Travelling— Part 1 Informe

Sugerencia: This is a clear and natural answer with a direct preference, a reason, and an example. To improve it, replace “Shinji landscape” with a more natural phrase such as “the beautiful scenery” or “the countryside.” You could also use a linking expression such as “In particular” to connect your example more smoothly.

Ejemplo: Yes, I prefer to sit by the window when I travel because I enjoy watching the scenery and it helps me relax. In particular, on long bus or train journeys, I like looking at the beautiful countryside and the small towns along the way.

Sugerencia: Answer the question directly by saying whether you had a long family journey or not. Use the past tense consistently: “I never went,” “they didn’t have,” and “they worked.” Replace “go outside” and “bring me outside” with “take trips” or “travel.” Also, explain the situation more clearly and use a linking word before mentioning video games, for example, “As a result” or “Instead.”

Ejemplo: No, I didn’t have many long journeys with my family when I was a child. My parents were very busy because they worked from Monday to Sunday, so they rarely had time to take me on trips. As a result, I usually stayed at home and played video games in my free time.

× To be honest, I never go outside with my parents because they didn't have more time to bring me outside.

✓ To be honest, I never went out with my parents because they didn't have enough time to take me out.

The question asks about your childhood, so the answer should use the past tense. Change go to went. Also, went out and take me out are more natural expressions for spending time outside with someone. Use enough time instead of more time when you mean that they did not have sufficient time.

× They always worked along the way start on Monday and end on Sunday.

✓ They always worked all week, starting on Monday and ending on Sunday.

After the main clause, starting and ending describe when and how their work continued, so the verbs should use the -ing form. The phrase worked all week is also more natural than worked along the way in this context.

× The only thing that makes me relaxed is video games.

✓ The only thing that made me relax was playing video games.

Because you are describing your childhood, use the past-tense forms made and was instead of makes and is. The phrase made me relax is more natural than makes me relaxed, and playing video games clearly identifies the activity.
