Typing— Part 1 採点レポート

提案: Be direct and concise with correct grammar. Start with a clear topic sentence, avoid filler sounds (uh), and correct verb forms (e.g., 'I have to use a laptop'). Add one brief reason using a linking word (e.g., 'because').

例: I prefer handwriting because I find it helps me remember things better. However, I have to use a laptop more often now, so I’m also working on my typing speed.

提案: Give a clear topic sentence and avoid repetition ('a a chance'). Use a linking word to connect explanation (e.g., 'because' or 'so'). Fix small grammar points: 'I only have a laptop' or 'I don't have the opportunity to use a desktop.' Keep it to one or two supporting sentences.

例: I type on a laptop keyboard every day because I only own a laptop and don’t have access to a desktop. As a result, I’ve become comfortable with the laptop layout.

提案: Use correct tense and verb forms. Start with a clear topic sentence stating the time (e.g., 'I learned to type when I was six'). Remove filler. Provide a brief supporting detail using a linking word (e.g., 'because' or 'after').

例: I learned to type when I was six because my parents bought me a computer for studying. After that, I practiced regularly using simple typing games.

提案: Respond directly and use clear grammar. Begin with a topic sentence (e.g., 'I improve my typing by...'). Give specific methods and use linking words (e.g., 'so', 'for example'). Avoid vague phrases like 'this is.'

例: I improve my typing mostly through regular practice; for example, I type essays and messages daily to build speed. I also use online typing exercises occasionally to correct mistakes and increase accuracy.

× Actually I prefer handwriting, but these days, uh, I should to use laptop, so that's why I also need to type quickly.

✓ Actually I prefer handwriting, but these days I have to use a laptop, so I also need to type quickly.

The error is using 'should to' which incorrectly combines modal 'should' with 'to' and is not appropriate for obligation here. Use 'have to' for necessity or 'should' without 'to' for advice. Also add the article 'a' before 'laptop' and remove filler 'uh' and redundant 'that's why'. Improve fluency by linking cause and effect: 'I have to use a laptop, so I also need to type quickly.'

× I type on laptop keyboard because I have only a laptop, so I don't have a a chance to use desktop for typing.

✓ I type on a laptop keyboard because I only have a laptop, so I don't have a chance to use a desktop for typing.

Missing and duplicate articles: 'laptop keyboard' needs 'a' and 'desktop' needs 'a'. Also the phrase 'have only a laptop' is more natural as 'only have a laptop'. Remove the duplicated 'a'. These changes fix article usage and word order.

× I learn. I have learned to typing when I was, uh, six and my parents bought me a computer for my study.

✓ I learned to type when I was six, after my parents bought me a computer for my studies.

Mixed tense and verb form errors: 'I learn' is incorrect for past event; use past tense 'I learned'. 'Have learned to typing' mixes present perfect with incorrect 'to typing' (gerund). Use simple past 'learned to type' for a finished action at a specific past time. Also 'for my study' should be 'for my studies' to be natural. Remove filler 'uh' and combine clauses for clarity.

× To be honest, I didn't make some special exercise for improving my typing skill. I just typed and typed and this is.

✓ To be honest, I didn't do any special exercises to improve my typing skills. I just practiced a lot.

Incorrect verb choice and countability: 'make some special exercise' is unnatural; use 'do any special exercises'. 'For improving' should be 'to improve' (infinitive of purpose). 'Typing skill' is better as plural 'typing skills'. The fragment 'and this is' is incomplete and should be replaced with a clear phrase such as 'I just practiced a lot.'
