Reading— Part 1 Relatório

Sugestão: Be more concise and avoid hesitations and repetition. Start with a clear topic sentence, then give one or two specific examples and a short reason. Correct small grammar mistakes (e.g., "an amazing book") and avoid filler words like "uh" and repeating words.

Exemplo: Yes, I enjoy reading. I read books, articles and sometimes research papers; recently I finished The Power of Your Subconscious Mind by Joseph Murphy, which I found very insightful because it explains how beliefs influence behaviour.

Sugestão: Give a clear topic sentence and two concise reasons linked with a linking word. Watch grammar: use singular/plural correctly ("paper" or "printed books"), and avoid informal phrases like "kind of."

Exemplo: I prefer reading printed books rather than on a screen because I find the texture of paper relaxing, and prolonged screen use strains my eyes and often gives me headaches.

Sugestão: Give a clear contrast using linking words ("However" or "On the other hand") and be specific about the second example. Remove hesitations and fix grammar ("the teacher" → "I" or "it is"; "it's need to be" → "it doesn't need to be").

Exemplo: I need to read carefully when I prepare lesson plans because I must understand every detail to explain it correctly to my students. However, if I'm reading general articles while commuting, I usually skim them because I only need the main idea.

Sugestão: Begin with a clear topic sentence, then describe your strategy step by step using linking words. Avoid hesitations and unclear words (e.g., "UMM", "paragraph 1st"). Use correct grammar ("scanning first" and "then detailed reading").

Exemplo: It depends on my goal. For exams like the IELTS, I scan the passage first to get an overview, and then I read in detail to answer specific questions; this approach helps me manage time and focus on key information.

× Recently I have, uh, read a book named The Power of your Subconscious Mind by Murphy.

✓ Recently I have read a book called The Power of Your Subconscious Mind by Murphy.

This sentence uses the present perfect tense correctly, but 'read' as past participle is fine; main issue is word choice and title formatting. Replace 'named' with 'called' and capitalize title words. Also remove unnecessary filler 'uh' and extra comma. Suggestion: use 'have read' for recent experience and 'called' for the book title.

× I, I forgot the the whole name, but yeah, it was amazing book.

✓ I forgot the whole name, but it was an amazing book.

Duplicate 'I' and 'the the' are errors; article missing before 'amazing book'. Correct structure removes repetition, fixes article 'an' before a vowel sound, and removes filler 'yeah'. Suggestion: say 'I forgot the whole name' and 'it was an amazing book.'

× I would like to read on papers as compared to screen because I'm kind of old school and the touch of paper feels me relax and screen gives me headaches so continuous watching on screen strain my eyes.

✓ I prefer reading on paper compared to a screen because I'm kind of old-fashioned, and the touch of paper helps me relax; looking at a screen continuously strains my eyes and gives me headaches.

Use singular 'paper' to mean reading on paper in general; 'prefer' is more natural than 'would like' in comparisons. 'Old school' is informal; 'old-fashioned' fits. 'Feels me relax' is incorrect; use 'helps me relax'. 'Continuous watching on screen' is awkward; use 'looking at a screen continuously'. Subject-verb agreement: 'strains my eyes'. Also add article 'a' before 'screen.'

× It depends on the situation. Sometimes I prepare lesson plans for my students and I need to read each detail carefully because then I have to explain the same thing in the classroom and it's important the teacher knows everything.

✓ It depends on the situation. Sometimes I prepare lesson plans for my students, and I need to read every detail carefully because I have to explain the same things in the classroom, so it's important that the teacher (I) knows everything.

Minor issues: 'each detail' is better as 'every detail'; sentence is long and needs commas. 'It's important the teacher knows everything' is ambiguous—likely speaker means 'it's important that I, as the teacher, know everything.' Clarify pronoun to avoid confusion. Suggest breaking long sentences and using 'that' after 'important.'

× On the other hand, uh, general science on the road it's need to be.

✓ On the other hand, general reading or simple science information on the go does not need to be read so carefully.

Original is fragmented and ungrammatical. 'On the road' is informal for 'on the go.' 'It's need to be' is incorrect; use 'does not need to be' (negative) or 'doesn't need to be read carefully.' Clarify meaning: contrasting detailed lesson-plan reading with casual reading of general science while traveling.

× It depends on the reason behind why I'm reading. If it's for an exam like IELTS exam, I would definitely try to scan UMM paragraph 1st and then go for the detailed example because then scan one give me an idea what it is about.

✓ It depends on the reason why I'm reading. If it's for an exam like the IELTS, I would definitely scan the paragraph first and then read in detail, because scanning gives me an idea of what it is about.

Remove redundant 'behind' in 'reason behind why.' Use 'the IELTS' with article. 'Would definitely try to scan UMM paragraph 1st' contains fillers and wrong order; use 'scan the paragraph first.' 'Detailed example' should be 'read in detail.' Subject-verb agreement: 'scan one give me' should be 'scanning/scans gives me' or 'scanning gives me'; here use 'scanning gives me an idea' or 'because scanning gives me an idea.' Recommended: 'scan... first' then 'read in detail.'
