Building— Part 1 Report

Suggestion: Make the answer more natural, concise and better structured. Start with a clear topic sentence, avoid unclear phrases (“my home is in the short I guess”), reduce repetition, and use one or two specific supporting details with a linking phrase. Also correct grammar (e.g., plural/singular, word order) and use varied vocabulary (e.g., “surrounded by high-rise buildings,” “impressive skyline”).

Example: Yes. My neighbourhood is surrounded by high-rise buildings, so my house looks relatively low. For example, there’s a cluster of modern apartment towers just across the street, and I often enjoy watching the evening lights because the skyline looks very impressive.

Suggestion: Respond directly and avoid hesitation sounds. Use correct grammar (e.g., “an ancient building”), reduce repetition (“catchy eye catchy”), and add a linking phrase to explain when and why you take photos. Provide one specific example to make the answer concrete.

Example: Sometimes. If I see an interesting building, especially an ancient or uniquely designed modern one, I usually take a photo. For instance, when I visited an old temple last year I photographed its carved facades because the details were beautiful and hard to remember without a picture.

Suggestion: Give a clear topic sentence naming the building or city, improve grammar and chronology (“a few days ago”), and add a reason with one or two specific details (architectural features, historical significance). Use linking words (e.g., “because,” “for example”) to make your answer coherent and avoid repeating the same idea twice.

Example: Yes. A few days ago I saw a YouTube video about the Cube Houses in Rotterdam, Netherlands, and I would love to visit them. I’m fascinated by their unusual tilted-cube design and how they create interesting interior spaces, so I’d like to see the architecture and city views in person.

× Actually my home is in the short I guess, and every other buildings are really tall in heights and I really enjoy watching those high buildings.

✓ Actually my home is in the south, I guess, and every other building is really tall and I really enjoy watching those tall buildings.

Errors: 'short' should be 'south' (word choice) but that is not in the list; main grammar errors fitting the list: 'every other buildings' uses plural with 'every', which requires singular 'every other building is'; 'are really tall in heights' is incorrect: use 'is really tall' for singular and remove redundant 'in heights'. Suggestion: use 'every other building is really tall' and use 'tall buildings' or 'tall' as adjective; keep subject-verb agreement by using singular after 'every' and avoid redundant phrases.

× It's really interesting to watch and captivating as well.

✓ It is really interesting to watch and captivating as well.

The contraction 'It's' is acceptable, but not a grammar issue. The sentence is fine but to match formality use 'It is'. The classification used here is 'Verb + -ing form' because 'watch' functions as base verb after 'interesting to'. No change required to -ing form; suggestion: keep 'interesting to watch' which correctly uses infinitive structure.

× It depends.

✓ It depends.

This sentence is grammatically correct in present tense; no correction needed. It correctly answers habit or general truth.

× If I saw a ancient building, then I try to take pictures of those, uh, buildings and sometimes modern buildings are really a catchy eye catchy.

✓ If I see an ancient building, I try to take pictures of it, and sometimes modern buildings catch my eye.

Problems: 'If I saw' mixes past condition with present habitual result; use present simple 'If I see' for real conditional. 'a ancient' uses incorrect article: 'an ancient'. 'try to take pictures of those buildings' should be singular 'it' if referring to a building; or keep 'them' if plural. 'are really a catchy eye catchy' is ungrammatical—correct form is 'catch my eye' or 'are eye-catching'. Suggestions: use 'If I see an ancient building, I try to take pictures of it' or 'If I see ancient buildings, I try to photograph them' and use 'eye-catching' for adjectives.

× So I try to, uh, picture those or one of those buildings as well.

✓ So I try to photograph those or one of those buildings as well.

'Picture' as a verb meaning 'take a picture of' is informal; better verb is 'photograph' or 'take pictures of'. 'Picture those' is awkward; use 'photograph them' or 'take pictures of them'. Suggestion: use clear verb 'take pictures of' or 'photograph'.

× Yes, some days ago I saw a video in YouTube.

✓ Yes, a few days ago I saw a video on YouTube.

'Some days ago' is nonstandard; use 'a few days ago'. Preposition 'in YouTube' should be 'on YouTube' (preposition error but fits present/past context). This is primarily past tense sentence and uses past simple correctly with 'saw'. Suggestion: use 'a few days ago' and 'on YouTube'.

× I am very much captivated by a building in Netherlands.

✓ I am very captivated by a building in the Netherlands.

Preposition/article errors: 'in Netherlands' needs the definite article 'the Netherlands'. 'Very much captivated' is acceptable but 'very captivated' or 'really captivated' is more natural. Suggestion: use 'by a building in the Netherlands' or 'by a building in the Dutch city of X' for clarity.

× I just love their architecture and the building is just awesome in the view.

✓ I just love its architecture, and the building simply looks awesome.

Problems: 'their architecture' refers to plural 'they' but 'a building' is singular, so use 'its architecture' (pronoun agreement—fits ID 12 but primarily adjective/adverb and pronoun). 'awesome in the view' is unnatural; use 'looks awesome' or 'is an awesome sight'. Suggestion: match pronoun to singular noun and use natural adjective phrase.

× The view is really amazing.

✓ The view is really amazing.

This sentence is correct and matches present-tense description; no change needed.
