聊天— Part 1 評分報告

建議: Reduce repetition and tighten phrasing; begin with a direct topic sentence, then add one or two specific supporting details using a linking word. Keep to no more than 4–5 sentences and correct small hesitations.

範例: Yes, I enjoy chatting with my friends. For example, I meet my high school friends once a year to catch up on work and family news, and we spend time sharing memories. Those reunions always make me feel connected and refreshed.

建議: Clarify unclear vocabulary ("currency situations" seems wrong) and avoid grammar mistakes (advice is uncountable). Start with a clear topic sentence, then give two specific examples with a linking word to show coherence.

範例: We usually talk about personal matters. For instance, we discuss our current jobs and future plans, and we share problems we face at work; we always give each other advice and emotional support.

建議: Avoid trailing off and small grammatical errors ("each others", incomplete sentence). Keep answers concise: topic sentence + one or two supporting details with linking words. Use singular/plural forms correctly.

範例: I prefer chatting in a group. I've known these five friends for about 20 years, so our conversations are lively and full of inside jokes, and we also update one another on our current lives.

建議: Good clear structure and specific detail. Improve minor grammar ("in different places", "people's expressions") and merge ideas more smoothly with linking words to avoid short choppy sentences.

範例: I prefer face-to-face communication because it's more personal and I can read people's expressions. However, since my friends live in different places, we use social media and hold a group video call once a week to stay close.

建議: Remove extraneous words ("Ends Of"), correct pronoun shifts (your→our) and verb agreement (argument→arguments strengthen). Start with a direct statement, then explain with one clear example and a consequence using linking words.

範例: Yes, we sometimes disagree about plans or relationships. However, we don't take it personally; instead, we discuss our differences calmly, which often strengthens our friendship.

× I enjoy chatting with my friends, especially my high school friends who I who I haven't seen for a long time.

✓ I enjoy chatting with my friends, especially my high school friends whom I haven't seen for a long time.

The sentence repeats 'who I' and uses 'who' where the objective pronoun 'whom' is more appropriate because it is the object of 'haven't seen'. Remove the duplicate and use 'whom' to be grammatically correct. Suggestion: use 'whom' after a verb when referring to the object (or rephrase to 'who I haven't seen' in informal speech).

× We make a point of meeting once a year to catch up on work and updates on our family lives and to share memories, which always makes me feel connected and refreshed.

✓ We make a point of meeting once a year to catch up on work and family updates and to share memories, which always makes me feel connected and refreshed.

The original phrasing 'catch up on work and updates on our family lives' is repetitive. Combining 'family updates' makes the structure parallel and clearer. Maintain parallel structure when listing items after 'catch up on'.

× My friends and I talk about a lot of personal things such as our currency situations, our work and future plans and the problems we are facing with that topic.

✓ My friends and I talk about many personal things such as our current situations, our work and future plans, and the problems we are facing in those areas.

'Currency situations' is likely a wrong word choice for 'current situations'. Also use 'many' with countable plural 'things'. 'Problems we are facing with that topic' is awkward; use 'in those areas' to refer back to the listed topics. Ensure consistent parallel items and clear reference words.

× We always share our advices and support to each other.

✓ We always share our advice and support with each other.

'Advice' is an uncountable noun, so 'advices' is incorrect. Use 'advice' (no plural). Also use the correct preposition 'with' rather than 'to' when indicating reciprocal actions: 'support each other' or 'support with each other' but best 'share... with each other.'

× I prefer chatting with the group because I've known these friends for about 20 years and we're very close.

✓ I prefer chatting with the group because I've known these friends for about 20 years and we're very close.

This sentence is acceptable, but if referring to a specific known group 'the group' is okay. No correction needed. (Included for completeness.)

× We're a group of five and conversations with them are more lively and fun since we share many memories and inside jokes.

✓ We're a group of five, and conversations with them are livelier and more fun since we share many memories and inside jokes.

Use comparative forms correctly: 'more lively' is acceptable but 'livelier' is the standard comparative adjective. Also add a comma before 'and' joining independent clauses. Maintain parallel adjective order: 'livelier and more fun.'

× We also update each others in our current situations and.

✓ We also update each other on our current situations.

'Each other' is the correct reciprocal pronoun; 'each others' is incorrect. Use the preposition 'on' with 'update' (update someone on something). Remove the trailing 'and' which leaves the sentence incomplete.

× I prefer to communicate face to face because it's more personal and I can read people's expression.

✓ I prefer to communicate face to face because it's more personal and I can read people's expressions.

Use the plural 'expressions' when referring generally to multiple people's facial cues. 'People's expression' sounds like a singular; choose plural for clarity.

× But my friends live in the different places so we keep in touch via social media.

✓ But my friends live in different places, so we keep in touch via social media.

Remove the definite article 'the' before 'different places' because we mean various unspecified places. Add a comma before 'so' linking clauses.

× At the moment we have a group video call once a week to catch up, which helps us to stay close despite the distance.

✓ At the moment we have a group video call once a week to catch up, which helps us stay close despite the distance.

The sentence is grammatical; removing the optional 'to' after 'helps us' results in a more natural phrasing. No tense change required.

× Ends Of course, sometimes my friends and I disagree about many things because we see things differently, for example about our plans and relationships.

✓ Of course, sometimes my friends and I disagree about many things because we see things differently, for example our plans and relationships.

'Ends Of course' appears to be a typo. Remove it and start with 'Of course'. The phrase 'for example about our plans' is redundant; use 'for example our plans' or 'for example, our plans and relationships.' Maintain punctuation for clarity.

× However, we don't take it personally and always support each other, so the arguments never damage your friendship and sometimes that argument strengthen our bond.

✓ However, we don't take it personally and always support each other, so the arguments never damage our friendship and sometimes those arguments strengthen our bond.

Use consistent pronouns addressing the same subject: change 'your friendship' to 'our friendship' to match 'we'. 'That argument' should be plural 'those arguments' to match 'the arguments', and use the verb 'strengthen' with plural subject 'arguments'. Ensure subject-verb agreement.
