Clothing— Part 1 採点レポート

提案: Your answer is clear and relevant, but you can improve by adding one specific example and a linking phrase to make it more natural and informative. Avoid repeating similar ideas (comfortable / move around quickly) and keep it within 2–3 sentences.

例: I prefer wearing sportswear because it’s very comfortable and allows me to move freely. For example, I often wear track pants and a moisture-wicking top when I go jogging or run errands, which helps me stay relaxed and active.

提案: You answered directly but repeated the word 'comfortable' and used a sentence fragment. Combine ideas with linking words and give a brief reason or example to strengthen your response. Keep it concise and grammatically complete.

例: I definitely prefer comfortable, casual clothes because they’re more practical for my daily activities. For instance, I usually wear a hoodie and jeans when I go shopping or take a walk, which makes it easier to move and relax.

提案: Good content and structure; you give supporting details. Improve cohesion by using linking phrases and a small correction ('pair down' → 'pair them') and avoid listing too many items in separate short sentences.

例: Absolutely — I like wearing T-shirts because they’re very versatile. For example, I pair them with jeans or shorts for everyday wear, and sometimes with a skirt for a slightly dressier look.

提案: The answer is informal and contains errors ('Nuts really', 'whatever is clean'). Use polite, natural phrasing, correct grammar, and give a brief reason with linking words. Avoid slang or fragments.

例: Not really. I don’t spend much time choosing clothes because I prefer to keep things simple; I usually pick whatever is clean and convenient, especially on busy mornings.

提案: The idea is clear but there is a small grammar mistake ('week weekends') and the response is short. Use linking words and correct phrasing, and add a brief example to show contrast.

例: Yes, I do. On weekdays I wear my work uniform, but at the weekend I usually switch to casual clothes like jeans and a T-shirt so I can relax.

提案: Good direct answer with reasons. Improve by varying vocabulary (plain → neutral) and using a linking word for contrast. Make sentences slightly more natural and avoid repetition ('with other clothes or with other colors').

例: I prefer neutral colours such as black and white because they’re easy to mix and match. I avoid very bright patterns because I feel they don’t suit my personal style.

× I prefer wearing sports wear because it feels very comfortable and helps me to move around quickly.

✓ I prefer wearing sportswear because it feels very comfortable and helps me move around quickly.

Use of verb 'helps' followed by to-infinitive is acceptable but more natural to use bare infinitive 'help me move'. Also 'sportswear' is one word. Suggestion: use 'help me move' and 'sportswear' for natural collocation.

× I definitely prefer comfortable and casual clothes because they are more comfortable. Easy to go everywhere for shopping or to go for a walk.

✓ I definitely prefer comfortable and casual clothes because they are easier to wear and convenient for shopping or going for a walk.

Second fragment 'Easy to go...' is a sentence fragment lacking a subject and verb. Also repetition of 'comfortable' is redundant. Use a complete clause with subject and verb and parallel gerund forms: 'for shopping or going for a walk'.

× I usually pair down with jeans or shorts or sometimes with skirts for special occasions.

✓ I usually pair them with jeans or shorts, or sometimes with skirts for special occasions.

The phrase 'pair down' is incorrect; collocation is 'pair (something) with'. The pronoun for 'T-shirts' is 'them'. Use 'pair them with' to be grammatically correct.

× Nuts really. 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.

'Nuts really' is incorrect and likely intended as 'Not really'. 'Not really' is a common response. Ensure the sentence begins with a negative adverb and is a complete clause.

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

✓ I usually choose whatever clothes are clean and convenient.

Word order and relative clause are incorrect. 'Whatever' should directly modify 'clothes' and verb must agree: plural 'clothes are'. Move 'whatever' before 'clothes' and use plural verb.

× I wear work uniform on weekdays but I wear informal clothes on week weekends.

✓ I wear a work uniform on weekdays, but I wear informal clothes on weekends.

Use the article 'a' before 'work uniform'. 'Week weekends' is redundant; use 'weekends'. Add a comma before 'but' to join clauses. Ensure noun phrases are correct.

× I like plain colors like black or white because it's easy to match with other clothes or with other colors.

✓ I like plain colors like black or white because they're easy to match with other clothes or colors.

Pronoun 'it' does not agree with plural 'colors'; use 'they're'. Also 'with other clothes or colors' is more concise.

× I don't like colorful things because I think it doesn't suit me.

✓ I don't like colorful things because I think they don't suit me.

Pronoun 'it' is singular but refers to plural 'colorful things'. Use plural 'they' and plural verb 'don't suit' for subject-verb agreement.
