Typing— Part 1 Báo cáo

Gợi ý: Make the response more concise and natural: begin with a clear topic sentence, avoid repetition, and add a brief specific example to support your reason. Use linking words (for example, because, so) and limit to 3–4 sentences.

Ví dụ: I prefer typing to handwriting because I can think and type much faster. For example, when I record doctors' orders at work, typing lets me capture details quickly and accurately, so there are fewer mistakes.

Gợi ý: Start with a direct topic sentence, then give one specific supporting detail. Reduce redundant phrases and use a linking word to connect your job context with the reason.

Ví dụ: I usually type on a desktop at work because that's what the hospital provides. As a nurse at the Philippine Heart Center, I use electronic records daily, which makes desktop computers essential and convenient for accurate documentation.

Gợi ý: Be more confident and precise in your answer. Replace hedging words like 'I think' with a clear statement, combine related ideas, and add a brief linking phrase to show cause and effect.

Ví dụ: I learned to type at about six or seven years old after my parents bought me a laptop. Because I practiced on that laptop regularly, my speed and accuracy improved quickly.

Gợi ý: Provide a concise, structured answer: state the main method, then give one or two concrete examples of how you practice and the result. Use linking words (for example, because/so) and avoid repetitive phrasing.

Ví dụ: I improve my typing by practicing daily, mainly through my job tasks. For example, entering electronic records and communicating with colleagues online gives me constant practice, which has steadily increased my speed and accuracy.

× I prefer typing instead of handwriting because I think faster when I type.

✓ I prefer typing instead of handwriting because I think more quickly when I type.

The phrase 'think faster' uses 'faster' as an adverb; while 'faster' can work informally, 'think more quickly' is clearer and more grammatically precise. Use an adverb to modify the verb 'think'. Suggestion: use 'more quickly' or 'faster' consistently as an adverb after the verb.

× It is also very convenient for me because I type really fast.

✓ It is also very convenient for me because I type very quickly.

'Really' modifies an adjective or adverb informally; 'fast' as an adverb is acceptable but 'very quickly' is more formal and consistent with standard adverb use. Use 'quickly' to clearly modify the verb 'type'.

× It also is very useful in my line of work, especially when I'm taking orders from doctors.

✓ It is also very useful in my line of work, especially when I take orders from doctors.

The progressive 'I'm taking' suggests an action in progress; for habitual actions like taking orders as part of work, the simple present 'I take' is more appropriate. Also adjust word order to 'It is' for natural phrasing.

× I usually type on a desktop because it's what's available in my line of work.

✓ I usually type on a desktop because that's what is available in my line of work.

The contraction 'it's what's' is informal and slightly awkward. Expanding to 'that's what is' improves clarity. No major grammar error but clarity and formality improved.

× I am a nurse at the Philippine Heart Center and we usually use computers as electronic records, especially when taking orders.

✓ I am a nurse at the Philippine Heart Center, and we usually use computers for electronic records, especially when taking orders.

Use 'for' rather than 'as' to indicate purpose: computers are used for electronic records. Also add a comma before 'and' for clarity. The change fixes preposition misuse (ID 11) and article/structure clarity.

× This is very useful because it is easy to use.

✓ This is very useful because they are easy to use.

The sentence refers to 'computers' (plural) mentioned in the previous sentence. Pronoun 'it' is singular and mismatches; use 'they' to agree with the plural antecedent. Also keep present simple for general statements.

× I think I learned how to type on a keyboard maybe around six or seven years old.

✓ I think I learned how to type on a keyboard when I was maybe six or seven years old.

The original omits the necessary verb 'was' for age. Use 'when I was six or seven years old' to indicate age at the time. Keep 'learned' (past tense) as learning occurred in the past.

× My parents bought me a laptop.

✓ My parents bought me a laptop.

Sentence is correct; no grammatical change needed. Included for completeness.

× That's why I get to learn and practice my skills.

✓ That's why I got to learn and practice my skills.

The context refers to a past event (parents bought a laptop), so 'get' should be in past tense 'got' to match the time frame. Use past tense for sequence of events.

× That way I was able to type faster.

✓ That way I was able to type faster.

This sentence is correctly in past tense and matches the previous events; no change needed.

× I can say that I can improve my typing by practicing it every day.

✓ I can say that I improved my typing by practicing every day.

The speaker likely intends to describe how they improved in the past by practicing; if speaking about current ability to improve, better: 'I can say that I can improve my typing by practicing every day.' Decide context: chosen correction assumes past improvement; if meaning ongoing habit, keep 'can improve' but remove redundant 'it' -> 'practicing every day.' Avoid double 'can'.

× I usually do a lot of typing in my everyday line of work because of the use of electronic records.

✓ I usually do a lot of typing in my everyday line of work because we use electronic records.

The phrase 'because of the use of' is wordy and awkward. Replace with 'because we use' for clarity and naturalness. This fixes preposition/phrase choice and improves concision.

× It is in that way that we communicate to our colleagues.

✓ That is how we communicate with our colleagues.

'Communicate to our colleagues' is less natural than 'communicate with our colleagues.' Also 'It is in that way that...' is wordy; 'That is how...' is more natural. This corrects preposition misuse and improves sentence structure.
