Walking— Part 1 Relatório

Sugestão: Be direct and concise. Start with a clear topic sentence answering the question, then add a brief specific detail. Remove filler words (umm) and correct grammar (e.g., 'I walk 15 minutes' not 'I have to work for 15 minutes').

Exemplo: Not really. I usually walk about 15 minutes on weekdays to catch the bus to my office, but I don’t walk much at other times.

Sugestão: Use correct tense and articles, and keep sentences natural. Begin with a clear statement then add one or two specific details. Use linking words like 'usually' or 'often' for clarity.

Exemplo: Yes, I often went for walks as a child. My grandfather used to take me to a nearby park for about an hour, where he would jog while I walked beside him.

Sugestão: Answer with a clear topic sentence and specific reasons. Avoid contradictions (e.g., 'no traffic' but 'nothing') and incorrect words ('restlessly' is wrong). Use linking phrases (for example, 'firstly', 'also').

Exemplo: People like walking in parks because they offer a calm, traffic-free environment for exercise and relaxation. Also, parks are family-friendly, so walkers can enjoy watching children play and feel safer.

Sugestão: Start with a direct answer and use correct verbs ('take a long walk', not 'work in a park'). Provide concise supporting reasons with linking words and avoid repetition.

Exemplo: If I had the chance, I would take a long walk in a large park because it is peaceful, has pleasant air, and is free from traffic and noise.

Sugestão: Do not ask the examiner for clarification unless necessary; try to give a reasonable interpretation and answer. If you truly do not understand, ask one brief clarifying question, then answer. Provide a short specific example of a recent walk.

Exemplo: I’m not sure what you mean, but recently I went for a short walk in the neighborhood park last Saturday to get some fresh air.

× Not really umm but my weekdays when I'm going to my office, that time I have to work for 15 minutes to catch my bus.

✓ Not really. On weekdays, when I go to my office, I have to walk for 15 minutes to catch my bus.

The student used inconsistent present tense forms and incorrect time expressions. Use simple present for habitual actions: 'On weekdays' and 'when I go'. Also 'walk' is the correct verb (not 'work') and word order is improved. Suggestion: use 'On weekdays, when I go to my office, I walk for 15 minutes to catch my bus.'

× Yes, when I was child that time my grandfather used to take me for work at least for one hour and we went on a park which is located in our area.

✓ Yes, when I was a child, my grandfather used to take me for a walk for at least an hour, and we went to a park in our area.

Missing article 'a' before 'child' and wrong verb 'work' instead of 'walk'. Use 'used to' correctly for past habitual actions. 'For at least an hour' is the idiomatic expression. Use 'go to a park' not 'on a park.' Also include commas for clarity. Suggestion: 'When I was a child, my grandfather used to take me for a walk for at least an hour, and we went to a park in our area.'

× My grandfather used to jogging and me used to walk for some time.

✓ My grandfather used to jog and I used to walk for some time.

After 'used to' the base form of the verb should be used, so 'jog' not 'jogging'. Also the subject pronoun must be 'I' not 'me'. Suggestion: 'My grandfather used to jog, and I used to walk for some time.'

× Because the park is the place where people can walk calmly and there are no traffic, no vehicles, nothing.

✓ Because parks are places where people can walk calmly, and there is no traffic or vehicles.

Using 'the park' suggests a specific park; general question asks why people like to walk in parks, so plural 'parks' is better. 'There is' agrees with uncountable 'traffic'. Use 'no traffic or vehicles' not repeating 'no'. Suggestion: 'Because parks are places where people can walk calmly and there is no traffic or vehicles.'

× So they can walk restlessly.

✓ So they can walk peacefully.

'Restlessly' means unable to relax; the intended meaning is peaceful or calmly. Use an appropriate adverb 'peacefully' or 'calmly'. Suggestion: 'So they can walk peacefully.'

× And also some, uh, children are play, play in the park so they can watch them, they can feel.

✓ Also, some children play in the park, so they can watch them and enjoy it.

Incorrect auxiliary 'are play' should be simple present 'play'. 'They can feel' is vague; better 'enjoy it' or 'feel happy'. Remove filler commas. Suggestion: 'Also, some children play in the park, so people can watch them and enjoy it.'

× If I would get chance, I would love to work in a park because the park is a peaceful area and the atmosphere of the park is very nice and also there are no traffic, no jam, no extra noise.

✓ If I got the chance, I would love to walk in a park because a park is a peaceful place and the atmosphere is very nice; there is no traffic, no jams, and little noise.

In conditional type 2, use past simple in the if-clause ('If I got the chance') not 'If I would'. 'Work' is wrong verb if meaning 'walk'. Use articles correctly ('a park', 'a peaceful place'). Use 'there is' for uncountable 'traffic' and plural 'jams'. Suggestion: 'If I got the chance, I would love to walk in a park because it is a peaceful place with little traffic or noise.'

× What do you mean by walk lately?

✓ What do you mean by 'walk lately' or 'recently'?

The student's reply is unclear; 'lately' pairs with present perfect context: better ask 'Do you mean where did I walk recently?' or 'What do you mean by "walk lately"?' Suggestion: Clarify the question: 'Do you mean where I went for a walk recently?'
