打字— Part 1 評分報告

建議: Be more concise and natural: start with a clear topic sentence stating your preference, then give one or two specific reasons using linking words. Avoid repetition ("much faster" and "very quickly" mean the same). Correct small grammar issues ("digital tools... are very rare" -> "were rare").

範例: I prefer typing nowadays. Although I used to like handwriting when computers were uncommon, I now type because it’s much faster and easier to edit documents. For example, typing helps me finish reports and correct mistakes quickly.

建議: Make the answer more direct and reduce redundancy. Use a clear topic sentence and give one specific example. Replace vague phrasing ("work on something that I'm interested in") with precise activities. Check collocations: "learn Excel" or "work on Excel worksheets".

範例: Yes, I type on both a desktop and a laptop nearly every day. I often work on Excel worksheets to analyse data and learn new functions, such as pivot tables and formulas.

建議: Give a clear, grammatically correct response with a precise time reference and concise supporting detail. Avoid unsure fillers like "I think" and correct prepositions ("in middle school" not "on in").

範例: I learned to type when I was eight during PC lessons at my primary school. Later, in middle school, I continued practising and improved my speed.

建議: Correct word choice and grammar: use "improved" not "impaired." Start with a direct statement about how you improve, then give one or two specific methods and frequency. Use linking words to make it coherent.

範例: I improved my typing by practising regularly during computer lessons in middle school. For example, my teacher gave us spreadsheet exercises, and I practised them every day to build accuracy and speed.

× I used to prefer handwriting because digital tools like PCs are very rare.

✓ I used to prefer handwriting because digital tools like PCs were very rare.

The sentence refers to a past habitual preference (used to) and explains a past reason; therefore the verb describing the state of digital tools should be in the past tense ('were') to match the time reference. Suggestion: keep time frames consistent—use past tense verbs when explaining past situations.

× But nowadays I prefer typing to handwriting because it's much faster and I can do my jobs with it very quickly.

✓ But nowadays I prefer typing to handwriting because it is much faster and I can do my work with it very quickly.

'It's' is acceptable but using full 'it is' is clearer; more importantly 'my jobs' is unnatural—use 'my work' for general tasks. This is a vocabulary/usage correction that fits present-tense context. Suggestion: use 'work' for general tasks and maintain present simple for habits.

× Yes, I type on the desktop and our laptop keyboard almost every day to work on something that I'm interested in, like learning some Excel worksheets or how to do exposure data analysis.

✓ Yes, I type on the desktop and our laptop keyboards almost every day to work on things that I'm interested in, such as learning about Excel or how to do exposure data analysis.

Plural agreement: When referring to both a desktop and a laptop, use plural 'keyboards.' 'Something that I'm interested in' is awkward; 'things that I'm interested in' or 'subjects I am interested in' fits better. 'Learning some Excel worksheets' is incorrect; you learn Excel or learn to use Excel worksheets. Suggestion: ensure nouns agree in number with subjects and choose appropriate collocations (learn Excel, work on things).

× I think I was like 8 when I learned how to type on a keyboard.

✓ I think I was about 8 when I learned how to type on a keyboard.

'Like' used in this context is informal and ambiguous; use 'about' to indicate approximate age. Tense is correct (past). Suggestion: use 'about' or 'around' for approximate ages in semi-formal speech.

× I learned how to use them on our PC lessons on in the middle school.

✓ I learned how to use them in our PC lessons in middle school.

Preposition placement was incorrect and had redundancy ('on in'). Use 'in' for lessons and 'in middle school' (no article). Suggestion: place 'in' before 'our PC lessons' and omit 'the' before 'middle school.'

× I impaired my typing by practicing on these computer lessons that I gave in middle school.

✓ I improved my typing by practicing in the computer lessons that I had in middle school.

The original used 'impaired' (wrong meaning) instead of 'improved.' Use past tense 'had' to indicate the lessons occurred in the past. Also use 'in the computer lessons' not 'on these.' Suggestion: choose correct verbs ('improved' vs 'impaired') and correct prepositions for activities ('in lessons').

× Our teacher gave us some spreadsheets to practice and I did them like every day.

✓ Our teacher gave us some spreadsheets to practice on and I did them almost every day.

Add the preposition 'on' after 'practice' to form the correct phrasal expression 'practice on spreadsheets.' 'Like every day' is informal; use 'almost every day.' Suggestion: use appropriate prepositions and avoid informal fillers like 'like' in semi-formal responses.
