Chatting— Part 1 채점 보고서

제안: Your answer is generally clear and natural, but avoid redundancy such as "discuss about" (should be "discuss") and try to be more concise. Also, use linking words to connect ideas smoothly, for example, "Usually, we meet on weekends over a cup of tea or coffee, where we talk about the week's events and sometimes work."

예시: Yes, I enjoy chatting with friends a lot. Usually, we meet on weekends over a cup of tea or coffee, where we talk about the week's events and sometimes work. Overall, it's a fun and relaxing time.

제안: Your answer covers various topics but is somewhat repetitive and lacks linking words. Try to organise your points with linking phrases like "For example" or "In addition" and avoid repeating "we talk about". Also, be more specific about the topics.

예시: We chat about many things. For example, we discuss work, family matters, and sometimes politics. In addition, we talk about environmental issues like climate change caused by pollution.

제안: Your answer is understandable but could be clearer and more structured. Avoid starting sentences with "Well" and use linking words like "however" to contrast ideas. Also, explain why you prefer personal interactions.

예시: I prefer chatting one-on-one because it allows for more personal and meaningful conversations. However, discussing with a group is also important for sharing different perspectives.

제안: Your answer is good but a bit long and could be more concise. Use linking words like "although" and "for example" correctly and avoid run-on sentences. Also, clarify your preference with reasons.

예시: I prefer face-to-face communication because it feels more personal. Although social media like WhatsApp makes connecting easy, I find in-person talks more effective for important conversations.

제안: Your answer has some grammar issues and unclear phrases like "arguments at the part of friendship." Try to use clearer sentences and linking words like "although" and "sometimes." Also, explain the role of arguments in friendship more clearly.

예시: Yes, I sometimes argue with friends, although I don't like it. However, these arguments help us correct each other and strengthen our friendship.

× Most of the time we connect on weekends over a cup of tea or coffee and we discuss a lot about the entire week.

✓ Most of the time we connect on weekends over a cup of tea or coffee and we discuss a lot about the entire week.

The phrase 'discuss a lot about' is incorrect because 'discuss' does not require the preposition 'about'. The correct usage is 'discuss the entire week' without 'about'. However, since the instruction is to only correct mistakes that meet the listed grammar problem types and 'Incorrect use of prepositions' is listed, this correction applies here.

× Sometimes we also discuss about the work, but overall it is the fun.

✓ Sometimes we also discuss the work, but overall it is fun.

The verb 'discuss' should not be followed by the preposition 'about'. Also, 'the fun' is incorrect; it should be 'fun' without 'the'. The preposition error is corrected here as per the instructions.

× Sometimes we talk about politics and different climate changes happening because of the pollution.

✓ Sometimes we talk about politics and different climate changes happening because of pollution.

The phrase 'because of the pollution' is better expressed as 'because of pollution' since 'pollution' is an uncountable noun here and does not need the definite article 'the'. This is an incorrect use of prepositions and articles combined, but focusing on prepositions as per instructions.

× So there are many topics we talk about.

✓ So there are many topics we talk about.

This sentence is grammatically correct and does not require correction.

× Well, I prefer having personal interactions, although it is also very important to discuss with many people at the same time.

✓ Well, I prefer having personal interactions, although it is also very important to discuss with many people at the same time.

The phrase 'discuss with many people' is acceptable, so no correction is needed here.

× But sometimes it is important to just discuss personally.

✓ But sometimes it is important to just discuss personally.

This sentence is correct and does not require correction.

× I prefer to communicate face to face, although nowadays it is very easy for us to connect via social media and I do use them, for example WhatsApp, but if it is something where we really have to sit and talk, I would prefer that.

✓ I prefer to communicate face to face, although nowadays it is very easy for us to connect via social media and I do use them, for example WhatsApp, but if it is something where we really have to sit and talk, I would prefer that.

The sentence is grammatically correct with appropriate prepositions.

× Yes, I do argue with friends sometimes, although it is not something I like, but I cannot help it.

✓ Yes, I do argue with friends sometimes, although it is not something I like, but I cannot help it.

This sentence is correct and does not require correction.

× Sometimes if they go wrong or if I am going wrong they do correct me.

✓ Sometimes if they go wrong or if I am going wrong, they do correct me.

A comma is needed before 'they do correct me' to separate the clauses properly, which is a sentence structure issue but not listed for correction. Prepositions are used correctly here.

× So arguments at the part of friendship.

✓ So arguments are part of friendship.

The original sentence lacks a verb and has incorrect prepositional phrase 'at the part of friendship'. The corrected sentence includes the verb 'are' and uses the correct phrase 'part of friendship'. This is a sentence structure error as per the provided list.
