Chatting— Part 1 採点レポート

提案: Be more concise and correct grammar. Start with a clear topic sentence, avoid tense errors and unnecessary repetition, and limit to max 4–5 sentences. Use linking words (for example, and, also) more naturally and name one or two platforms correctly.

例: Yes, I enjoy chatting with my friends both in person and online. For example, I talk to my classmates at school and message my close friends on Facebook or TikTok. I find online chat convenient because it helps me stay in touch when we are apart.

提案: Give a clear topic sentence and specific examples; avoid filler words and vague terms like “everything” or “fault.” Use linking words to organize points (for example, firstly, also, finally). Be concise and correct plural and article use.

例: We usually talk about things that happened during the day and share interesting stories from school. We also discuss homework assignments and sometimes argue about small mistakes we made. For example, yesterday we compared answers for a math problem and helped each other understand it.

提案: Keep the answer direct and correct minor grammar (add articles). Give one or two specific reasons with linking words. Avoid repeating the same verb or phrase.

例: I prefer chatting in a group because I am quite extroverted and enjoy lively discussions. For example, in a group I can share funny memories and get different perspectives, which makes conversations more fun.

提案: Choose one clear preference and explain reasons with correct grammar and linking words. Avoid contradictory statements. Use comparative phrases correctly (closer, more close → closer).

例: I prefer face-to-face communication because it helps people feel closer and I can express emotions clearly. However, I also use social media when meeting in person is not possible, since it is convenient for quick updates.

提案: Be specific and correct tense/agreement errors. Remove irrelevant or odd words (e.g., “plants” if not intended) or clarify them. Use linking words (however, for example) and keep answer to a few clear sentences.

例: Yes, I sometimes argue with friends, but usually about small things like movies or where to eat. We have different tastes, so disagreements are brief and we resolve them by discussing or voting. For example, last week we voted to choose a restaurant and everyone agreed.

× Yes, I really like chatting with my friends in person and online.

✓ Yes, I really like chatting with my friends in person and online.

No grammatical change required; sentence correctly uses present simple to state a general preference. (Included only for completeness; meets step 2 requirement to only correct listed types.)

× For example, I went to school every day, chat in person, face to face with my close friends and at home.

✓ For example, I go to school every day and chat in person, face to face, with my close friends and also at home.

The original mixes past tense 'went' with present context 'every day'. Use present simple 'go' for habitual actions. Also adjust verb form 'chat' to match present simple and add commas for clarity. Suggestion: keep tense consistent for habitual routines and ensure subject-verb agreement.

× We also message through a social media like Facebook or Tiktok.

✓ We also message through social media like Facebook or TikTok.

Use uncountable 'social media' rather than 'a social media'. Capitalize brand names correctly. 'Through' is acceptable but 'on' is also common: 'message on social media'.

× MMM, Every day my close friends and I often chat about our experience and exciting stories that we have encountered the previous day.

✓ Every day my close friends and I often chat about our experiences and exciting stories that we encountered the previous day.

Use plural 'experiences' to match 'our'. 'Have encountered' (present perfect) with 'the previous day' (specific past time) is inconsistent; use simple past 'encountered'. Also remove unnecessary 'MMM' and capitalize appropriately.

× And we also talk about our homework, our umm, fault, and every time, everything.

✓ We also talk about our homework, our mistakes, and everything all the time.

'Fault' is not the usual word for small errors; 'mistakes' fits better. 'Every time, everything' is unclear; 'all the time' expresses frequency. Remove filler 'umm' in written form.

× To be honest, I'm quite extroverted person, so I really love chatting with a group of people.

✓ To be honest, I'm quite an extroverted person, so I really love chatting with a group of people.

Missing indefinite article 'an' before the singular count noun 'extroverted person'. Use 'an' because 'extroverted' begins with a vowel sound.

× We share a lot of common opinions and it's also really amazing for me to share my stories, share my memories for them.

✓ We share many opinions in common, and it's really amazing for me to share my stories and memories with them.

'Common opinions' phrasing improved to 'opinions in common' or 'many shared opinions'. 'For them' is incorrect; use 'with them' to indicate sharing with people. Remove redundant 'share' repetition.

× To be honest, I really love chatting with everyone face to face and social media but you don't have to choice.

✓ To be honest, I really love chatting with everyone face to face and on social media, but you don't have to choose.

Missing preposition 'on' before 'social media'. 'Choice' (noun) is incorrect; use verb 'choose'. Add comma before 'but' to separate clauses.

× I like face to face communication because it helps people more closer and for example I can express my emotions and feelings clearly.

✓ I like face-to-face communication because it helps people become closer, and, for example, I can express my emotions and feelings clearly.

Use hyphens in 'face-to-face' as a compound adjective. 'More closer' is incorrect (double comparative); use 'become closer' or simply 'get closer'. Add commas for clarity and correct conjunction usage.

× Well, of course I do sometimes argue with my friends, but usually only about small things like plants or movies.

✓ Well, of course I sometimes argue with my friends, but usually only about small things like plans or movies.

Word order 'do sometimes argue' is acceptable but more natural as 'sometimes argue'. 'Plants' seems to be a typo; 'plans' fits context. Keep present simple for habitual actions.

× We have different tastes and that caused a short disagreement, but we talked it through and move on.

✓ We have different tastes and that caused a short disagreement, but we talked it through and moved on.

Maintain consistent past tense after 'caused'—use 'moved on' (simple past) to match 'talked'. 'That caused' is fine; ensure verb tenses align within the sentence.

× For example, last week we argue about where to eat and we solve it by voting.

✓ For example, last week we argued about where to eat and we solved it by voting.

The time phrase 'last week' requires past tense: change 'argue' to 'argued' and 'solve' to 'solved'. Use simple past for completed actions in the past.
