Typing— Part 1 採点レポート

提案: Make the response direct and grammatical, give a clear reason and a brief example. Use one topic sentence then one supporting detail. Avoid redundancy like "type typing."

例: I prefer handwriting because it helps me think more carefully and avoid careless mistakes. For example, when I write notes by hand I remember ideas better and can correct them as I go.

提案: Start with a concise topic sentence stating which device you use most, then give a brief reason and a time reference. Improve grammar and word order, and avoid unclear phrases like "desktop mode."

例: Yes, I type every day. I mainly use a desktop at work because I am an underwriter and need a large screen and ergonomic keyboard for long hours of data entry.

提案: Provide a clear, grammatical sentence with a specific time (age or year) and a short supporting detail about how you learned. Avoid fragmented sentences.

例: I learned to type at school when I was about eight years old. The teacher showed us proper finger placement and gave typing exercises to practice.

提案: Give a clear topic sentence describing the method, then add a specific detail about frequency or a practice technique. Use correct verb forms and avoid vague phrases like "for a several."

例: I improve my typing by using the computer every day and practicing online typing exercises for 15–20 minutes. This regular practice has helped me increase my speed and reduce mistakes.

× I prefer handwriting because sometimes I made a mistake and type typing.

✓ I prefer handwriting because sometimes I make a mistake when typing.

The student mixed past tense 'made' with present preference. Use simple present 'make' to match general truth. Also 'type typing' is incorrect word choice and redundancy; use 'when typing' or 'while typing' to describe the action.

× Yes I do. I am working at the underwriting so I used to type on desktop and laptop but I'm sitting on a desktop mode.

✓ Yes, I do. I work in underwriting, so I usually type on both a desktop and a laptop, but currently I'm using a desktop.

The original mixes present continuous 'am working' with 'used to' (past/habit). Use simple present 'I work' for occupation and 'usually' for habitual action. 'Used to' implies no longer doing it. 'Sitting on a desktop mode' is incorrect phrasing; use 'currently I'm using a desktop.'

× I learn how to type in a school when I was. 1. Eight years. They teach us how to.

✓ I learned how to type at school when I was eight years old. They taught us how to type.

The student used present 'learn' instead of past 'learned' for a past event. 'In a school' should be 'at school'. The age phrase should be 'when I was eight years old'. 'They teach us' should be past 'they taught us' to match past time.

× I improve my typing by use the computer every day for a several. Think that's helped me with typing clearly.

✓ I improve my typing by using the computer every day for several years. I think that has helped me type more clearly.

After 'by' use the -ing form 'using'. 'For a several' is ungrammatical; use 'for several years' or 'for a while' depending on meaning. 'Think that's helped me with typing clearly' should be 'I think that has helped me type more clearly' to use present perfect for past action with present result and correct verb form 'type' rather than noun phrase 'typing'. 'More clearly' is correct adverb placement.
