Building— Part 1 Báo cáo

Gợi ý: Be more natural and concise: start with a clear topic sentence, correct basic grammar (use 'Are there' vs 'Is there', and 'I live' not 'I'm living' in this context), avoid filler words (umm) and unnecessary repetition. Add one specific detail to support your answer and use a linking word if needed.

Ví dụ: Yes. I live in Daan District in Taipei, so there are many tall buildings near my home. For example, several residential towers and office blocks surround my street, which makes the area feel very urban.

Gợi ý: Make the answer direct and grammatically correct, remove fillers, and give a specific reason and an example. Use a linking phrase to contrast the general habit with exceptions (e.g., 'but', 'however').

Ví dụ: Not really. I don't usually take photos of buildings, but I will if a building looks unusual or historic. For example, I might photograph a modern skyscraper with a striking design when I visit a new city.

Gợi ý: Begin with a clear statement, avoid hesitation, and give a specific reason why you want to visit. Limit to two to three short sentences and use a linking word to explain reason or intention.

Ví dụ: Yes, I would like to visit Taipei 101. Although I live in Taipei, I have never been there, and I want to see the observation deck and the city views when I get the chance.

Gợi ý: Answer directly, use correct grammar and avoid colloquial contractions like 'wanna'. Provide a clear reason and one specific example or consequence. Use linking words (because, so) to connect ideas and limit repetition.

Ví dụ: No, I wouldn't like to live in a tall building because Taiwan has frequent earthquakes. For example, I'm worried that being high up would feel unsafe and it might be harder to evacuate quickly in an emergency.

× Is there's many tall buildings near my home?

✓ Are there many tall buildings near my home?

The original mixes 'Is' with 'there's' creating an ungrammatical structure. For existence questions use 'Are there' with plural nouns. Use 'Are there' + plural noun to form correct question: 'Are there many tall buildings near my home?'

× Since I'm living in Taipei City, Umm and Daan district, there's plenty of tall buildings near my home.

✓ Since I live in Daan District in Taipei City, there are plenty of tall buildings near my home.

Use simple present 'I live' for a general fact rather than present continuous 'I'm living.' 'Daan district' should be 'Daan District' and the order 'Daan District in Taipei City' is clearer. 'There's' is singular; with 'plenty of tall buildings' use plural verb 'there are.'

× I don't usually take photos of building UMM unless it's very unique or something I never seen before UMM ex.

✓ I don't usually take photos of buildings unless a building is very unique or something I have never seen before.

Use plural 'buildings' when speaking generally. 'It's very unique' is acceptable but 'a building is very unique' is clearer. The clause 'something I never seen before' needs present perfect 'I have never seen' to show life experience up to now.

× Except that I don't take pictures of the building.

✓ Apart from that, I don't take pictures of most buildings.

The original 'Except that' is awkward here. 'Apart from that' or 'Besides that' fits better. Also specify 'most buildings' to match intended meaning rather than 'the building.'

× it's funny even that I'm living in Taipei City, I never visit Taipei 101.

✓ It's funny that even though I live in Taipei City, I have never visited Taipei 101.

Use simple present 'I live' for a general state. For experience up to now use present perfect 'have never visited' rather than simple past or present. Also reorder to 'even though' for correct concessive structure.

× And if it's, if there's opportunity, I'll, I think I would like to visit Taipei 101 in the near future.

✓ If there's an opportunity, I think I would like to visit Taipei 101 in the near future.

Include the article 'an' before 'opportunity.' Remove disfluencies and repeated conjunctions. 'If there's an opportunity' is the correct existential form.

× No, I don't wanna live in a tall building since Taiwan have a lot of earthquakes.

✓ No, I don't want to live in a tall building since Taiwan has a lot of earthquakes.

Use standard 'want to' rather than colloquial 'wanna' in formal responses. Subject-verb agreement: 'Taiwan has' (singular subject requires 'has').

× I think living in tall buildings make me feel uncomfortable and uncertain and I just kind of worry about when earthquake happened.

✓ I think living in tall buildings makes me feel uncomfortable and anxious, and I worry about when an earthquake might happen.

Subject-verb agreement: 'living... makes' (singular gerund subject). 'Uncertain' is unnatural to describe feelings—'anxious' is better. Use 'worry about when an earthquake might happen'—add article 'an' and use 'might happen' for possibility instead of past 'happened.'

× People live in tall buildings will have some dangerous.

✓ People who live in tall buildings may face some dangers.

The original lacks a relative pronoun and has wrong noun form. Use 'People who live in tall buildings' and 'may face' for possibility. 'Dangers' (plural noun) is correct instead of adjective 'dangerous.'
