Do you like reading?
Candidato
Yes, I enjoy reading so I try to read at least one book every month. My favorite genres are Korean literature because I can easily relate it to the stories and characters.

Do you prefer to read on paper or on a screen?
Candidato
I prefer reading on a screen. Ebooks are more affordable and portable than paper books also. I can read books with my mobile phone in.
Examinador
When do you need to read carefully, and when not?
Candidato
I tend to read carefully at work. This is because everything can have significant meanings. However, I tend to glance when I scroll through social media since they don't have much useful information.

Do you prefer scanning or detailed reading?
Candidato
I prefer skating. This is because I tend to lose my concentration during detailed reading. I reckon skating is the best way to focus on reading for a long time.

Pontuação: 85.0Sugestão: 문장 구조는 자연스럽고 명확하지만 답변을 더 효과적으로 만들려면 주제문과 세부사항을 더 깔끔하게 구분하세요. 예를 들어 첫 문장에서 직접적으로 질문에 답한 다음, 관련 이유와 구체적 예시(좋아하는 작가나 책 제목)를 연결어(with/for example/because 등)를 사용해 덧붙이면 더 설득력 있습니다. 또한 문장 수를 3~4문장으로 유지하고 중복 표현을 피하세요.
Exemplo: Yes, I do. I try to read at least one book every month because reading helps me relax and learn new perspectives. For example, I often read Korean literature like works by Han Kang, since I can relate to the cultural context and character motivations.
Do you prefer to read on paper or on a screen?
Pontuação: 78.0Sugestão: 핵심 답변은 분명하지만 문장 연결과 어휘 선택에서 개선이 필요합니다. 'also'의 위치를 바꾸고 휴대폰으로 읽는다는 표현을 자연스럽게 다듬으세요. 추가로 간단한 비교(예: 눈의 피로, 편리성)를 덧붙이면 현실감이 높아집니다. 문장은 2~3개로 유지하세요.
Exemplo: I prefer reading on a screen because ebooks are more affordable and convenient. Also, they are portable, so I can easily read on my phone during commutes, though sometimes screens tire my eyes more than paper.
When do you need to read carefully, and when not?
Pontuação: 80.0Sugestão: 좋은 대비를 제시했지만 표현을 더 정확하고 자연스럽게 다듬으세요. 'significant meanings' 대신 'important information' 같은 더 일반적인 표현을 쓰고, 'glance' 사용 시 시제와 문장구조를 정리하세요. 연결어(therefore, whereas 등)를 사용해 논리 흐름을 강화하세요.
Exemplo: I usually read carefully at work because documents often contain important information that affects decisions. In contrast, I just skim social media posts because they rarely contain useful details.
Do you prefer scanning or detailed reading?
Pontuação: 70.0Sugestão: 한 단어 오용(‘skating’→‘skimming/scanning’)이 점수를 낮춥니다. 정확한 어휘를 사용하고 이유를 더 구체적으로 설명하세요(예: 집중 유지 방법, 상황별 선호). 또한 'I reckon'은 좋지만 공식 시험에선 'I find'나 'I prefer'가 더 자연스럽습니다.
Exemplo: I prefer skimming rather than detailed reading because I often lose concentration when I read in depth. For longer reading sessions, skimming helps me keep up the pace and identify the most important points quickly.
× My favorite genres are Korean literature because I can easily relate it to the stories and characters.
✓ My favorite genre is Korean literature because I can easily relate it to the stories and characters.
The student used the plural noun 'genres' but refers to a single item 'Korean literature.' Changing to singular 'genre' matches the rest of the sentence. Also ensure subject and verb agreement: 'My favorite genre is.' Suggestion: decide whether you mean several genres (then list them) or a single genre (use singular).
× Ebooks are more affordable and portable than paper books also.
✓ Ebooks are more affordable and portable than paper books.
The adverb 'also' is redundant and awkward at the end of the sentence. Removing it creates a clear comparison. If you want to add emphasis, place 'also' earlier: 'Ebooks are also more affordable and portable than paper books.'
× I can read books with my mobile phone in.
✓ I can read books on my mobile phone.
The preposition 'in' is incorrect with 'mobile phone.' The correct preposition is 'on' for devices. Also omit 'with' to be more natural: 'on my mobile phone.'
× This is because everything can have significant meanings.
✓ This is because everything can have a significant meaning.
The plural 'meanings' sounds odd here. Use singular 'a significant meaning' or rephrase: 'because everything can be significant.' Suggestion: choose singular abstract noun or change structure to 'be significant.'
× However, I tend to glance when I scroll through social media since they don't have much useful information.
✓ However, I tend to glance when I scroll through social media since it doesn't have much useful information.
The subject 'social media' is treated as a singular collective noun here, so the verb should be 'doesn't.' Alternatively, use 'they' and pluralize to 'platforms' or 'posts.' Suggestion: use consistent singular/plural agreement: 'social media doesn't' or 'social media platforms don't.'
× I prefer skating.
✓ I prefer skimming.
The student likely intended the verb 'skimming' (rapid reading) but wrote 'skating' (an unrelated sport). This is a word choice error. Suggestion: use 'skimming' for reading quickly, or 'scanning' if that was intended.
