Reading— Part 1 Báo cáo

Gợi ý: Be more concise and organize your response: start with a clear topic sentence, then give one or two specific reasons with examples. Reduce hesitations and avoid vague phrases like "poor dominant reading." Use linking words to connect ideas (e.g., "however", "because").

Ví dụ: Yes, I enjoy reading. However, I often get distracted, which wastes time because I check my phone frequently; for example, I sometimes stop every ten minutes to look at notifications. As a result, I try to read in a quiet place to stay focused.

Gợi ý: Good structure and clear reason. Improve grammar (subject-verb agreement and articles), vary vocabulary (e.g., "prefer", "concentrate", "digital devices"). Add a brief specific example and a linking word to make it more natural.

Ví dụ: I prefer reading on paper because it helps me concentrate better. For example, when I read a textbook in print I don’t get interrupted by app notifications on my phone. Therefore, printed books are my choice for serious reading.

Gợi ý: Avoid repetition and start directly. Provide one or two clear situations with concise reasons and a linking word. Replace vague phrases like "something related" with specific examples (e.g., "job applications, technical reports").

Ví dụ: I need to read carefully when studying for exams or preparing job applications because mistakes can have serious consequences. By contrast, I don’t read carefully when I’m browsing blogs or casual articles, since those are just for relaxation.

Gợi ý: Good answer structure but be more succinct and correct grammar. Use linking words (e.g., "for instance", "whereas") and provide one clear example of each mode to show contrast.

Ví dụ: It depends: I use detailed reading for important tasks, for instance when studying for exams or preparing reports, because accuracy matters. Whereas I scan articles or novels casually to get the main ideas quickly.

× Yeah, I do like reading, but I always get distracted when I read and those it creates a lot of confusion, uh, wastage of time and it just creates poor dominant reading.

✓ Yes, I do like reading, but I always get distracted when I read, and that creates a lot of confusion, wasted time, and poor reading comprehension.

The sentence has awkward structure and incorrect word choices. 'those it creates' is ungrammatical; use 'that creates' to refer to distraction. 'wastage of time' is non-idiomatic; use 'wasted time'. 'poor dominant reading' is unclear; 'poor reading comprehension' conveys the intended meaning. Also replace informal 'Yeah' with 'Yes' in a formal response and add commas to separate clauses.

× I prefer to read on paper as compared to screen because paper make me feel more focused than screen.

✓ I prefer to read on paper rather than on a screen because paper makes me feel more focused than a screen.

Missing articles and subject-verb agreement: 'screen' needs the article 'a' and the comparison should be 'rather than on a screen'. 'paper make' is incorrect verb form; singular subject 'paper' requires 'makes'. Rephrase for idiomatic comparison: 'rather than on a screen'. Also include 'on' before 'a screen'.

× A screen have lot of distractions such as the notifications of games or any news.

✓ A screen has a lot of distractions, such as notifications from games or news.

Subject-verb agreement: 'A screen' (singular) requires 'has' not 'have'. Use 'a lot of' and remove unnecessary article 'the' before 'notifications'. Use 'notifications from games or news' for natural phrasing.

× Thus I feel more focused when I read through paper.

✓ Thus I feel more focused when I read on paper.

Use the preposition 'on' with 'paper' to indicate medium: 'read on paper'. 'Read through paper' is unidiomatic. No article is needed before 'paper' in this general statement.

× But I need to read carefully when I'm reading or I'm studying something important, something related to my career or something related to the examination, or I'm giving the examination.

✓ I need to read carefully when I'm studying something important, such as something related to my career or an examination, or when I am taking an examination.

Repetitive and awkward phrasing. Use consistent present continuous 'I'm studying' and 'when I am taking an examination' for clarity. Replace 'giving the examination' (incorrect collocation) with 'taking an examination'.

× It is just much more important that I need to read carefully.

✓ It is simply much more important, so I need to read carefully.

Awkward connector and redundancy. 'It is just much more important that I need to read carefully' is ungrammatical; rephrase to show cause: 'It is simply much more important, so I need to read carefully.' This clarifies the relationship between importance and the need to read carefully.

× Well, it depends. I prefer both. I prefer detailed reading for important work such as studying for examinations or making some documents of works.

✓ Well, it depends. I like both. I prefer detailed reading for important work, such as studying for examinations or preparing work documents.

'Prefer both' is acceptable but 'I like both' is more natural. 'making some documents of works' is ungrammatical; use 'preparing work documents' or 'preparing documents for work'. Also add a comma after 'work' and use gerund forms appropriately.

× And I also prefer scanning when it I'm just doing a regular or casual reading of book or something else.

✓ I also prefer scanning when I'm just doing a regular or casual reading of a book or something similar.

Remove extraneous 'it' ('when it I'm' is ungrammatical). 'reading of book' needs the article 'a' before 'book'. 'something else' is vague; 'something similar' is more natural. Ensure correct word order: 'when I'm just doing a regular or casual reading' is fine but could be shortened to 'when I'm casually reading a book' for conciseness.
