Keys— Part 1 채점 보고서

제안: Be clear, concise and correct word choices. Start with a direct topic sentence answering the question, then add 1–2 specific details using linking words. Avoid unnecessary repetition and minor grammar errors (e.g., 'teas' → 'keys'; finish the final thought).

예시: Yes, I usually carry several keys. For example, I have keys for my basement, my room, my car, and a small cabinet drawer, so I often have four keys on my keyring.

제안: Provide a concise story with clear sequence markers and more precise vocabulary. Use linking words (e.g., 'when', 'so', 'then') and avoid vague adjectives like 'terrible' without explanation. Keep to 3–4 sentences.

예시: Yes, I once lost my bike key while I was at college. I used to ride to campus every day, and one afternoon I realised the key was missing. I went to a locksmith who cut a replacement, which was expensive and inconvenient.

제안: Avoid filler sounds and pronunciation mistakes ('Keith' → 'keys'; 'oftenly' → 'often'). Use clear past tense when telling a single past incident and link events logically. Limit to 3–4 sentences.

예시: No, I don't often forget my keys, but once I did. I accidentally left them at the office and locked myself out of my flat, so I had to return to the office to get them, which was very stressful.

제안: Give a clear direct opinion first and then support it with specific reasons and a short example. Use linking words like 'however' and 'because', and avoid overgeneralised statements like 'you can't trust'—explain the risk.

예시: Generally, I wouldn't leave my keys with a neighbour because it can be risky. However, if I'm away and expecting a guest, I might ask a trusted neighbour to help because they can let the guest in and keep the keys temporarily.

× Yes, I always bring a lot of teas with me.

✓ Yes, I always bring a lot of keys with me.

The student used 'teas' instead of 'keys', which is a word choice error rather than a grammar category listed; however it creates a count noun/plural issue and article problem because 'a lot of' requires a countable noun here. Replace with the correct countable noun 'keys' to match the question and keep plural form 'keys' after 'a lot of'.

× I have keys for my basement entrance door, then my room entrance door and for my vehicle, and lastly it's for my drawers, which are in the cabinets of my cupboard.

✓ I have keys for my basement entrance, my room entrance, my vehicle, and finally for my drawers in the cupboard.

The phrase used repeated 'entrance door' and awkward preposition use 'in the cabinets of my cupboard'. Use 'entrance' or 'entrance door' consistently and simplify prepositions. 'For' is correct with 'keys for', but shorten and reorder items with commas and 'finally' for clarity.

× So in total there are.

✓ So in total there are several keys.

The original is a sentence fragment missing the noun or number after 'there are'. Add a noun phrase such as 'several keys' or the exact number to complete the sentence and satisfy subject-complement structure.

× Yes, when I was in my college, I lost my keys for the bike.

✓ Yes, when I was in college, I lost my bike keys.

'In my college' is non-idiomatic; native speakers say 'in college'. 'Keys for the bike' is understandable but 'bike keys' is more natural. Tense 'lost' is correct past tense; this suggestion focuses on idiomatic phrasing.

× I had a bike and I used to travel on it from my home to my college and vice versa, and I lost it in the college.

✓ I had a bike and I used to ride it from my home to college and back, and I lost it at college.

Use 'ride' with a bike rather than 'travel on it'. 'College' does not need 'my' in this context and 'vice versa' is replaced with 'and back' for clarity. Use preposition 'at' with 'college' when describing where something was lost.

× Then I went to a key master and he made new keys for me.

✓ Then I went to a locksmith and he made new keys for me.

Tense and structure are fine, but 'key master' is nonstandard; 'locksmith' is the correct term. Keep past simple 'went' and 'made' for completed actions.

× It was a terrible.

✓ It was terrible.

'Terrible' is an adjective; the article 'a' should not be used before a non-count adjective used predicatively. Remove 'a' to form the correct predicate adjective phrase.

× No, I don't uh, forget Keith oftenly, but it had happened with me once, so I accidentally locked myself out and I forgot my keys in the office.

✓ No, I don't usually forget my keys, but it happened to me once: I accidentally locked myself out and left my keys in the office.

Multiple issues: 'Keith' is a mispronunciation/misspelling of 'keys' (noun error). 'Oftenly' is nonstandard; use 'often' or 'usually'. 'It had happened with me once' uses past perfect incorrectly and awkward preposition; use simple past 'it happened to me once'. Also 'forgot my keys in the office' is acceptable but 'left my keys in the office' is more idiomatic. Fix pronouns and verb forms accordingly.

× It was very stressful.

✓ It was very stressful.

This sentence is grammatically correct; no change needed. Included for completeness.

× I had to go back to my office, find the keys, and then come back home.

✓ I had to go back to my office to find the keys and then come back home.

Original is acceptable but better parallel structure uses infinitive 'to find' after 'had to go back'. This keeps the sentence clear and grammatically parallel.

× It too.

✓ It was too stressful.

'It too' is a fragment and unclear. Likely intended 'It was too' or 'That was too'. Complete the sentence with the verb 'was' and an adjective 'stressful' to convey meaning.

× I believe it's not a good idea leaving keys to the neighbor always.

✓ I believe it's not a good idea to leave keys with the neighbor all the time.

Use infinitive 'to leave' after 'idea'. Use 'leave keys with' (not 'to') and 'all the time' instead of 'always' at end. 'Neighbor' spelling fixed to American 'neighbor' or British 'neighbour' depending on variety; keep consistent.

× But sometimes if there is a special requirement like if a guest is coming to your place and you will not be at home during that particular moment, then you can give it to your neighbor.

✓ But sometimes, if there is a special situation—such as a guest coming to your place and you will not be home at that time—you can give the key to your neighbor.

Avoid double 'if' construction and replace 'requirement like if' with 'situation such as'. Use 'home at that time' instead of 'at that particular moment'. Use singular 'key' or 'set of keys' depending on context; 'give the key' is clearer.

× But otherwise, always leaving it with the neighbor is risky because you can't trust.

✓ But otherwise, always leaving it with the neighbor is risky because you can't always trust them.

'Leaving it' is vague—specify 'the key' or 'your keys'. 'You can't trust' is incomplete; add the object 'them' or 'someone' and 'always' for clarity. Also maintain pronoun agreement: 'them' refers to 'neighbor'.
