Chatting— Part 1 採点レポート

提案: Be careful with word choice and small grammatical errors. Make the response slightly more concise and natural: use 'personal histories' or 'personal stories', and avoid redundancy. Start with a clear topic sentence, then give one or two supporting reasons linked with a connector.

例: Yes, I really enjoy chatting with my close friends because I feel relaxed around them and can share personal stories easily. For example, we often talk about our experiences at work and support each other when we're stressed.

提案: Remove hesitations and use linking words to make the answer coherent. Group related items and give a brief example to add specificity. Keep it within three to four concise sentences.

例: We usually discuss our jobs, relationships and hobbies. In addition, we share our goals for the coming year and often plan vacations together; for instance, last month we planned a beach trip for next summer.

提案: Correct small grammar issues and use natural phrases. Replace 'in deep' with 'in-depth' or 'deeply', and 'chatting to 1 friend' with 'chatting with one friend'. Add a linking word to contrast the two preferences.

例: It depends. If I need to discuss something in-depth or personal, I prefer chatting with one friend because it's more private. However, I enjoy group chats when I want to share experiences and have fun together.

提案: Fix sentence structure and avoid sentence fragments. Use correct verb forms and prepositions ('spending time', 'focus on a discussion'). Explain advantages and disadvantages coherently using linking words and an example of a misunderstanding if possible.

例: If I had to choose, I prefer face-to-face communication because I enjoy spending time talking and being able to focus on the discussion. That said, social media is useful for staying in touch with many people, although messages can sometimes be misunderstood — for example, a joking comment might be taken seriously online.

提案: Make answers a bit more precise and natural. Replace 'agree on the most topics' with 'agree on most topics' and add a short example to illustrate the disagreement. Use a linking word to show contrast.

例: I don't argue with friends very often; we agree on most topics. However, we sometimes disagree about politics because people have different values and get information from different sources — for instance, we once debated a news story that some of us had seen on social media.

× I enjoy chatting a lot, especially with my close friends. I feel more relaxed with them and we can share ideas and personals histories easily.

✓ I enjoy chatting a lot, especially with my close friends. I feel more relaxed with them and we can share ideas and personal histories easily.

The adjective 'personal' was incorrectly written as 'personals' which is not a correct plural form. Use the adjective 'personal' to modify the plural noun 'histories'. Change 'personals histories' to 'personal histories'. Also 'easily' is acceptable here to describe how we share ideas; no change needed.

× We we we usually discuss our jobs, relationships and hobbies.

✓ We usually discuss our jobs, relationships and hobbies.

The repetition 'We we we' is a speaking disfluency and creates a sentence structure error. Remove the repeated words so the sentence reads normally. This keeps subject-verb agreement intact.

× We also share our goals for the next year and plan future vacations or other activities together.

✓ We also share our goals for the next year and plan future vacations or other activities together.

This sentence is grammatically correct. No change needed. (Included for completeness to show this sentence matches the list and requires no correction.)

× When I need to discuss something personal or in deep, I prefer chatting to 1 friend because it's more private.

✓ When I need to discuss something personal or in depth, I prefer chatting with one friend because it's more private.

'In deep' is incorrect; the correct prepositional phrase is 'in depth'. Also, use 'chatting with' rather than 'chatting to' in this context. Use the word 'one' instead of the numeral '1' in formal writing. These changes correct preposition use and register.

× However, I enjoy being in a group when I want to share experience and have fun together.

✓ However, I enjoy being in a group when I want to share experiences and have fun together.

The noun 'experience' should be plural 'experiences' when referring to multiple events or types of experience collectively. This is a quantifier/noun-number issue; use the plural to match the intended meaning.

× If I have to choose, I prefer face to face communication because I really enjoy spend time talking with someone focusing in a discussion.

✓ If I have to choose, I prefer face-to-face communication because I really enjoy spending time talking with someone and focusing on a discussion.

'Spend' should be the gerund 'spending' after 'enjoy' (modal/verb form issue). 'Face to face' should be hyphenated as 'face-to-face' when used as an adjective. 'Focusing in a discussion' uses the incorrect preposition; use 'focusing on a discussion'. Also add 'and' to connect the activities clearly.

× However, social media. It's good to stay in contact with a lot of people, however, sometimes the messages can misunderstanding in the Internet.

✓ However, social media is good for staying in contact with many people; sometimes messages can be misunderstood on the Internet.

The original has sentence fragments and incorrect verb forms. Combine phrases into complete sentences: 'social media is good for staying in contact' uses the gerund 'staying'. 'A lot of people' is informal; 'many people' is better. 'Messages can misunderstanding' is incorrect; use passive 'can be misunderstood'. Use the preposition 'on the Internet' rather than 'in the Internet'. These changes correct sentence structure, verb form, and preposition use.

× I don't argue with friends very often. We usually agree on the most topics.

✓ I don't argue with friends very often. We usually agree on most topics.

'On the most topics' is incorrect; drop 'the' so that 'most topics' is the correct phrase. This fixes a present-tense common collocation error.

× However, we sometimes disagree about politics because people hold different values and get information from different sources.

✓ However, we sometimes disagree about politics because people hold different values and get information from different sources.

This sentence is grammatically correct and matches present-tense usage; no correction needed.
