Reading— Part 1 Report

Suggestion: Improve clarity, grammar and coherence. Start with a clear topic sentence, avoid filler sounds (uh), correct word choices (e.g., 'fantastic' → 'fantasy', 'real romantic' → 'romance', 'broaden my horizons', 'help me succeed'), and keep to 2–3 supporting sentences. Use linking words (for example, because) to connect ideas.

Example: Yes, I enjoy reading. I like a range of genres, especially historical, fantasy and romance, because each gives me different perspectives. For example, history teaches me about past events while fiction improves my imagination and empathy.

Suggestion: Make a direct comparison with a clear topic sentence and two concise supporting points using linking words (on the one hand / on the other hand). Remove hesitations and incorrect phrases. Use precise vocabulary (concentrate → focus, feel the smell → enjoy the smell). Keep to 2–3 short sentences.

Example: I prefer reading on paper. On the one hand, a paper book helps me focus and I enjoy turning the pages and the smell of the paper. On the other hand, I sometimes use a screen because it is easy to search for information quickly.

Suggestion: Give a direct answer with specific examples of situations requiring careful reading (legal documents, instructions) versus casual reading (news, social media). Fix grammar (reading carefully is useful, gives opportunities) and avoid repetition. Use linking words like 'for example' and 'however'.

Example: You need to read carefully when the text is important, for example legal contracts, work emails or medicine instructions, because mistakes can have serious consequences. However, casual reading such as social media posts or headlines does not usually require that level of attention.

Suggestion: Answer directly: state preference and justify with clear, specific reasons and examples. Use correct vocabulary (scanning for gist/overview, detailed reading for deep understanding). Avoid vague expressions and filler. Use linking words (because, for example, therefore).

Example: I prefer detailed reading for most books because it helps me understand the author’s ideas and emotions fully. However, I also use scanning when I need to find specific information quickly, for example when researching a topic or checking the table of contents.

× Yeah, I actually like reading, uh, different types of books such as historical, fantastic, even real romantic, but it helps me broaden my horizon, uh, and it gives me knowledge that I can success in the future.

✓ Yeah, I actually like reading different types of books such as historical, fantasy, and realistic romance, because they help me broaden my horizons and give me knowledge so I can succeed in the future.

The sentence uses incorrect adjective forms (fantastic -> fantasy; real romantic -> realistic romance) and singular/plural words (horizon -> horizons). 'It helps' and 'it gives' refer to 'books' (plural), so use 'they' and plural verbs 'help' and 'give'. 'Can success' is incorrect verb form; use the verb 'succeed'. Suggestions: choose correct noun/adjective forms, ensure pronoun agreement with plural subjects, and use correct verb forms after modal verbs.

× I prefer bars on the on hand reading on the paper, you can concentrate the pages, turning on the pages and they can, uh, feel the smell, uh, on the other hand, uh, reading on the screen, you can search any information in the in the screen. You can turn it on, turn it off in the to the.

✓ I prefer reading on paper because you can focus on the pages, turn them, and even smell the paper. On the other hand, reading on a screen lets you search for information quickly and turn the device on and off.

Multiple article and word-choice errors: 'the on hand' and 'in the in the screen' are incorrect. 'Bars' is wrong word. Use 'reading on paper' (no article) and 'a screen' or 'the device' for general reference. 'Concentrate the pages' should be 'focus on the pages'; 'turning on the pages' -> 'turn them'; 'feel the smell' -> 'smell the paper'. Also clarify 'turn it on, turn it off'. Suggestions: simplify structure, use correct articles ('a', 'the' or none) and correct verbs and collocations.

× I think reading carefully are uh, useful things that gives opportunity in the future.

✓ I think reading carefully is a useful habit that gives opportunities in the future.

Subject-verb agreement and noun choice errors: 'reading carefully' is a singular gerund phrase, so use singular verb 'is' not 'are'. 'Useful things' is awkward; 'a useful habit' fits context. 'Gives opportunity' should be plural or countable: 'gives opportunities' or 'gives the opportunity'. Suggestions: match verb number to subject, choose appropriate nouns, and keep singular/plural consistency.

× I think reading books is also one step in the future. Umm, I think every uh, person should read their books carefully and understand.

✓ I think reading books is also a step toward the future. I think every person should read books carefully and try to understand them.

Pronoun and article issues: 'one step in the future' is awkward; 'a step toward the future' is clearer. 'Every person' is singular, so using 'their books' is informal singular 'they'—acceptable in modern usage but here better to avoid ambiguity: 'every person should read books carefully and try to understand them.' Also 'read their books' implies possession; simpler 'read books' suffices. Suggestions: ensure pronoun references are clear and use plural nouns or rephrase to avoid singular they in formal corrections.

× As I said before, I prefer both because scanning is just for fast weather and I'm not one of them.

✓ As I said before, I prefer both because scanning is just for getting information quickly and I'm not against it.

'Fast weather' is incorrect collocation; likely intended 'for fast reading' or 'for getting information quickly'. 'I'm not one of them' is unclear. Use 'I'm not against it' or 'I'm not a fan of only one method.' Suggestions: replace incorrect collocations with correct verb+adverb structures ('getting information quickly') and clarify the stance.

× I like this favorite reading. They can understand carefully and then know feelings by after.

✓ I prefer detailed reading because you can understand carefully and then grasp the emotions afterwards.

Awkward phrasing and incorrect pronoun: 'I like this favorite reading' is ungrammatical; 'I prefer detailed reading' fits. 'They can understand carefully' misuses 'they'—should refer to 'you' or 'one' or 'you can'. 'Know feelings by after' is incorrect word order; use 'grasp the emotions afterwards'. Suggestions: use clear subject pronouns and natural adverb placement ('understand something carefully', 'afterwards').

× The scanning is also very important because it's a year.

✓ Scanning is also very important because it is quick and efficient.

'It's a year' is nonsensical here; likely speaker meant 'it's quicker' or 'it's quicker for finding information'. Replace with clear adjective such as 'quick' or 'efficient'. Also article 'the scanning' unnecessary; simply 'scanning'. Suggestions: choose appropriate adjectives and remove unnecessary articles.
