Do you often feel tired?
Score: 48.0Suggestion: 「Not really」を最初に置いて直接答えられている点はよいですが、「I make it all to go to bed ARI」は意味が不明で、不自然な表現です。おそらく「I make sure to go to bed early(必ず早く寝るようにしている)」と言いたかったと思われます。また、「comfortable」よりも、起床時には「refreshed」や「well-rested」が適切です。普段は疲れないという答えと、最近は仕事で疲れているという対比を、However や These days で明確につなげましょう。
Example: Not really, to be honest. I make sure to go to bed early every night, so I usually feel refreshed when I wake up. However, I have had a lot of work recently, so I have been feeling quite exhausted.
When would you feel tired?
Score: 43.0Suggestion: 質問には答えられていますが、「when I can't get enough sleep before」は不自然なので、「when I don't get enough sleep」と言いましょう。また、「It is because」は理由を述べる際に重複しており、「As a result」などで結果をつなぐと自然です。「at the evening of the day」ではなく、「during the day」または「in the afternoon」が適切です。睡眠不足によって日中に眠くなるという因果関係を、具体的かつ簡潔に説明してください。
Example: I usually feel tired when I don’t get enough sleep the night before. As a result, I feel sleepy during the day, especially in the afternoon. This makes it difficult for me to concentrate on my work.
What do you do when you feel tired?
Score: 40.0Suggestion: 答えの内容は質問に関連していますが、「make it a little to go to bed」は文法的に不自然です。「I try to go to bed earlier」または「I take a short nap」と表現しましょう。また、「sleep longer than every day」より「sleep for a little longer than usual」が自然です。何をするかを最初に明確に答え、その方法や目的を1文追加すると、より効果的なPart 1の回答になります。
Example: When I feel tired, I try to go to bed earlier than usual. If I cannot do that, I take a short nap after work. This helps me regain my energy.
When you feel tired, do you still go out with your friends?
Score: 60.0Suggestion: 「I prefer Be alone than go out」は、「I prefer to be alone rather than go out」または「I would rather stay at home than go out」と言いましょう。「Be」は文中では小文字の「be」にします。友達と出かけないという直接的な答えに加えて、睡眠が気分転換になる理由を述べられており、内容は比較的明確です。「refresh my mood」より「refresh myself」や「feel refreshed」の方が自然です。
Example: Usually, I would rather stay at home than go out with my friends when I feel tired. I need some quiet time, and getting enough sleep helps me feel refreshed. I can meet my friends another day when I have more energy.
× Not really to be honest, it is because I make it all to go to bed ARI every evening.
✓ Not really, to be honest. This is because I make sure to go to bed early every evening.
The phrase 'make it all to go to bed' is not grammatically correct. Use 'make sure to + base verb' to express taking care to do something. 'ARI' is corrected to 'early' because it is the intended word in this context.
× I feel tired when I can't get enough sleep before.
✓ I feel tired when I can't get enough sleep the night before.
'Before' cannot be used alone at the end of this sentence because the time reference is incomplete. Use 'the night before' to specify when the lack of sleep occurred.
× It is because I feel a little exhausted and feel sleepy at the evening of the day.
✓ It is because I feel a little exhausted and sleepy in the evening.
Use the preposition 'in' with general parts of the day, such as 'in the morning,' 'in the afternoon,' and 'in the evening.' The phrase 'of the day' is unnecessary here.
× Whenever I feel tired I make it a little to go to bed and sleep longer than every day.
✓ Whenever I feel tired, I make an effort to go to bed and sleep longer than usual.
The structure 'make it a little to go' is incorrect. Use 'make an effort to + base verb' to describe trying to do something. A comma is also needed after the introductory 'Whenever' clause.
× Whenever I feel tired I make it a little to go to bed and sleep longer than every day.
✓ Whenever I feel tired, I make an effort to go to bed and sleep longer than usual.
'Every day' is a time expression, not an appropriate comparison object after 'longer than.' Use 'usual' in the phrase 'longer than usual' when comparing the amount of sleep with a normal amount.
× Actually I prefer Be alone than go out with my friends and I think getting enough sleep is the best way to refresh my mood.
✓ Actually, I prefer being alone to going out with my friends, and I think getting enough sleep is the best way to refresh my mood.
After 'prefer,' use a gerund when comparing activities: 'prefer being ... to going ... .' Therefore, 'be' changes to 'being' and 'go' changes to 'going.'
× Actually I prefer Be alone than go out with my friends and I think getting enough sleep is the best way to refresh my mood.
✓ Actually, I prefer being alone to going out with my friends, and I think getting enough sleep is the best way to refresh my mood.
The standard pattern is 'prefer A to B,' not 'prefer A than B.' Use the preposition 'to' after 'prefer' when making this comparison.
