Singing— Part 1 採点レポート

提案: 回答は自然で効果的ですが、文法の誤り（"prefer to instrumental music"は不自然）や語彙の選択に改善の余地があります。また、文のつながりをより明確にするために接続詞を使うと良いでしょう。

例: No, I don't like singing because I'm not confident about my voice, which sounds unpleasant to me. Moreover, I rarely listen to music, so I'm not familiar with popular songs, making me less motivated to sing. Instead, I prefer listening to instrumental music or podcasts in my free time.

提案: 回答は内容が明確で構造も良いですが、時制の誤り（"learn"は過去形"learned"または"learnt"が適切）があります。より自然な表現と接続詞の使用で流れを良くしましょう。

例: Yes, I learned how to sing in my elementary school music class. Each student had to perform solo during exams, which was quite an embarrassing experience for me. However, it helped me build confidence and improve my vocal skills.

提案: 文法の誤り（"prefer to keep"は"prefer to keep"または"prefer keeping"が適切、"people listen"は"people listening"）があり、語彙の選択も改善できます。接続詞を使い、文の流れを滑らかにしましょう。

例: I don't want to sing for anyone because I'm quite shy and not confident in my singing ability. It feels a bit embarrassing, so I prefer to keep my singing private. Also, I don't like the idea of people listening to my voice because I'm afraid they might judge me.

提案: 内容は良いですが、語彙の誤用（"chairs a table"や"strength around among hands"は不自然）や文法の誤りが多いです。より適切な表現と具体的な例を使い、接続詞で論理的に繋げましょう。

例: Yes, I believe singing can bring happiness to people because it creates a sense of unity and boosts morale. For example, when we attend sports games, singing together not only cheers the team but also strengthens the bond among fans. This shared experience often leads to a more positive and joyful atmosphere.

× Instead, I prefer to instrumental music or podcast in my free time.

✓ Instead, I prefer instrumental music or podcasts in my free time.

The verb 'prefer' should be followed by a noun or gerund. Here, 'to' is incorrectly used before 'instrumental music' and 'podcast'. Also, 'podcast' should be plural to match 'music' as a general category. The correct form is 'prefer instrumental music or podcasts'.

× Yes, I learn how to sing.

✓ Yes, I learned how to sing.

The question asks about a past experience, so the verb should be in the past tense. 'Learn' is present tense; the correct past tense form is 'learned'.

× Also, I don't like the idea of people listen to my voice because I'm afraid they might judge me.

✓ Also, I don't like the idea of people listening to my voice because I'm afraid they might judge me.

After 'the idea of', a gerund (-ing form) should be used. 'People listen' is incorrect; it should be 'people listening'. This is a common prepositional phrase structure requiring the gerund form.
