Clothing— Part 1 採点レポート

提案: Make the answer slightly more specific and add one brief supporting detail using a linking word. Keep it natural and within 3–4 sentences.

例: I prefer wearing casual or sportswear because it’s more comfortable and helps me relax. For example, I often choose sweatshirts and joggers when I study or go out, as they let me move freely and stay comfortable throughout the day.

提案: This is a clear direct answer. Improve by using a linking word and adding a brief specific situation to justify the opinion for greater coherence and content richness.

例: I definitely prefer casual clothes because they allow me to move around more easily and make me feel relaxed. For instance, I wear comfortable sneakers and hoodies when I have classes or meet friends, which helps me stay confident.

提案: Avoid repetition and consolidate into one concise response with a linking phrase and a specific example of how you use T-shirts to show versatility.

例: Absolutely — T-shirts are very versatile, so I wear them for many occasions. For example, I pair plain T-shirts with jeans for casual days or layer printed ones under a jacket for a smarter look.

提案: Correct grammar and avoid blunt phrases like “waste of time.” Use a linking word and give a specific brief routine to explain how you choose clothes. Keep sentences natural and error-free.

例: Not really. I don’t spend much time choosing clothes because I prefer simple routines; usually I pick whatever is clean and comfortable, such as a plain T-shirt and jeans for everyday use.

提案: Good content and direct structure. Improve fluidity by using linking words and a slightly more specific contrast (what you wear on weekends vs weekdays).

例: Yes, I wear different styles: on weekdays I wear a uniform for school, whereas on weekends I usually wear informal clothes like jeans and T-shirts or sportswear when I go out.

提案: Strong short answer. To be even better, add a linking word and a brief reason or example describing when you choose those colors to show practical thinking.

例: I prefer plain colors like white or black because they’re easy to match. For example, I often choose a white T-shirt or black hoodie when I’m packing for a trip since they go with most jeans or shorts.

× I prefer wearing casual or sportswear because it's more comfortable and helps me relax.

✓ I prefer to wear casual or sportswear because it's more comfortable and helps me relax.

Both 'prefer + -ing' and 'prefer + to-infinitive' are possible, but for clarity and parallelism with later answers using 'prefer to wear', use the to-infinitive. This keeps form consistent and avoids subtle style mismatch. Suggestion: use 'I prefer to wear...'.

× I definitely prefer wearing casual or comfortable clothes because it's easier to move around and also I feel more confident with those clothes.

✓ I definitely prefer to wear casual or comfortable clothes because it's easier to move around and I also feel more confident in those clothes.

Similar to above, use the to-infinitive for consistency: 'prefer to wear'. Also change word order and preposition: 'feel more confident in' is the correct collocation. Move 'also' before the verb for natural flow.

× I like wearing T-shirts because it's more versatile.

✓ I like wearing T-shirts because they're more versatile.

The subject 'T-shirts' is plural, so the pronoun and verb must agree: use 'they're' (they are) instead of 'it's'. This fixes number agreement.

× I have a lot of T-shirts with different designs and colors, so yes, I like wearing T-shirts.

✓ I have a lot of T-shirts with different designs and colors, so yes, I like wearing them.

Avoid repetition by using the plural pronoun 'them' to refer back to 'T-shirts'. This is clearer and more natural.

× Not actually. I don't spend a lot of time choosing clothes because it's a waste of time for me.

✓ Not really. I don't spend a lot of time choosing clothes because it's a waste of time for me.

'Not actually' is not the natural short response here; 'Not really' better expresses the intended meaning. The rest is grammatically acceptable.

× I usually choose the clothes what is clean and convenient.

✓ I usually choose clothes that are clean and convenient.

Use the relative pronoun 'that' (or 'which') instead of 'what' in this restrictive relative clause. Also ensure subject-verb agreement: 'clothes' is plural, so use 'are' not 'is'.

× I wear different styles of clothes on weekends and weekdays because in weekdays I wear uniform but on weekends I wear informal clothes.

✓ I wear different styles of clothes on weekdays and at weekends because on weekdays I wear a uniform but at weekends I wear informal clothes.

Use consistent prepositions: 'on weekdays' and 'at weekends' (both 'on' or 'at' vary regionally; choose one pattern consistently). Also include the article 'a uniform' for singular count noun. Reorder to match the question's weekday/weekend order.

× I like plain colors like white or black because it's easier to match with other clothes such as jeans or shorts.

✓ I like plain colors like white or black because they're easier to match with other clothes such as jeans or shorts.

'Colors' is plural, so use 'they're' instead of 'it's' for agreement. This corrects number agreement between subject and verb/pronoun.
