Reading— Part 1 Informe

Sugerencia: Be more direct and concise: start with a clear topic sentence (e.g. "I'm not a big fan of reading") then give one or two specific reasons with linking words. Reduce hesitations and grammar errors (e.g. use 'I can see the benefits of reading' and correct verb forms). Aim for 2–3 sentences and include a specific example to make it concrete.

Ejemplo: I'm not a big fan of reading, but I can see its benefits. For example, reading academic articles has improved my study results by helping me understand theories better, and reading news online keeps me informed about current events.

Sugerencia: Give a clear topic sentence stating your preference, then explain two specific advantages using linking words (e.g. 'first' and 'second') and finish with a brief closing statement. Correct awkward phrasing ('generation Z' → 'I'm from Generation Z') and avoid trailing off.

Ejemplo: I'm from Generation Z, so I prefer reading on a screen. First, I can highlight unfamiliar words easily; second, I can search terms instantly to clarify meaning. For these reasons, digital reading is more convenient for me.

Sugerencia: Start with a concise topic sentence like 'It depends on the purpose.' Then give two contrasting specific examples with linking words ('for example' and 'however') and correct phrases ('highlight keywords'). Reduce filler words and make sentences complete and grammatically correct.

Ejemplo: It depends on the purpose of reading. For example, for academic projects you must read carefully and highlight keywords to understand arguments; however, when reading for pleasure you can read casually and focus on enjoyment.

Sugerencia: Give a clear topic sentence ('It depends on the task') followed by specific conditions and use linking words ('if', 'however') to connect ideas. Avoid casual fillers like 'umm' and 'gonna'; use formal alternatives ('I will'). Provide a short example of each case.

Ejemplo: It depends on the task. If I'm reading for academic purposes, I read in detail to understand concepts, though I may scan when I'm short on time; however, for stories I prefer to read the whole text carefully to enjoy the plot.

× I would say I'm not a big fan of reading but I I can't see the benefit of reading can improving me in term of umm academic performance and also in the general, uh, information and general knowledge.

✓ I would say I'm not a big fan of reading, but I can see the benefits of reading for my academic performance and for general knowledge.

The original sentence has redundancy ('I I'), incorrect modal structure ('can't see the benefit of reading can improving me'), wrong verb form ('improving' after 'can'), incorrect preposition ('in term of'), and awkward phrasing ('in the general, information and general knowledge'). Corrected version removes repetition, uses proper verb forms and prepositions, and makes the meaning clear. Suggestion: keep clauses concise, use 'benefit(s) of reading', use 'for' to indicate purpose, and use base or gerund forms appropriately (e.g., 'benefits of reading for my academic performance').

× So since I'm a generation ZI prefer a screen, especially on the digital screen.

✓ Since I'm from Generation Z, I prefer a screen, especially a digital one.

Errors include incorrect phrase 'a generation ZI' and repeated or wrong article 'the digital screen'. Use the idiomatic expression 'from Generation Z' and replace 'the digital screen' with 'a digital one' to refer back to 'screen'. Also capitalize 'Generation Z'. Suggestion: use correct noun phrases for generations and use pronouns/adjectives to avoid repetition.

× It's helped me to, uh, like highlight all the work that I don't even know and also I can search it immediately during I read the book and it's.

✓ It helps me highlight unfamiliar words or information, and I can search for them immediately while I read.

Problems: wrong tense ('It's helped me' vs present habit), filler words, awkward phrasing ('all the work that I don't even know'), incorrect clause 'during I read the book', and trailing 'and it's.' Corrected version uses present simple for habitual actions, clearer nouns ('unfamiliar words or information'), and correct subordinate clause 'while I read'. Suggestion: use 'while' for simultaneous actions and present simple for habits.

× For example, if you read for your academic, uh, projects, you need to read it carefully and highlight the keyword in there.

✓ For example, if you read for your academic projects, you need to read carefully and highlight the keywords.

The phrase 'your academic, uh, projects' is awkwardly split and 'read it carefully' incorrectly uses object 'it' when referring to reading material in general. 'Keyword' should be plural if multiple are expected. Removed filler and tightened expression. Suggestion: drop unnecessary articles and fillers, use plural 'keywords' when appropriate, and avoid redundant pronouns.

× But if you read it like the for pleasure, you don't need to read it.

✓ But if you read for pleasure, you don't need to read carefully.

Errors: extra article 'the' before 'for pleasure', repeated 'read it' creating ambiguity. The intended contrast is about reading carefully vs casually. Correction clarifies that reading for pleasure doesn't require careful reading. Suggestion: use 'for pleasure' without articles and specify the adverb 'carefully' to clarify what is not needed.

× If I read it for, umm, academic, I'm gonna read it for detail and sometimes it can be scanning as well because we have a time constraint on that.

✓ If I read for academic purposes, I read in detail, and sometimes I scan because we have time constraints.

Problems: informal 'gonna', inconsistent tense ('I'm gonna read' vs general habit), missing plural in 'time constraint', and awkward 'it can be scanning'. Use present simple for habitual actions, formal 'read in detail' and 'scan', and plural 'time constraints'. Suggestion: avoid colloquial contractions in formal speech and use present simple for routines.

× But uh, if I read a storytelling, I prefer read for full.

✓ But if I read a story, I prefer to read it fully.

Errors: 'a storytelling' is incorrect noun choice; use 'a story'. Missing infinitive 'to' after 'prefer' and incorrect adverb 'for full' should be 'fully' or 'to the end'. Corrected sentence uses correct noun, 'prefer to', and adverb form. Suggestion: use 'story' for narrative texts and 'prefer to + verb' structure.
