Typing— Part 1 채점 보고서

제안: Start with a clear topic sentence, avoid minor grammar slips and redundancy, and add one specific reason or example. Use a linking word when adding detail.

예시: I prefer typing to handwriting because it is faster and helps me spot errors quickly with spell-check. For example, when I write emails or reports I can edit sentences instantly and save different versions, which makes the process more efficient.

제안: Begin with a direct answer, avoid uncertainty words like 'I don't think' and replace vague remarks with a concise specific detail or brief reason. Use a linking word to connect the second sentence.

예시: I use a laptop keyboard every day because I work remotely on my laptop. I haven't used a desktop keyboard recently; the last time was probably when I took a GRE practice exam a couple of years ago.

제안: Keep the answer focused and avoid filler words like 'I remember' repeated; combine sentences with linking words and give a specific detail about the program or result.

예시: I learned to type in elementary school through a special typing program. It was a gamified course that taught touch-typing, and because I enjoyed practicing regularly I developed speed and accuracy early on.

제안: Answer directly and avoid negative phrasing; if giving advice, separate personal practice from general tips and provide a specific improvement method with a linking word.

예시: I don't actively try to improve my typing now because I am satisfied with my speed and accuracy. However, for someone who wants to get better, I would recommend practicing with timed typing tests and lessons for 15–20 minutes daily, as this builds both speed and accuracy over time.

× 'I prefer typing so that I can catch my mistakes easily through spell check and it's faster and more convenient for me to type rather to write by hand.'

✓ 'I prefer typing so that I can catch my mistakes easily through spell check, and it's faster and more convenient for me to type rather than write by hand.'

'rather' should be followed by 'than' when making comparisons (correct structure: rather than + base verb). Also use parallel structure: "to type rather than write" (omit repeated "to"), and add a comma before the coordinating conjunction for clarity.

× 'I prefer typing so that I can catch my mistakes easily through spell check and it's faster and more convenient for me to type rather to write by hand.'

✓ 'I prefer typing so that I can catch my mistakes easily through spell check, and it's faster and more convenient for me to type rather than write by hand.'

'spell check' is a singular noun phrase; it's acceptable as is, but the original sentence combined ideas without proper punctuation causing potential run-on. Adding a comma before 'and' separates independent clauses for correct subject-verb pairing and clarity.

× 'Since I use a laptop for work, I only use a laptop keyboard every day.'

✓ 'Since I use a laptop for work, I use its keyboard every day.'

'only use a laptop keyboard every day' is redundant and slightly awkward. Using present simple 'use' is correct; revise to avoid repetition and improve naturalness: 'I use its keyboard every day.'

× 'I don't really try to improve my typing anymore since I feel that there isn't much of A need as I'm already quite adept at it, but I guess advice for someone who would want to improve is to use it every day.'

✓ 'I don't really try to improve my typing anymore since I feel that there isn't much of a need, as I'm already quite adept at it, but I guess my advice for someone who wants to improve is to use it every day.'

'A' should be lowercase 'a' and placed correctly: 'much of a need'. Also add commas for clause separation and change 'would want' to 'wants' to match the general advice context and present simple. Add 'my' before 'advice' for natural phrasing.

× 'I don't think I've used a desktop keyboard in a while. Maybe when taking a test for the GRE?'

✓ 'I don't think I've used a desktop keyboard in a while; maybe only when taking a test like the GRE.'

'Maybe when taking a test for the GRE?' is a fragment and informal. Use a semicolon or combine into one sentence and add 'only' and 'like' for clarity. Maintain present perfect 'I've used' to indicate experience up to now.

× 'It was a game where it taught you how to type and I remember I enjoyed it, so maybe that's why I'm so fast now.'

✓ 'It was a game that taught you how to type, and I remember enjoying it, so maybe that's why I'm so fast now.'

'where' is not the best relative pronoun for a program; use 'that' for a program or 'which'. Also change 'I remember I enjoyed it' to 'I remember enjoying it' for smoother structure and correct verb pattern after 'remember' when recalling past experiences.
