Typing— Part 1 採点レポート

提案: Be more concise and structured: give a clear topic sentence, then one or two specific reasons with a linking word. Avoid filler words and unfinished sentences. Also use more precise vocabulary (e.g., “editing” instead of “erase”) and correct small grammar errors.

例: I prefer typing to handwriting because it is more convenient and faster to edit. For example, I can quickly correct mistakes and format text on a computer, which saves time when writing essays or emails.

提案: Start with a direct answer, then give one clear reason and a brief example. Remove fillers like “uh” and fix small grammar (e.g., “easier” not “more easy”). Use linking words such as “because” or “so”.

例: I type on a laptop keyboard every day because I find it easier and more comfortable than a desktop. Since I have used a laptop for years, I can type quickly, which helps me finish tasks faster.

提案: Provide a clear time reference and one concise supporting detail. Use correct grammar and avoid broken sentences. Connect ideas with linking words like “when” and “so” and give a specific result (e.g., increased speed).

例: I learned to type in eighth grade when we had computer classes, so I practised regularly. As a result, my typing speed improved and I can now prepare documents much faster.

提案: Answer directly and explain a clear method for improvement with one specific example. Correct grammar (e.g., “it improved me” → “it improved my speed”) and avoid vague or unclear references like “aunt's Jo”. Use linking words like “by” or “through”.

例: I improve my typing by practising regularly, using online typing tutorials and doing timed exercises. For example, I practice 15 minutes a day on a typing website, which has increased my speed and accuracy for tasks like helping my aunt with her work.

× I prefer typing rather than handwriting because it is convenient and smooth and comfortable too.

✓ I prefer typing to handwriting because it is convenient, smooth, and comfortable.

Use 'prefer A to B' not 'prefer A rather than B'. Use commas to separate adjectives in a series and avoid redundant 'too' when already using 'and'.

× It's easy to erase if any error occurs.

✓ It's easy to erase mistakes if an error occurs.

'Any error' is awkward here; use 'an error' or 'mistakes'. Also 'erase mistakes' is clearer than just 'erase'.

× Handwriting is an.

✓ Handwriting is not as convenient.

The original is incomplete ('is an.'), missing a noun or adjective. Provide a complete comparative phrase fitting the context.

× It's legit.

✓ It's reliable.

'Legit' is informal and vague. In this context 'reliable' or 'legible' is more appropriate and formal for a speaking test.

× I prefer to write on a laptop keyboard because it is more easy and comfortable since, uh, I've been using for a long time.

✓ I prefer to type on a laptop keyboard because it is easier and more comfortable since I've been using it for a long time.

Use 'type' not 'write' for keyboards. 'More easy' is incorrect; use 'easier'. Include the object 'it' after 'using'. Remove filler 'uh'.

× It's fast and can reduce time.

✓ It's fast and saves time.

'Reduce time' is unnatural; 'saves time' is the correct idiomatic phrase.

× I learned when I was in my 8th grade we had computer classes so by typing regularly it made me so far so that I can.

✓ I learned when I was in eighth grade; we had computer classes, and by typing regularly I improved my skills.

Run-on sentence needs splitting; '8th grade' should be 'eighth grade'. The clause 'it made me so far so that I can' is ungrammatical—replace with 'I improved my skills' to convey progress.

× Make the documents very faster.

✓ Make documents much faster.

'Very faster' is ungrammatical; use 'much faster' or 'much more quickly'. Also remove the infinitive mismatch—use full clause if needed (e.g., 'I can make documents much faster').

× I had to learn computers, so regular typing improved myself and it increases my speed.

✓ I learned computer skills, so regular typing improved me and increased my speed.

'Had to learn computers' is awkward; 'learned computer skills' fits. 'Improved myself' is incorrect reflexive use here—use 'improved me' or 'improved my skills'. Tense consistency: past 'improved' matches 'learned'.

× Mostly I prefer to type for my aunt's Jo uh job.

✓ Mostly I prefer to type for my aunt's job.

Remove filler 'Jo uh'. The apostrophe use 'aunt's job' is correct; ensure clarity by removing hesitations and keeping the object 'job'.
