Reading— Part 1 Informe

Sugerencia: Be more concise and correct small grammar errors. Start with a clear topic sentence, then add one specific supporting detail. Avoid repetition and unnecessary fillers.

Ejemplo: Yes, I love reading. I read a lot as a child and continued at university, where I read both academic texts and novels. For example, last semester I read three contemporary novels and a book of poems, which helped me relax and broaden my vocabulary.

Sugerencia: Give a direct preference sentence, explain one clear reason with a linking phrase, and avoid spoken fillers like 'you know'. Correct minor phrasing issues.

Ejemplo: I prefer reading on paper. Although I own a Kindle and use it sometimes, I find physical books more enjoyable because holding the pages and the texture of paper makes reading more immersive.

Sugerencia: Answer the question directly and use precise examples. Use linking words ('for example', 'however') correctly and avoid repetition. Fix grammar (e.g., 'pay careful attention').

Ejemplo: I need to read carefully when I'm working or studying a specific topic. For example, at university I had to pay careful attention to research articles to understand methods and results. However, when I'm reading for pleasure I read more casually and skip passages I find less interesting.

Sugerencia: Give a concise preference statement, avoid repeating the same idea, and use clearer linking phrases. Remove filler phrases and improve sentence structure.

Ejemplo: I prefer detailed reading because it lets me notice subtle details and understand characters better. For instance, when I read a novel slowly I can appreciate the author's style and make stronger emotional connections with the story.

× I used to read a lot when I was a child and then when I was in the university, I started reading new books for theoretic books or just for storybooks.

✓ I used to read a lot when I was a child, and then when I was at university, I started reading new books for theoretical study or just storybooks.

The original mixes awkward phrasing and word choice. Use 'at university' (natural collocation) instead of 'in the university'. 'Theoretic books' is incorrect; use 'theoretical' as the adjective and clarify 'for theoretical study' or 'textbooks'. Also add a comma before 'and then' to join clauses. Maintain past tense consistently.

× And it was a really time, really good time.

✓ It was a really good time.

The original repeats 'time' and uses an extra 'really' awkwardly. Remove redundancy: 'It was a really good time' is clear and grammatically correct. Avoid starting sentences with conjunction 'And' in formal speech, though it's acceptable in spoken language.

× And yeah, I really enjoy reading novels, poetry and many different kinds of books.

✓ I really enjoy reading novels, poetry, and many different kinds of books.

No tense error but punctuation and leading 'And yeah' is colloquial; removing 'And yeah' makes the sentence cleaner. Add a serial comma for clarity. The present tense 'enjoy' is appropriate for a general preference.

× I have a Kindle and I like reading there, but recently I discovered that I prefer reading in paper because for me it's a very good experience just feeling the paper in my hands, you know, It's just a very, very sensorial experience, a very good.

✓ I have a Kindle and I like reading on it, but recently I discovered that I prefer reading on paper because for me it's a very good experience to feel the paper in my hands; it's a very sensory experience.

Use 'on it' for devices and 'on paper' as the correct prepositional phrase. 'Reading there' is incorrect. 'Sensorial' is uncommon; use 'sensory'. Replace 'feeling' with infinitive 'to feel' for parallel structure. Remove redundant 'a very good' at the end and use a semicolon or period to separate clauses.

× I think I need to read carefully when I am working and when I'm studying on a specific topic.

✓ I think I need to read carefully when I am working and when I'm studying a specific topic.

'Studying on a specific topic' is nonstandard; say 'studying a specific topic' or 'studying a particular topic'. Tense is present for general statements and is appropriate. Remove unnecessary preposition 'on'.

× For example, when I was in the university, I needed to be really carefully and paid too much attention.

✓ For example, when I was at university, I needed to be really careful and pay a lot of attention.

Use 'careful' (adjective) not 'carefully' (adverb) after 'be'. 'Payed' was not used but 'paid' needs correct verb form parallel: 'needed to be careful and pay' keeps structure consistent. Replace 'too much attention' with 'a lot of attention' for natural phrasing. Also use 'at university'.

× But on the other hand, when I'm just reading for fun, I can be more more free, more relaxed.

✓ But on the other hand, when I'm just reading for fun, I can be freer and more relaxed.

Use the comparative 'freer' rather than 'more free'. Remove the duplicated 'more'. The present tense 'I'm' and modal 'can be' are appropriate for habitual or potential states.

× I think I prefer detailed reading because I have the opportunity to pay attention to the details and I like that even though if I'm reading a novel or just a relaxing reading, I like to pay attention to the details and, you know, connect with the story.

✓ I prefer detailed reading because it gives me the opportunity to pay attention to details, and I like that even if I'm reading a novel or something just for relaxation; I enjoy connecting with the story.

The original is repetitive and contains awkward clauses ('even though if' is incorrect). Use 'even if' not 'even though if'. Replace 'a relaxing reading' with 'something just for relaxation' or 'reading for relaxation'. Remove repeated 'pay attention to the details'. Use semicolon or separate clauses to improve flow and avoid repetition.
