Reading— Part 1 Report

Suggestion: Be more concise and avoid repetition. Start with a clear topic sentence, then add one or two specific supporting details (what you read and when). Use linking words to connect ideas (e.g., "However," "Also"). Aim for 3–4 sentences and correct small grammar errors (e.g., "when I'm not doing anything," "during my free time").

Example: Yes, I enjoy reading. I usually read during my free time, especially in summer break when I have more time. I like fiction and young adult novels because they help me relax and escape into different worlds.

Suggestion: Good clear opinion and reason. Remove fillers like "umm" and avoid repeating the preference sentence. Add one specific example or minor elaboration and use a linking phrase (e.g., "because" or "for example"). Keep to 2–3 sentences.

Example: I prefer reading on paper because screens often show notifications that distract me. For example, when I read on my phone I find myself checking messages, so paper books help me concentrate better.

Suggestion: Clarify and reorganize the answer. Start with a direct topic sentence that contrasts the two situations, then give specific examples and use linking words (e.g., "when" vs "when not"). Correct grammar ("looking for something", "use critical thinking", "skim" vs "scan"). Keep to 3–4 sentences and avoid confusing phrasing.

Example: You should read carefully when you need to understand details or find specific information, such as when studying for an exam or reading a legal document. In contrast, when you read for enjoyment, like a novel or a magazine, you can skim or read more casually to get the general idea.

Suggestion: Good structure and clear contrast. Make the phrasing smoother and more precise: use "scan" vs "read in detail", correct small errors ("reviewing quickly, for example," "dive deep into a topic"). Add a brief concrete example to show you understand both methods.

Example: It depends. I usually scan when I'm searching for a specific fact or reviewing notes before a quiz. But I read in detail when I need to fully understand a topic, for example when preparing a research essay.

× Personally, I like reading when I'm not doing things or when I'm when I have a leisure time I read.

✓ Personally, I like reading when I'm not doing anything or when I have leisure time, I read.

Incorrect use of 'doing things' and 'a leisure time'—'doing anything' is more natural in negative context; 'leisure time' is uncountable so no article 'a' is needed. Also sentence run-on required comma to separate clauses. Suggestion: use 'anything' for negative contexts and drop 'a' before uncountable nouns.

× But since there's school right now I'm only reading when there's free time.

✓ But since there is school right now, I'm only reading when there is free time.

Contractions are acceptable but ensure full form clarity and punctuation. 'There's' is fine but using 'there is' is clearer; missing comma after introductory clause. Suggestion: add comma after introductory clause and maintain consistent form.

× But if there's no school or it's a summer break, I read every day.

✓ But if there is no school or it's summer break, I read every day.

'It's a summer break' is unnatural; use 'it's summer break' or 'it's the summer break'. Also maintain consistent 'there is' form. Suggestion: remove unnecessary article or add 'the' if referring to a specific break.

× Personally, I prefer to read on paper because reading on a screen has a lot of distractions, umm notifications that can pop up.

✓ Personally, I prefer to read on paper because reading on a screen has a lot of distractions, like notifications that can pop up.

Missing preposition 'like' before example; filler 'umm' should be removed in written form. Suggestion: use 'like' to introduce examples and remove hesitations in formal responses.

× You need to read carefully when you're finding for something, to use your critical thinking skills in your eyes, to skim through the information and find what you're looking for, and when not when you're just reading leisurely.

✓ You need to read carefully when you're looking for something, to use your critical thinking skills, to skim through information and find what you're looking for, and when not, when you're just reading leisurely.

Incorrect verb 'finding for' should be 'looking for' or 'finding'. Phrase 'in your eyes' is unnecessary and unclear. 'Skim through the information' can be 'skim through information' (no article). Also sentence was run-on and needed commas to separate ideas. Suggestion: replace 'finding for' with 'looking for', remove unclear phrases, and add punctuation to separate clauses.

× It depends on the situation because I prefer scanning when I'm just looking for something or reviewing quickly for an example that is coming in.

✓ It depends on the situation because I prefer scanning when I'm just looking for something or reviewing quickly for an upcoming example.

Phrase 'reviewing quickly for an example that is coming in' is awkward. Use 'upcoming example' or 'an upcoming test/example' to convey intended meaning. Suggestion: simplify and use 'upcoming' to modify 'example'.

× I read detail if I have time to dive deep to this topic.

✓ I read in detail if I have time to dive deep into this topic.

Missing preposition 'in' in 'read in detail'; incorrect preposition 'to' should be 'into' after 'dive deep'. 'Detail' needs article or 'in detail'. Suggestion: use 'read in detail' and 'dive deep into'.
