List— Part 1 採点レポート

提案: Your answer is clear and relevant, but try to avoid filler words like 'umm' and redundant phrases such as 'buy this buy those items'. Also, use linking words to make your response more coherent. For example, you can say, 'Yes, I definitely make a list before shopping because I often miss some items; as a result, I have to return to the shop later.'

例: Yes, I definitely make a list before shopping because I often forget some items. As a result, I have to return to the shop later to buy them, so making a list helps me avoid this.

提案: Your answer is good but can be improved by avoiding filler words like 'umm' and by using linking words to connect ideas smoothly. Also, try to be more specific about how making lists helps you. For example, you can say, 'Yes, I make a list of small tasks daily, and this method helps me stay organized and manage my time effectively.'

例: Yes, I make a list of small tasks daily, and this method helps me stay organized and manage my time effectively by allocating specific time slots for each task.

提案: Your answer is somewhat unclear due to filler words and incomplete sentences. Try to express your ideas more clearly and use linking words to explain reasons logically. For example, you can say, 'Some people dislike making lists because they prefer flexibility and do not want to be restricted by deadlines.'

例: Some people dislike making lists because they prefer flexibility and do not want to be restricted by deadlines, which allows them to complete tasks at their own pace.

提案: Your answer is relevant but can be improved by removing filler words and adding linking words to show contrast clearly. For example, you can say, 'When I was young, I used to make lists on paper; however, since starting work, I prefer using my phone for convenience.'

例: When I was young, I used to make lists on paper; however, since starting work, I prefer using my phone for convenience and easy access.

× I do umm, miss out some items and then I need to again go back to the shop some other day to buy this buy those items.

✓ I do umm, miss out some items and then I need to again go back to the shop some other day to buy these items.

The phrase 'this buy those items' is incorrect because 'this' is singular and 'those' is plural, and 'buy' is repeated unnecessarily. The correct plural demonstrative pronoun 'these' should be used to refer to multiple items, and the repeated 'buy' should be removed for clarity.

× I generally create small tasks each day and I try to complete it by the end of the day.

✓ I generally create small tasks each day and I try to complete them by the end of the day.

The word 'tasks' is plural, so the pronoun referring to it should also be plural. Using 'it' (singular) is incorrect; 'them' (plural) should be used to maintain agreement.

× And yes, this does work for me as I have it all organized and umm have specified amount of time for a specific task.

✓ And yes, this does work for me as I have it all organized and umm have a specified amount of time for a specific task.

The phrase 'have specified amount of time' is missing the article 'a' before 'specified amount'. In English, singular countable nouns require an article or determiner.

× I generally make list, but yes, I do know some people who do not like making lists.

✓ I generally make lists, but yes, I do know some people who do not like making lists.

The phrase 'make list' is incorrect because 'list' is countable and should be pluralized as 'lists' when speaking generally.

× So my guess would be they, umm, they do like to, uh, do it, uh, vaguely so that, you know, they can, umm, complete it way past the time.

✓ So my guess would be they, umm, they do like to, uh, do it, uh, vaguely so that, you know, they can, umm, complete it way past the deadline.

The phrase 'way past the time' is vague and unidiomatic. The correct prepositional phrase is 'way past the deadline' to indicate completing something after the expected time.

× Because when you create tasks, you have, you have a time bound and.

✓ Because when you create tasks, you have, you have a time bound and.

This sentence is incomplete and ends abruptly. It should be completed for clarity, for example: 'Because when you create tasks, you have a time bound and need to complete them within it.' However, since the instruction is only to correct grammar mistakes listed, and this is a sentence structure issue, no correction is applied here.

× Uh, when I was young I did make this on the paper, but uh, since I joined work I always use my phone to make a shopping list.

✓ Uh, when I was young I did make this on paper, but uh, since I joined work I have always used my phone to make a shopping list.

The phrase 'did make this on the paper' is awkward; 'on paper' is the correct expression. Also, 'since I joined work I always use my phone' mixes past and present tenses incorrectly. The present perfect tense 'have always used' is appropriate to indicate an action continuing from the past to the present.
