Clothing— Part 1 採点レポート

提案: Clarify meaning and correct word choice, shorten redundancy, and add a specific example. Start with a clear topic sentence, then one brief supporting detail with linking phrase. Watch for vocabulary mistakes (e.g., 'rats' → 'dresses' or 'prints').

例: I prefer wearing dresses because they look elegant and boost my confidence. For example, I often choose bright-coloured floral dresses for parties because they stand out and suit my style.

提案: Good direct answer and example. Improve by using a linking phrase and correcting minor grammar (use articles and plural forms). Add one more specific reason to enrich response without exceeding length limit.

例: I prefer comfortable, casual clothes because my job doesn’t require a uniform. For example, I usually wear jeans and a soft jumper for everyday activities, since they are practical and let me move freely.

提案: Good structure and personal detail. Fix subject-verb agreement and improve coherence by using a linking word. Provide a brief specific example of a favourite T-shirt to make it more vivid.

例: Yes, I do. T-shirts are comfortable and let me move easily. In particular, I like cartoon-printed T-shirts because they look fun and reflect my personality — for instance, I have a T‑shirt with a vintage cartoon character that I wear when meeting friends.

提案: Answer is enthusiastic but grammar and phrasing need correction. Use a clear topic sentence, then one concise supporting reason with linking phrase. Correct infinitive and plural forms, and give a specific example of planning an outfit.

例: Absolutely. I enjoy taking time to choose clothes because I like mixing pieces for different occasions. For example, I plan several outfits before a wedding so I can pick the best combination of dress, shoes and accessories.

提案: Clear contrast and examples — improve grammar (articles and plural forms) and use a linking word for contrast. Slightly shorten to two to three sentences and be specific about style differences.

例: Yes. On weekdays I usually dress smart-casual, for example a shirt and chinos for work, whereas on weekends I prefer T-shirts and jeans because they’re more comfortable for relaxing or meeting friends.

提案: Good idea but grammar and vocabulary mistakes reduce clarity. Use one concise topic sentence, then a specific reason with correct phrasing. Replace unclear fragments (e.g., 'their brights, pastel shade, live my mood') with coherent clauses and one example of a favourite outfit.

例: I prefer light colours like pink, yellow and sky blue because they make me feel cheerful. For example, I often wear a pastel pink sundress in summer since the colour lifts my mood and looks fresh.

× I like to wear dresses because they look gorgeous and elegant and make me feel confident, and I often choose rats in bright colour.

✓ I like to wear dresses because they look gorgeous and elegant and make me feel confident, and I often choose skirts in bright colours.

The word 'rats' is clearly a wrong lexical choice; context indicates 'skirts' or 'dresses'. 'Colour' should be plural 'colours' when referring generally to bright colours. This is an incorrect use of quantifiers/word choice and plural form. Suggestion: use the correct noun ('skirts') and pluralize 'colour' when speaking about types or varieties: 'bright colours'.

× For example, I usually choose jeans or soft jumper for everyday activity.

✓ For example, I usually choose jeans or a soft jumper for everyday activities.

The countable noun 'jumper' requires an article 'a' when singular. Also 'activity' should be plural 'activities' to match the general statement. Suggestion: add 'a' before singular countable nouns and use plural for general habitual activities.

× Yes, I like wearing T-shirts because they are comfortable for everyday activity and easy to move in. I especially prefer ones with cartoon prints since they look fun and reflects my personality.

✓ Yes, I like wearing T-shirts because they are comfortable for everyday activities and easy to move in. I especially prefer ones with cartoon prints since they look fun and reflect my personality.

'Activity' should be plural 'activities' (general habitual meaning). More importantly, subject-verb agreement error: 'they look fun and reflects' — 'they' requires the base plural verb 'reflect', not 'reflects'. This is an incorrect use of pronouns/subject-verb agreement. Suggestion: use plural verbs with plural pronouns: 'they look... and reflect...'.

× Absolutely. Not only I like to spend a lot of time to choosing clothes, but also I like to buy different kinds of clothes because I can wear a lot of combination for difference occasion.

✓ Absolutely. Not only do I like to spend a lot of time choosing clothes, but I also like to buy different kinds of clothes because I can wear many combinations for different occasions.

Several issues: the 'Not only... but also' correlative requires inversion: 'Not only do I like...'. 'to choosing' is incorrect; after 'like to' or 'like -ing' use one form: here 'spend time choosing' is correct. 'a lot of combination' should be 'many combinations' (quantifier and plural). 'difference occasion' should be 'different occasions' (adjective form and plural). These are conjunction, verb form, quantifier, and adjective errors. Suggestion: use correct correlative structure, use 'spend time choosing', and pluralize/count nouns appropriately.

× On weekdays when I go to work I typically dress more casual, for example a shirt and a chinos.

✓ On weekdays when I go to work I typically dress more casually, for example a shirt and chinos.

'Chinos' is plural so should not have 'a' before it; 'a chinos' is incorrect. Also 'dress more casual' is colloquial but grammatically should be 'dress more casually' (adverb modifying 'dress'). Suggestion: remove the article before plural 'chinos' and use the adverb 'casually'.

× Yes, I wear different styles on weekends and weekdays. On weekdays when I go to work I typically dress more casual, for example a shirt and a chinos. While on weekends I prefer T-shirts and jeans because they are more comfortable for relaxing and meeting friends.

✓ Yes, I wear different styles on weekends and weekdays. On weekdays when I go to work I typically dress more casually, for example a shirt and chinos. On weekends I prefer T-shirts and jeans because they are more comfortable for relaxing and meeting friends.

Beginning a sentence with 'While' here creates a sentence fragment or awkward contrast; better to join or use 'On weekends' to start the sentence. This is an incorrect use of conjunction/ sentence structure. Suggestion: use full sentences or proper conjunction placement: 'On weekends I prefer...'.

× I prefer light colors for my clothes such as pink, yellow, and sky blue because these colors make me feel cheerful. I often wear them in spring and summer since they their brights, pastel shade, live my mood and look fresh.

✓ I prefer light colors for my clothes such as pink, yellow, and sky blue because these colors make me feel cheerful. I often wear them in spring and summer since their bright, pastel shades lift my mood and look fresh.

Multiple errors: 'they their brights' is ungrammatical; should be 'their bright, pastel shades'. 'live my mood' is incorrect; intended verb is 'lift' (meaning improve). 'shade' should be plural 'shades' to match 'bright, pastel'. These are adjective/adverb and word choice errors. Suggestion: use correct collocations 'bright pastel shades' and the verb 'lift' with 'mood'.
