打字— Part 1 评分报告

建议: Be more concise and organized: state your preference clearly, give one specific reason and one brief example, avoid filler sounds and repetition. Use linking words (however, although, for example) to make the response coherent.

示例: I prefer typing because it’s faster and more convenient for me. However, I once read research suggesting that handwriting, especially for journaling, can reduce stress, so I sometimes handwrite journal entries for that benefit.

建议: Answer directly and succinctly: start with a clear topic sentence (Yes/No + reason), then add one specific supporting detail. Remove hesitation and finish sentences fully.

示例: Not every day. I mainly use a touchscreen laptop now, so I don’t use a physical keyboard often. Before this, I used a traditional laptop regularly, which helped me develop good typing speed and accuracy.

建议: Structure your answer chronologically and avoid repetition: give a clear timeline (when you started), mention how your method changed, and provide a brief outcome. Eliminate fillers and complete sentences.

示例: I first learned basic typing in my ICT class at primary school, where I used a one-finger method. About ten years ago my dad bought me a laptop, and I watched videos to learn touch typing. Although I didn’t practice intensively, over time my typing improved.

建议: Be specific about actions and results: state the methods you used to improve, mention frequency or duration if possible, and clearly describe the outcome. Use linking words (first, then, finally) for flow and avoid hesitation.

示例: I improved my typing by first watching touch-typing tutorials to learn correct hand placement. Then I practised regularly by chatting with friends and typing school homework, and over several months my speed and accuracy gradually improved.

× I honestly prefer typing because I think it's convenient.

✓ I honestly prefer typing because I think it's more convenient.

The original sentence uses 'convenient' but is comparing typing to handwriting, so the comparative form 'more convenient' is required to show comparison.

× Uh, but, but, uh, and one time I heard this research that type, uh, handwriting, especially when, uh, writing a journal is, uh, more important, is more important than typing because it makes us, it kind of makes us really this stress hormones.

✓ One time I heard research that handwriting, especially when writing a journal, is more important than typing because it reduces stress hormones.

The original sentence has disfluencies and incorrect phrasing ('this research that type, uh, handwriting', 'makes us really this stress hormones'). Correct structure requires 'research that' + clause and proper verb 'reduces' to indicate decrease of stress hormones. Remove filler words and redundant repetition for clarity.

× And after hearing that, I try to journal.

✓ After hearing that, I tried journaling.

The action happened after hearing something in the past, so the past tense 'tried' should be used rather than present 'try'. Also use 'journaling' (gerund) for the activity.

× Called by handwriting, but still, I think I prefer typing because yeah, that's easier for me.

✓ I tried writing by hand, but still I think I prefer typing because it's easier for me.

'Called by handwriting' is incorrect. Use 'writing by hand' or 'writing in handwriting'. Also replace 'yeah, that's' with 'it's' and remove unnecessary comma. Ensure consistent subject and verb.

× No, I don't type on a physical uh keyword uh, often right now because I have a a touch screen laptop, But before I bought this uh, I, I, I used to have a traditional laptop, so I have to use the keyboard and I was regularly exercising typing, so my uh typing is still quite good.

✓ No, I don't type on a physical keyboard often right now because I have a touchscreen laptop. Before I bought this, I used to have a traditional laptop, so I had to use the keyboard and I regularly practiced typing, so my typing is still quite good.

Fix 'keyword' to 'keyboard', remove filler words and duplicate articles, correct capitalisation after comma, use past tense 'had to' and 'practiced' for past habits, and replace 'exercising typing' with 'practiced typing'.

× I. My typing speed and accuracy are still quite.

✓ My typing speed and accuracy are still quite good.

The fragment 'I.' is extraneous. 'Quite' needs a qualifier like 'good' to complete the adjective phrase.

× I first uh, learned to type uh, in my ICT class when I was in grade school, but I didn't used to own a laptop before that, but I at that time I was, uh, typing using one finger.

✓ I first learned to type in my ICT class when I was in grade school, but I didn't own a laptop then, so at that time I typed using one finger.

Remove fillers and correct 'didn't used to own' to 'didn't own' (negative past simple). Use 'then' for time reference and simplify 'typing using one finger' to 'typed using one finger'.

× But then my dad bought me a laptop, uh, almost like 10 years ago.

✓ Then my dad bought me a laptop almost ten years ago.

Remove filler 'uh' and 'almost like'; write numbers as words in normal text. Sentence is past event, so past tense 'bought' is correct.

× And then I watched some video on, on touch typing, so.

✓ Then I watched some videos on touch typing.

Use plural 'videos' or 'a video'. 'Some video' is ungrammatical. Remove filler and trailing 'so'.

× I start doing that, I start touch typing, but honestly, I didn't, uh, deliberately practice because I have, I have to type.

✓ I started doing that; I started touch typing, but honestly I didn't deliberately practice because I had to type.

Use past tense 'started' for past events. 'Didn't deliberately practice' is correct but requires past reference 'had to type' (past tense) to match the time frame.

× So I just used, uh, that finger like method like I knew where to put my finger in the.

✓ So I just used that one-finger method; I knew where to place my fingers on the keyboard.

Clarify 'that finger like method' to 'one-finger method'. Replace 'put my finger in the' with 'place my fingers on the keyboard' for correct preposition and complete object.

× After my dad bought me a laptop, I watched some touch typing videos, but I didn't set, set aside time to practice.

✓ After my dad bought me a laptop, I watched some touch typing videos, but I didn't set aside time to practice.

Remove repeated 'set' and filler words. Sentence structure is fine after that.

× But what I did was I learned, uh, I practiced the proper, uh, proper hand placement on the keys.

✓ What I did was practice the proper hand placement on the keys.

Avoid redundancy: 'I learned, I practiced' can be simplified. 'Practice the proper hand placement' is concise. Remove duplicate 'proper'.

× Uh, then I used the placement slowly to chat with my friends and to do, uh, school. Homeworks.

✓ Then I used that hand placement while chatting with my friends and doing school homework.

Use 'while' for simultaneous action. 'School homeworks' is incorrect: use 'school homework' or 'homework' (uncountable). Remove fillers and fix sentence flow.

× Then gradually it became natural and I and my speed also improved.

✓ Then gradually it became natural and my speed also improved.

Remove duplicated 'and I'. Use past tense 'became' and 'improved' consistently for past events.
