Typing— Part 1 採点レポート

提案: Be more natural and concise: remove fillers and repetition, use a clear topic sentence and one supporting reason for each preference, linked with a cohesive connector. Also correct minor grammar (e.g., use singular/plural and pronouns) and avoid vague phrases like "they say."

例: I prefer typing when I need to write a lot because it's faster and less tiring. However, for studying, I prefer handwriting because it helps me remember information better.

提案: Make the response slightly more natural and grammatically correct: use articles and adverbs properly, and add a brief reason to enrich the answer using a linking word.

例: I type on a laptop keyboard every day because I don't have a desktop. As a result, I can work anywhere in my home, which is very convenient.

提案: Provide a clear, direct answer with correct time expression and avoid hedging phrases. Add a brief supporting detail (how you learned) using a linking word to make it more informative.

例: I learned to type when I was very young — about 15 years ago. I learned mostly at school during computer lessons, and I practiced with online typing exercises.

提案: Be more confident and specific: remove filler words, give a clear method and an example of practice, and use linking words to structure the response.

例: I improve my typing by practicing regularly, for example using timed typing tests and exercises. In addition, I focus on accuracy first and gradually increase my speed.

× If there's so much to write, I I prefer typing because it's easier.

✓ If there is so much to write, I prefer typing because it's easier.

The sentence had a duplicated 'I' and a contraction 'there's' that is acceptable in speech but for clarity use 'there is'. This error is primarily a word repetition/typo rather than a grammatical form; correcting the duplication makes the sentence grammatical and fluent. Suggestion: remove the extra 'I' and use 'there is' or keep 'there's' consistently.

× But if it but it's for learning, I prefer handwriting because they say it's easier to learn while writing.

✓ But if it is for learning, I prefer handwriting, because people say it is easier to learn while writing.

The original contains a repeated conjunction/phrase 'but it but it's' which is a speech disfluency and creates an ungrammatical structure. Also 'they say' is vague in formal correction—use 'people say' or 'research shows'. Fixes: remove repetition, expand contractions if desired, and replace 'they' with 'people' or 'research' for clarity.

× I type on laptop keyboard everyday because I do not have a desktop.

✓ I type on a laptop keyboard every day because I do not have a desktop.

Missing indefinite article 'a' before 'laptop keyboard' is an article error. Also 'everyday' (adjective) was used instead of the adverb phrase 'every day'. Correction adds 'a' and separates 'every day'. Suggestion: use 'a laptop keyboard' and 'every day' when indicating frequency.

× At a very young age, it was about 15 years ago I think.

✓ At a very young age; it was about 15 years ago, I think.

The sentence has punctuation/structure problems making the time reference unclear. 'At a very young age' and 'about 15 years ago' both indicate past time, so keep past tense context. The correction inserts proper punctuation to separate clauses. Suggestion: say 'I learned when I was very young, about 15 years ago.' to be clearer and use past tense 'learned'.

× Probably by typing more, because it's, uh, very important to do things again and again to learn better.

✓ Probably by typing more, because it is very important to do things again and again to learn better.

The original contains hesitation 'uh' which is a speech feature; remove it in written correction. The grammar use of '-ing' in 'typing more' is correct as a gerund indicating method. Change contraction 'it's' to 'it is' for clarity. Suggestion: keep gerund form for describing improvement method and remove filler words.
