Food— Part 1 採点レポート

提案: 回答は意味は伝わりますが、冗長な表現や繰り返しが多く、文法的に不自然な箇所があります。まず最初に直接的なトピック文（I like ...）で始め、続けて理由を1〜2文で具体的に述べると良いです。接続詞（because, and, so）を適切に使い、不要なフィラー（I would say, I think）や繰り返しを減らしましょう。また“representing those kind of food”のような表現は不自然なので、簡潔で正確な語彙に置き換えてください。発音や流暢さも改善するとスコアが上がります。

例: My favourite food is fried chicken. I enjoy it because it's savory and crispy, and the seasoning is very satisfying. I also like that it’s easy to find and pairs well with many side dishes.

提案: 回答は基本的に理解できますが、時制の一致と冗長表現を直しましょう。過去の話なので“liked”を使い、“I think”や“like”の多用を避けて簡潔に述べると自然です。理由や具体例（誰と食べたか、どんな場面で食べたか）を1文で加えるとより良くなります。

例: When I was young, I liked sushi, especially salmon sushi. I often ate it with my family at weekend dinners because my parents enjoyed sushi restaurants.

提案: 内容は明確で理にかなっていますが、口語的すぎる表現や文法の誤りを修正しましょう（depends → depending on / depending on the season）。接続詞の使い方は良いので、具体的な例（夏は果物、冬は根菜など）を付け加えるとさらに説得力が増します。

例: Yes. I usually eat different foods depending on the season. For example, in summer I eat more fresh fruits like watermelon, while in winter I prefer hot stews with root vegetables.

提案: 回答は曖昧でフィラー（umm, uh）と冗長な説明が多く、文法も不正確です（I'm still in the teenager → I'm still a teenager; it doesn't really change → it hasn't really changed）。まず直接に“Yes/No”で答え、その後に一つか二つの明確な理由を述べましょう。個人的な情報は簡潔にし、不要な自己診断（my stomach is kind of strong）や曖昧な表現は避けてください。

例: Not really. I’m still a teenager, so my tastes haven’t changed much; I still enjoy the same foods I liked as a child, especially fried and savory dishes.

× I particularly prefer eating fried chicken, I would say because I love both savory and oily foods and I think fried chicken is one of the major food representing those kind of food and I love to eat it.

✓ I particularly prefer fried chicken, I would say, because I love both savory and oily foods, and I think fried chicken is one of the main foods that represent those kinds of food, and I love to eat it.

The sentence contains several issues. 'Prefer eating' is grammatical but 'prefer fried chicken' is more natural; this relates to verb + -ing usage and style. 'Major food' should be 'main foods' (singular/plural and word choice). 'Representing those kind of food' is incorrect: 'that represent those kinds of food' fixes verb agreement and plural forms. Suggestions: simplify 'prefer eating' to 'prefer', use plural forms for countable nouns ('foods', 'kinds'), and use 'that represent' to link noun phrase properly.

× When I was young, I think I love eating sushi, especially salmon sushi.

✓ When I was young, I think I loved eating sushi, especially salmon sushi.

The time clause 'When I was young' sets the context in the past, so the main verb should be in the past tense: 'loved' rather than 'love'. Suggestion: match verb tense to time expressions (use past tense with past time markers).

× I don't know why but like, I think that was my most favorite food.

✓ I don't know why, but I think that was my favorite food.

'Most favorite' is redundant: 'favorite' already indicates the top choice. 'Like' is a discourse filler and can be removed for clarity. Suggestion: avoid redundant modifiers and unnecessary fillers; use 'favorite' alone.

× you'll find different kinds of vegetables or fruits, depends what kind of season it is.

✓ you'll find different kinds of vegetables and fruits, depending on which season it is.

Use 'and' rather than 'or' to generalize both categories. 'Depends' is incorrect in this clause; use the gerund clause 'depending on' and 'which season' for clarity. Suggestion: use 'depending on' to introduce conditional explanations and be consistent with countable nouns (vegetables and fruits).

× So I think that changes our daily meal as well.

✓ So I think that changes our daily meals as well.

'Meal' should be plural 'meals' because 'daily meals' refers to repeated instances across days. Ensure noun number agrees with the intended meaning.

× Umm, not really, because I'm still uh, in the teenager and it doesn't really uh, change a a lot because I still love something that children tend to love and I can still eat oily foods 'cause my stomach is kind of strong so.

✓ Umm, not really, because I'm still a teenager and it hasn't changed a lot because I still like the things children tend to like, and I can still eat oily foods because my stomach is quite strong.

Multiple issues: 'in the teenager' is incorrect; use 'a teenager' (article and noun). 'It doesn't really change' refers to the past change—use present perfect 'hasn't changed' for a change since childhood. 'Love something that children tend to love' is wordy; 'like the things children tend to like' is clearer and corrects pronoun usage. Use 'because' instead of informal ''cause' in formal speech. Suggestions: use correct article with 'teenager', use present perfect for changes over time, and simplify expressions for clarity.
