Friends— Part 1 채점 보고서

제안: Answer the question by comparing meeting places, rather than your friends’ characters. Avoid repeated words and use a clear contrast, such as “I used to…, whereas now…”. Add one specific example of a place you meet.

예시: Yes, there is. I used to meet my friends at school or at each other’s homes, but now we usually meet at cafés. We’re all busier, so a café is convenient and gives us time to catch up.

제안: Your example clearly shows that people have different preferences. Use “each person” and “preferences” instead of “each people” and “specifications,” and explain briefly why a quiet or noisy place suits someone.

예시: It depends on people’s preferences. Some people prefer quiet places, like cafés, because they can talk easily. Others enjoy lively places, such as restaurants with music, because they find them more exciting.

제안: State your preference directly and explain that one-to-one conversations allow you to talk more openly. Use “prefer spending time” and “a group of friends”; avoid unclear phrases such as “dream with together.”

예시: Honestly, I prefer spending time with one friend. It’s easier to have a meaningful conversation and talk openly about personal things. In a group, the conversation can be fun, but I sometimes find it harder to connect deeply with everyone.

제안: Your answer gives relevant reasons, but make the time contrast and grammar clearer. Say “I used to invite…” and “I can’t invite them at the moment.” Explain that you have recently moved and are still settling in.

예시: I used to invite my friends over quite often, but I don’t do that much at the moment. I have a young child, and I’ve recently moved to a new city, so I’m still getting settled and haven’t made many friends nearby yet.

제안: Directly say how important your friends are, then connect your values to the friendships you have. Avoid repeating “important” and “friendship”; use natural phrases such as “honesty and sincerity” and give a brief example of what you value doing together.

예시: Friends are very important to me because they offer support and companionship. I value honesty and sincerity, as I want to feel comfortable being myself around them. I also enjoy spending quality time together, even if we’re just talking.

제안: Give a clear frequency and distinguish going out from keeping in touch online. Use “I’m an introvert,” “talk on the phone,” and “about once a month.” Avoid repeating that you are social.

예시: Not very often. I’m quite introverted, so I usually keep in touch with my friends by text or phone. We might go out for a meal or coffee about once a month.

제안: Your answer names possible locations, but it contradicts itself by saying you dislike concerts and then mentioning concert venues. Choose places you actually visit and explain what makes one convenient or enjoyable. Use “preferences” instead of “requests.”

예시: We usually meet at cafés or shopping centres. They’re easy to get to, and we can talk while we have a drink or look around the shops. Sometimes we also visit an exhibition if we’re both interested in it.

제안: Explain the activities more naturally: you talk about their hobbies and problems, listen to them, and share what is happening in your life. Use “I’m interested in” and “get to know them better” rather than “be deeper with them.”

예시: We usually talk about our hobbies and what’s happening in our lives. I like listening when they have a problem, and I share my own experiences too. It helps us understand each other better.

제안: You identify the friend and explain how long you have known him, but the response stops before completing the final idea. Finish with a specific memory or explain what you shared. Use “we have the same name” and “when we were at university.”

예시: Yes, I have a close friend called Ilhan, and we’ve known each other since high school. We also went to university together, so we spent a lot of time with each other. We shared classes and supported each other during exams, which made our friendship stronger.

× There are many differences between I I meet friends now and I used to meet them in the past.

✓ There are many differences between where I meet friends now and where I used to meet them in the past.

The phrase after between should use parallel structures. Use where I meet and where I used to meet to compare the two places.

× There are too many too main differences.

✓ There are two main differences.

Too many means an excessive number, while two gives the specific number intended here. Use two main differences.

× Firstly, their characters uh, was changed in time and now in different countries.

✓ Firstly, their characters changed over time, and now they live in different countries.

Characters is plural, so it cannot be paired with was. Also, the sentence needs a subject and verb for the second idea: they live in different countries.

× For each people, for each person there are lots of comfortable and specifications.

✓ For each person, there are many things they find comfortable and many specific preferences.

Each is followed by a singular noun, so use each person rather than each people. Comfortable is an adjective and cannot function as a plural noun in this sentence; use a noun phrase such as things they find comfortable.

× For instance, some people like umm the peaceful areas, but the other ones can like umm noisy areas.

✓ For instance, some people like peaceful areas, but others may prefer noisy areas.

When speaking about areas in general, do not use the before peaceful areas. Others is a concise way to refer to different people. May prefer is also a natural way to express a possible preference.

× Honestly, I prefer spend time with one friend 'cause you can share, uh, much more detailed information.

✓ Honestly, I prefer spending time with one friend because you can share much more detailed information.

Prefer can be followed by a gerund. Use spending, or use the infinitive form to spend.

× And, uh, if you can prefer, umm, just one, you will be much more deeper than the, uh, group friends.

✓ And if you prefer just one friend, your conversations can be much deeper than conversations in a group of friends.

The original clause is incomplete because prefer needs an object. The comparison also needs to compare equivalent things, such as conversations with conversations.

× You will be much more deeper than the, uh, group friends.

✓ Your conversations can be much deeper than conversations in a group of friends.

Deeper is already a comparative form, so do not add more before it. Use much deeper.

× You can imagine, you can dream, uh, with together.

✓ You can imagine and dream together.

Together does not take the preposition with in this construction. Say dream together.

× In the past years I, I could prefer, I could invite my friends to my home.

✓ In past years, I preferred inviting my friends to my home.

The sentence describes a past preference, so use the simple past preferred. Could prefer does not express this meaning naturally.

× I do not, I, I can't invite friends to my home 'cause I have a kid and I move.

✓ I cannot invite friends to my home because I have a child and I moved.

The move happened in the past, so use moved rather than move. The present tense have is appropriate because the student still has a child.

× I just moved to different city.

✓ I just moved to a different city.

Different is a singular countable noun phrase modifier here, so it needs the indefinite article a.

× I have, I haven't, uh, not so many friends yet.

✓ I do not have many friends yet.

The original contains a false start and an incomplete negative construction. Use do not have many friends to form a clear negative sentence.

× All of them import are important for me.

✓ All of them are important to me.

The plural subject all of them takes are. Remove import, which does not form a grammatical part of the sentence.

× Umm, so quality time I prefer.

✓ So, I prefer quality time.

In a standard statement, place the subject before the verb and the object after it: I prefer quality time.

× So I'm introvert and generally I'm texting or I'm calling to them.

✓ So, I am an introvert, and I generally text or call them.

Introvert is a singular countable noun and needs the article an. The simple present is appropriate for habitual actions.

× Generally I'm texting or I'm calling to them.

✓ I generally text or call them.

Call is not followed by to when its object is a person. Say call them, not call to them.

× We are talking online or with phone.

✓ We talk online or on the phone.

The usual expression is on the phone, not with phone. The simple present also suits the habitual meaning of the answer.

× I don't like the concerts or some events.

✓ I don't like concerts or some events.

The speaker is referring to concerts generally, not to specific concerts already known to the listener, so omit the.

× It can it, it depends on their and my special, umm, requests.

✓ It depends on their preferences and mine.

Their and my is awkward in this construction. Use their preferences and mine, where mine correctly replaces my preferences.

× I can interest with their hobbies, their problems with, uh, the other ones.

✓ I can take an interest in their hobbies and listen to their problems with other people.

The expression is take an interest in, not interest with. The preposition to is also required after listen.

× The main reasons is that I really like to be deeper with to them.

✓ The main reason is that I really like to become closer to them.

The verb is singular, so its subject should also be singular: the main reason. The original also uses an incorrect phrase before them; closer to them is a grammatical way to express the idea.

× I really like to be deeper with to them.

✓ I really like to become closer to them.

The sequence with to is not grammatical here. Use closer to them to express becoming more familiar or emotionally close.

× For instance, my friend Ilhan umm also we have same names.

✓ For instance, my friend Ilhan and I have the same name.

The subject should be my friend Ilhan and I. The expression the same name requires the definite article the.

× We met in high school years, then also in university times.

✓ We met in high school and then again at university.

The standard expressions are in high school and at university. The extra nouns years and times are not needed in these expressions.

× We spent lots of time and we shared lots of.

✓ We spent a lot of time together and shared a lot of experiences.

A lot of needs a noun after it. The original ends with of and does not complete the phrase, so add a suitable noun to make the sentence complete.
