Chatting— Part 1 採点レポート

提案: Try to avoid hesitation and filler words like 'uh' and 'I think'. Also, use more natural expressions and be concise. For example, instead of 'a distinct coffee shop or uh, I think a real taste restaurant', say 'a cosy coffee shop or a nice restaurant'.

例: Yes, I enjoy chatting with my friends during my free time, usually at a cosy coffee shop or a nice restaurant. It helps me to relax and feel at ease.

提案: Avoid filler words and be more specific. Use linking words to connect ideas smoothly. For example, say 'We discuss various topics, such as global changes, our personal lives, and children's education.'

例: We discuss various topics, such as global changes, our personal lives, and children's education, which keeps our conversations interesting and meaningful.

提案: Try to use more natural expressions and correct vocabulary. For example, instead of 'I'm not a butterfly of party' say 'I'm not a social butterfly'. Also, clarify 'PE people' or avoid unclear abbreviations.

例: Actually, I'm not a social butterfly, so I prefer chatting with just one friend rather than a large group. I believe quality conversations are better than quantity.

提案: Focus on grammar and fluency. Avoid filler words and incomplete phrases. Use linking words to explain reasons clearly. For example, 'I prefer face-to-face communication because it allows me to relax and enjoy comfortable time with my friends.'

例: I prefer face-to-face communication rather than social media because it allows me to relax and spend comfortable time with my friends.

提案: Avoid hesitation and incomplete sentences. Be clear and concise. Use linking words to explain your opinion. For example, 'No, I don't argue with friends because I believe that in our stressful society, talking calmly helps us support each other.'

例: No, I don't argue with my friends because I believe that in our stressful society, calm conversations help us support one another.

× Ah, in my opinion, I enjoy communicate face to face more than uh via social media because I need uh, take a relax and soothing time with my friends.

✓ Ah, in my opinion, I enjoy communicating face to face more than uh via social media because I need uh, to take a relaxing and soothing time with my friends.

The verb 'enjoy' should be followed by the '-ing' form of the verb, so 'communicate' should be 'communicating'. Also, 'take a relax and soothing time' is incorrect; 'relax' is an adjective here and should be 'relaxing'. Additionally, 'need' should be followed by 'to' plus the base verb, so 'need to take' is correct.

× Ah, in my opinion, I enjoy communicate face to face more than uh via social media because I need uh, take a relax and soothing time with my friends.

✓ Ah, in my opinion, I enjoy communicating face to face more than uh via social media because I need uh, to take a relaxing and soothing time with my friends.

The word 'relax' is a verb, but here it is used as an adjective modifying 'time'. The correct adjective form is 'relaxing'. Therefore, 'relax' should be changed to 'relaxing' to properly describe the time.

× I like hang out with my friends in a com comfortable.

✓ I like hanging out with my friends in a comfortable place.

The phrase 'hang out' should be in the '-ing' form after 'like', so 'like hanging out'. Also, 'in a com comfortable' is incorrect; it seems to be a typo. The correct phrase is 'in a comfortable place' or 'at a comfortable place' to indicate location.
