Reading— Part 1 Informe

Sugerencia: Be more natural and concise. Start with a clear topic sentence, correct grammar (e.g., "I have them displayed"), avoid awkward phrases like "whenever I feel like I want to breathe," and add one specific supporting detail using a linking word. Keep to no more than 4–5 sentences.

Ejemplo: Yes, I love reading. I collect a lot of books and keep them displayed on my desk, so I can grab one easily. For example, when I have a short break from work, I usually read a chapter to relax.

Sugerencia: Improve grammatical accuracy and coherence. Use a clear topic sentence, link reasons with connecting words (e.g., "because", "so"), and correct verb forms and phrasing ("sit and relax", "lie down"). Limit to 3–4 sentences and give one specific example.

Ejemplo: I usually use both formats, but I prefer paper when I'm alert because I can sit comfortably and focus. However, if I'm tired and lying in bed, I read on my tablet because it is more convenient.

Sugerencia: Good content and clear reason, but improve natural phrasing and add one contrasting example using a linking word like "whereas" or "but". Make grammar consistent ("I pay extra attention" instead of "I would put"). Keep it concise.

Ejemplo: I read carefully when the information is important or errors could be serious, such as academic journals or official documents, so I pay extra attention to details. By contrast, I skim news articles or blog posts when I only need the main idea.

Sugerencia: Clarify and correct grammar ("more precise" → "more precise information"; "do scanning" → "scan"). Use linking words ("however" is fine) and provide a specific example of when you would scan. Keep within 3–4 sentences.

Ejemplo: I prefer detailed reading because it provides more precise and complete information, especially for studying. However, I scan headlines and summaries when I'm in a hurry, for example when I need to find a news update quickly.

× I collect many books.

✓ I collect many books.

No change needed; 'many books' correctly uses no article. Included for completeness.

× I have them display on my desk, so whenever I feel like I want to breathe, I just put one of them and read.

✓ I have them displayed on my desk, so whenever I feel like I want a break, I just pick one up and read.

The original uses 'have them display' which incorrectly employs an active verb form after 'have'. The correct causative passive construction is 'have them displayed' to indicate the books are placed on the desk. 'Breathe' is unnatural in this context; 'a break' is the intended noun. 'Put one of them and read' is ungrammatical; use 'pick one up and read'. Suggestion: use correct causative structures ('have + object + past participle') and choose appropriate noun phrases.

× I usually go both ways.

✓ I usually do both.

'Go both ways' is idiomatic but can be unclear here; 'do both' fits spoken English about preferring both formats. No tense change needed beyond choosing a more natural present-tense expression.

× If I have more energy than I would like to read on paper and sit relax on my chair.

✓ If I have more energy, I would like to read on paper and sit relaxed in my chair.

Original sentence misses punctuation and has verb form errors. 'Sit relax' is incorrect; use adjective 'relaxed' or gerund 'sitting relaxed'. Also add a comma after the conditional clause. Suggestion: use 'sit relaxed' or 'sit relaxed in my chair' and ensure clause boundaries are clear.

× But if I feel like I want to read but still want to lay down on the bed, I would read on screen.

✓ But if I feel like reading and still want to lie down on the bed, I would read on a screen.

After 'feel like' use the -ing form: 'feel like reading'. Also 'lay' (transitive) is incorrect for reclining; use 'lie down'. 'Read on screen' is acceptable but more natural as 'read on a screen'. Suggestion: use 'feel like + -ing' and correct verb 'lie' for intransitive action.

× I always read carefully when the information is important or mistakes could have serious consequences.

✓ I always read carefully when the information is important or when mistakes could have serious consequences.

Parallelism and clarity: add 'when' before the second clause to maintain parallel structure. Tense use is fine; this correction improves sentence flow.

× For example, like if I read journals or papers, I would put extra attention on it.

✓ For example, if I read journals or papers, I would pay extra attention to them.

'Put extra attention on it' is incorrect collocation. Use 'pay attention to' and 'extra attention to them' (plural) because 'journals or papers' is plural. Also remove redundant 'like'. Suggestion: use correct verb-preposition collocations and match pronoun number.

× I prefer detailed reading because it gives me more information and more precise.

✓ I prefer detailed reading because it gives me more information and is more precise.

Parallel structure and adjective use: 'more precise' needs a linking verb 'is' to compare properly. Maintain present tense. Suggestion: ensure comparative phrases include a verb when comparing qualities.

× However, I do scanning if I am in a rush and I need a quick information out of something that I read.

✓ However, I do scanning if I am in a rush and I need quick information from something I read.

'A quick information' is uncountable and should be 'quick information' without 'a'. 'Out of' is awkward here; use 'from'. Also 'that I read' can be shortened to 'I read'. Suggestion: treat 'information' as uncountable and use proper prepositions.
