Reading— Part 1 Relatório

Sugestão: Cải thiện: Câu trả lời đã rõ ràng và tự nhiên, nhưng để đạt điểm cao hơn hãy rút ngắn một chút, dùng một câu chủ đề rõ ràng hơn rồi bổ sung một hoặc hai chi tiết cụ thể. Tránh lặp từ (ví dụ “audio books” và “listen to news” lặp ý nghe). Có thể thêm một liên từ chuyển mạch ngắn để mạch lạc hơn.

Exemplo: I don’t enjoy long periods of reading because my eyes get tired quickly. Instead, I usually listen to audiobooks or news podcasts before bed, which is more relaxing and lets me absorb information without eye strain.

Sugestão: Cải thiện: Câu trả lời trả lời trực tiếp nhưng hơi lặp và dài dòng. Nên bắt đầu bằng một câu ngắn trả lời rõ về 'paper or screen', rồi giải thích ngắn gọn với từ nối (e.g., "because"). Chỉnh ngữ pháp nhỏ (remove extra 'a' before 'YouTube videos') và tránh lặp từ 'listen to'.

Exemplo: I prefer digital media rather than reading on paper or screen because I’m mainly an auditory and visual learner. For example, I listen to podcasts and watch YouTube videos to grasp and remember topics more effectively.

Sugestão: Cải thiện: Câu trả lời rõ ràng và có ví dụ cụ thể. Để tự nhiên hơn, bỏ từ thừa như 'Yes' ở đầu và dùng liên từ để kết nối hai phần (e.g., 'However'). Thêm một cụ thể ngắn về cách bạn skim (ví dụ: đọc đầu đoạn hoặc tìm nhân vật) sẽ tăng tính cụ thể.

Exemplo: I need to read carefully for exams or class materials because I must understand details and avoid mistakes. However, for entertainment like novels I usually skim—focusing on key paragraphs or following the main characters—so I can enjoy the story without reading every word.

Sugestão: Cải thiện: Rất tốt: câu chủ đề rõ ràng, có đối chiếu và mục tiêu cải thiện. Có thể kết hợp hai câu bằng liên từ ngắn và sửa lặp 'improves' thành 'improve'. Thêm một ví dụ cụ thể về cách bạn sẽ thực hành detailed reading sẽ làm câu thuyết phục hơn.

Exemplo: I prefer scanning to get the main ideas quickly, but I’m trying to practise detailed reading to improve my concentration and understanding of complex texts. For instance, I now spend 20 minutes on one article and annotate unfamiliar vocabulary and summaries to deepen comprehension.

× I don't really enjoy reading for long because my eyes become tired after only 10 minutes, whether I use printed books or an electronic screen.

✓ I don't really enjoy reading for long because my eyes get tired after only 10 minutes, whether I use printed books or an electronic screen.

Use 'get tired' or 'become tired' is acceptable; however 'get tired' is more natural in this context. This is a present tense/state description; use simple present 'get' to describe a general, habitual reaction. Suggestion: use 'get tired' for naturalness.

× Instead, I usually listen to news or audio books before I go to sleep because it's more relaxing and I can still absorb information without straining my eyes.

✓ Instead, I usually listen to the news or to audiobooks before I go to sleep because it's more relaxing and I can still absorb information without straining my eyes.

Use the definite article 'the' with 'news' when referring to news in general contexts and combine 'audio' + 'books' into the single word 'audiobooks' or use 'audio books' with a preposition 'to'. Also 'listen to' requires the preposition 'to' before the object. Suggestion: say 'listen to the news' or 'listen to audiobooks'.

× I'm more of an auditory and visual learner, so I often listen to podcasts or audio books or watch a YouTube videos about a topic.

✓ I'm more of an auditory and visual learner, so I often listen to podcasts or audiobooks or watch YouTube videos about a topic.

Use plural form 'YouTube videos' without article 'a' when speaking generally. 'Audio books' should be 'audiobooks' or 'audio books' as one concept. Remove 'a' before the plural noun. Suggestion: use plural nouns without 'a' for general statements: 'watch YouTube videos'.

× These formats help me understand and remember information better.

✓ These formats help me understand and remember information better.

This sentence is grammatically correct; no preposition error. No change needed. Explanation: 'help' + bare infinitive 'understand' is correct. Left as is.

× Yes, there are situations when I need to read carefully, for example during exams or when I read materials before class because I must understand details and avoid mistakes.

✓ Yes, there are situations when I need to read carefully, for example during exams or when I read material before class because I must understand the details and avoid mistakes.

Use 'material' uncountable when referring to reading materials in general. Also 'the details' is more natural when indicating specific details that must be understood. Suggestion: use 'material' or 'reading materials' and include 'the' before 'details'.

× But when I refer it for entertainment, like a novel, I usually skim and scan to enjoy the story rather than focus on every word.

✓ But when I read it for entertainment, like a novel, I usually skim and scan to enjoy the story rather than focus on every word.

The verb 'refer' is incorrect here; the intended verb is 'read'. Also ensure pronoun 'it' refers correctly to 'a novel' — 'read it' is correct. Suggestion: replace 'refer' with 'read' to match meaning.

× I prefer scanning because it helps me get the main ideas of articles in the shortest amount of time.

✓ I prefer scanning because it helps me get the main ideas of articles in the shortest amount of time.

Sentence is correct: 'prefer' + gerund 'scanning' is appropriate. No correction needed.

× However, I want to practice reading more carefully because detailed reading helps me improve my concentration and improves my understanding of complex text.

✓ However, I want to practice reading more carefully because detailed reading helps me improve my concentration and my understanding of complex texts.

Maintain parallel structure: use 'helps me improve' once and then parallel noun phrase 'my understanding'. Also 'text' should be plural 'texts' when speaking generally. Suggestion: keep parallel construction and pluralize when generalizing.
