Politeness— Part 1 채점 보고서

제안: Cevap doğrudan ve anlaşılır ancak daha doğal, akıcı ve detaylı olmalı. Konu cümlesinden sonra kısa bir bağlaç kullanarak (ör. “for example” yerine “for instance” veya “they would often…”) davranışların nasıl öğretildiğini somut bir örnekle belirtin. Ayrıca dil bilgisi düzeltmeleri yapın (örn. “when you talk to elders, be polite and be respectful” → “when you talk to elders, you should be polite and respectful”). Cümle uzunluğunu 3–5 cümle arasında tutun ve tekrarlardan kaçının.

예시: I learned manners mainly from my parents. For instance, they often reminded me to greet elders first and to use polite phrases like “please” and “thank you.” They also modeled respectful behaviour, so I picked up these habits by watching them.

제안: Fikri güzel ifade etmişsiniz ancak dilbilgisi ve akıcılık üzerinde çalışın. “If you be polite” yerine “If we are polite” gibi doğru yapı kullanın. Cümleleri daha mantıklı bağlaçlarla birleştirin (ör. “because” ve “so”) ve somut sonuçlar verin. Önerilen uzunluk 2–4 cümle; gereksiz tekrarları çıkarın.

예시: Yes, I think being polite is very important because it helps prevent conflicts and makes social interactions smoother. If we are polite to others, even small misunderstandings are less likely to escalate, so people feel more comfortable and respected.

× For example, they told me when you talk to elders, be polite and be respectful.

✓ For example, they told me that when I talked to elders, I should be polite and respectful.

The original mixes second person 'you' with first person 'they told me', creating a pronoun/reference mismatch and incorrect reported speech structure. Use 'that' to introduce reported speech, keep pronouns consistent ('I'), and use a modal or past-tense reporting verb to match 'told'. Suggestion: use 'they told me that when I talked to elders, I should be polite and respectful.'

× Being polite and kind to each other is very important because you cannot know if someone's having a bad day or a good day.

✓ Being polite and kind to each other is very important because you cannot know if someone is having a bad day or a good day.

The phrase "someone's having" is ambiguous: it can be a contraction of 'someone is' which is acceptable, but in formal writing it's clearer to use 'someone is'. The main issue flagged is present tense consistency: use 'cannot know' with 'is having' to keep present tense consistent. Suggestion: write 'someone is having' to avoid ambiguity and maintain clear present continuous tense.

× If you be polite all the time, we will defeat all the misunderstandings about each other.

✓ If you are polite all the time, we will avoid misunderstandings between us.

The clause 'If you be polite' uses incorrect modal/verb form in conditional. English requires 'are' (present simple) in a real conditional: 'If you are...'. Also 'defeat all the misunderstandings about each other' is unnatural; 'avoid misunderstandings between us' is clearer. Suggestion: use 'If you are polite all the time, we will avoid misunderstandings between us.'
