Chatting— Part 1 採点レポート

提案: Reduce filled pauses (uh), keep answer concise and structured: start with a clear topic sentence, then one specific supporting detail. Vary vocabulary (keep in touch, check in).

例: Yes, I do. I often keep in touch with friends on my phone to check how their day went. For example, I usually send a quick message in the evening to ask about work or mood so we can support each other.

提案: Start with a direct topic sentence and give one or two specific examples using linking words (for example, or sometimes). Avoid hesitations and combine similar ideas more smoothly.

例: We usually talk about our daily activities and feelings. For example, we might discuss how a meeting went, share photos from meals or trips, and sometimes ask each other’s opinion on what looks best in a picture.

提案: Use clearer grammar (e.g. 'I find it difficult') and avoid repetition. Give one clear reason with a linking word (because/so) and a brief example to illustrate.

例: I prefer private chats with one friend because I find group chats hard to follow and less personal. For instance, in a private chat I can respond thoughtfully and focus on what one person is saying.

提案: Make the answer more concise and use a linking phrase to add a specific reason or example. Replace 'you' with 'people' or 'one' for formality and avoid repetition.

例: I prefer face-to-face communication because it reduces misunderstandings. For example, seeing someone’s expressions and tone helps prevent arguments that might start from a written message.

提案: Correct grammar and clarity: start with a direct answer, then give a clear, specific reason and an example. Avoid awkward phrasing like 'be obsessed'—use 'care more about' or 'take comments personally'.

例: Yes, sometimes we do. When people are close, they often take comments more personally, so small misunderstandings can lead to arguments. For example, a joking remark about plans once turned into a disagreement because one friend felt hurt.

× Most of the times I try to keep in touch with my friends, uh, on my cell phone by chatting with them because uh, this is a way to uh, know about their day and uh, daily routines and know if they feel good or bad.

✓ Most of the time I try to keep in touch with my friends on my cell phone by chatting with them because this is a way to learn about their day and daily routines and to know whether they feel good or bad.

Use 'Most of the time' (not 'times') for frequency; 'learn about' is more natural than 'know about' here; add 'to' before 'know' to form a parallel infinitive structure; use 'whether' for alternatives. Grammar problem type ID:6

× We usually chat about our day and how we feel and also discuss opinions about different situations.

✓ We usually chat about our day and how we feel, and we also discuss our opinions about different situations.

Add 'we' for parallel subjects and 'our opinions' is more natural than just 'opinions'; include a comma before 'and' to separate clauses. Preposition use ('about') is okay but sentence structure needed correction. Grammar problem type ID:11

× Or, uh, we share photos about our day or make decisions on a picture.

✓ We also share photos of our day or make decisions based on a picture.

Use 'photos of our day' not 'about our day'; 'make decisions on a picture' should be 'based on a picture' for correct idiom. Removed leading 'Or' and filler words for clarity. Grammar problem type ID:26

× I prefer to chat with one friend on private because, uh, I heard it difficult to follow the conversation in the group chats and also I feel more connected with people, uh, if I chat in private chats with them and also I can focus on the individual.

✓ I prefer to chat privately with one friend because I find it difficult to follow the conversation in group chats, and I feel more connected to people if I chat with them privately; I can also focus on the individual.

Use 'privately' instead of 'on private'; 'I heard it difficult' is incorrect — use 'I find it difficult' or 'I find it hard'; remove redundant 'chats' and fix prepositions ('connected to'); use articles and punctuation appropriately. Grammar problem type ID:22

× I prefer face to face communication because in the chat you can't understand the exact meaning of the person who is talking and you can misunderstand the point of the person and this would lead to arguments.

✓ I prefer face-to-face communication because in chat you can't always understand the speaker's exact meaning, and you may misunderstand their point, which can lead to arguments.

Use hyphens in 'face-to-face' as a compound adjective; 'in chat' or 'in a chat' is more natural than 'in the chat'; replace 'the person who is talking' with 'the speaker'; use 'may' or 'can' for possibility; use 'which' to link clause. Preposition and phrasing adjusted. Grammar problem type ID:11

× Yes, of course, because if you be in a. Close relationship to someone you can be obsessed with something that she says or done more when you're feel closer to that friend and you can argue with each other.

✓ Yes, of course. If you are in a close relationship with someone, you can become upset by something she says or does, especially when you feel closer to that friend, and you can argue with each other.

Use 'are' for present simple ('if you are'); remove extraneous period after 'a'; use 'in a close relationship with' (preposition 'with'); replace 'become obsessed with' with 'become upset by' for natural meaning; 'does' is correct verb form not 'done'; use 'when you feel' not 'you're feel'. Fixed subject-verb agreement and verb forms. Grammar problem type ID:2}]},
