Friends— Part 1 채점 보고서

제안: Answer the comparison directly and use accurate grammar. The phrases “meet friends with a hawk” and “shake hands with them” do not describe meeting places, and “now I used to” is incorrect. Clearly compare a past place with a current place, and add a reason or example.

예시: Yes, there is a difference. I used to meet my friends at school, but nowadays we usually meet at cafés or restaurants. It is more convenient because we can relax and chat there.

제안: Give a complete sentence with a clear topic sentence, and correct the articles and subject-verb agreement: “cafés are quiet” and “restaurants are noisy.” Also, restaurants are not always noisy, so explain that suitability depends on the atmosphere and noise level.

예시: Some places are suitable because they are quiet and comfortable. For example, cafés often provide a relaxed atmosphere where people can talk easily. In contrast, very noisy restaurants may make conversation difficult.

제안: Your answer is direct and includes a reason, but “different interesting things” is unnatural and repetitive. Use more precise vocabulary, such as “a variety of ideas and experiences,” and add a specific example to develop the answer.

예시: I prefer spending time with a group of friends because I can hear a variety of opinions and experiences. For example, when we discuss travel plans, everyone contributes different ideas, which makes the conversation more interesting.

제안: Although the answer is grammatically acceptable, it is too short for a strong Part 1 response. Answer directly and add a reason, plus an example of what you would do together at home.

예시: Yes, I would. I enjoy inviting my friends over because we can relax in a familiar environment. We might cook dinner together, watch a film, or play board games.

제안: Avoid beginning with “Yes” because the question asks “how important,” not a yes/no question. State the level of importance directly, use punctuation or linking words, and support your opinion with a specific reason.

예시: Friends are extremely important to me because they provide emotional support and make my life more enjoyable. I can talk to them when I have a problem, and we also share many memorable experiences.

제안: The answer is clear and relevant, but use the article “the” before “cinema” and add a little detail about frequency or a typical activity. Linking the two activities more naturally would also improve fluency.

예시: Yes, I do. I usually go to the cinema or play basketball with my friends once or twice a week. We often grab something to eat afterward and catch up on our news.

제안: Use the correct prepositions and plural forms: “at cafés and restaurants.” “Cinnamon” is not a place, so replace it with the intended location, such as “the cinema.” Avoid listing places without explaining which one you prefer or why.

예시: We usually meet at cafés, restaurants, or the cinema. We tend to choose cafés because they are convenient and quiet enough for us to have a good conversation.

제안: The answer is unclear and does not form a grammatical sentence. Use a clear subject and verb, such as “We usually…” Then list two or three understandable activities and connect them with “and” or “such as.”

예시: We usually play basketball, watch films, and have drinks together. At weekends, we sometimes meet at a sports centre and then go to a café afterward.

제안: The main idea is clear, but connect the clauses correctly and avoid repeating “have.” You could say “I have a friend whom I have known for ten years” or, more naturally, “I have a friend I’ve known for ten years.” Add the friend’s identity or a shared activity for development.

예시: Yes, I do. I have a close friend I’ve known for ten years since we were at school together. We still keep in touch regularly and often play basketball at the weekend.

× Yes, there is difference and I used to meet friends with a hawk and now I used to shake hands with them.

✓ Yes, there is a difference, and I used to meet friends with a hawk, but now I shake hands with them.

The singular countable noun difference requires the indefinite article a. Use a before a singular noun when mentioning one non-specific example.

× Yes, there is difference and I used to meet friends with a hawk and now I used to shake hands with them.

✓ Yes, there is a difference, and I used to meet friends with a hawk, but now I shake hands with them.

Used to describes a past habit, so it is not appropriate for a current action. Because now refers to the present, use the present simple: I shake hands.

× Because some places like cafe it's quiet and some places like restaurants is noisy.

✓ Because some places, like cafes, are quiet, while other places, like restaurants, are noisy.

The plural subject places requires the plural verb are, not is. Also, restaurants is plural, so it must be followed by are.

× Because some places like cafe it's quiet and some places like restaurants is noisy.

✓ Because some places, like cafes, are quiet, while other places, like restaurants, are noisy.

Cafe is a countable noun. When it is singular, it needs an article, as in a cafe. In this correction, the plural form cafes is used, so no article is needed.

× Yes they are important they are as important as my family members

✓ Yes, they are important. They are as important as my family members.

The original answer joins two complete sentences without appropriate punctuation. Separate them with a full stop, or join them with a suitable conjunction.

× Yes, I do. I often go to cinema and play basketball with them.

✓ Yes, I do. I often go to the cinema and play basketball with them.

Cinema refers to a specific type of public place in this expression, so it normally takes the definite article the: go to the cinema.

× We usually meet each other at a cafe and restaurants or cinnamon.

✓ We usually meet at a cafe, a restaurant, or the cinema.

Singular countable nouns such as cafe and restaurant require an article. Use a before each non-specific singular place. The natural expression is the cinema; cinnamon appears to be a transcription error for cinema.

× Welyssium Wind and a basketball and drinks and beers.

✓ We listen to music, play basketball, and drink beer.

The original answer does not form a clear grammatical sentence because the first expression is not a recognizable subject-and-verb structure. Use a subject followed by coordinated verbs: We listen, play, and drink.

× Welyssium Wind and a basketball and drinks and beers.

✓ We listen to music, play basketball, and drink beer.

Basketball, when referring to the sport, is usually used without the article a. Beer is generally uncountable when referring to the drink in general, so drink beer is more natural than drink beers.

× Welyssium Wind and a basketball and drinks and beers.

✓ We listen to music, play basketball, and drink beer.

The subject we takes the base form of the verb, not the third-person singular form drinks. Therefore, use drink: we drink beer.

× Yes, I have a friend we have known each other for ten years.

✓ Yes, I have a friend whom I have known for ten years.

The original sentence uses we have known each other after friend without a grammatical link. Whom correctly introduces the person who is the object of known. A simpler alternative is: Yes, I have a friend, and we have known each other for ten years.

× Yes, I have a friend we have known each other for ten years.

✓ Yes, I have a friend whom I have known for ten years.

Two clauses are placed together without a conjunction or relative pronoun. Use whom to connect the clause to friend, or use and to join two independent clauses.
