Tiredness— Part 1 Relatório

Sugestão: Answer the question directly and avoid hesitations, repetition, and unclear phrases such as “quite the various jobs” and “scaling up.” Use the correct expression “a lot of things to do” and briefly explain what has been keeping you busy. A clear topic sentence followed by one specific reason would make your answer more natural and effective.

Exemplo: Yes, I often feel tired. I’ve been feeling this way for the past two weeks because I’ve had a lot of tasks to complete at work. I’ve also been helping with a new project, so my schedule has been especially busy.

Sugestão: Use the correct expressions “every day,” “in the morning,” “get to the office,” and “after work.” Avoid saying “usually especially,” and organize the answer by mentioning the two situations clearly. Adding a brief reason would make the response more specific and coherent.

Exemplo: I usually feel tired in the morning, especially when I get to the office. I also feel exhausted when I get home after work because I’ve been concentrating on tasks all day.

Sugestão: The answer is relevant and includes a reason, but use “listen to music” rather than “listen to a music.” Replace the vague phrase “some exhausting jobs” with a clearer expression such as “the stress of work.” You can also use a linking word like “because” to connect your activities and their effects more naturally.

Exemplo: When I feel tired, I usually play a musical instrument or listen to music. These activities help me relax because they take my mind off the stress of work. After about half an hour, I normally feel calmer and more refreshed.

Sugestão: Give a direct answer and then explain what you do instead, but avoid repeating “when I feel tired.” The phrase “do small things” is vague, so provide one or two specific examples, such as taking a shower, watching a film, or going to bed early. Use “stay at home” for a more natural expression.

Exemplo: No, I usually stay at home when I feel tired instead of going out with my friends. I might take a warm shower, watch a short film, or go to bed early. This helps me recover so that I have more energy the next day.

× Yes I do. I've been feeling tired for two weeks because I have lot, lots of things to do now, umm, recently I've been doing some, uh, quite the various jobs and also some, uh, scaling up.

✓ Yes, I do. I've been feeling tired for two weeks because I have a lot of things to do. Recently, I've been doing various jobs and also some scaling up.

The quantifier is a lot of, not lot or lots of in this sentence. Use a lot of before a plural countable noun such as things.

× Yes I do. I've been feeling tired for two weeks because I have lot, lots of things to do now, umm, recently I've been doing some, uh, quite the various jobs and also some, uh, scaling up.

✓ Yes, I do. I've been feeling tired for two weeks because I have a lot of things to do. Recently, I've been doing various jobs and also some scaling up.

Quite the various jobs is not a natural grammatical combination here. Various can directly modify the plural noun jobs, so say various jobs.

× I feel tired all days. I usually especially feel tired at morning when I get at office and also when I get home after my job. I feel exhausted.

✓ I feel tired every day. I usually feel especially tired in the morning when I get to the office and also when I get home after work. I feel exhausted.

Use every day to mean each day. All day means continuously throughout one particular day, so it does not express the intended meaning here.

× I feel tired all days. I usually especially feel tired at morning when I get at office and also when I get home after my job. I feel exhausted.

✓ I feel tired every day. I usually feel especially tired in the morning when I get to the office and also when I get home after work. I feel exhausted.

The correct preposition in the fixed expression is in the morning, not at morning.

× I feel tired all days. I usually especially feel tired at morning when I get at office and also when I get home after my job. I feel exhausted.

✓ I feel tired every day. I usually feel especially tired in the morning when I get to the office and also when I get home after work. I feel exhausted.

Use get to when describing arrival at a place. Therefore, get at office should be changed to get to the office.

× I feel tired all days. I usually especially feel tired at morning when I get at office and also when I get home after my job. I feel exhausted.

✓ I feel tired every day. I usually feel especially tired in the morning when I get to the office and also when I get home after work. I feel exhausted.

Office is a singular countable noun referring to a specific place, so it needs the definite article the: the office.

× I usually play some musical instruments and listen to a music. It makes me feel more comfortable and makes me forget about some exhausting jobs.

✓ I usually play some musical instruments and listen to music. It makes me feel more comfortable and makes me forget about some exhausting jobs.

Music is an uncountable noun when referring to music in general, so it does not take the article a. Say listen to music, not listen to a music.
