Shoes— Part 1 採点レポート

提案: Your answer is relevant and gives specific detail (shopping in Japan), but it's a little long and slightly repetitive ("high quality, very comfortable designs"). To improve, start with a clear topic sentence, then add one concise supporting detail and a brief reason. Use a linking word for clarity and avoid repeating similar adjectives.

例: Yes, I like buying shoes, and I usually buy a new pair about once a year. For example, I often shop when I travel, especially in Japan, because their shoes fit me well and are very comfortable.

提案: Good structure: direct answer, reason, and a specific example. To improve, tighten sentences and use a linking word to connect the problem and result. Also avoid repeating "convenient" twice—use a synonym.

例: Yes, I have bought shoes online a few times because it is convenient; however, sizing can be an issue. For instance, one pair arrived too small, so I had to return them, which was time-consuming.

提案: The answer is short and partially relevant but lacks a concrete amount and clear supporting detail. Give a direct topic sentence with an approximate figure or range, then briefly explain why you limit spending using a linking word. This will make your response more informative and natural.

例: I usually spend around $50 to $100 on a pair of shoes. However, I try to limit my purchases because I often want to buy more than I need.

提案: You answer the question and give examples, but there are small language errors and an unclear phrase "daily return." Replace that with "daily routine" and correct word order mistakes. Use a linking word to contrast daily preference with exceptions.

例: I prefer comfortable shoes because they suit my daily routine. For example, I usually wear trainers to work, but I sometimes buy fashionable shoes for special occasions.

× 'I usually buy a new pair about once a year, for example, when I travel, and I especially enjoy shopping in Japan because they produce a wide range of high quality, very comfortable designs that fit me well.'

✓ 'I usually buy a new pair about once a year; for example, when I travel, and I especially enjoy shopping in Japan because they produce a wide range of high-quality, very comfortable designs that fit me well.'

'The main issue is not strictly singular/plural but punctuation and adjective hyphenation. However, "high quality" used attributively should be hyphenated to "high-quality". Use of a semicolon or split into two sentences improves clarity because the sentence is long and contains multiple ideas. Suggestion: hyphenate compound adjective and consider shorter sentences.'

× 'Yes, I have bought shoes online a few times because it's very convenient, but getting the right size is often a problem.'

✓ 'Yes, I have bought shoes online a few times because it is very convenient, but getting the right size is often a problem.'

'Contraction "it's" is acceptable in speech; grammatically no tense error. Changed to full form "it is" to match formal written style. Present perfect (have bought) is correct because it links past actions to the present. Suggestion: keep present perfect when describing life experiences and use full forms in formal writing.'

× 'For example, the shoes I ordered once were too small so I had to return them, which made the process less convenient.'

✓ 'For example, the shoes I ordered were too small, so I had to return them, which made the process less convenient.'

'The past tense "ordered" and "had to return" are correct. The only issue is word order: "ordered once" is awkward; move "once" or remove it. Added a comma before "so" for clarity. Suggestion: place adverbs like "once" near the verb or omit if unnecessary.'

× 'I don't remember how much I spent on shoes, but I tried to limit my purchases because I have a strong desire to buy more.'

✓ 'I don't remember how much I have spent on shoes, but I try to limit my purchases because I have a strong desire to buy more.'

'Original mixes past simple (I spent, I tried) with present context. Use present perfect "have spent" to relate past spending to now. Use present simple "I try to limit" to express a habitual or ongoing intention. "I tried" implies a finished action in the past which contradicts "I have a strong desire to buy more." Suggestion: keep tense consistent to reflect current habits and ongoing desires.'

× 'I prefer comfortable shoes because they are more practical for my daily return.'

✓ 'I prefer comfortable shoes because they are more practical for my daily routine.'

'"Return" is incorrect in this context; the intended noun is "routine." This is not a subject-verb agreement issue but a word choice error; corrected to "routine." Suggestion: use "daily routine" to describe regular activities.'

× 'For example, I usually wear trainers to work most days for comfort, although sometimes by I buy fashionable shoes for special occasions.'

✓ 'For example, I usually wear trainers to work most days for comfort, although sometimes I buy fashionable shoes for special occasions.'

'There is an extraneous word "by" causing ungrammatical structure. Third person singular is not the issue; subject "I" requires base verb "buy," which is correct. Removed "by." Suggestion: proofread to remove stray words; maintain subject-verb order "I buy."'}]} }丁 (invalid JSON at end)
