Reading— Part 1 Report

Suggestion: Improve grammar and sentence structure, use a clear topic sentence and up to two supporting sentences. Correct verb forms, add linking word and avoid minor repetition.

Example: Yes, I enjoy reading; it's one of my favourite hobbies. It helps me relax and escape stress, so I often read before bed to unwind.

Suggestion: Make sentences more concise and grammatically correct, use linking words to connect reasons, and choose precise vocabulary (e.g. concentrate on, because).

Example: I prefer reading on paper because I enjoy the smell and feel of a real book, and I find it helps me concentrate better than reading on a screen.

Suggestion: Fix phrasing and article use, use a clear contrasting linking phrase, and provide one specific example to support the contrast.

Example: I need to read carefully for exams or study articles to understand details and avoid missing key points. By contrast, I only skim advertisements or social media posts because I only need the main idea.

Suggestion: Correct small grammar errors and tighten expression. Use linking words and provide a specific example with correct article use and verb forms.

Example: I prefer detailed reading because I like gaining in-depth knowledge and learning new things; for example, when I read nonfiction books or academic articles, I focus on details to fully understand the ideas.

× Yes I do actually reading is one of my favorite hobbies.

✓ Yes, I do. Actually, reading is one of my favorite hobbies.

Missing punctuation and incorrect sentence separation made 'reading' appear as a verb attached to 'do'. Split into two sentences and add commas to clarify meaning; keep present simple 'is'.

× It's help me relax and it's a good way to escape from stress.

✓ It helps me relax and it's a good way to escape from stress.

Subject 'It' requires third person singular verb form 'helps'. Use 'helps' instead of 'help' for correct subject-verb agreement.

× I often reading before I go to bed.

✓ I often read before I go to bed.

After adverb of frequency 'often' use base form 'read', not the -ing form. Change 'reading' to the base verb 'read' to form a correct present simple sentence.

× Well, I prefer to read on paper 'cause I love the smell of the paper and I like holding a real book.

✓ Well, I prefer to read on paper because I love the smell of paper and I like holding a real book.

Avoid informal contraction ' 'cause' in formal responses; use 'because'. Also use 'paper' without definite article when speaking about the material generally: 'the smell of paper'.

× And I think reading on paper is helping concentrate what I'm reading right now.

✓ And I think reading on paper helps me concentrate on what I'm reading right now.

Use simple present 'helps' for habitual or general truths rather than 'is helping' unless emphasizing a current action. Also include the object 'me' and preposition 'on' before the clause 'what I'm reading'.

× When I take reading, test or study technique articles, I need to read carefully to understand the details and avoid missing important information.

✓ When I read tests or study technique articles, I need to read carefully to understand the details and avoid missing important information.

Phrase 'take reading' is incorrect. Use 'read' with plural objects 'tests' and 'study technique articles'. This fixes verb choice and sentence structure to match intended meaning.

× By contrast, I usually skim advertisements or social media posts because I only need the main idea, not very detailed.

✓ By contrast, I usually skim advertisements or social media posts because I only need the main idea, not very detailed information.

The phrase 'not very detailed' lacks a noun; add 'information' to complete the thought and make the contrast clear.

× I prefer detailed reading because I like gaining in depth knowledge and learn something new.

✓ I prefer detailed reading because I like gaining in-depth knowledge and learning something new.

Use hyphenated adjective 'in-depth' before 'knowledge'. After 'like' with two verbs, keep parallel structure: use gerund forms 'gaining' and 'learning'.

× For example, when I read non fiction books or article for study, I enjoy concentrating on details and understanding the idea fully.

✓ For example, when I read non-fiction books or articles for study, I enjoy concentrating on details and fully understanding the ideas.

Use hyphen 'non-fiction'. Match plural 'books' with plural 'articles'. Add article agreement and make verbs parallel: 'concentrating' and 'fully understanding'. Use plural 'ideas' to match 'details' or keep singular consistently; here plural is more natural.
