Politeness— Part 1 채점 보고서

예시: I learned to be polite mainly from my parents. For example, they showed me how to greet adults and say “please” and “thank you,” and my teachers reinforced this through role-plays at school.

예시: Yes, being polite is very important because it shows respect and helps build strong relationships. For example, in my culture people are especially courteous when meeting someone for the first time, offering formal greetings and using polite titles.

제안: Correct verb forms and make the list clearer using linking words. Begin with a topic sentence naming occasions, then give two specific examples with brief explanations. Keep it concise and natural.

예시: We should be polite in many situations, such as meeting someone for the first time and in public places. For instance, saying “excuse me” on crowded buses or holding the door for someone shows consideration and improves everyone’s day.

예시: As a child, I always said “excuse me” and “please” to adults. For example, when meeting a new neighbor I would greet them politely and offer a handshake or a friendly smile.

× I learned to be polite as a child, mainly from my parents.

✓ I learned to be polite as a child, mainly from my parents.

This sentence is correct in past tense; no change needed. Keep past simple 'learned' to match a completed action in childhood.

× My parents taught me how to behave politely and respectfully as good mind.

✓ My parents taught me how to behave politely and respectfully with good manners.

The phrase 'as good mind' is incorrect English. Use the noun phrase 'good manners' to describe polite behavior and the preposition 'with' to link the behavior and the manner. 'Politely and respectfully' are adverbs correctly modifying 'behave'.

× Teachers also taught us about good manners and sometimes we did role play to practice being polite.

✓ Teachers also taught us about good manners, and sometimes we did role-plays to practice being polite.

Run-on sentence needs a comma before 'and' connecting two independent clauses. 'Role play' as a noun is commonly hyphenated or pluralized as 'role-plays' when plural. This keeps sentence structure clear.

× Of course, being polite is very important because it shows respect to others and help us build good relationships.

✓ Of course, being polite is very important because it shows respect to others and helps us build good relationships.

Subject-verb agreement: 'it' and 'shows' are correct, but the coordinated verb must agree with singular subject 'being polite' so use 'helps' (third-person singular). This is a present tense agreement issue.

× In my culture we always trying to polite especially for someone, especially meeting someone for the first time.

✓ In my culture we are always trying to be polite, especially when meeting someone for the first time.

Missing auxiliary 'are' with continuous form 'trying' is required. 'To be polite' is the correct infinitive after 'trying'. Use 'when meeting' to introduce the time clause. Remove redundant 'especially for someone' and avoid repeating 'especially'.

× We should to be polite when we meet someone for the first time in public places, saying excuse me or holding the door for someone make our day better for everyone.

✓ We should be polite when we meet someone for the first time in public places; saying 'excuse me' or holding the door for someone makes everyone's day better.

Do not use 'to' after 'should'—use the base form 'be'. The gerund phrase 'saying' and 'holding' should be followed by a singular verb 'makes' because the subject is the act (saying or holding) considered as a singular idea improving the day; alternatively use 'help make' for plural. Also add punctuation and quote polite expressions. Use possessive 'everyone's'.

× I always said excuse me please to adults and others.

✓ I always said 'excuse me, please' to adults and others.

Punctuation and word order: include a comma and quotes around the phrase to show it is a set expression. Sentence itself is past tense and acceptable, but punctuation clarifies the spoken phrase.

× Moreover, my parents talked me to polite to greet politely.

✓ Moreover, my parents taught me to be polite and to greet people politely.

'Talked me to' is incorrect; use 'taught me to' for learning. Insert 'be' in 'to be polite' and add 'people' as the object of 'greet' for clarity. Maintain infinitive 'to' after 'taught'.

× So when I meet someone for the first time, I behave politely.

✓ So when I meet someone for the first time, I behave politely.

This sentence is correct: present simple 'meet' and 'behave' are appropriate for habitual actions. No change needed.
