Walking— Part 1 Báo cáo

Gợi ý: Answer the question directly in the first sentence: say that you do not walk much. Correct the grammar by using “I work as a software engineer,” “I work at the office every day,” and “I sit at my desk.” Also, distinguish between walking and exercising: working out in a gym does not necessarily mean walking. Add one specific reason or example, and avoid repeating “working.”

Ví dụ: Not really. I work as a software engineer, so I spend most of the day sitting at my desk in the office. I usually walk for about 20 to 30 minutes when I go to the gym, but I do not walk much in my daily routine.

Gợi ý: Use the past tense consistently: “walked,” “went,” and “helped.” The phrase “I work with my family” is incorrect in this context; say “I went for walks with my family.” Give a complete explanation of how this activity benefited you, and avoid ending with an unfinished phrase such as “or.”

Ví dụ: Yes, quite often. When I was a child, I went for a walk in the park with my family almost every Sunday. It helped us stay fit and gave us a chance to spend quality time together, especially because we did not go to the gym back then.

Gợi ý: Use the verb “walking,” not “working,” and avoid switching unnecessarily between “we” and “you.” Organize the response with a clear reason and contrast: parks are quieter and greener than streets. Improve the natural phrasing by saying “enjoy the scenery” and “breathe fresh air,” rather than “view around” and “really good environment.”

Ví dụ: People like walking in parks because they can relax and escape the traffic and noise of busy streets. Parks are usually quieter and greener, so people can enjoy the scenery, breathe fresh air, and have a peaceful conversation with friends or family.

Gợi ý: Use “walk around” instead of “work around,” and make the location more precise. Explain why you would choose it by linking the scenery to your personal enjoyment. Replace the awkward ending with a complete sentence, and use “that kind of scenery” or list the attractions in a parallel structure.

Ví dụ: I would like to take a long walk around the Riverstone area. It has beautiful scenery, including the Western Forest, waterfalls, and a variety of wildlife. I would enjoy walking there because the peaceful natural surroundings would help me relax and take a break from city life.

Gợi ý: Answer in the past tense and use the correct structure: “I haven’t gone anywhere for a walk lately.” The word “work” should be “walk,” and “go to anywhere” should be “go anywhere.” Since the question asks about a recent walk, clearly say that you have not taken one and briefly explain when or where you plan to go instead.

Ví dụ: I haven’t gone anywhere for a walk lately because I have been busy with work. However, I hope to visit a nearby nature reserve next year, where I can take a long walk and enjoy the fresh air.

× Not really because I'm currently working at software engineer and I everyday I working at the office while sitting on my desk, but when I'm working out I work around 20 to 30 minutes in the gym.

✓ Not really, because I currently work as a software engineer. Every day, I work at the office while sitting at my desk, but when I work out, I exercise for around 20 to 30 minutes at the gym.

Use as, not at, before a profession: work as a software engineer. Also, we usually say sit at my desk, not sit on my desk. The preposition at is natural for a specific place such as the gym.

× Not really because I'm currently working at software engineer and I everyday I working at the office while sitting on my desk, but when I'm working out I work around 20 to 30 minutes in the gym.

✓ Not really, because I currently work as a software engineer. Every day, I work at the office while sitting at my desk, but when I work out, I exercise for around 20 to 30 minutes at the gym.

For a regular job and routine, use the simple present: I work. The form I working is incomplete because it needs the auxiliary verb am. Use I am working only when emphasizing an activity in progress.

× Not really because I'm currently working at software engineer and I everyday I working at the office while sitting on my desk, but when I'm working out I work around 20 to 30 minutes in the gym.

✓ Not really, because I currently work as a software engineer. Every day, I work at the office while sitting at my desk, but when I work out, I exercise for around 20 to 30 minutes at the gym.

The time expression every day normally comes at the beginning or end of the clause: Every day, I work at the office. Also, every day means each day, while everyday is an adjective meaning ordinary or usual.

× Of course, when I was a child, I work with my family in the park every Sunday. Yeah, it basically helps us to our fitness in because, uh, that time we never went to the gym or.

✓ Of course. When I was a child, I walked with my family in the park every Sunday. It basically helped us stay fit because, at that time, we never went to the gym.

The question asks about a past period, and the time clause begins with when I was a child. Therefore, use the past form walked and helped, not the present forms work and helps.

× Of course, when I was a child, I work with my family in the park every Sunday. Yeah, it basically helps us to our fitness in because, uh, that time we never went to the gym or.

✓ Of course. When I was a child, I walked with my family in the park every Sunday. It basically helped us stay fit because, at that time, we never went to the gym.

Use the definite article in the gym because gym refers to a specific type of familiar place in this context. The phrase at that time also needs the article the.

× Of course, when I was a child, I work with my family in the park every Sunday. Yeah, it basically helps us to our fitness in because, uh, that time we never went to the gym or.

✓ Of course. When I was a child, I walked with my family in the park every Sunday. It basically helped us stay fit because, at that time, we never went to the gym.

The phrase helps us to our fitness in is incomplete and incorrectly organized. Use the clear structure help someone stay fit. Also, because should introduce a complete reason clause, and the unfinished word or should be removed.

× Of course, when I was a child, I work with my family in the park every Sunday. Yeah, it basically helps us to our fitness in because, uh, that time we never went to the gym or.

✓ Of course. When I was a child, I walked with my family in the park every Sunday. It basically helped us stay fit because, at that time, we never went to the gym.

Because should directly connect the result with its reason: It helped us stay fit because we walked every Sunday. Do not place in before because, and do not leave the sentence ending with the incomplete conjunction or.

× I think they need to feel relaxed because when we are working around the streets, uh, there is so much traffic and there is so much noise. Uh, but when you are talking with in the park, you can just view around and really good environment and you can just relax and working.

✓ I think people need to feel relaxed because when they are walking along the streets, there is so much traffic and noise. However, when they are walking in a park, they can look around, enjoy the really good environment, and relax.

Use a before a singular countable noun when it is mentioned generally: a park. In the phrase a really good environment, the article a is also needed because environment is a singular countable noun here.

× I think they need to feel relaxed because when we are working around the streets, uh, there is so much traffic and there is so much noise. Uh, but when you are talking with in the park, you can just view around and really good environment and you can just relax and working.

✓ I think people need to feel relaxed because when they are walking along the streets, there is so much traffic and noise. However, when they are walking in a park, they can look around, enjoy the really good environment, and relax.

After can, use the base form of the verb: can look, not can looking. In a list of coordinated verbs, keep the forms parallel: look around, enjoy the environment, and relax. Do not use working after relax in this structure.

× I think they need to feel relaxed because when we are working around the streets, uh, there is so much traffic and there is so much noise. Uh, but when you are talking with in the park, you can just view around and really good environment and you can just relax and working.

✓ I think people need to feel relaxed because when they are walking along the streets, there is so much traffic and noise. However, when they are walking in a park, they can look around, enjoy the really good environment, and relax.

The original sentence contains incomplete and disconnected phrases, such as view around and really good environment. Organize the ideas into a complete clause with parallel verbs: look around, enjoy the environment, and relax.

× I would like to work around the riverstone area because there is such a beautiful environment and we can see the western forest and waterfalls and wildlife, those kind of things we can watch while.

✓ I would like to walk around the Riverstone area because it has such a beautiful environment. We can see the Western Forest, waterfalls, and wildlife—those kinds of things we can see while walking.

Because those refers to more than one thing, use the plural form kinds: those kinds of things. The singular form kind does not agree with the plural demonstrative those.

× I would like to work around the riverstone area because there is such a beautiful environment and we can see the western forest and waterfalls and wildlife, those kind of things we can watch while.

✓ I would like to walk around the Riverstone area because it has such a beautiful environment. We can see the Western Forest, waterfalls, and wildlife—those kinds of things we can see while walking.

The final idea needs a participle phrase describing the activity happening at the same time: while walking. The word while by itself cannot complete this meaning.

× I would like to work around the riverstone area because there is such a beautiful environment and we can see the western forest and waterfalls and wildlife, those kind of things we can watch while.

✓ I would like to walk around the Riverstone area because it has such a beautiful environment. We can see the Western Forest, waterfalls, and wildlife—those kinds of things we can see while walking.

The original sentence joins several ideas without a complete structure and ends with the incomplete phrase watch while. Separate the ideas into two sentences and complete the final phrase with while walking.

× Lately I did not go to anywhere to work, but I would hope to go in next year.

✓ I have not gone anywhere for a walk lately, but I hope to go next year.

Do not use to before anywhere in this sentence: go anywhere. Use for a walk to describe the purpose of going, and do not use in before a future time expression such as next year.

× Lately I did not go to anywhere to work, but I would hope to go in next year.

✓ I have not gone anywhere for a walk lately, but I hope to go next year.

For a future intention, use the simple present hope with the future time expression next year: I hope to go next year. Would hope is unnecessarily conditional here and does not fit the intended meaning.

× Lately I did not go to anywhere to work, but I would hope to go in next year.

✓ I have not gone anywhere for a walk lately, but I hope to go next year.

With lately, the present perfect is natural when talking about an unfinished recent time period: I have not gone. This connects the recent past with the present situation.
