Building— Part 1 Relatório

Sugestão: Be more concise and direct: start with a clear topic sentence about whether tall buildings are near your home, then give one or two specific supporting details. Use linking words like "however" or "and" to connect ideas and avoid minor grammar errors (e.g., "this kind of place" → "places").

Exemplo: Yes, there are some tall buildings near my home, but they are mostly commercial, such as a mall and a bank. However, many people in my neighborhood prefer older, low-rise houses like three-storey buildings, and I like those quieter, traditional places too.

Sugestão: Organize your answer: give a clear topic sentence then provide a specific example with concise details and a closing remark. Avoid repetition ("breathtaking" and "spectacular") and incomplete sentences. Mention the reaction of others fully.

Exemplo: Yes, I enjoy photographing buildings as a hobby because I like unusual architectural designs. For example, when I visited Lakey I saw an inverted house that looked astounding, so I took several photos and posted them online; my family admired them and asked questions about the place.

Sugestão: Answer directly and add a clear reason and a brief plan. Avoid repeating adjectives and finish sentences completely. Use linking words like "because" and "so" to show cause and effect.

Exemplo: Yes, I would like to visit the inverted house in Leki because it is unique—everything inside is turned upside down. I have watched many videos and taken photos online, so I want to see it in person and photograph it myself when I go there.

Sugestão: Provide a concise topic sentence and two clear reasons with linking words. Avoid unfinished sentences and small grammar mistakes (e.g., "there is a long waiting queue" → "there is often a long queue for the elevator").

Exemplo: No, I would not want to live in a tall building. Firstly, in an emergency there is often a long queue for the elevator, which could be risky, and secondly I suffer from fear of heights, so living high up would make me uncomfortable.

× Yes, in my area we have high rise buildings, but they are usually for commercial purposes like the mall and the bank.

✓ Yes, in my area we have high-rise buildings, but they are usually for commercial purposes, like shopping malls and banks.

Use 'high-rise' with a hyphen as a compound adjective. 'The mall and the bank' is too specific; use plural nouns 'shopping malls and banks' to match 'buildings' and general meaning. Also add a comma before the example for clarity.

× Then there are people who like houses that are a bit old, like let's say a three story building.

✓ Then there are people who like houses that are a bit old, like, let's say, a three-story building.

Add commas around 'let's say' as a parenthetical phrase. Use a hyphen in the compound adjective 'three-story.'

× I actually like this kind of places as well.

✓ I actually like these kinds of places as well.

Subject 'this kind of places' mixes singular 'this' with plural 'places.' Use plural demonstrative 'these' and plural 'kinds' to agree with 'places.'

× Like there was a time I went to Lakey and I saw an inverted house.

✓ Once, I went to Lakey and saw an inverted house.

The sentence is grammatically acceptable but wordy. Replace 'Like there was a time' with 'Once' and drop the second 'I' for smoother past narration. No tense change required.

× So I took pictures of it and posted on the Internet.

✓ So I took pictures of it and posted them on the Internet.

Include the object 'them' after 'posted' to specify what was posted. Use 'on the Internet' which is correct preposition use.

× I also sent them to my family and they were.

✓ I also sent them to my family, and they were impressed.

The original sentence ends abruptly with 'they were.' Add a complement (e.g., 'impressed') to complete the clause and convey meaning.

× Yes, I want to visit the inverted house in Leki.

✓ Yes, I want to visit the inverted house in Lakey.

This corrects the place name to match earlier mention 'Lakey.' It's not a grammatical category from the list but addresses consistency; preposition 'in' is correct.

× I've seen so many pictures and videos of it and I just want to have my own experience and document it.

✓ I've seen so many pictures and videos of it, and I just want to have my own experience and document it.

Add a comma before the coordinating conjunction 'and' joining two independent clauses. The verb forms are correct.

× I can't wait to go there like I might be there in.

✓ I can't wait to go there; I might be there soon.

The original sentence is incomplete and awkward ('in' hanging). Replace with 'I might be there soon' to complete the thought and maintain future-in-near context.

× No, I don't want to live in a tall building.

✓ No, I don't want to live in a tall building.

Sentence is correct; no change needed. Included for completeness.

× That's my last option because in times of emergency and there is a long waiting queue for the elevator, I wonder how I'm going to get to my destination in time.

✓ That's my last option because in times of emergency, if there is a long waiting queue for the elevator, I wonder how I'm going to get to my destination in time.

The original joins clauses incorrectly. Add 'if' to introduce the conditional 'if there is a long waiting queue' and a comma after the introductory phrase. This fixes sentence structure and clarity.

× I'm also very scared of heights.

✓ I'm also very scared of heights.

Sentence is correct; no change needed. Included for completeness.

× That's another big reason that I don't want to live in a tall building.

✓ That's another big reason I don't want to live in a tall building.

Remove 'that' to make the sentence more natural; both forms are grammatical, but omitting 'that' is stylistically smoother.

× What else I also think.

✓ What else? I also think…

Original is a sentence fragment and unclear. Split into a short question 'What else?' followed by 'I also think…' to indicate the speaker is about to add another reason. Ensure completion in actual speech by finishing the thought.
