Views— Part 1 Report

Suggestion: Be more direct and specific. Give a clear topic sentence that answers the question, then add one brief reason or example. Avoid vague phrasing like “such as motivational pictures” without explaining what you mean.

Example: Yes, I enjoy taking photos of different views. For example, I often photograph sunrise cityscapes because the light and colors feel inspiring and motivational.

Suggestion: Expand slightly with a reason and a linking word to make your answer more natural and informative. Keep it short (1–3 sentences) and use linking words like “because” or “so”.

Example: I prefer urban areas because there are many interesting buildings and lively streets. For instance, I like photographing architecture and busy markets to capture the city’s energy.

Suggestion: Correct grammar and be specific. Start with a clear statement, then give one concise reason and an example. Avoid repetition and incorrect structures (e.g., “another countries” → “other countries”).

Example: I prefer views in other countries because they often offer different landscapes and cultures. For example, I enjoyed the natural scenery in Canada, where vast lakes and forests provided unique photo opportunities.

× I like another countries because it is a very beautiful, its environment is very beautiful that that's why I like it.

✓ I like other countries because they are very beautiful and their environments are very nice, so that's why I like them.

The student used incorrect pronouns and agreement: 'another countries' should be 'other countries' (incorrect quantifier/pronoun form) and is plural, so use plural verbs and pronouns ('they', 'are', 'their'). The sentence also had repetition and awkward phrasing; combine ideas with 'and' and use 'so' for the reason clause. Suggestion: Use 'other' with plural nouns, match subject and verb number, and use plural pronouns ('they/them/their') for countries.

× I like pictures such as motivational pictures.

✓ I like pictures, such as motivational ones.

The phrase repeats 'pictures' unnecessarily; when referring back to a noun, use a pronoun or 'ones' to avoid repetition. Also adding a comma before 'such as' improves clarity. Suggestion: Use 'such as' with examples and replace repeated noun with 'ones' for conciseness.

× America such as Canada.

✓ For example, countries like Canada and the United States.

This fragment lacks a verb and proper structure; it seems to attempt to give examples. Fragments must be integrated into the previous sentence or rewritten as a full clause. Suggestion: Start with 'For example' or 'Such as' followed by plural nouns and, if needed, include the full noun phrase 'countries like...' to make a complete sentence.

× I like urban areas.

✓ I prefer urban areas.

The question asked 'Do you prefer views in urban areas or rural areas?' so the verb 'prefer' fits the prompt better than a general 'like.' Using 'prefer' keeps the tense and meaning aligned with the question. Suggestion: Mirror the verb from the question when answering preference questions for clarity.
