Building— Part 1 Report

Suggestion: Be more grammatically accurate, concise and use clearer vocabulary. Start with a direct topic sentence, correct noun/adjective forms, and add one specific supporting detail using a linking word. Limit to 2–4 sentences.

Example: Yes. I live in Vancouver, and there are many tall, modern high‑rise buildings nearby. For example, some residential towers have glass facades and rooftop gardens, which give the area a spacious, contemporary feel.

Suggestion: Clarify meaning and correct word choice; avoid contradictions and strange phrases. Give a clear topic sentence, then one or two specific examples with linking words. Keep it natural and under 5 sentences.

Example: Yes, I often photograph buildings because architectural photography is one of my hobbies. For instance, I like taking photos of glass facades and rooftops, and sometimes I shoot short videos from rooftops to capture the city skyline.

Suggestion: Remove fillers, correct grammar and be more specific about why you want to visit. Use a topic sentence naming the building, then a linked reason with a concrete detail or example.

Example: Yes, I would like to visit Pacific Centre in downtown Vancouver because it is a large shopping mall housed in a tall building. For example, I want to see the indoor architecture and spend time shopping and eating with friends there.

Suggestion: Be concise and avoid repetition. State your preference clearly, then give one specific reason and a contrasting detail using a linking word. Correct grammar and remove unclear phrases.

Example: Yes, I would like to live in a tall building because I enjoy the views and modern facilities. However, I would choose a building with reliable elevators, since in my current tower the lifts are often slow or crowded.

× 'There are a lot of modern architects, high rise building.'

✓ 'There are a lot of modern buildings and high-rise apartments.'

'There are' requires plural nouns. The original mixes plural and singular ('architects' and 'building') and uses the wrong noun for structures. Use plural nouns and hyphenate high-rise.'

× 'I really love to live here because every building have their own character and especially the modern architecture, this is really spacious.'

✓ 'I really love living here because every building has its own character, and especially the modern architecture is really spacious.'

'Every building' is singular and requires the singular verb 'has' (subject-verb agreement). Use 'living' as a gerund for natural phrasing. Replace 'their' with 'its' for singular antecedent and split run-on sentence for clarity.'

× 'Definitely photographing one of my main fashion so I love to take picture.'

✓ 'Definitely photographing is one of my main hobbies, so I love to take pictures.'

'Photographing' can be a gerund but the phrase was ungrammatical and 'fashion' is wrong word choice. Use 'hobbies' (plural) and plural 'pictures'; add 'is' to complete the clause.'

× 'High res building especially.'

✓ 'Especially high-rise buildings.'

'Building' should be plural to match general statement. 'High res' is informal and unclear; 'high-rise' is the correct adjective. Place 'especially' before phrase for natural order.'

× 'I love rooftop video.'

✓ 'I love taking rooftop videos.'

The original lacks a verb form to show the activity. Use 'taking' + plural 'videos' to indicate the hobby clearly.'

× 'Every day I take a picture from my laptop.'

✓ 'Every day I take pictures from my laptop.'

Use plural 'pictures' for habitual action. Structure is present simple which is appropriate; 'from my laptop' is acceptable if meaning capturing or editing on laptop.'

× 'Yes, there are several building I would love to visit, but special one is uh, uh, Pacific Center.'

✓ 'Yes, there are several buildings I would love to visit, but the special one is the Pacific Centre.'

'Several' requires a plural noun ('buildings'). Include the definite article 'the' before 'special one' and 'the Pacific Centre' as a specific place; correct spelling of 'Centre' if referring to the Vancouver mall.'

× 'Uh, I love this to visit there mainly that is a shopping mall, also very high rise building.'

✓ 'I would like to visit it mainly because it is a shopping mall and also a very high-rise building.'

Original has awkward word order and missing modal/infinitive forms. Use 'would like to visit it' and 'because it is' to connect reasons; make nouns and adjectives agree.'

× 'There are plenty of opportunity and I spend also some time with my friend there.'

✓ 'There are plenty of opportunities and I also spend some time with my friends there.'

'Plenty of' should be followed by a plural count noun 'opportunities'. Use plural 'friends' or keep singular with article ('a friend'); move 'also' to a natural position.'

× 'Definitely, I personally prefer to live in a high rise building, although currently I live in a tall building.'

✓ 'Definitely, I personally prefer to live in a high-rise building, although I currently live in a tall building.'

Add subject 'I' before 'currently' to complete the clause. Hyphenate 'high-rise'. Tense and meaning remain present preference vs current situation.'

× 'This there is some problem like elevator is not good but I intend to.'

✓ 'There are some problems, such as the elevator not working well, but I intend to stay.'

Original mixes 'this there is' and lacks clear verb phrase. Use 'There are some problems' (plural) and 'such as' to give example. Specify 'elevator not working well' and complete idea 'I intend to stay.'
