Library— Part 1 Informe

Sugerencia: Be more direct and natural: start with a clear topic sentence about current habits (e.g. whether you go now or in college), correct grammar (use past simple/continuous appropriately), avoid redundancy, and keep answer within 2–3 sentences. Add one specific detail (how often or what you printed) using a linking word for coherence.

Ejemplo: I don't go to the library much now, but when I was at college I visited it quite often to print documents and use the computers. For example, I would go there two or three times a week to print lecture notes and search academic articles.

Sugerencia: Give a clear main idea first and then a concise supporting detail. Fix grammar and unclear phrases (e.g. “so my phone at home” is confusing). Use a linking word to connect reason and consequence (because, so). Be specific about what materials you found and how often you print.

Ejemplo: Usually I just use the library to print documents because I already have most reading materials on my phone. For instance, I print assignment sheets or articles about once a week because it is cheaper than using a private printer.

Sugerencia: Answer directly with correct tense and natural phrasing; avoid informal fillers like “to be honest” unless needed. Provide one brief supporting detail explaining why (e.g. lack of interest or access) using a linking word (because, as). Keep it to 1–2 sentences.

Ejemplo: No, I didn't go to the library when I was a child because there wasn't a public library near our home. As a result, I got most of my books from school or family members.

Sugerencia: Avoid overgeneralisation and unsupported claims. Start with a clear opinion (yes/no/it depends) and give a specific reason or example. Remove vague phrases (“I've seen a lot of kids online”) and unnecessary fillers. Use linking words (however, for example) and keep to 2–3 sentences. Be cautious about cultural stereotyping.

Ejemplo: It depends. Some Chinese children visit libraries regularly because their schools encourage reading, while others rarely go due to heavy tutoring schedules. For example, in big cities many schools organize library trips, but in rural areas access can be limited.

× Back in college I used to visit library for quite a few time, not for the purpose of reading, but just to print documents and search some things through the computer.

✓ Back in college I used to visit the library for quite a long time, not for the purpose of reading, but just to print documents and search for things on the computer.

Missing definite article before 'library' and awkward time phrase. Use 'the library' when referring to a specific place. Replace 'for quite a few time' with 'for quite a long time' and use 'search for things on the computer' for natural collocation and preposition use. Grammar problem type's ID: 22

× At the library, usually I just print documents since I have found mostly of the materials that I needed, so my phone at home.

✓ At the library, I usually just printed documents since I had already found most of the materials I needed on my phone at home.

Multiple issues: incorrect verb tense and aspect, incorrect phrase order, and incorrect use of 'mostly of'. Change to past simple/past perfect to match narrative about past habits ('used to' context). Use 'most of the materials' and place 'on my phone at home' correctly. Also move 'usually' to a natural position. Grammar problem type's ID:12

× To be honest, when I was a kid, I'd never been into a library.

✓ To be honest, when I was a kid, I had never been to a library.

Use past perfect 'had never been' is fine, but use preposition 'to' rather than 'into' for visiting a library. Contraction 'I'd' can be ambiguous; expand to 'I had' for clarity. Also 'been to a library' is the common expression. Grammar problem type's ID:5

× I think it depends because I've seen a lot of kids online, umm, especially Chinese.

✓ I think it depends because I've seen a lot of kids online, especially Chinese kids.

Add 'kids' after 'Chinese' for clarity and correct noun usage. The tense 'I've seen' (present perfect) is appropriate for recent observations; maintain it. Removing filler 'umm' improves formality. Grammar problem type's ID:6

× They are good at numbers, they are good at reading and they are good at everything they do.

✓ They are good with numbers, good at reading, and generally good at what they do.

Use 'good with numbers' (common collocation) instead of 'good at numbers'. Combine clauses for conciseness and naturalness; 'what they do' is more natural than 'everything they do'. Grammar problem type's ID:13

× Uh, so I assume that they were really good.

✓ So I assume that they are really good.

Speaker is making a current assumption about kids in general, so present tense 'are' is appropriate. 'Were' incorrectly shifts to past tense. Use present simple for generalizations. Grammar problem type's ID:5
