Building— Part 1 Relatório

Sugestão: Be more concise and natural: start with a clear topic sentence, then give one or two specific supporting details. Avoid repetition and incomplete sentences. Use linking words (e.g., 'for example', 'mostly', 'so') to connect ideas and correct small grammar issues (e.g., 'there are not tall buildings' → 'there aren’t any tall buildings').

Exemplo: No, there aren’t any tall buildings near my home. Most houses are only three or four storeys high, so the skyline looks low and residential. For example, my street is lined with similar mid-rise homes, which makes the area feel quieter and more community-focused.

Sugestão: Give a direct answer then explain briefly with clear reasons and correct phrasing. Use linking words to contrast (e.g., 'but', 'however') and avoid vague phrases like 'I would there'. Use specific vocabulary ('architecture', 'skyscrapers', 'neighborhood').

Exemplo: Not really — I don’t usually photograph buildings because my neighbourhood doesn’t have interesting architecture. However, I would love to take pictures in New York because its skyscrapers and diverse styles of architecture look very impressive and photogenic.

Sugestão: Start with a direct response and then give a specific example of a building and a reason. Avoid repeating 'not really' and correct phrases ('go to New York', 'learn about'). Use linking words like 'but' and 'for example'.

Exemplo: I’m not especially knowledgeable about buildings, but I would like to visit some famous ones in New York. For example, I’d visit the Empire State Building to learn about its history and admire its Art Deco architecture.

Sugestão: Give a clear direct answer, then explain briefly with logical linking words. Correct grammar (e.g., 'I have anxiety about heights', 'I would live in one there'). Offer a concrete plan or condition to make the answer more specific and natural.

Exemplo: No, I wouldn’t prefer to live in a tall building because I have anxiety about heights. However, if I wanted to overcome that fear, I might try living in a high-rise in New York for a few months as a way to gradually get used to the height and build confidence.

× No, there are not tall buildings near my home.

✓ No, there are not any tall buildings near my home.

Missing 'any' after negative 'there are not' when referring to countable plural nouns. In English negatives with plural nouns typically use 'any' (e.g. 'there are not any books'). Use 'there are not any tall buildings' to be grammatical.

× A lot of the houses are of the same range and we can see people within our home range.

✓ Many of the houses are similar in style, and we can see people within our neighborhood.

Phrase 'are of the same range' is unnatural and unclear. 'A lot of' plus plural noun is acceptable but 'many' is more natural with 'houses'. 'Home range' is incorrect for neighborhood; use 'neighborhood'. Also the sentence needed a conjunction and clearer structure.

× It's basically three to four floors in each house.

✓ Each house is basically three to four storeys high.

Original phrasing treats 'three to four floors' as a clause without a verb agreeing with subject. Use subject 'each house' with verb 'is' and adjust word order to 'three to four storeys high' for natural English. Also 'storeys' or 'stories' is more natural than 'floors in each house' in this context.

× That is enough to stay and.

✓ That is enough to live in.

Fragment and incorrect ending 'to stay and' is incomplete. Use 'to live in' to express suitability for living. Ensure the verb and preposition complete the idea.

× Not really, I'm not fond of building.

✓ Not really, I'm not fond of buildings.

Singular 'building' should be plural 'buildings' when speaking generally. Use plural for general preferences.

× There aren't any high rises of buildings near my neighborhood as well, so I don't really like to click pictures of it.

✓ There aren't any high-rise buildings near my neighborhood either, so I don't really like to take pictures of them.

Use 'high-rise buildings' as a compound noun; 'of' is incorrect. 'As well' is better as 'either' in negative sentences. 'Click pictures' is informal and awkward—'take pictures' is standard. 'It' should be 'them' to refer to plural 'buildings'.

× But I would love to take pictures in New York because there are tall buildings and different architectures, so maybe I would there.

✓ But I would love to take pictures in New York because there are tall buildings and different architectures, so maybe I would go there.

Missing verb 'go' in final clause: 'maybe I would there' is ungrammatical. Add 'go' to form 'maybe I would go there.' Also 'different architectures' is awkward; 'different architectural styles' would be more natural but changed only when within allowed types.

× I don't really have a a very good knowledge about buildings and not really fond of it, but if I could, maybe I would go in New York and visit some famous building out there and understand their architecture and know about it.

✓ I don't really have very good knowledge about buildings and I'm not really fond of them, but if I could, maybe I would go to New York and visit some famous buildings there to learn about their architecture.

Multiple issues: double 'a a' typo removed. 'Knowledge' is uncountable so use 'very good knowledge' (no article). 'Not really fond of it' should be 'not really fond of them' to match plural 'buildings'. Use 'go to New York' not 'go in New York'. 'Visit some famous buildings' plural to match 'their architecture'. Replace 'understand their architecture and know about it' with 'learn about their architecture' for concision and correctness.

× I don't really have a good feeling about tall buildings because I have an anxiety of height.

✓ I don't really have a good feeling about tall buildings because I have a fear of heights.

'An anxiety of height' is unnatural. Use 'a fear of heights' or 'anxiety about heights'. 'Fear of heights' is the common collocation.

× But if I had to face my fear I would in New York because there are a lot of skyscrapers there.

✓ But if I had to face my fear, I would do it in New York because there are a lot of skyscrapers there.

Missing object 'do it' after 'would' makes the clause incomplete. Add 'do it' to indicate facing the fear. Also add a comma after the conditional clause for clarity.

× So maybe I would decrease the fear of height and actually live in one.

✓ So maybe I would overcome my fear of heights and actually live in one.

'Decrease the fear of height' is unnatural; 'overcome my fear of heights' is the correct collocation. Use possessive 'my' with 'fear' and plural 'heights'.
