Building— Part 1 채점 보고서

제안: Clarify meaning and correct vocabulary, be concise, and use a topic sentence followed by one supporting detail. Avoid unclear words like “moats” and “type of one-on-one.” Use linking words if adding detail.

예시: Yes. I live in the city center, so there are many tall apartment and office buildings near my home. For example, a 20‑storey office tower is just two blocks away, which makes the area quite busy.

제안: Start with a clear direct answer, then give one or two concise, relevant reasons using linking words. Avoid filler phrases like “we have to be honest” or “you know.”

예시: Not usually. The buildings here are mostly plain in design, and I also avoid photographing residential homes out of respect for people’s privacy.

제안: Give a direct answer first, then expand briefly with a reason or detail. Keep sentences short and avoid repetition. Mention why you want to visit even if it’s not strictly a building.

예시: Yes. I would like to visit the Statue of Liberty in the US because it is an important symbol of freedom and I want to see it up close and take photos.

제안: Respond directly and give clear supporting details using linking words. Avoid repeated words and informal fillers. Provide a concise reason and one specific detail about preference.

예시: No, I wouldn't. I'm afraid of heights, so I prefer a wooden house because it feels cozy and I enjoy the natural scent and warm atmosphere of wood.

× Yeah, I'm living in the city center, so around my house there are a lot of moats and they're pretty tall and also the type of one-on-one is near nearby my house.

✓ Yes, I live in the city center, so there are a lot of tall buildings around my house, and a one-on-one type (or 'one-on-one facility' if appropriate) is near my house.

The present continuous 'I'm living' is not normally used for permanent states such as where you live; use simple present 'I live' (Present tense issue). 'There are a lot of moats' seems incorrect in context; likely intended 'buildings'. Word order and redundancy 'near nearby' is incorrect; use 'near my house' or 'nearby'. Improve clarity by choosing the correct noun and removing redundant words.

× Not really. We have to be honest, Taiwanese buildings are really are not good looking.

✓ Not really. To be honest, Taiwanese buildings are not very good-looking.

'We have to be honest' is awkward in this context; 'To be honest' is the idiomatic phrase (Article errors also covers misuse of phrase here as it affects sentence correctness). Remove the duplicated 'are' and use hyphenated compound adjective 'good-looking'. Use 'not very' for softer negative.

× So and also you know, for people's privacy, I don't like to take photo of residential houses.

✓ Also, for people's privacy, I don't like to take photos of residential houses.

Use 'take photos' (plural) or 'take a photo' (singular). The preposition 'of' is acceptable but collocation prefers 'take photos of'; remove extra fillers 'So and also you know' to improve fluency. 'Residential houses' can be simplified to 'residential buildings' or 'people's homes'.

× Oh, I've never thought of the question before, but never think I would say I would like to go to the US to see the Statue of Liberty, even if it doesn't count as a building.

✓ Oh, I've never thought about that question before, but I think I would like to go to the US to see the Statue of Liberty, even though it isn't exactly a building.

Use 'thought about that question' (correct preposition). 'Never think I would say' is ungrammatical and mixes tenses; replace with 'I think I would like' to express current opinion. 'Doesn't count as a building' is informal; 'isn't exactly a building' is clearer. Present perfect 'I've never thought' is fine for past experience, but wording needed adjustment.

× No, absolute absolutely not. I'm afraid of height, so I prefer to live in a wooden house.

✓ No, absolutely not. I'm afraid of heights, so I would prefer to live in a wooden house.

'Absolute absolutely not' is redundant; use 'absolutely not'. 'Afraid of height' should be 'afraid of heights' (common collocation). 'I prefer to live' is acceptable but 'I would prefer to live' is more natural when expressing a hypothetical preference.

× I like the atmosphere and the smells of wood, so yeah.

✓ I like the atmosphere and the smell of wood, so yes.

Use singular 'the smell of wood' to refer to the general scent; 'smells' could be plural but 'smell' is more natural. 'So yeah' is informal; 'so yes' is slightly more formal and fits speaking test context.
