Typing— Part 1 採点レポート

提案: Make the answer more natural and concise. Start with a clear topic sentence, then give one or two specific reasons using linking words. Correct grammar (verb forms) and avoid unnecessary repetition.

例: I prefer handwriting because writing by hand helps me remember information better. Although I do type on my iPad sometimes, I find that taking notes with a pen helps me focus and retain details, so I usually choose handwriting for studying.

提案: Respond directly and give a specific detail about which device you use most and why. Use linking words to connect ideas and correct awkward phrasing.

例: Yes, I type every day, mostly on my desktop at work because it has a full keyboard and is faster for long documents. I also use my laptop or iPad occasionally when I need to work remotely.

提案: Give a clear, grammatically correct timeframe and one specific detail about the learning context. Avoid vague phrases like 'quite three' and improve sentence structure.

例: I learned to type when I was about eight years old. Typing was taught as a regular subject at my primary school, so all the students practiced typing skills during computer classes.

提案: Clearly describe current or past methods for improving typing with correct grammar. If mentioning a program, give its correct name or explain if unsure. Use linking words to make the answer coherent.

例: I improved my typing by using a practice program when I was in grade three, which gave me structured exercises and timed tests. Nowadays I keep improving by doing online typing exercises and practicing touch-typing for 10–15 minutes each day.

× In recent years, technology become the important part in my daily life.

✓ In recent years, technology has become an important part of my daily life.

The sentence refers to a change that began in the past and continues to the present, so the present perfect tense is required ('has become'). Also use the article 'an' before 'important part' and 'of my daily life' is the correct prepositional phrase. Suggestion: Use present perfect for recent changes that still hold, and include proper articles and prepositions.

× I start typing on my iPad, but I found out that I cannot remember anything.

✓ I started typing on my iPad, but I found that I could not remember anything.

The context mixes times: 'In recent years' implies past action continuing; here the student describes a past habit or experience so simple past 'started' is appropriate. 'Found out' is awkward for a discovery about memory; simple past 'found' is better. When reporting a past ability or inability, use past modality 'could not'. Suggestion: Keep tense consistent when describing past experiences and match modal verbs to past ('could' instead of 'cannot').

× Yes, in my daily life I work on my computer and my iPad, so I type on my desktop or laptop keyboard.

✓ Yes, in my daily life I work on my computer and my iPad, so I type on my desktop and laptop keyboards.

When listing multiple devices, use 'and' not 'or' if both are being referenced; plural 'keyboards' is needed because more than one keyboard is implied. This fixes agreement between noun and described items. Suggestion: Match plurality of nouns to the number of items and use appropriate conjunctions when referring to multiple things.

× Every day is the big part of my job.

✓ Typing every day is a big part of my job.

The original sentence has awkward word order and article usage. 'Every day' as a time expression cannot function as the subject meaningfully here; rephrase to 'Typing every day' or 'Every day I type' and use the indefinite article 'a' before 'big part'. Suggestion: Reorder the sentence so the activity is clearly the subject and include the correct article.

× I learned how to type on the keyboard when I was quite three.

✓ I learned how to type on the keyboard when I was about three.

The phrase 'quite three' is incorrect in English; use 'about three' or 'around three' to indicate approximate age. The rest of the sentence correctly uses past tense 'learned'. Suggestion: Use 'about' or 'around' for approximate ages.

× At my school it is a subject to teach every child to type on keyboard to use computer.

✓ At my school it was a subject: every child was taught to type on the keyboard to use a computer.

The original has incorrect verb forms and missing articles. Use past tense 'was' if referring to past curriculum, passive 'was taught' for how children received instruction, include 'the' before 'keyboard', and 'a' before 'computer'. Also replace infinitive structure with a clearer clause. Suggestion: Use passive voice for general practices ('was taught') and include appropriate articles before singular countable nouns.

× There was a program to practice typing when I was at grade 3.

✓ There was a program to practice typing when I was in grade 3.

Standard English uses 'in grade 3' (or 'in third grade') to indicate school year. The rest of the sentence is acceptable in past tense. Suggestion: Use 'in' before grade level expressions.

× Is call for Hokkaido Egg as a work program?

✓ It was called 'Hokkaido Egg' as a work program.

The original is ungrammatical: question form 'Is call for' is incorrect. If describing the program's name in the past, use past passive/active 'It was called' or 'They called it'. Also enclose the program name and use articles as needed. If asking a question, rewrite as 'Was it called "Hokkaido Egg" as a work program?'. Suggestion: Decide whether you are stating or asking; use correct past tense and verb forms ('was called' or 'was it called') and include the program name clearly.
