打字— Part 1 評分報告

建議: Be more concise and complete your sentences. Start with a clear topic sentence, then give 1–2 specific reasons using linking words. Avoid trailing off and unnecessary words. Also vary vocabulary (e.g., “express myself” instead of “self-expression” twice).

範例: I prefer handwriting rather than typing because it helps me express my personality through my writing. For example, when I write notes or letters by hand I remember ideas better and feel more creative, so I often choose handwriting for personal tasks.

建議: Give a complete, structured answer: state which device you use, then give 1–2 specific reasons with linking words. Remove fillers (uh, um) and avoid unfinished clauses. Use precise vocabulary (desktop vs laptop, professional tasks).

範例: Yes, I type on a laptop every day because it is portable and convenient for my job. For instance, I can work from home or cafés, and modern laptops have the software I need to prepare reports quickly.

建議: Use correct verb tenses and complete your statements. Start with a clear time reference (e.g., “when I was at secondary school”), then give a specific detail about how you learned and what helped you improve. Reduce hesitations and filler words.

範例: I learned to type when I was at secondary school, after the first computers were introduced there. At that time, my teacher gave us exercises and I practised daily, which helped me build speed and confidence.

建議: Answer directly and clearly: explain one or two techniques you used or still use, and provide specific examples or results. Avoid unfinished sentences and fillers. Use linking words (first, then, finally) to show sequence.

範例: To improve my typing, I practised regularly by copying texts from books and timing myself to increase speed. Later, I learned the layouts for both French and English keyboards, which reduced my errors and helped me type more accurately.

× I definitely prefer handwriting instead of using a computer or a machine to write.

✓ I definitely prefer handwriting to using a computer or a machine to write.

Use 'prefer A to B' not 'prefer A instead of B' when comparing preferences. Replace 'instead of' with 'to' for correct preposition usage.

× I think that handwriting is a great self-expression.

✓ I think that handwriting is a great form of self-expression.

The phrase 'self-expression' needs a modifier; use 'form of self-expression' to form a correct noun phrase and improve clarity.

× It's a great way to.

✓ It's a great way to express myself.

The sentence is incomplete and lacks an object or verb phrase. Add 'express myself' to complete the thought and match context.

× Yes, I use a keyboard every day.

✓ Yes, I use a keyboard every day.

This sentence is correct in present simple for a habitual action; no change needed.

× It's faster and as nowadays, uh, computers and technology, uh, provide us with different type of resources, I prefer for my professional uh, job to use a.

✓ It's faster, and nowadays computers and technology provide us with different types of resources, so I prefer to use a keyboard for my professional job.

Problems: misplaced 'as' and filler words disrupt sentence flow; 'type' should be plural 'types'; 'prefer for my professional job to use a' is incorrect order — use 'prefer to use a keyboard for my professional job.' Reorder and remove extraneous words for correct grammar and clarity.

× Actually, I learn, uh, to use a keyboard very early on.

✓ Actually, I learned to use a keyboard very early on.

The action occurred in the past, so use past tense 'learned' instead of present 'learn.' Adjust tense to match context.

× I think it was, uh, during my secondary years, uh, when the first computer has been introduced to me, umm, to learn how to practice and to type in a very, uh, fast way.

✓ I think it was during my secondary years when the first computer was introduced to me to learn how to practice and how to type quickly.

Use past simple 'was introduced' not present perfect 'has been introduced' because a specific past time is implied. Use 'how to type quickly' instead of 'in a very fast way' for natural phrasing.

× I copy of.

✓ I copied practice exercises.

Original fragment 'I copy of.' is incomplete and unclear. Provide a complete idea that matches context: past habit of copying exercises, using past tense 'copied'.

× To improve my speed and accuracy, uh, when I was younger, I used to copy off books, uh, or anything that I could find around the house.

✓ To improve my speed and accuracy when I was younger, I used to copy from books or anything I could find around the house.

Use 'copy from' rather than 'copy off' in standard English; remove extra commas and fillers for fluency. The rest is correct tense-wise.

× Then I started to memorize the different, uh, keyboards.

✓ Then I started to memorize the different keyboards.

Remove unnecessary comma and filler; 'the different keyboards' is acceptable if referring to specific keyboard types. Article use is acceptable; correction simplifies punctuation.

× It could be a French keyboard or English keyboard, and then I developed.

✓ It could be a French keyboard or an English keyboard, and then I developed my skills further.

Add article 'an' before 'English keyboard' and complete the sentence by adding 'my skills further' to clarify what was developed. Preposition and article usage corrected and sentence completed.
