Tiredness— Part 1 Relatório

Sugestão: Improve grammar (past tense agreement and subject-verb), finish your sentence, and keep answers concise. Start with a clear topic sentence (directly answer), then give one or two specific reasons using linking words. Avoid redundancy and unnecessary filler.

Exemplo: Yes, I used to feel tired a lot when I was at school and during my early years at work. However, now I feel much more energetic because I improved my sleep routine and started exercising regularly, which helps me maintain steady energy throughout the day.

Sugestão: Provide a clear topic sentence and give specific, correctly phrased examples. Use linking words (for example, such as) and avoid invented phrases. Correct collocations (e.g., "stay up overnight", "burn the midnight oil").

Exemplo: I usually feel tired when I overextend myself during the day. For example, if I do too much intense exercise or stay up overnight working — in other words, when I burn the midnight oil — I feel exhausted the next day.

Sugestão: Answer directly, correct verb forms and parallel structure, and complete your thought. State one preferred strategy and briefly explain why it works using linking words (because, so). Avoid contradictions without clarification.

Exemplo: When I feel tired now, I usually go to sleep early because rest is the most effective way to recover. Previously I used to watch videos or play games, but I found that sleeping helps me regain energy faster and improves my concentration the next day.

× I used to feel tired all the time when I were at school and the first few years at work, but now I feel much better and energetic everyday because I learned a new way to keep my energy and.

✓ I used to feel tired all the time when I was at school and during the first few years at work, but now I feel much better and more energetic every day because I have learned a new way to maintain my energy.

The sentence contains incorrect past tense for the verb 'to be' (were -> was) because the subject 'I' requires singular past 'was'. 'Everyday' was used as an adjective but the adverb 'every day' is needed. 'Learned' should be present perfect 'have learned' to link past learning to the present result. Also 'energetic' needs the comparative phrase 'more energetic' to contrast, and 'keep my energy' is better expressed as 'maintain my energy'. Suggested improvement: use 'I was' for singular past, 'every day' for frequency, and present perfect when a past action has present relevance.

× but now I feel much better and energetic everyday because I learned a new way to keep my energy and.

✓ but now I feel much better and more energetic every day because I have learned a new way to maintain my energy.

Combine adjectives correctly: 'much better and energetic' is awkward; use 'much better and more energetic'. 'Everyday' vs 'every day' as above. 'Keep my energy' is less natural than 'maintain my energy'. Also remove the trailing 'and' which creates an incomplete clause. Suggested improvement: pair comparative structures properly and avoid sentence fragments.

× When would you feel tired? Student: I feel tired most because I over drain my energy that day.

✓ I feel tired mostly because I overdrain my energy that day.

The adverb placement: use 'mostly' rather than 'most' to modify the verb phrase. 'Over drain' should be a single verb 'overdrain' or better 'drain' with 'too much' (see next suggestion). Tense 'that day' is okay if referring to the same day. Suggested improvement: 'I feel tired mostly because I drain my energy too much that day.'.

× Like doing too much exercise or starting uh, overnight.

✓ For example, doing too much exercise or staying up overnight.

'Starting overnight' is incorrect; the intended meaning is 'staying up overnight', which uses the gerund 'staying' plus adverb 'up'. 'Like' at sentence start is informal; use 'for example' in speaking transcripts for clarity. Suggested improvement: use correct verb+ing collocations like 'staying up'.

× Like burning the midline oil or pulling oil lighter.

✓ Like burning the midnight oil or pulling an all-nighter.

Phrases were nonstandard or mixed: 'midline oil' should be the idiom 'midnight oil' meaning working late; 'pulling oil lighter' is incorrect and likely a confused version of 'pulling an all-nighter'. Use established idioms to convey meaning. Suggested improvement: learn common idioms: 'burning the midnight oil' or 'pulling an all-nighter'.

× That is sort of things and umm, that's it.

✓ Those are the kinds of things that make me tired, and that's about it.

Original sentence is fragmented and ungrammatical. 'That is sort of things' mixes singular 'that' with plural 'things'; use 'those' and 'kinds of things'. Also 'umm' is filler; in corrected transcript, convert to natural phrasing. Suggested improvement: match demonstratives to number and use complete clauses.

× In the past I would, uh, I would watch some fun videos and uh, playing some video games to relieve my tiredness.

✓ In the past I would watch some fun videos and play some video games to relieve my tiredness.

Parallel structure after 'would' requires base form verbs: 'would watch' and 'would play' or omit repeated 'would' and use 'watch' and 'play'. The original mixes 'would' + base with a gerund 'playing', which is ungrammatical. Suggested improvement: maintain parallel verb forms after modal verbs.

× But now I realize it's another way to waste my energy so I would sleep and staying doing nothing instead.

✓ But now I realize it's another way to waste my energy, so I sleep and do nothing instead.

After 'would' the verb forms must be base forms; here 'would sleep and staying doing nothing' mixes 'would' with gerund forms. Also 'staying doing nothing' is incorrect; use 'do nothing'. Use present tense 'sleep' and 'do' to indicate habitual present behavior. Suggested improvement: use simple present for current habits and keep verbs parallel.

× Now to keep my.

✓ Now, to keep my energy, I try to rest more and manage my activities better.

Original is an incomplete fragment ending abruptly. Provide a complete sentence that conveys intended meaning. Suggested improvement: finish thoughts and avoid sentence fragments.
