Views— Part 1 採点レポート

提案: Your answer is brief and grammatically incorrect. Say the sentence in present tense and add one or two specific reasons or examples to expand naturally. Use linking words if adding details.

例: Yes, I enjoy taking pictures of different views because I like capturing the atmosphere of a place. For example, I often photograph city skylines at sunset to capture the changing colors.

提案: You asked for repetition instead of attempting an answer. When you need clarification, say it politely, then answer the question. Use a clear topic sentence and one supporting detail or example with a linking word.

例: Could you please repeat the question? I prefer rural views because they are peaceful and full of natural details; for instance, I enjoy photographing rolling hills and quiet lakes.

提案: Again you asked for repetition but did not answer. When you don't understand, request clarification, then give a direct response with a reason. Keep responses concise (no more than five sentences).

例: Could you repeat that, please? Generally, I prefer views in other countries because they offer different landscapes and cultural scenes; for example, I loved photographing coastal towns when I visited Spain.

× Yes, I liked.

✓ Yes, I like (taking pictures).

The examiner asked a general preference in the present tense ('Do you like taking pictures...'). The student used the past tense 'liked', which incorrectly shifts the time reference. Use the simple present 'like' to express habitual or general preferences. If the student intends to say they used to like it but not now, they should say 'I liked it' and add context. Otherwise, use 'I like' or 'Yes, I do.' Suggested improvement: practice matching verb tense to question tense; for preference questions starting with 'Do you...' respond in present simple.

× Sorry, do you say again?

✓ Sorry, could you say that again?

The original sentence is ungrammatical in English word order and missing appropriate modal phrasing for polite requests. Use the modal 'could' or 'can' and the correct word order 'could you say that again' or 'can you say that again' to form a polite request. Also include 'that' to refer to the previous question. Suggested improvement: use set phrases for clarification requests such as 'Could you repeat that, please?' or 'Sorry, could you say that again?'

× Sorry.

✓ Sorry, could you repeat the question?

A single-word 'Sorry.' is incomplete as a clarification response; it does not clearly request repetition. Use a full sentence with a modal verb and an object to make the request polite and clear, e.g., 'Sorry, could you repeat the question?' or 'Sorry, I didn't catch that.' Suggested improvement: learn and use common clarification phrases to respond naturally in conversation.
