Building— Part 1 Report

Suggestion: Your answer is clear and relevant, but could be more concise and better structured. Start with a direct topic sentence, then add one or two specific supporting details using a linking word. Avoid repetition (you said tall building twice) and correct small grammar issues (e.g., “nearby my apartment” → “near my apartment”).

Example: Yes — there are many tall buildings near my apartment. For example, I live in a high-rise and from my balcony I can enjoy spectacular sunrises and sunsets that light up the city skyline.

Suggestion: The main idea is understandable but the answer is disfluent and a little awkwardly phrased. Give a clear topic sentence (Yes/No), use linking words (because/so), and avoid filler words like “umm.” Be specific about why you prefer other subjects and provide one brief example.

Example: Not really — I seldom photograph buildings because I prefer taking portraits and nature shots. For instance, I enjoy photographing people and park scenes where I can capture expressions and natural light.

Suggestion: Good choice, but improve grammar and give a specific reason or detail. Use a clear topic sentence, correct noun forms and verb tenses, and add one specific reason why you want to visit (e.g., view, history, movies).

Example: Yes, I would love to visit the Eiffel Tower in Paris because I have seen it in many films and photos. I’m especially keen to go up to the viewing platforms to see the city panorama and take photos at night when it is illuminated.

Suggestion: This answer is strong: direct and relevant. Improve by tightening phrasing, using a linking word to connect reasons, and correcting small grammar (e.g., “I’m” and “especially” placement). Limit to fewer than five sentences.

Example: Yes — I already live in a high-rise, and I prefer tall buildings because from that height I can enjoy spectacular sunrises and sunsets and a wide view of the whole city.

× Yes, there are a lot of tall buildings nearby my apartment.

✓ Yes, there are a lot of tall buildings near my apartment.

Use of prepositions: 'nearby' is an adverb meaning 'close by' and should not directly modify 'my apartment' in this noun phrase. Use the preposition 'near' before a noun: 'near my apartment.' Suggestion: Use 'near' to link location to the noun, or rephrase 'nearby my apartment' to 'near my apartment'.

× I also live in a tall building.

✓ I also live in a tall building.

This sentence is grammatically correct in present simple for a current state. No change needed. Suggestion: None.

× The views are most attractive when I see the sunrise and sunset.

✓ The views are most attractive when I see the sunrise and the sunset.

Article and adjective usage: 'sunrise and sunset' are specific events; adding 'the' makes them definite. Also 'most attractive' is acceptable but 'very attractive' or 'most attractive' depending on intended emphasis. Suggestion: Use 'the sunrise and the sunset' for clarity.

× I usually don't like to take photos of buildings, for instance.

✓ I usually don't like taking photos of buildings, for instance.

Verb + -ing form: After verbs like 'like' to express general preference use gerund 'taking' rather than the infinitive 'to take'. Suggestion: Use 'like taking' for general habits and 'like to take' for specific occasions.

× I prefer, umm, capturing. Portraits or scenery as well as animals or trees.

✓ I prefer capturing portraits or scenery, as well as animals or trees.

Fragment and punctuation: The original is a sentence fragment split incorrectly by a period. Combine fragments into one coherent sentence and remove filler or place it correctly. Suggestion: Remove the unnecessary period and filler or place filler within pauses: 'I prefer capturing portraits or scenery, as well as animals or trees.'

× Yes, I would like to visit Eiffel Tower in Paris.

✓ Yes, I would like to visit the Eiffel Tower in Paris.

Article usage: Proper nouns like 'Eiffel Tower' require the definite article 'the'. Suggestion: Use 'the Eiffel Tower.'

× I usually watched this towers in many movies, so I like to visit there.

✓ I usually saw these towers in many movies, so I would like to visit them.

Tense and number and pronoun errors combined: 'usually watched' is mismatched—'usually' pairs with present habitual 'usually see' or past 'used to see.' Also 'this towers' has number mismatch and incorrect demonstrative; use 'these towers' for plural or 'this tower' singular. 'Visit there' is awkward—use 'visit them' or 'visit it.' To express a current desire based on past exposure: 'I often saw these towers in movies, so I would like to visit them.' Suggestion: Use consistent tense and correct demonstrative/pronoun agreement.

× Actually I'm living in a high rise building right now.

✓ Actually I'm living in a high-rise building right now.

Hyphenation and tense: 'high-rise' as a compound adjective is usually hyphenated. The present continuous 'I'm living' is acceptable for temporary situation; no tense change needed. Suggestion: Hyphenate 'high-rise'.

× I prefer living in tall buildings because from this height I can enjoy especially sunset and sunrise and I can see the whole city.

✓ I prefer living in tall buildings because, from this height, I can especially enjoy the sunset and the sunrise and I can see the whole city.

Preposition and article order: Add commas to set off the phrase 'from this height.' Place 'especially' before the verb it modifies for clarity. Also 'sunset and sunrise' should take definite articles 'the' when referring to specific events. Suggestion: '...because, from this height, I can especially enjoy the sunset and the sunrise, and I can see the whole city.'
