Tiredness— Part 1 採点レポート

提案: Your answer is direct and relevant, and you give two clear reasons. However, “do exercise” is less natural than “exercise” or “work out.” You could also add a brief result or example to make the answer more developed while keeping it concise.

例: No, I don’t often feel tired. I mainly feel that way when I work out intensely or when I haven’t slept well the night before. Otherwise, I usually feel energetic during the day.

提案: You answer the question and mention several relevant situations, but the sentence is repetitive and the linking is unclear. Use a more natural structure, such as “I usually feel tired after...” Also, “after the gym” should be changed to “after going to the gym” or “after a workout.”

例: I usually feel tired after a strenuous workout or after going to the gym. I also feel exhausted after a particularly stressful day. Apart from those situations, I’m generally relaxed and energetic.

提案: You provide several suitable ways to relax, but “take a deep sleep” is not natural English; say “get some sleep,” “take a nap,” or “have a good night’s sleep.” Avoid repeating “whenever I feel tired,” and use linking words to organize the list more smoothly.

例: When I feel tired, I usually take a short nap or meditate for a few minutes. If I’m particularly tense, I might get a massage at a spa. These activities help me relax and regain my energy.

提案: Your response gives a clear answer and a good reason, but “say them no” should be “say no to them” or, more naturally, “turn them down.” The answer would sound more natural if you avoided repeating “tired” and used a clearer linking phrase before explaining the benefit of spending time with your friends.

例: Yes, I usually still go out with my friends, unless I’m completely exhausted. I don’t like turning them down because I enjoy their company, and socializing often helps me feel better. However, I might choose a quieter activity instead of staying out late.

× If I'm tired and my friends are going out, I never say them no.

✓ If I'm tired and my friends are going out, I never say no to them.

The expression is say no to someone, not say someone no. The preposition to is required before the person who receives the refusal.
