Hobby— Part 1 Relatório

Sugestão: Answer the question directly and avoid saying both “many hobbies” and listing several activities without explaining them. Use natural expressions such as “In the evening” and “play soccer,” rather than “in evening” and “go to play soccer.” Add a clear reason or personal detail, and use linking words such as “also” or “because” to connect your ideas.

Exemplo: Yes, I do. I enjoy reading, solving puzzles, and playing soccer with my friends. I usually read in the morning, while I play soccer in the evening to stay active and relax after a busy day.

Sugestão: Use the natural structure “My main hobby was solving puzzles” instead of “I had hobbies as solving a puzzle to be my main activity.” Since this is a short Part 1 answer, add one specific detail, such as what you liked about the hobby or when you did it. Use the plural “puzzles” when speaking about the activity in general.

Exemplo: Yes, I did. My main hobby was solving puzzles, especially jigsaw puzzles. I enjoyed them because they were challenging, and I often worked on them at the weekend.

Sugestão: The main idea is clear, but improve the grammar and collocations: say “I’ve continued solving puzzles,” “including at weekends,” “relaxes me,” and “during a demanding week.” Avoid fillers such as “you know” and replace “It’s very fun” with “It’s enjoyable.” Organize the answer with a direct statement followed by a reason.

Exemplo: Yes, I do. I’ve continued solving puzzles since childhood, usually after work or at weekends. I find them enjoyable because they help me relax and take my mind off the demands of my job.

Sugestão: Your response answers the question, but it needs a more natural phrase and a supporting example. Say “different kinds of interests” or “different hobbies,” not “different kind of activities.” Add a brief comparison to show what you and your family members enjoy, and use a linking word such as “for example.”

Exemplo: To be honest, we don’t have exactly the same hobbies because we have different interests. For example, I enjoy solving puzzles, whereas my brother prefers playing video games and my parents like watching films.

× In the afternoon I do some problem solving and in evening I always go to play soccer with my friends.

✓ In the afternoon, I do some problem solving, and in the evening, I always go to play soccer with my friends.

The expression for a regular time period is in the evening, not in evening. Use the definite article the with evening in this expression.

× When I was a child, I had hobbies as solving a puzzle to be my main activity.

✓ When I was a child, I had hobbies such as solving puzzles, with solving puzzles as my main activity.

Use such as to introduce examples of hobbies. The conjunction as alone cannot correctly introduce the example in this sentence.

× When I was a child, I had hobbies as solving a puzzle to be my main activity.

✓ When I was a child, I had hobbies such as solving puzzles, with solving puzzles as my main activity.

Because the student is describing puzzle-solving as a general hobby, the plural form puzzles is more appropriate than the singular form a puzzle.

× I continue solving puzzles when I have leisure time after work and including on the weekend, you know?

✓ I continue solving puzzles when I have leisure time after work and on weekends, you know?

The original sentence incorrectly joins after work and including on the weekend. Use the parallel structure after work and on weekends to connect the two time expressions clearly.

× It's very fun and keeps me more relaxed from demanding work along the week.

✓ It's very fun and keeps me more relaxed after demanding work during the week.

After is appropriate for describing the time following work, while during is used to describe a period of time. From and along do not correctly express these meanings here.

× To be honest, I don't have the same hobbies as my family because we have different kind of activities.

✓ To be honest, I don't have the same hobbies as my family because we have different kinds of activities.

The quantifier different refers to more than one type, so kind must be plural: different kinds. The noun activities is already correctly plural.
