Reading— Part 1 Relatório

Sugestão: Make the response more concise and slightly more natural by correcting tense and avoiding redundancy. Start with a clear topic sentence, then add one specific detail about why you enjoy those genres using a linking phrase.

Exemplo: Yes, I do. I’ve loved reading since childhood, especially novels and science fiction, because they stimulate my imagination and help me relax after a busy day.

Sugestão: Correct grammar and avoid repetition. Give a concise direct answer, then briefly explain with a specific reason using a linking word like 'because' or 'so'.

Exemplo: I prefer reading physical books because I have an eye condition, so screens strain my eyes and cause discomfort.

Sugestão: Begin with a clear topic sentence and use a linking word to give a specific example. Correct tense and avoid wordiness; mention when careful reading is not necessary with a contrasting connector like 'whereas' or 'but'.

Exemplo: I need to read very carefully during exams because I sometimes overlook words and choose the wrong answer, whereas I don’t read as carefully when I’m skimming messages or casual articles.

Sugestão: Provide a concise direct answer first, then use linking words to contrast the two situations. Avoid repetition and correct phrasing like 'dig deeper'. Give one clear example for each reading style.

Exemplo: It depends: I usually scan quick messages or while cramming to save time, but I use detailed reading when I need to fully understand a topic for study or work.

× I love reading ever since I was a kid.

✓ I have loved reading ever since I was a kid.

The original mixes present simple 'love' with a time expression 'ever since' that requires the present perfect. Use present perfect 'have loved' to link past start to present state. Suggestion: Use present perfect with 'since' to indicate an action or state that began in the past and continues now.

× Specifically, I prefer reading novels and science fiction because every time I read about them I feel more energized.

✓ Specifically, I prefer reading novels and science fiction because every time I read them I feel more energized.

The phrase 'read about them' implies reading information about the genres rather than reading the books. Removing 'about' correctly expresses reading the novels themselves. Suggestion: Use 'read them' when referring to reading the books directly.

× Well I would prefer reading on a physical book because I have an eye problem and reading in on my iPod would make my I feel painful.

✓ Well, I would prefer reading from a physical book because I have an eye problem and reading on my iPod would make my eyes feel painful.

Several issues: preposition use with 'reading from a book' is correct; 'in on my iPod' is incorrect preposition combination; 'my I' is a typo; 'eyes' plural needed; 'feel painful' is unnatural — 'feel painful' acceptable but better 'cause eye pain' or 'make my eyes hurt.' Suggestion: Use 'reading from a physical book' and 'reading on my iPod would make my eyes hurt' for natural phrasing.

× So I would prefer on a physical book.

✓ So I would prefer a physical book.

The structure 'prefer on a physical book' is incorrect. After 'prefer' you can use a noun phrase directly (prefer a physical book) or 'prefer reading on' with a device/surface. Here the intended meaning is choosing the book format, so omit the preposition. Suggestion: Say 'prefer a physical book' or 'prefer reading from a physical book.'

× I think I would need to read carefully when I am having my exams because there are times that I would tend to overlook some words which made me choose the wrong answer.

✓ I think I need to read carefully when I take my exams because there are times I tend to overlook some words, which makes me choose the wrong answer.

Mixing conditional/modal 'would' with general truth causes tense inconsistency. Use present simple 'need' and 'tend' for habitual situations. Change 'am having my exams' to 'take my exams.' 'Which made me choose' should be 'which makes me choose' to match habitual present. Suggestion: Use present simple for regular habits or general facts: 'I need to read carefully when I take my exams because I tend to overlook some words, which makes me choose the wrong answer.'

× It depends because there are times I prefer scanning when I just read text messages from my loved ones or scanning when I am cramming and detailed reading when I really have to deep dig deeper into the topic so I would understand more.

✓ It depends: sometimes I prefer scanning when I just read text messages from my loved ones or when I am cramming, but I use detailed reading when I really need to dig deeper into a topic so I can understand more.

The original sentence is run-on and repetitive ('deep dig deeper'). It repeats 'scanning' and mixes verb forms. Reorganize into clearer clauses: 'sometimes... or when... but I use detailed reading when...' Change 'would understand' to 'can understand' to express purpose. Remove redundant words. Suggestion: Break long sentences into clearer parts, avoid repetition, and use consistent verb forms like 'prefer scanning' and 'use detailed reading.'
