Parks— Part 1 Report

Suggestion: Give a direct answer and add a brief specific detail or memory. Use one topic sentence then one supporting detail. Avoid repeating the examiner's question.

Example: Yes, I loved going to parks as a child. For example, I used to spend every weekend at the local park playing on the swings and having picnics with my family, which made those days feel special.

Suggestion: Expand the reply with a reason and a brief example to make it more informative. Use a linking word to connect ideas (e.g., because, so, and). Keep it to two or three short sentences.

Example: Yes, I still enjoy going to parks because they help me relax and exercise. For instance, I often walk there in the mornings to clear my head and do light jogging.

Suggestion: Explain why you want more parks and give a specific benefit or comparison. Use a linking word to show reason or consequence. Be concise and concrete.

Example: Yes, I would like more parks in my city because many neighborhoods lack green spaces. More parks would provide places for children to play and for residents to exercise, improving community health.

Suggestion: Answer directly and then offer a brief explanation or a conditional plan. Use clear language rather than filler (e.g., 'Umm'). If you truly have no plans, explain why or mention what might change that in the future.

Example: I don't have specific plans to visit any park at the moment because I'm busy with work, but I might visit a new botanical garden if I get more free time next year.

× Yes, I like to go to parks.

✓ Yes, I like going to parks.

The examiner asked about a general habit (Do you still like going to parks now?). Using the gerund 'going' fits the noun-like object after 'like' to describe an activity/habit. 'Like to go' is not strictly wrong, but 'like going' is more natural here for ongoing preference. Suggestion: use 'like + -ing' to describe general preferences or habitual activities.

× Umm, there's no plan for me to go to any park in my future.

✓ Umm, I don't have any plans to go to a park in the future.

The original uses awkward phrasing 'there's no plan for me' and 'in my future' which is non-native. The corrected sentence uses a clear subject-verb structure 'I don't have any plans' and the idiomatic phrase 'in the future'. This fixes sentence structure and article use ('a park' instead of 'any park' after 'plans to go to'). Suggestion: use 'I don't have any plans to...' for personal future intentions and 'in the future' for time reference.
