Reading— Part 1 Informe

Sugerencia: Be more concise and correct grammar. Start with a clear topic sentence, then give one or two specific supporting details using linking words. Avoid repetition and fix tense and article errors (e.g., 'during my school years', 'as soon as I graduated'). Keep to under five sentences.

Ejemplo: Yes, I enjoyed reading a lot while I was at nursing college because it was a required part of the course, so I read textbooks and medical articles regularly. However, after I graduated I read less because I was busy working. Recently I have started reading again to prepare for the IELTS.

Sugerencia: Give a direct answer first and then one or two clear reasons with coherent linking words. Correct phrasing (e.g., 'I prefer reading on a screen because it's convenient') and avoid filler phrases. Be specific about convenience or drawbacks.

Ejemplo: I prefer reading on a screen because it's very convenient — I can access texts on my phone anytime and anywhere. In contrast, printed books can be bulky and I might misplace them at home.

Sugerencia: Provide a clear topic sentence answering both parts, then give specific examples and use linking words like 'when' and 'whereas'. Correct vocabulary (e.g., 'carefully' and 'not carefully') and remove unclear words ('Karpoli'). Keep sentences grammatically correct and concise.

Ejemplo: I need to read carefully when I am preparing for an important exam, such as my US RN licensing test, because I must understand specific facts and procedures. Whereas, I don't read as carefully when I'm reading novels for pleasure, because I focus more on the story than on exact details.

Sugerencia: Answer directly, then contrast the two methods with clear linking words. Use correct collocations ('detailed reading' or 'in-depth reading', 'scan' or 'scanning') and avoid redundancy. Give a brief example of when you use each method.

Ejemplo: I prefer detailed reading when studying for important exams because I need to understand precise information and remember facts. However, for novels I often just scan or skim to get the general idea and enjoy the plot.

× 'I used to like reading when I was in my secondary years of college because it's mandatory to my course as a nurse during in my school years to to read more during our school days.'

✓ 'I used to like reading when I was in my secondary years of college because it was mandatory for my nursing course during my school years to read more.'

'Singular and plural issue: "years" is fine but "it's mandatory to my course as a nurse" uses incorrect preposition and agreement. Change "it's" to "it was" to match past reference. Use "for my nursing course" instead of "to my course as a nurse" and remove duplicated words. Ensure subject and verb tense agree with the past context.'

× 'So I read a lot during those time.'

✓ 'So I read a lot during those times.'

'Past tense issue / Singular and plural issue: "those time" is ungrammatical because "those" requires a plural noun. Use "those times" to match the plural demonstrative and maintain past tense consistency.'

× 'But when I soon as I graduated I stopped reading.'

✓ 'But as soon as I graduated, I stopped reading.'

'Past tense issue: Word order and connector are incorrect. Use the fixed phrase "as soon as" and add a comma after the subordinate clause. The past tense "graduated" and "stopped" agree.'

× 'But lately since I'm studying for IELTS.'

✓ 'But lately I have been studying for the IELTS.'

'Present tense issue: The fragment is incomplete and uses simple present where present perfect continuous is more natural for an ongoing action that started recently. Use "I have been studying" and include the article "the" before IELTS.'

× 'I prefer to read on the screen because it's accessible to me to to read anytime and anywhere using my phone, especially while reading on the paper is also there's about possibility that I can able to to miss it somewhere in my house or.'

✓ 'I prefer to read on a screen because it is accessible; I can read anytime and anywhere on my phone. Reading on paper also has the possibility that I might misplace it somewhere in my house.'

'Incorrect use of prepositions / Sentence structure errors: Use "on a screen" or "on my phone" rather than "on the screen" in general preference. Remove duplicated words and split run-on sentence into two sentences. Use "misplace" instead of "miss it" and "might" for possibility. Ensure correct articles and prepositions.'

× 'I need to read Karpoli if I'm studying for the specific exam I remember the few months ago.'

✓ 'I need to read carefully if I am studying for a specific exam, like the one I took a few months ago.'

'Sentence structure errors: "Karpoli" appears to be a typo for "carefully". The original sentence mixes tenses and is unclear. Use "if I am studying" for conditional present and clarify the reference to the past exam with "like the one I took a few months ago." Add commas for clarity.'

× 'I need to read carefully and study more what I read to my US RN exam and I'm not refocusing if it's not really that important like reading novels.'

✓ 'I need to read carefully and study more when I prepare for my US RN exam, and I do not concentrate as much if it is not very important, such as when reading novels.'

'Present tense issue / Incorrect use of prepositions: Use "when I prepare for" instead of "to my" and "do not concentrate as much" instead of "I'm not refocusing." Use "such as" for the example and avoid contractions for clarity. Ensure tense consistency.'

× 'I think that is the differences.'

✓ 'I think that is the difference.'

'Sentence structure errors / Singular and plural issue: Use singular "difference" to match "that is". Alternatively say "those are the differences." Keep number agreement between subject and noun.'

× 'When I'm studying to the important exam, I prefer to detail reading while scanning because if I'm studying I need to to see the important and specific details compared to scanning.'

✓ 'When I am studying for an important exam, I prefer detailed reading rather than scanning, because I need to see important and specific details.'

'Verb + -ing form / Incorrect use of prepositions: Use "studying for" not "studying to" and "detailed reading" (adjective) rather than "detail reading." Use "rather than" for contrast, remove duplicated words, and simplify phrase order for clarity.'

× 'I can do that when I'm reading only novels, that's not very important for studying and that's it.'

✓ 'I can do that when I am only reading novels; that is not very important for studying.'

'Sentence structure errors: Separate clauses properly with a semicolon or period. Move "only" to modify "reading" correctly and remove the informal "and that's it." Keep tense consistent.'
