Reading— Part 1 採点レポート

提案: Be more coherent and concise. Start with a clear topic sentence, then give 1–2 supporting details using linking words. Avoid fragments and redundant repetitions. For example, combine genres in one sentence and briefly explain why you like them.

例: Yes, I enjoy reading, especially novels and business books. For instance, I like novels because they let me enter a world of imagination, and business books because they provide practical ideas I can apply to my work.

提案: Improve grammatical accuracy and fluency by using clearer linking phrases and corrected word order. State preference then explain reasons with connectors like 'however' or 'so'.

例: I prefer reading on paper because I enjoy the tactile feel of books; however, paper books are expensive and take up a lot of space, so recently I have been buying ebooks and reading on my Kindle.

提案: Clarify vocabulary (avoid informal slang like 'ZAP') and use linking words to contrast situations. Provide a brief example of what 'reading carefully' involves.

例: I need to read carefully when I study business reports because I must catch important points and figures; in contrast, when I read novels or leisure books I skim for interesting scenes and main ideas rather than every detail.

提案: Complete your sentences and avoid trailing off. Use a clear topic sentence and contrast with linking words. Give a short example of each reading mode.

例: It depends on the material: for business reports I prefer detailed reading because I need to understand numbers and conclusions; for novels or light articles I usually scan or skim to get the main plot and interesting passages.

× My favorite genre is novels and business books.

✓ My favorite genres are novels and business books.

The original uses singular 'genre' with plural items. This is an article/number agreement issue: when referring to multiple types, use plural 'genres' and match the verb 'are' if needed. Suggestion: use plural nouns for lists of categories.

× Novels. Let me. Given the world of imagination.

✓ Novels let me enter a world of imagination.

The original is fragmented and ungrammatical. Combine fragments into a complete sentence with a subject and verb. Use 'let me enter' to express that novels allow the speaker to experience imagination. Suggestion: avoid sentence fragments and ensure subject-verb-object structure.

× So in the limited resource I recently buy books online and reading on Kindle.

✓ So, due to limited resources, I recently bought books online and have been reading on my Kindle.

Tense inconsistency: 'recently' implies past action, so 'bought' is appropriate; 'reading' needs auxiliary to form present perfect continuous ('have been reading') to show ongoing action. Also 'resource' should be plural 'resources' and 'Kindle' usually takes a possessive. Suggestion: keep tense consistent and use correct auxiliaries for continuous aspects.

× On business reports I have to read carefully so I don't miss the important points and details, but on novels and business books, which I simply enjoy reading, I just ZAP around important ideas.

✓ For business reports I have to read carefully so I don't miss the important points and details, but with novels and business books, which I simply enjoy reading, I just skim around the important ideas.

Informal 'ZAP around' is not appropriate; replace with 'skim around'. Also preposition choice: use 'for' or 'with' for contexts. Ensure subject-verb agreement and natural collocations. Suggestion: use standard verbs like 'skim' and appropriate prepositions.

× It depends on what I'm reading. As I mentioned earlier in business reports, I have to read carefully, so I read all the details, but on novels and other enjoyable reading situation I just.

✓ It depends on what I'm reading. As I mentioned earlier, for business reports I have to read carefully and read all the details, but for novels and other enjoyable reading situations I just skim.

The original ends abruptly and uses incorrect singular 'situation'. Complete the sentence by adding the missing verb 'skim' and correct plural 'situations'. Also adjust prepositions to 'for' to indicate context. Suggestion: always finish clauses with a verb and check noun number.
