Typing— Part 1 채점 보고서

제안: Be more concise and natural. Start with a direct topic sentence, then give one or two specific reasons using linking words. Avoid unnecessary words like "actually" and repeated phrasing.

예시: I prefer typing to handwriting because it’s more flexible and allows easy editing. For example, when I write reports I can quickly correct mistakes and reorganise paragraphs without starting over.

제안: Improve grammar and fluency. Give a clear topic sentence, correct verb forms, and one brief supporting detail. Reduce hesitations and repetition.

예시: I use my laptop keyboard every day because my job requires constant computer work. For instance, I write emails and update documents throughout the day.

제안: Clarify meaning and correct vocabulary/grammar. Use past tense correctly and avoid asking the examiner questions. Provide a specific time reference and a brief reason or context.

예시: I didn’t receive formal typing lessons. I began practising keyboard typing after I graduated and started my first job, about three years ago, because I needed to communicate with clients by email.

제안: Remove fillers and use clear structure: one direct sentence plus a supporting detail with linking words. Mention a specific method or routine you used to improve typing speed and accuracy.

예시: I improved my typing mainly through regular practice at work. For example, because I chatted with clients daily I practised touch-typing and used online typing tests to increase my speed and accuracy.

× Actually, I prefer typing more than handwriting since it's more flexible and we can easily edit the text.

✓ Actually, I prefer typing to handwriting since it's more flexible and we can easily edit the text.

Use of the comparative phrase 'prefer X more than Y' with 'prefer' is nonstandard. 'Prefer' is typically followed by 'to' when comparing two options (prefer A to B). This keeps the present tense and meaning intact.

× I type on my laptop keyboard every day seeing my work.

✓ I type on my laptop keyboard every day because of my work.

The phrase 'seeing my work' is incorrect here. A present participle phrase should clearly modify the subject; 'seeing my work' is unclear and ungrammatical. Replacing it with 'because of my work' clarifies the reason and preserves the present tense.

× Uh, my job requiring me to use the laptop every day.

✓ Uh, my job requires me to use the laptop every day.

The original uses a present participle 'requiring' where a finite verb is needed to agree with the singular subject 'my job'. Change to third-person singular present 'requires' to ensure subject-verb agreement.

× Actually I never learned how to tie on the keyboard before.

✓ Actually I never learned how to type on the keyboard before.

The word 'tie' is a spelling error for 'type'. 'Learned' is past tense and appropriate here; correcting the verb form corrects the meaning without changing tense.

× I just started to time the keyboard more when I graduated.

✓ I just started to type on the keyboard more when I graduated.

'Time the keyboard' is incorrect; likely intended 'type on the keyboard'. 'Started to type' is acceptable; use the base verb 'type' after 'started to' to form a correct infinitive construction.

× Is that a first job?

✓ Was that my first job?

The question 'Is that a first job?' is ungrammatical for referring to a past event. Use past tense 'Was' and correct pronoun 'my' to match context asking whether the job mentioned was the student's first job.

× Umm, when I learned my first job, I started to umm, type in the keyboard more since my work requiring me to, uh, chatting with our client every day.

✓ Umm, when I started my first job, I began to type on the keyboard more because my work required me to chat with our clients every day.

Multiple issues corrected while following allowed problem types: 'learned my first job' is incorrect event phrasing — use 'started my first job' (sentence structure). 'Type in the keyboard' should be 'type on the keyboard' (preposition usage). 'My work requiring me to' lacked a finite verb — change to 'my work required me to' (subject-verb agreement/past tense). 'Chatting with our client every day' should be the infinitive 'to chat' and plural 'clients' if referring generally; changed to 'chat with our clients every day' to be grammatical and consistent in past context.
