Tidiness— Part 1 Informe

Sugerencia: Be more natural and precise. Start with a clear topic sentence, avoid simple negatives like "I don't like dirty," and reduce repetition. Use linking words to add one or two specific details (how often, what you clean, and why). Keep it within 3–4 sentences.

Ejemplo: Yes, I do. I prefer to keep my living space tidy because a clean environment helps me concentrate. For example, I usually tidy my desk and sweep the floor every weekend, and I feel more relaxed and productive afterwards.

Sugerencia: Correct grammar and make the answer concise. Use past tense correctly and give a brief reason with one supporting detail. Avoid awkward phrasing like "I wasn't kept my room tidy."

Ejemplo: Not really. When I was a child I rarely tidied my room because my mother usually cleaned for me, so I didn’t need to take responsibility for it.

Sugerencia: Improve grammar and clarity. Begin with a clear sentence about your routine, use linking words (for example, before/after), and give specific frequency and actions. Keep it under 4 sentences.

Ejemplo: I keep my study space tidy by cleaning my locker once a week and clearing my desk before I start revising. For instance, I put away loose papers, organize my stationery, and wipe the surface so I can focus better.

Sugerencia: State your opinion clearly and give two coherent reasons with examples. Fix unclear sentence endings and avoid repetition. Use linking words like "because" and "for example."

Ejemplo: Yes, I believe being tidy is important because it teaches responsibility and helps prevent loss or damage to belongings. For example, when everything has its place I spend less time looking for things and my home feels more pleasant.

× For me, I like to keep things tidy because I don't like dirty.

✓ For me, I like to keep things tidy because I don't like things being dirty.

The adjective 'dirty' cannot directly follow 'like' in this context. Use a noun phrase or a gerund clause to describe the state: 'things being dirty' clarifies what is disliked. This fixes incorrect adjective use and makes the sentence natural.

× When I have a holiday, I will clean my desk and swipe the floor.

✓ When I have a holiday, I clean my desk and sweep the floor.

In habitual or regular actions after time expressions like 'when I have a holiday', the present simple is preferred rather than 'will'. Also 'swipe the floor' is a wrong verb collocation; use 'sweep the floor'. Use present simple for repeated actions.

× I would say I wasn't kept my room tidy as a child because I'm too young and my mum, she will help me clean everything.

✓ I would say I didn't keep my room tidy as a child because I was too young and my mum helped me clean everything.

'Wasn't kept my room tidy' is ungrammatical. Use simple past 'didn't keep' for habitual past behavior. Also 'I'm too young' must be past 'I was too young'. 'She will help' should be past 'helped' to match past timeframe.

× So I didn't keep my room tidy as a child.

✓ So I didn't keep my room tidy as a child.

This sentence is already correct after fixing the previous clause. It uses simple past to describe a past habitual state; no change needed.

× For me, when I'm working I will clean my locker, make it be more tidy one time as a week and when I'm studying before I have a revision I will clean my desk and make.

✓ For me, when I'm working I clean my locker and make it tidier once a week, and when I'm studying before a revision I clean my desk.

Multiple issues: 'will' is inappropriate for habitual actions; use present simple 'clean'. 'Make it be more tidy' is unidiomatic — use 'make it tidier'. 'One time as a week' should be 'once a week'. The trailing 'and make' is incomplete; remove it. Also use 'before a revision' to indicate preparation.

× For me, I think it is necessary to be tidy because it can train my responsibility and I think if I keep my home tidy that will not that the most will disappear.

✓ For me, I think it is necessary to be tidy because it can train my sense of responsibility, and if I keep my home tidy, most problems will not occur.

Several errors: 'train my responsibility' is awkward — use 'train my sense of responsibility'. The latter clause is unclear and ungrammatical: 'that will not that the most will disappear' makes no sense. Clarify intended meaning: likely 'most problems will not occur' or 'most mess will disappear'. Use present simple for general truths and reorder for clarity.
