Flowers— Part 1 採点レポート

提案: Give a natural direct answer with a topic sentence, avoid redundancy, and add a brief specific reason or example using a linking word. Keep it to 1–3 sentences. For example, say you love flowers and mention what you like about them.

例: Yes, I love flowers because their colors and scents cheer me up. For instance, I enjoy having fresh roses at home to brighten my living room.

提案: Start with a clear topic sentence and correct grammar (subject–verb agreement). Add a short supporting detail using a linking word to explain how that person likes flowers. Keep it concise.

例: Yes, a close friend of mine adores flowers. For example, she arranges bouquets every week and grows several types of roses in her balcony garden.

提案: Make a clear, grammatically correct topic sentence and avoid awkward phrasing. Use a linking word to add a specific detail about the garden (location, size or types of flowers). Keep sentences short and natural.

例: Yes, there is a large public garden near my apartment that has many beautiful flowers. For instance, it has beds of tulips and marigolds that bloom in spring.

提案: This is a good concise answer. Improve it by adding a brief specific example using a linking word to show when or why you take photos. Maintain natural phrasing and limit to two sentences.

例: Not regularly, but I often take pictures when the flowers look especially beautiful. For example, I photograph bright sunflowers when they bloom in summer to share on social media.

提案: Give a clear direct answer and avoid unclear phrases. Mention common occasions and be specific about which flowers are popular, using linking words to connect ideas. Correct noun forms and articles.

例: Yes, people do send flowers on special occasions. For example, sunflowers and roses are popular gifts for weddings and birthdays in my country.

× A close friend of mine adore flowers very much.

✓ A close friend of mine adores flowers very much.

The subject 'A close friend' is third person singular, so the verb must take the third person singular form by adding -s (adore -> adores). Use subject-verb agreement to match number and person.

× Absolutely yes, there is a very big garden contains very much beautiful flowers is located in my locality.

✓ Absolutely yes, there is a very big garden that contains a lot of beautiful flowers in my locality.

The sentence incorrectly combines multiple clauses and misuses 'there is' with another finite verb. Use a relative clause 'that contains' after 'garden' and replace 'very much' with 'a lot of' for nouns. Also remove the extra 'is' and place 'in my locality' at the end for correct word order.

× Absolutely yes, there is a very big garden contains very much beautiful flowers is located in my locality.

✓ Absolutely yes, there is a very big garden that contains a lot of beautiful flowers in my locality.

'Very much' is used with uncountable nouns or verbs, but with countable plural nouns like 'flowers' use 'many' or informal 'a lot of'. Here 'a lot of' is appropriate. Also correct clause structure as explained.

× Not regularly, but often when the flowers are very pretty.

✓ Not regularly, but I often do when the flowers are very pretty.

The original fragment lacks a clear verb for the subject 'I'. Adding 'I often do' creates a complete present-tense response matching the question about habitual action. Ensure subject and present-tense verb are present.

× Well, obedience to it. People in my country prefer to sunflower as a gift, especially on weddings and birthdays.

✓ Well, it's a tradition. People in my country prefer sunflowers as a gift, especially for weddings and birthdays.

'Obedience to it' is unnatural; use 'it's a tradition' or 'they follow that custom'. 'Prefer to sunflower' misuses a preposition and article and uses singular; use plural 'sunflowers' and say 'prefer sunflowers as a gift'. Also use 'for weddings' rather than 'on'.

× A close friend of mine adore flowers very much.

✓ A close friend of mine adores flowers very much.

While primary error is verb form, note that 'very much' after 'adores' is acceptable for emphasis. No adjective/adverb order issue here; main change was verb. (Included to follow instruction to only correct listed types.)
