Music— Part 1 Relatório

Sugestão: Be more concise and organize your answer with a clear topic sentence followed by one or two specific reasons using linking words. Avoid unnecessary qualifiers and repetition (e.g., "not to say that..."). Also give a brief example of the kind of sad music you mean to show concreteness.

Exemplo: I prefer sad music. Firstly, it often conveys deep emotions and helps me reflect, for example songs with piano and slow vocals like Adele’s ballads. Secondly, it can transport me into a more introspective mood, which I find comforting. However, I don’t like sad music that feels melodramatic.

Sugestão: Start with a direct answer, then use linking words to give one or two clear conditions or examples. Replace informal phrases ("gonna") with neutral language and choose more precise vocabulary ("uplift" rather than "infect its positive vibes").

Exemplo: It depends on my mood. Generally, yes, happy music uplifts me and makes me feel more energetic; for instance, I listen to upbeat pop when I need motivation. However, if I’m feeling deeply sad, upbeat songs usually have little effect.

Sugestão: Provide a structured response: a clear topic sentence about whether you took classes, followed by two specific supporting details (who enrolled you, what instrument, why you stopped). Avoid filler words and minor inconsistencies in dates; keep it concise and coherent.

Exemplo: Yes, I took piano lessons between ages four and six after my grandfather enrolled me. The teacher came to our house to use the family’s grand piano, but I quit at seven because I found the lessons too stressful. As a result, I’ve since forgotten most of what I learned.

Sugestão: Keep the answer direct, then give one or two specific examples of activities and music types, using linking words to connect ideas. Replace vague phrases like "any kind of music" and "do my job" with more precise terms ("housework", "studying").

Exemplo: Yes, I often listen to music while doing household chores. For example, I play upbeat pop when I’m cleaning to keep my energy up, or mellow jazz when I’m cooking because it helps me concentrate and relax.

× It would depend on my mood.

✓ It would depend on my mood.

No correction needed; sentence is grammatically acceptable. (No change: 'depend' is correctly used in infinitive after 'would'.)

× happy music does infect its positive vibes to my well-being as well.

✓ happy music does transmit its positive vibes to my well-being as well.

The verb 'infect' is incorrect collocated with 'vibes' and 'to my well-being'. 'Infect' implies disease; 'transmit' or 'send' fits the meaning. Also 'to my well-being' can remain but 'for my well-being' is more natural. Suggestion: use 'transmit its positive vibes to me' or 'have a positive effect on my well-being' for clarity.

× I don't think some upbeat tune is gonna help much.

✓ I don't think an upbeat tune is going to help much.

Use standard 'going to' instead of colloquial 'gonna' in formal speech. Also use 'an' before 'upbeat tune' because 'upbeat' begins with a vowel sound.

× One when I was 4 until I was six years old, my grandfather enrolled me into a piano class Umm.

✓ When I was four until I was six years old, my grandfather enrolled me in a piano class.

Original word order is awkward. Place the time expression at the start or immediately after the verb for clarity. Use 'enrolled me in' (correct preposition) rather than 'enrolled me into'. Spell out numbers in prose for consistency ('four' and 'six'). Remove filler 'Umm' in writing.

× Our teacher came to his house because he had a grand piano.

✓ Our teacher came to our house because my grandfather had a grand piano.

Pronoun reference 'his' was ambiguous; replace with 'our' or specify 'my grandfather' to clarify who owned the piano. Past tense 'came' and 'had' are correct.

× However, I stopped when I was 7 because I thought it was too stressful.

✓ However, I stopped when I was seven because I thought it was too stressful.

No grammatical tense error, but spell out 'seven'. Sentence is acceptable otherwise.

× I've forgotten all the skills now, but it wasn't a good experience.

✓ I've forgotten all the skills now, and it wasn't a good experience.

'I've forgotten' (present perfect) is correct. Replace comma with 'and' to join two independent clauses properly or use a semicolon. Suggestion: 'I have forgotten all the skills now; it wasn't a good experience.' for formal writing.

× Yes, I like listening to music while doing other things.

✓ Yes, I like listening to music while doing other things.

Sentence is grammatically correct; no quantifier error. No change necessary.

× Mostly I put on music while I'm doing chores.

✓ Mostly I put music on while I'm doing chores.

'Put on music' is acceptable, but word order 'put music on' is more natural in spoken English. Both are correct; this change is stylistic.

× it can be any kind of music.

✓ It can be any kind of music.

Capitalization: start sentence with capital 'It'. Grammatically correct otherwise.

× It doesn't have to be upbeat.

✓ It doesn't have to be upbeat.

Sentence is correct; no change needed.

× It could be just some mellow tunes like jazz because it puts me in a greater mood to do my job.

✓ It could be just some mellow tunes like jazz because they put me in a better mood to do my work.

'Tunes' is plural, so verb should be 'they put' not 'it puts'. Use 'better mood' instead of 'greater mood'. Use 'work' rather than 'job' for natural collocation. Also keep pronoun-verb agreement.
