy the scenery with my own eyes” or simply “I prefer to enjoy the scenery in person.”

Example: I don’t usually take photos of views; I prefer to enjoy the scenery in person. For example, when I visit a park I focus on the sounds and colours so the memory stays with me, although I might take a photo if it’s a special moment.

Suggestion: Good direct response and relevant supporting details. Improve coherence by using a linking phrase and more natural vocabulary (e.g., “lush greenery” instead of “greens flourishing”). Make sentences slightly more varied and correct small phrasing issues like “the atmosphere itself” → “the peaceful atmosphere.”

Example: I prefer rural views to urban ones because I enjoy lush greenery and flowing rivers. For instance, the peaceful atmosphere and natural sounds help me relax after a busy week.

Suggestion: Your basic idea is fine but the answer is vague and contains awkward phrasing. Start with a clear topic sentence, then give one specific reason for each option using linking words (e.g., “On the one hand… On the other hand…”). Avoid unclear phrases like “that Japan doesn't have within the world”; instead say “that I can’t see in Japan.”

Example: I like views in both my country and abroad. On the one hand, Japan has familiar landscapes that feel comforting; on the other hand, travelling abroad lets me see unique scenery I can’t find in Japan, such as desert vistas or tropical coastlines.

× No, I just prefer to enjoy the scenery by watching with my own eyes.

✓ No, I just prefer enjoying the scenery with my own eyes.

The verb 'prefer' is commonly followed by a gerund when expressing a general preference (prefer doing something). Using 'to enjoy' is not incorrect, but pairing 'prefer to enjoy the scenery by watching with my own eyes' is wordy; also 'by watching with my own eyes' is awkward. Using the gerund 'enjoying' and simplifying to 'with my own eyes' makes the sentence more natural. Suggestion: use 'prefer enjoying' or 'prefer to enjoy' but keep structure concise.'

× I like to see some moments and capture it within my mind, although I sometimes take pictures.

✓ I like to see moments and capture them in my mind, although I sometimes take pictures.

The pronoun 'it' is singular while 'moments' is plural: use 'them' to match plural antecedent (pronoun agreement - falls under incorrect pronoun use but corrected by plural agreement). 'Capture it within my mind' is also awkward; 'capture them in my mind' is idiomatic. Suggestion: ensure pronouns match the number of their antecedents and use natural prepositions like 'in my mind'. Note: correction limited to listed grammar types (past participle category used here to indicate verb form/participle context).'

× I prefer rural areas instead of urban areas.

✓ I prefer rural areas to urban areas.

When expressing a preference between two things, the correct preposition is 'to' rather than 'instead of'. 'Instead of' implies replacement rather than preference. This is primarily a preposition/phrase usage; it also affects sentence naturalness. Suggestion: use 'prefer A to B' for comparisons of preference.'

× I like the nature with greens flourishing and rivers flowing.

✓ I like nature, with green vegetation flourishing and rivers flowing.

'The nature' is unidiomatic in English; use 'nature' without 'the'. 'Greens' is informal/unclear; 'green vegetation' or simply 'greenery' is better. Also add a comma to separate clauses. Suggestion: use 'nature' and more precise nouns like 'greenery' or 'vegetation'.'

× I like the sound and the atmosphere itself.

✓ I like the sounds and the atmosphere itself.

If referring to multiple sound elements in nature, plural 'sounds' is more natural. However, if meaning the general soundscape, 'the sound' can be acceptable; choose consistency. Also 'itself' is redundant but can be kept for emphasis. Suggestion: use 'the sounds and the atmosphere' or 'the sound and the atmosphere' depending on intended meaning.'

× I like both of them.

✓ I like both.

When answering the question about two options, saying 'I like both' is more natural than 'I like both of them' in this context; both are acceptable but 'both' is concise. This is a minor article/pronoun choice issue. Suggestion: prefer concise responses and avoid unnecessary pronouns.'

× Both have different benefits.

✓ Both have different benefits.

This sentence is grammatically correct but slightly unnatural; 'Both have different advantages' or 'Both have their own benefits' is more idiomatic. As the original is acceptable, no grammatical change required. Suggestion: use 'their own benefits' for clarity.'

× I like watching great sceneries that Japan doesn't have within the world.

✓ I like seeing beautiful landscapes that Japan doesn't have.

'Sceneries' is nonstandard; use 'scenery' (uncountable) or 'landscapes'. The phrase 'within the world' is awkward and unnecessary; 'in the world' could be used but here 'that Japan doesn't have' suffices. The corrected sentence improves word choice and natural word order. Suggestion: use 'scenery' or 'landscapes' and avoid redundant phrases like 'within the world'.'
