Travelling— Part 1 Báo cáo

Gợi ý: Your answer is natural and communicates enthusiasm, but it is a little wordy and contains hesitations and repetition ("nature" used several times). To improve, make a clear topic sentence, avoid filler words, use one or two specific details, and vary vocabulary. Use a linking phrase to add a supporting detail.

Ví dụ: Yes, I usually look out of the window when I travel because I enjoy observing landscapes. For example, I like noticing differences in vegetation and architecture between countries, such as palm trees and narrow streets, which tell me a lot about local life.

Gợi ý: Good content but repetitive and contains hesitations and vague phrases ("maybe", "if I like it"). To improve, give one clear reason and a specific example of what you photograph and why. Reduce fillers and organize with a linking phrase.

Ví dụ: Yes, I often take photos from the car, especially of interesting buildings and coastal views. For instance, I photographed an ornate cathedral and a vivid sunset over the sea last summer because they captured the character of the place.

Gợi ý: Your answer answers the question but is indecisive and repetitive with hesitations. To improve, state a clear preference or explain why you like both, then expand with one specific reason using linking words. Keep it concise (2–3 sentences).

Ví dụ: I prefer the sea because I love the colors and the calming atmosphere. For example, watching the horizon where the sea meets the sky during sunset relaxes me and creates memorable photo opportunities.

× Yes, I do it a lot.

✓ Yes, I do that a lot.

The original sentence uses the pronoun 'it' vaguely; while not strictly a verb-ing error, the list requires selecting only listed types. A clearer correction is replacing 'it' with 'that' to refer to looking out the window. Suggestion: use 'that' or repeat the action (e.g., 'Yes, I often look out the window') for clarity. Note: This entry is categorized under 'Verb + -ing form' to follow the provided list, but the correction addresses pronoun clarity.

× When I travel, I like to watch out from the window, see the nature, absorb the nature and how the nature is different from my country.

✓ When I travel, I like to look out of the window, see nature, absorb the scenery and notice how it is different from my country.

Preposition 'from' after 'watch out' is incorrect; the correct phrase is 'look out of the window' or 'look out the window'. 'See the nature' and 'absorb the nature' are unnatural; use 'see nature' and 'absorb the scenery'. Also simplify 'how the nature is different from my country' to 'how it is different from my country' for clarity.

× Yes, I do uh, when I see the buildings or if I like the architecture structure of a building or maybe nature, if I like it, the flowers, the trees, the sky or maybe a beautiful sea.

✓ Yes, I do, uh, when I see buildings or if I like the architectural structure of a building or natural scenes, such as flowers, trees, the sky, or a beautiful sea.

Use 'see buildings' rather than 'see the buildings' for generality. 'Architecture structure' is redundant; use 'architectural structure' or simply 'architecture'. 'Maybe nature, if I like it' is awkward; replace with 'natural scenes'. Also improve punctuation for natural speech.

× If I see those kind of things, I like to take photos.

✓ If I see those kinds of things, I like to take photos.

The phrase should be 'those kinds of things' or 'that kind of thing'. 'Those kind of things' mixes plural demonstrative 'those' with singular 'kind'. Use 'those kinds' to match plural.

× I think I like them both.

✓ I think I like both.

'Them' is unnecessary after 'like both'. Use 'both' alone as the object. Alternatively, specify 'I like both the mountains and the sea.' for clarity.

× Uh, mountains can be interesting.

✓ Mountains can be interesting, too.

Add 'too' or connect to previous thought to show comparison with the sea. Original is not ungrammatical but improving sentence structure makes it sound more natural in context.

× The color of the sea might be interesting to me.

✓ The color of the sea might interest me.

Use the verb 'interest' rather than 'be interesting to me' for a more natural expression. Both are grammatically correct, but the correction is more concise and idiomatic.

× Or umm, maybe when the color of the sea and also the sky, if they meet together, it can look very beautiful.

✓ Or maybe when the colors of the sea and the sky meet, it can look very beautiful.

Original has awkward conjunctions and redundant words ('also', 'if', 'together'). Use 'colors' plural to match sea and sky, remove unnecessary 'if' and 'together', and streamline the clause: 'when the colors... meet'.
