Relax— Part 1 채점 보고서

제안: Answer the question directly with a grammatically complete sentence. Use “I have been relaxing at home recently” instead of “I just being in my house.” Also, say “in the living room,” “it is soft and green,” and “it creates a calm atmosphere.” Avoid repeating “house” and use a clear reason to explain why the place helps you relax.

예시: Recently, I have been relaxing at home, especially in the living room. It has comfortable furniture and several green plants, which create a calm atmosphere. I usually sit there and read or watch a film when I need to rest.

제안: Give a direct answer such as “I usually relax with my family,” and then introduce them naturally as “my wife and our four-year-old son.” Correct “They always cheering me up” to “They always cheer me up,” and replace “listen to my voice” with “listen to me talk about my day.” Avoid repeating “family” and connect the details with linking words.

예시: I usually relax with my family—my wife and our four-year-old son. We often go for a walk or have dinner together because they always cheer me up. I can talk to them about my day, which makes me feel happy and relaxed.

제안: State your opinion clearly and use the correct expressions “listen to music,” “before going to bed,” and “it makes me feel relaxed.” Use the present tense because this is a regular habit, and avoid repeating “at the time.” Add a specific explanation of how classical music affects you.

예시: Yes, definitely. I usually listen to classical music before going to bed. The slow melodies help me clear my mind after a busy day, so I feel calmer and fall asleep more easily.

제안: Answer with a specific activity and correct the unclear phrase “learning outside.” If you mean exercising outdoors, say “I enjoy exercising outside.” Use parallel grammar in “it clears my mind and gives me a sense of calm,” and finish the sentence clearly. Add an example, such as walking or jogging, to make the answer more effective.

예시: I usually exercise outdoors to relax. For example, I enjoy going for a walk or jogging in a nearby park. Being outside clears my mind and gives me a sense of calm, especially after a stressful day.

× I just being in my house, uh, specifically at the living room because there is softer and green then it's represents calm atmosphere in my house and I can have a rest and peacefully.

✓ I usually stay at home, specifically in the living room, because it is soft and green, which creates a calm atmosphere, and I can rest peacefully there.

The question asks about a current or recent routine, so use the present simple: stay, not being. After the subject it, use the verb is, not being. The adverb peacefully correctly modifies the verb rest.

× I just being in my house, uh, specifically at the living room because there is softer and green then it's represents calm atmosphere in my house and I can have a rest and peacefully.

✓ I usually stay at home, specifically in the living room, because it is soft and green, which creates a calm atmosphere, and I can rest peacefully there.

Use in with rooms because a person is inside the room: in the living room. Use at home as the fixed expression for being in one's own home.

× I just being in my house, uh, specifically at the living room because there is softer and green then it's represents calm atmosphere in my house and I can have a rest and peacefully.

✓ I usually stay at home, specifically in the living room, because it is soft and green, which creates a calm atmosphere, and I can rest peacefully there.

There is introduces a noun, but softer and green are adjectives describing the living room. Therefore, use the subject it with the linking verb is: it is soft and green.

× I just being in my house, uh, specifically at the living room because there is softer and green then it's represents calm atmosphere in my house and I can have a rest and peacefully.

✓ I usually stay at home, specifically in the living room, because it is soft and green, which creates a calm atmosphere, and I can rest peacefully there.

Use the definite article the before living room when referring to a specific room in the speaker's house. Also, atmosphere is a singular countable noun here, so it needs the article a: a calm atmosphere.

× Definitely my family. I always go out with my family. It's a wife and four year old boy.

✓ Definitely my family. I usually relax with my wife and my four-year-old son.

It's means it is, so it cannot introduce family members in this sentence. Use the possessive pronouns my wife and my son. Son is more precise than boy when referring to one's child.

× They always cheering me up and listen to my voice and what happened in daily life.

✓ They always cheer me up and listen to me talk about what happens in my daily life.

After the adverb always, use the present simple for a regular habit: cheer, not cheering. The two coordinated verbs should have the same form: cheer and listen.

× They always cheering me up and listen to my voice and what happened in daily life.

✓ They always cheer me up and listen to me talk about what happens in my daily life.

Because the sentence describes a regular present situation, use happens rather than happened. The present simple is appropriate for repeated or usual events.

× Yes, definitely. Umm, I always listen the music at the before go to bed at the time I listen uh, classical music and it made me uh, satisfied and relaxed.

✓ Yes, definitely. I always listen to music before going to bed. At that time, I listen to classical music, and it makes me feel satisfied and relaxed.

The verb listen requires the preposition to: listen to music. Use before going to bed, not at the before go to bed. The expression listen to music does not normally need the article the when speaking generally.

× Yes, definitely. Umm, I always listen the music at the before go to bed at the time I listen uh, classical music and it made me uh, satisfied and relaxed.

✓ Yes, definitely. I always listen to music before going to bed. At that time, I listen to classical music, and it makes me feel satisfied and relaxed.

After the preposition before, use the -ing form going: before going to bed. The phrase before go to bed is grammatically incomplete.

× Yes, definitely. Umm, I always listen the music at the before go to bed at the time I listen uh, classical music and it made me uh, satisfied and relaxed.

✓ Yes, definitely. I always listen to music before going to bed. At that time, I listen to classical music, and it makes me feel satisfied and relaxed.

The answer describes a regular habit, so use the present simple makes rather than the past-tense form made. Also, use makes me feel satisfied and relaxed because feel follows the causative structure make + object + base verb.

× Actually some exercise makes me more relaxed. For example, I love learning outside because it makes my head clear and have calm feeling when I'm.

✓ Actually, exercise makes me feel more relaxed. For example, I love exercising outdoors because it clears my head and gives me a calm feeling.

The original sentence ends with the incomplete clause when I'm and combines several ideas without a complete grammatical structure. The correction uses complete clauses and parallel verbs: clears and gives.

× Actually some exercise makes me more relaxed. For example, I love learning outside because it makes my head clear and have calm feeling when I'm.

✓ Actually, exercise makes me feel more relaxed. For example, I love exercising outdoors because it clears my head and gives me a calm feeling.

Calm feeling is a singular countable noun phrase, so it needs the article a: a calm feeling. In this context, exercise is used as an uncountable general activity and does not need some.
