Library— Part 1 Relatório

Sugestão: Give a concise direct topic sentence, then add one or two brief supporting details using linking words. Avoid long, run-on phrasing and check prepositions and tense. Be natural: say how often and why, and offer a short comment about possible changes.

Exemplo: Not often — I rarely go to the library because my current schedule is very hectic. However, I try to visit once every few months when I have a free weekend to borrow books or study in a quiet place.

Sugestão: Start with a clear topic sentence naming main activities, then give specific examples and correct word choices. Use linking words (for example, besides, sometimes) and avoid repetition. Also fix incomplete phrases (e.g., 'story books in' → 'storybooks there').

Exemplo: I usually read a mix of materials in the library. For example, I read newspapers for current affairs, non-fiction books for research, and novels for relaxation. Sometimes I also read children's storybooks there when I want something light.

Sugestão: Answer directly and clearly with correct tense and time reference. Avoid uncertain verbs like 'probably' when you can be specific. Use linking phrase to add a brief detail (what you did there as a child).

Exemplo: Yes, I did. I started visiting the library when I was about seven years old and I often borrowed picture books and comics to read at home.

Sugestão: Give a clear general statement, then support it with specific reasons or examples and use linking words. Avoid sentence fragments (e.g., begin the second sentence with a linking word). Add brief details about frequency or types of activities.

Exemplo: Yes, many Chinese children visit libraries regularly. For example, they often go after school to read storybooks, borrow books, or do homework in a quiet environment.

× Hardly ever since these days I stay quite busy with my hectic schedule which leaves no extra time at all.

✓ I hardly ever go these days because I am quite busy with my hectic schedule, which leaves no extra time at all.

The original sentence has awkward word order and tense usage. Use 'I hardly ever go these days' to express present frequency and connect cause with 'because'. Use present continuous 'am...busy' and keep relative clause 'which leaves no extra time at all' to refer to the schedule's effect. Suggestion: Place frequency adverb close to the verb and use a clear conjunction for cause.

× I usually read several materials in the library.

✓ I usually read several materials in the library.

This sentence is acceptable, but 'materials' is vague; consider 'reading materials' or specific items. No grammatical article error requires correction per list. Suggestion: Use 'reading materials' or list specific items (newspapers, journals).

× For instance, I read newspaper as well as documentaries and also novels.

✓ For instance, I read newspapers, documentaries, and novels.

'Newspaper' should be plural when speaking generally, and items in a list need commas and parallel structure. 'Documentaries' and 'novels' are fine; remove redundant 'also' and use commas to separate items. Suggestion: Make list items parallel and pluralize countable nouns when generalizing.

× Apart from that, sometimes I enjoy reading story books in.

✓ Apart from that, sometimes I enjoy reading story books in the library.

The preposition 'in' is left without an object; it should specify location 'in the library'. This is a sentence structure issue caused by omission. Suggestion: Complete prepositional phrases by adding the object (the library).

× As far as I remember, I probably started going to library at a very young age, which I think would be nearly a decade ago.

✓ As far as I remember, I probably started going to the library at a very young age, which I think was nearly a decade ago.

'Library' requires the definite article 'the' here. Also, 'would be nearly a decade ago' is incorrect tense/modal usage; use simple past 'was' or 'it was nearly a decade ago' to state a past time estimate. Suggestion: Use 'the library' for a specific place and use past tense to locate past events.

× Yes, many Chinese kids do visit the library quite frequently. Especially they go to the library after school to read story books or do homework.

✓ Yes, many Chinese kids do visit the library quite frequently. They especially go to the library after school to read story books or do homework.

Starting a sentence with 'Especially' as a fragment is stylistically awkward; combine or restructure. Move 'especially' before the verb phrase and ensure subject and verb are linked. 'Story books' can be 'storybooks' or 'story books' — both are acceptable. Suggestion: Place adverb 'especially' within the clause and avoid sentence fragments.
