Headphones— Part 1 採点レポート

提案: Be more concise and natural: start with a clear topic sentence, then add one specific reason and a brief example. Avoid filler words and redundancy.

例: Yes, I sometimes use headphones, especially when I’m on phone calls. For example, I wear wireless earphones while cooking so I can move around the house and still hear the other person clearly.

提案: Give a clear, well-structured answer: name the type, explain one or two benefits with linking words, and avoid hesitations and grammar errors.

例: I use wireless Bluetooth earphones. They’re convenient because you don’t need to plug them into your phone, so you can leave your phone in another room and walk around freely.

提案: Structure your response with a clear topic sentence and one supporting detail. Reduce repetition and use linking words like 'for example' or 'so' correctly.

例: I usually use headphones when I’m on calls because I dislike using the speakerphone. For example, I wear them while cooking so I can continue the conversation and finish chores at the same time.

提案: Answer directly with one clear condition and a concise reason. Remove unnecessary repetition and filler words.

例: I wouldn’t use headphones when I’m alone in my room watching videos, because I don’t need to worry about disturbing anyone.

提案: State your preference clearly in one sentence, then give one specific reason. Avoid repeating phrases and correct small grammar issues.

例: Personally, I find headphones uncomfortable, so I’d prefer using speakerphone when possible because it feels less restrictive and more natural.

× I used the one that, uh, the wireless 1, so you don't have to, uh, plug it to your phone and you can just leave your phone in your room.

✓ I use the wireless one, so you don't have to plug it into your phone and you can just leave your phone in your room.

The student wrote 'I used the one' which incorrectly uses past tense where present is appropriate; also 'plug it to your phone' uses the wrong preposition. According to the context (describing usual device preference) present tense 'I use' is correct and the idiomatic preposition is 'plug into'. Suggestion: use present simple for habitual actions and 'plug into' for connecting devices.

× I used the one that, uh, the wireless 1, so you don't have to, uh, plug it to your phone and you can just leave your phone in your room.

✓ I use the wireless one, so you don't have to plug it into your phone and you can just leave your phone in your room.

The phrase 'the wireless 1' is likely a mistaken use of '1' instead of 'one' or 'pair' for countable headphones; corrected to 'the wireless one' to match singular noun 'headphones' as a single set. Suggestion: refer to 'one' or 'a pair' and ensure consistent singular/plural reference.

× so you don't have to, uh, plug it to your phone

✓ so you don't have to plug it into your phone

The correct preposition for connecting a plug is 'into' not 'to'. Use 'plug into' when inserting a plug into a device. Suggestion: learn common verb + preposition collocations like 'plug into'.

× I would prefer to use headphone when I am on call with someone because I don't really like to put them on speaker.

✓ I would prefer to use headphones when I am on a call with someone because I don't really like to put the call on speaker.

Count noun agreement: 'headphone' should be plural 'headphones' when referring to the device, and 'on call' is better as 'on a call'. Also 'put them on speaker' is unclear; better: 'put the call on speaker.' Suggestion: use plural for headphone items and specify 'the call' for clarity.

× So I tend to put it on headphones and then if I have to do something else like a cooking or or cleaning up, I still can call them while doing my activity.

✓ So I tend to put on my headphones, and then if I have to do something else like cooking or cleaning up, I can still talk to them while doing other activities.

Pronoun and verb choice errors: 'put it on headphones' incorrectly uses 'it' and wrong word order; use 'put on my headphones'. 'I still can call them' is unnatural for continuing the conversation — 'talk to them' is clearer. Article 'a' before 'cooking' is unnecessary. Suggestion: use correct pronouns ('my') and natural verbs ('talk to') and omit unnecessary articles with gerunds.

× I still can call them while doing my activity.

✓ I can still talk to them while doing other activities.

'Call them while doing my activity' is awkward. 'While doing other activities' is natural, and 'talk to them' better expresses maintaining a conversation. Suggestion: choose verbs that match the action (call vs talk) and use natural phrasing for multitasking.

× Mainly when I just watch something and I am alone in my room so I don't have to feel like I might uh, disturbing people around me because in my room I stay by myself and nobody really stay with me.

✓ Mainly when I just watch something and I am alone in my room, so I don't have to worry about disturbing people around me because I am by myself in my room and nobody else is with me.

Multiple preposition and verb form issues: 'feel like I might disturbing' should be 'worry about disturbing' or 'feel like I might be disturbing'. 'In my room I stay by myself' is unnatural; use 'I am by myself' and subject-verb agreement 'nobody else is with me.' Suggestion: use 'worry about' + gerund or 'be disturbing' with verb 'be', and ensure correct subject-verb agreement.

× Honestly for me I don't feel wearing headphones is very comfortable.

✓ Honestly, I don't find wearing headphones very comfortable.

Awkward pronoun and verb pattern: 'I don't feel wearing headphones is very comfortable' should use 'find' to express opinion: 'I don't find wearing headphones very comfortable.' Suggestion: use 'find' + noun/gerund to state personal impressions.

× I if I have a chance if I have to choose to wear headphones all the time or put my phone on speaker all the time, I would choose to put my phones on speaker all the time.

✓ If I had to choose between wearing headphones all the time or putting my phone on speaker all the time, I would choose to put my phone on speaker.

Multiple errors: redundant 'I if I have a chance if', incorrect conditional tense — use second conditional 'If I had to choose'. Use 'between ... or' and singular 'phone' consistent. Also avoid repeating 'all the time'. Suggestion: use correct conditional structure ('If I had to choose between A and B, I would ...') and ensure singular/plural consistency.
