Keys— Part 1 채점 보고서

제안: Be more concise and natural: start with a clear topic sentence, then give one or two specific supporting details. Correct unclear phrases (e.g. “swing them in my bells”) and avoid repetition. Use linking words if adding reasons.

예시: Yes, I usually carry several keys. For example, I have keys for my own house and my grandparents’ house, so I keep them on a keyring that I take whenever I leave home.

제안: Organize the answer: give a straightforward topic sentence (yes/no and when), then briefly describe what happened with clear, correct vocabulary. Avoid unclear or incorrect phrases (e.g. “LO losing key”, “did lasso”). Use linking words like 'but' or 'fortunately'.

예시: Yes, I once lost my keys last year. I looked everywhere and felt really anxious, but my mother helped me search and we eventually found them in my bedroom, which was a big relief.

제안: Answer directly and avoid redundancy. Start with a clear topic sentence, then give one concise reason or example. Correct phrasing (e.g. “on my belt” not “in my belt”) and avoid asking the examiner unrelated questions.

예시: No, I rarely forget my keys because I keep them on my belt when I go out. My mother used to remind me when I was a child, and that habit has stuck with me.

제안: Make your opinion clear and support it with one or two specific reasons. Use correct grammar (e.g. 'elderly people', 'relatives are not always available') and linking words like 'because' or 'for example'. Avoid vague generalizations.

예시: Yes, I think it can be a good idea because elderly people or busy relatives may need someone nearby to help. For example, my grandparents often go to their village and leave a spare key with a trusted neighbour in case of emergencies.

× Yes, I always bring a lot of keys because there are keys in my home and my grandparents home.

✓ Yes, I always bring a lot of keys because there are keys in my home and my grandparents' home.

The original misses the possessive apostrophe for 'grandparents'. Use the possessive form 'grandparents\' home' to show ownership. Also ensure consistency: 'there are keys in my home and my grandparents\' home.'

× I swing them in my bells when I go everywhere, they are always with me.

✓ I swing them on my belt when I go everywhere; they are always with me.

The phrase 'in my bells' is incorrect word choice and 'swing them on my belt' is idiomatic. Use a semicolon or separate sentences to avoid a comma splice. Present participle form isn't needed; the main issue is preposition and punctuation.

× I have lost them once.

✓ I lost them once.

Both present perfect and simple past can be correct, but 'once' with a specific past event is more natural with simple past 'I lost them once.' Use present perfect for unspecified time; use past for a completed event.

× I was very confused and anxious about the LO losing key so I keep finding them.

✓ I was very confused and anxious about losing the keys, so I kept looking for them.

Original has unclear phrase 'LO losing key' and tense mismatch 'keep finding'. Correct structure: 'losing the keys' and past tense 'kept looking for them' to match 'I was'. Use commas before conjunctions joining clauses.

× But fortunately I found them in my room.

✓ Fortunately, I found them in my room.

No need for 'but' after previous sentence; start with 'Fortunately' and add a comma. 'Found' is correct past tense (not past participle issue), but punctuation and connector improve clarity.

× My mother helped me with that.

✓ My mother helped me with that.

Sentence is correct; pronoun use is appropriate. No change needed.

× So it was lucky that I did lasso because it was a very dangerous thing.

✓ So I was lucky that I found them, because losing them could have been very dangerous.

Original 'did lasso' is incorrect and unclear. Replace with 'found them' and rephrase to express the intended meaning. Use conditional 'could have been' to indicate potential danger.

× No, I don't.

✓ No, I don't.

Sentence is correct; no third person singular error.

× I always remember to bring the keys with me and never forget the key.

✓ I always remember to bring my keys with me and never forget them.

Use consistent reference: 'my keys' and pronoun 'them' rather than mixing 'the keys' and 'the key'. This fixes article/pronoun inconsistency.

× I always bring them in my belt.

✓ I always keep them on my belt.

Use the preposition 'on' with 'belt'. Also 'keep' better expresses habit than 'bring' when describing where keys are kept.

× Do you remember I told you before?

✓ Do you remember that I told you before?

Add conjunction 'that' to introduce the reported clause for clearer sentence structure: 'Do you remember that I told you before?'. Alternatively, 'Do you remember me telling you before?' could be used.

× When I was young, my mom always showed me that don't forget your key.

✓ When I was young, my mom always told me, 'Don't forget your key.'

Use 'told me' not 'showed me' for giving verbal advice. Include direct speech punctuation (reported here with quotes conceptually) and correct imperative form 'Don't forget your key.' In reported speech: 'my mom always told me not to forget my key.'

× So I remember that for my whole life.

✓ So I have remembered that my whole life.

Use present perfect 'have remembered' to indicate a memory that continues to the present: 'I have remembered that my whole life.' Alternatively, 'I will remember that my whole life' if future intent.

× Yes, I think because there is an old seniors in China that goes a long distance, relatives is not better than the nearby neighbors.

✓ Yes, I think so, because there are elderly people in China who live far away; relatives are not necessarily better than nearby neighbors.

Original has number agreement and word choice errors: 'an old seniors' mixes singular and plural; use 'elderly people' or 'an elderly person'. Use 'there are' for plural and 'who' for the relative clause. 'Relatives are not necessarily better than nearby neighbors' fixes subject-verb agreement and clarity.

× And my grandparents always go to the village to spend their time, so they always leave their keys to the neighbors.

✓ My grandparents often go to the village to spend time, so they always leave their keys with the neighbors.

Use 'often' instead of 'always' for frequency if appropriate; 'spend time' is idiomatic without 'their'. Use 'leave their keys with the neighbors' rather than 'to the neighbors' for correct prepositional phrasing.
