Names— Part 1 채점 보고서

제안: Try to use correct grammar and avoid redundancy. For example, say "My name doesn't have any special meaning" instead of "don't have any special meanings." Also, organise your answer clearly with a topic sentence and supporting details, and avoid unnecessary repetition.

예시: My name doesn't have any special meaning. My parents chose it because they admired a pretty actress who also sings. They hoped I would be as beautiful as her, so they named me after her.

제안: Make sure your sentences are complete and clear. Use linking words to connect your ideas smoothly. For example, you can say "I would choose names that have positive meanings and good pronunciation because I think uniqueness is very important."

예시: If I were to choose names for my children, I would select ones with positive meanings and good pronunciation because I believe having a unique name is very important.

제안: Your answer is clear but could be more concise. Avoid filler words like "umm" and use linking words to improve flow. For example, "No, no one in my family shares my name because in China, parents usually choose unique names to help their children stand out."

예시: No, no one in my family has the same name as me because in China, parents often choose unique names to help their children stand out.

제안: Avoid starting sentences with conjunctions like "And." Use clear linking words such as "In the past" and "Nowadays" to compare ideas. Also, correct grammar errors like "people are just like to choose" to "people prefer to choose."

예시: In the past, Chinese parents often chose names related to the country because of historical reasons and hopes that their children would help save the nation. Nowadays, people prefer to choose names with positive meanings that are more unique.

제안: Be careful with word choice and clarity. For example, "this kind of dance" seems incorrect. Instead, say "this kind of name." Also, provide more explanation about why these names are popular, using linking words to connect ideas.

예시: Yes, in China, some popular names like Zihan and Xiaoqian are common because they have great meanings and pleasant pronunciations. Therefore, many parents prefer to choose such names for their children.

× Actually no, my name don't have any special meanings.

✓ Actually no, my name doesn't have any special meanings.

The subject 'name' is singular, so the verb should be 'doesn't' instead of 'don't' to agree in number. This is a subject-verb agreement issue involving singular and plural forms.

× My parents chose this name because they think back in when I was born.

✓ My parents chose this name because they think back to when I was born.

The correct preposition to use with 'think back' is 'to', not 'in'. Using the wrong preposition changes the meaning and makes the sentence ungrammatical.

× They like a actress and they sing.

✓ They like an actress and they sing.

The article 'a' should be 'an' before a vowel sound as in 'actress'. Also, the sentence is unclear; assuming the intended meaning is 'They like an actress and they sing', the pronoun usage is acceptable but the article needed correction.

× The actress is very pretty.

✓ The actress is very pretty.

This sentence is correct; no correction needed.

× They want me to as pretty as the actress, so they choose this name for me.

✓ They want me to be as pretty as the actress, so they chose this name for me.

The phrase 'want me to as pretty' is missing the verb 'be'. Also, 'choose' should be in past tense 'chose' to match the past action. The preposition 'as' is correctly used in the comparison.

× When I choose the name for my next generation, I hope I will give the name a positive meaning and.

✓ When I choose the name for my next generation, I hope I will give the name a positive meaning.

The sentence ends abruptly with 'and.' Removing 'and' completes the sentence properly. The future tense 'will give' is appropriate here.

× A good pronunciation and I also hope hope my kids name to be more unique and I think it is very important.

✓ I also hope my kids' names will be more unique, and I think it is very important to have a good pronunciation.

The original sentence is fragmented and repetitive ('hope hope'). The possessive form 'kids'' is needed, and the sentence is restructured for clarity and grammatical correctness.

× I also hope hope my kids name to be more unique and I think it is very important.

✓ I also hope my kids' names will be more unique, and I think it is very important.

'Kids name' should be plural possessive 'kids' names' because it refers to the names of multiple children.

× So in my family there is not even a single person that has the same name as me because they think it is very important for their kids to stand out even for a name.

✓ So in my family there is not a single person who has the same name as me because they think it is very important for their kids to stand out even by their name.

The phrase 'not even a single person' is better expressed as 'not a single person'. Also, 'that' is better replaced by 'who' when referring to people. The preposition 'for' should be 'by' to indicate the means of standing out.

× And yes, of course, like back in the last generation, people like to choose the name that is related to the country because of the history and they hope their kids can save the country.

✓ And yes, of course, like back in the last generation, people liked to choose names that were related to the country because of history, and they hoped their kids could save the country.

The verb tense is corrected to past tense to match 'last generation'. 'Like' is changed to 'liked', 'name' to 'names' for plural consistency, and 'because of the history' to 'because of history' for natural phrasing.

× But nowadays people are just like to choose a name that have positive meaning and more unique.

✓ But nowadays people just like to choose names that have positive meanings and are more unique.

The phrase 'are just like to choose' is incorrect; it should be 'just like to choose'. Also, 'a name' changed to plural 'names' to match 'have', and 'have' corrected to 'have' for plural subject. Added 'are' before 'more unique' for correct adjective usage.

× Yes, in China there are some popular names like Zihan Xiaoqian.

✓ Yes, in China there are some popular names like Zihan and Xiaoqian.

The names 'Zihan Xiaoqian' should be separated by 'and' to indicate two distinct names, clarifying the plural subject.

× These popular names usually have a great meaning and a nice pronunciation, so parents like to choose this kind of dance.

✓ These popular names usually have great meanings and nice pronunciations, so parents like to choose this kind of name.

'A great meaning' and 'a nice pronunciation' are better pluralized to 'great meanings' and 'nice pronunciations' to match 'names'. The word 'dance' is incorrect here and should be 'name'.
