How do you improve your typing?
考生
Usually I improve my typing by writing essays daily on daily basis and practice. By practice I improved a lot.
Do you prefer typing or handwriting?
分数: 78.0建议: Your answer is clear and relevant, but it could be more natural and concise. Begin with a direct topic sentence, avoid repetition (e.g., 'usually' and 'often' together), and use a linking phrase to add one specific supporting detail or example. Also correct minor grammar issues ("typed text" or "typed words" instead of "type text").
示例: I prefer typing because it’s faster and makes editing easy. Moreover, typed text is more legible than poor handwriting, so classmates can read my notes without difficulty. For example, when I type lecture notes I can organize and search them later, which saves time.
Do you type on a desktop or laptop keyboard every day?
分数: 72.0建议: Good idea but the answer mixes tense and is slightly vague. Start with a direct sentence stating which you use daily, use correct tense, and give one specific reason or example. Avoid saying 'used' when you mean 'use' and be more precise (e.g., 'preparing for iOS exams' or 'studying iOS development').
示例: I use a laptop keyboard every day for most of my tasks. For example, I practice iOS development and write code and notes on my laptop, so typing daily helps me improve my speed and accuracy.
When did you learn how to type on a keyboard?
分数: 66.0建议: Your answer answers the question but has tense inconsistency and some redundancy. Give a direct response with correct past tense, then add one concise supporting detail about what you practiced. Keep it within 3–4 sentences and use linking words like 'then' or 'after that'.
示例: I learned to type when I was in grade eight. My computer teacher took us to the lab, and we practiced touch-typing exercises on the keyboards. After a few weeks of lessons and practice, I became much more confident typing.
How do you improve your typing?
分数: 68.0建议: The content is relevant but repetitive and has grammatical errors. Start with a clear topic sentence in present simple, avoid repeating phrases ('daily' twice), and give one or two specific methods or measurable outcomes (e.g., speed in WPM or fewer mistakes). Use linking words like 'for example' or 'also'.
示例: I improve my typing by practicing every day, mostly by writing essays and doing timed typing exercises. For example, I spend 30 minutes each morning on online typing tests, which has increased my speed and reduced my errors significantly.
× Also type text is more legible than poor handwriting, so other people can easily read my notes or messages without facing any difficulty.
✓ Also typed text is more legible than poor handwriting, so other people can easily read my notes or messages without any difficulty.
The phrase 'type text' is incorrect; 'typed text' uses the past participle as an adjective to describe text that has been typed. 'Facing any difficulty' is wordy and awkward; 'without any difficulty' is the natural adverbial phrase. Use past participle adjective forms and simpler adverbial phrases to improve clarity. Suggested improvement: use 'typed text' or 'typed notes' and avoid redundant expressions such as 'facing any difficulty'.
× Well, I used laptop for my daily tasks, especially for my iOS preparation.
✓ Well, I use a laptop for my daily tasks, especially for my iOS preparation.
Two issues: article and tense. The noun 'laptop' needs an article ('a laptop'). Also the context is habitual, so present tense 'use' is correct rather than past 'used'. The instruction 2 allows only types listed; here primary error is article (ID 22). Suggestion: include appropriate articles and match tense to context.
× So I use the laptop keyboard every day to improve my writing.
✓ So I use the laptop keyboard every day to improve my writing.
This sentence is grammatically correct and requires no change. It matches first person subject with correct verb form. No correction made.
× Well when I was in grade 8, my computer teacher taught me about the computer and keyboards.
✓ Well, when I was in grade 8, my computer teacher taught me about computers and keyboards.
The main problem is incorrect article and noun number: 'the computer' implies a specific computer; general instruction uses plural 'computers'. This falls under past tense context but the listed error types include article errors (22) and singular/plural (1). I corrected to plural 'computers' to match general instruction context. Also added a comma after 'Well' for clarity.
× So they took us into the computer lab and we will practice on keyboard and use the computer by using keyboard as well.
✓ So they took us into the computer lab and we practiced on the keyboard and used computers as well.
Tense inconsistency and pronoun/phrase awkwardness: 'we will practice' is future but the action is in the past context ('taught me' earlier), so it should be past 'we practiced'. Also 'on keyboard' needs an article 'the keyboard'; 'use the computer by using keyboard' is repetitive and awkward. I changed to 'used computers' for natural phrasing. The primary correction aligns with pronoun/reference and tense consistency (pronoun use and verb forms). Suggestion: keep tense consistent within a past narrative and use articles with countable nouns.
× Usually I improve my typing by writing essays daily on daily basis and practice.
✓ Usually I improve my typing by writing essays every day and practicing.
Redundancy and incorrect phrase 'on daily basis' should be 'on a daily basis' but better 'every day'. Also 'practice' should be the gerund 'practicing' to match 'by writing' structure. This is primarily an adverb/adverbial phrase error and verb form parallelism. Suggestion: use 'every day' or 'on a daily basis' and keep parallel gerund forms after 'by'.
× By practice I improved a lot.
✓ With practice I improved a lot.
The phrase 'By practice' is unnatural; 'With practice' is the idiomatic prepositional phrase. The tense 'improved' is fine (past) if referring to past improvement; if you mean general improvement over time, present perfect 'I have improved a lot' could be used. The primary issue addressed is prepositional choice and idiomatic usage (past tense retained). Suggestion: use 'with practice' or 'through practice', and choose tense to match intended meaning.
