Hallo Tinibini

So, ich versuch jetzt mal dir früh am Morgen zu helfen

Einmal gibt es Tipps zum Freien Schreiben allgemein hier.
Um einen Text interessant und abwechslungsreich zu gestalten, ist es von Vorteil, wenn man keine Wortwiederholungen drinnen hat, deswegen hier auch eine Liste mit Synonymen.
Und vielleicht hilft dir auch noch der folgende Link weiter, was Konjunktionen und so angeht
Du sollst über einen Park in den USA schreiben? Meinst du damit eine Grünanlage oder einen Vergnügunspark? Wenn das zweitere gemeint ist, musst du ja schon da gewesen sein, um wenigstens ein bisschen etwas von dem Feeling da zu übermitteln Find ich zumindest.

Alles Liebe,
Manhattan

hey Trinibini

I hope I can help you ... here are some important contents of a report in english.

First you have to give an introduction

for example:
The aim/purpose of this report is to ...
This report sets out to ...

Then you should give findings

for example:
My research into ... found ...
... clearly shows that ...
It became clear that ...

After that, you should draw a conclusion

for example:
On balance, ...
It was concluded/decided that ...
No conclusion were reached regarding the ...

and at last you have to give recommendations

for example:
We advice you to ...
It is recommended / suggested that ...


To keep an interesting report going you can use the following useful phrases:

Contrasting ideas like, However, although, despite/in spite of, while/whereas ...
Linking cause and effekt like, because of, as a result of, this means, therefore ...
Summary like To summarise, in summary
Comparing ideas like, both/neither, like/unlike, in comparison (with), more/less ...
Adding ideas like, furthermore, moreover, in addition, as well as, also ...

This is also a part of my forthcoming Cambridge exam.

Hope this helps you!

All the best
