Building— Part 1 Informe

Sugerencia: Start with a concise topic sentence directly answering the question, avoid slight redundancy, and keep sentences shorter. Add one specific detail (e.g., how many buildings or when they appeared) and use a linking word to show cause or result.

Ejemplo: Yes. In the past five years about six new high-rise apartment blocks have been built near my home, which shows the area is becoming more developed. As a result, there are more shops and buses now.

Sugerencia: Give a direct opening sentence, correct minor grammar errors, and avoid redundancy. Use one linking word to explain the condition when you take photos, and include a concrete example of a building or feature you like to photograph.

Ejemplo: Not usually. However, if I see a building with an unusual facade or bright colours, I will take a photo. For example, last month I photographed a renovated factory that had colourful murals and metal staircases.

Sugerencia: Answer directly and keep sentences natural; correct the incorrect word choice (“paranormal” → “panoramic”). Add a brief reason why you want to visit and one linking word to connect thoughts.

Ejemplo: Yes — the Burj Khalifa. I have seen many photos and videos, but seeing it in person would be different. In particular, I want to go to the observation deck to enjoy the panoramic view of Dubai and take photos.

Sugerencia: Begin with a clear topic sentence stating your preference, correct grammar (living, spectacular views, lifts), and use linking phrases (On the one hand… On the other hand…). Provide one specific example of a pro and a con to make your answer more concrete.

Ejemplo: I might try living in a tall building but I am unsure if it would suit me permanently. On the one hand, living high up would offer spectacular views and more privacy — for example, I could see the skyline from my balcony. On the other hand, relying on lifts and feeling isolated during power cuts would be inconvenient.

× if I happen to come across a building that has is particularly striking design, I will definitely take out my phone and snap a picture from me.

✓ if I happen to come across a building that has a particularly striking design, I will definitely take out my phone and snap a picture of it.

The original contains extra words and wrong forms: 'has is' is ungrammatical (redundant auxiliary) and 'striking design' needs an article 'a'. 'from me' is incorrect; use 'of it' to indicate taking a picture of the building. Suggestion: remove the extra verb, add the article before the noun, and use the correct prepositional phrase 'snap a picture of it'. Grammar problem type ID:10

× It really depend on whether the building stand out from the crowd.

✓ It really depends on whether the building stands out from the crowd.

Subject-verb agreement in present simple requires third-person singular verbs to take -s. 'depend' should be 'depends' and 'stand' should be 'stands'. Suggestion: add -s for third-person singular subjects ('it' and 'the building'). Grammar problem type ID:6

× I wouldn't say I'm not the kind of person who goes around photographing architecture, but if I happen to come across a building that has is particularly striking design, I will definitely take out my phone and snap a picture from me.

✓ I wouldn't say I'm the kind of person who goes around photographing architecture, but if I happen to come across a building that has a particularly striking design, I will definitely take out my phone and snap a picture of it.

The phrase 'I wouldn't say I'm not the kind of person' contains a double negative that changes the intended meaning; removing 'not' corrects it. Suggestion: use 'I wouldn't say I'm the kind of person' to mean you generally do not do that. Note: this correction overlaps with other fixes (removed 'not', fixed 'has is', added article and 'of it'). Grammar problem type ID:13

× More than anything, I would like to go up to the observation deck and take in the paranormal view.

✓ More than anything, I would like to go up to the observation deck and take in the panoramic view.

The word 'paranormal' (relating to supernatural phenomena) is incorrect in this context; the correct adjective is 'panoramic' (relating to a wide view). Suggestion: use 'panoramic view' when describing a wide, scenic view from a height. Grammar problem type ID:13

× leaving high up would give you a spectacular views and probably a greater sense of privacy.

✓ living high up would give you spectacular views and probably a greater sense of privacy.

Two issues: 'leaving' is a typo for 'living' given context; 'a spectacular views' mixes singular article 'a' with plural 'views'—remove 'a' before the plural noun. Suggestion: use 'living' and say 'spectacular views' without 'a'. Grammar problem type ID:22

× I'm not sure I would enjoy having to depend on lift every single day.

✓ I'm not sure I would enjoy having to depend on the lift every single day.

In British English, 'lift' (elevator) usually takes the definite article when referring to the building's elevator system: 'depend on the lift'. Alternatively, use the plural or a possessive ('depend on lifts' or 'depend on an elevator'). Suggestion: add 'the' or change noun form depending on intended meaning. Grammar problem type ID:17

× So I would probably try it, but I don't know whether I would want it to be a permanent.

✓ So I would probably try it, but I don't know whether I would want it to be permanent.

The noun 'permanent' is used incorrectly; the correct form is the adjective 'permanent' describing the situation. Do not add the indefinite article 'a' before 'permanent' unless using a noun phrase like 'a permanent arrangement'. Suggestion: remove 'a' to use the adjective correctly or rephrase to 'a permanent home'. Grammar problem type ID:26
