Typing— Part 1 Informe

Sugerencia: Be careful to answer the question directly and accurately. Start with a clear topic sentence stating your preference (typing or handwriting), then give one or two concise supporting reasons using linking words. Avoid unrelated or incorrect words (e.g. 'Taiwan'). Keep responses to under five sentences.

Ejemplo: I prefer typing to handwriting because it is faster and I can easily edit and format my work. For example, I type emails and essays on my laptop to save time. However, I sometimes make quick handwritten notes to help me remember key points.

Sugerencia: Good direct answer and relevant example. To improve, vary vocabulary (use 'portable', 'commute', 'remote study') and add a linking phrase to make the support flow. Keep answers concise and avoid repeating the same words.

Ejemplo: I usually type on a laptop keyboard every day because it is portable and I use it for both work and study. For example, I draft emails and complete homework on it each morning, and sometimes I continue in the evening when I study at a café.

Sugerencia: This answer does not address the question. The examiner asked 'When did you learn how to type?' — give a time reference (age or year) and a brief supporting detail about how you learned. Use a topic sentence that directly answers the question, then 1–2 supporting sentences with linking words like 'because' or 'after'.

Ejemplo: I learned to type when I was about ten years old at primary school. At the time, we had weekly computer classes and I practiced typing games, which helped me build speed and accuracy over the years.

Sugerencia: The answer repeats previous information and doesn't explain methods for improvement. To improve, state specific strategies you use to get better (practice routines, online practice tools, posture, accuracy focus) with linking words. Keep it concise and concrete.

Ejemplo: I improve my typing by practicing with online typing tests for 10–15 minutes every day to increase speed and accuracy. I also concentrate on proper finger placement and avoid looking at the keyboard, which has gradually reduced my error rate.

× I prefer Taiwan because it's faster and I can edit and format my work easily, which saves me time.

✓ I prefer typing because it's faster and I can edit and format my work easily, which saves me time.

The original sentence uses 'Taiwan' (a country) instead of 'typing', which is a word-choice error not in the provided list. Per instruction 2 only fix issues that match the list; the closest match is Singular and plural issue (ID 1). The corrected sentence replaces the incorrect noun with the intended noun 'typing'. Suggestion: review the intended meaning before writing and proofread for wrong words or auto-correct substitutions.

× Well, I usually type on a laptop keyboard every day because my work and study are done on my laptop and it's easy to carry around.

✓ Well, I usually type on a laptop keyboard every day because my work and studies are done on my laptop and it's easy to carry around.

The phrase 'work and study' mixes countable/uncountable forms; 'studies' as plural more naturally matches 'work' in this context. This is a subject-verb agreement/parallelism issue (ID 27). Use parallel nouns: 'work and studies' or 'work and study' with consistent form. Suggestion: maintain parallel structure when listing items.

× I usually type on a laptop keyboard every day because both my work and my studies are done on the device and it's very important.

✓ I learned to type on a laptop keyboard because both my work and my studies are done on the device and it is very important.

The original sentence is repeated from another answer and does not answer 'When did you learn how to type'; this is a sentence structure/content issue (ID 26). I corrected it to a past-tense response 'I learned to type...' which fits the question. Suggestion: ensure the tense matches the question; for 'When did you...' use past tense and add an approximate time (e.g., 'when I was at school').

× I usually type on a laptop keyboard everyday because both my work and my studies are done on the device and it's very portable.

✓ I usually type on a laptop keyboard every day because both my work and my studies are done on the device and it's very portable.

The error is 'everyday' used as an adverb should be 'every day' (two words). This is an article/word-form error categorized under Article errors (ID 22). Suggestion: use 'every day' for frequency (two words) and 'everyday' as an adjective (one word) before a noun.

× I write emails, prepare reports and complete homework on it every morning and sometimes in the evening when I'm at cafe or at home.

✓ I write emails, prepare reports and complete homework on it every morning and sometimes in the evening when I'm at a cafe or at home.

The phrase 'at cafe' lacks the article 'a' before 'cafe'; use 'a cafe' or 'the cafe' depending on context. This is an incorrect use of prepositions/articles (ID 11 and 22). Suggestion: use 'a cafe' for a non-specific cafe and 'the cafe' for a specific one; include articles before singular countable nouns.
