Reading— Part 1 Relatório

Sugestão: Use uma estrutura mais direta com uma frase tópica seguida de uma ou duas frases de apoio concisas. Evite frases longas e ligeiras imprecisões gramaticais (por ex., "gave my first book to read" → "gave me my first book"). Varie o vocabulário (por ex., "enjoyed", "developed a habit of reading").

Exemplo: Yes, I do. I developed a habit of reading when I was a teenager because a teacher gave me my first book, and since then I have read regularly. Reading helps me relax and learn new ideas.

Sugestão: Seja mais natural e corrija erros de collocation e gramática: diga "appealing to me" e "store your books". Combine opiniões e razões com uma palavra de ligação (e.g., "however" ou "but") de forma concisa. Não repita ideias.

Exemplo: I prefer reading on paper because physical books feel more comfortable and engaging to me. However, I appreciate e-readers for their convenience and ability to store many titles.

Sugestão: Dê uma frase direta a começar, depois explique com exemplos concretos. Evite hesitações como "I guess" e redundância como "I think that I could". Use conectores (e.g., "because", "whereas").

Exemplo: I need to read carefully when the text is descriptive or implies hidden meanings because I want to understand details and subtext. In contrast, I skim dialogue-heavy or simple texts if they don't add much to the story.

Sugestão: Corrija pequenos erros gramaticais e de collocation: diga "it depends on the book" e "involving" → "engaging" ou "captivating". Comece com uma frase tópica clara e use um conector para contrastar as preferências.

Exemplo: It depends on the book. I scan texts that are light or dialogue-driven because I'm looking for the main points, but I read in detail when the plot is engaging or contains complex ideas.

× Yes I do. I've been enjoying reading since I was a teenager when my teacher gave my first book to read and since then I couldn't stop.

✓ Yes, I do. I've enjoyed reading since I was a teenager, when my teacher gave me my first book to read, and I haven't been able to stop since then.

The original mixes tenses incorrectly: 'I've been enjoying' is continuous present perfect but the subsequent clause uses 'couldn't stop', which is past simple and inconsistent with 'since'. Use present perfect simple or present perfect continuous with 'haven't been able to stop since then' to show an action continuing from the past to the present. Also correct object: 'gave my first book to read' should be 'gave me my first book to read'. Add commas for clarity.

× Hard copies are more appealing to myself.

✓ Hard copies are more appealing to me.

'Myself' is a reflexive pronoun used when the subject and object are the same or for emphasis (I myself). Here the correct object pronoun is 'me'. Use 'me' after 'appealing to'.

× However, I understand the advantages of having a device to storage your books.

✓ However, I understand the advantages of having a device to store your books.

The verb 'store' is required after 'to' (infinitive). 'Storage' is a noun and incorrect in this structure. Also 'your' is fine if referring to a general reader; no change required beyond verb correction.

× I think it it depends of the book that I'm reading.

✓ I think it depends on the book I'm reading.

The correct preposition with 'depends' is 'on', not 'of'. Remove the duplicated 'it' and the relative clause can be simplified: 'the book I'm reading'.

× But when I see that the plot is interesting and involving, I like detail reading.

✓ But when I find the plot interesting and engaging, I like detailed reading.

Use 'find' rather than 'see' for evaluating a plot. 'Involving' is awkward; 'engaging' is more natural. 'Detail reading' is incorrect; use the adjective 'detailed' with 'reading' or say 'detailed reading' or 'reading in detail'. Adjust word order accordingly.
