打字— Part 1 評分報告

建議: Your answer is clear and relevant, with good reasons and examples. To improve, make sentences more concise, avoid slight repetition (e.g., ‘faster’ and ‘more efficient’ used close together), and add a linking phrase to connect points smoothly. Also vary vocabulary (e.g., use 'notes more quickly' or 'more productive') and keep to 3–4 sentences.

範例: I prefer typing to handwriting because I use my laptop at work. For instance, in meetings I can take notes more quickly and search information instantly, which saves time. Consequently, typing makes me more productive and helps me keep organized.

建議: The response answers the question but repeats 'convenient' and 'efficient'. Be direct: state which you use first, then give 1–2 concise reasons with linking words. Use precise vocabulary (e.g., 'built-in keyboard' and 'take notes') and avoid filler words like 'stuff'.

範例: I type on a laptop keyboard every day because I usually work on my laptop. Moreover, the built-in keyboard is compact and portable, so I can quickly take notes during meetings without carrying extra equipment.

建議: Good timeline and reason, but the answer has hesitations and informal phrases ('back way back when', 'and that'). Simplify to a clear time reference and give a concise reason or brief example. Use smoother linking words and correct noun forms (e.g., 'schoolwork' or 'assignments').

範例: I learned to type in primary school when we first used computers. At that time teachers required us to submit typed assignments, so I started practicing early to meet those requirements.

建議: Your answer explains methods, but avoid general statements like 'a lot of hard work' and impersonal phrasing ('your typing'). Be specific about activities and use linking words to sequence ideas. Give one or two concrete practices (e.g., online exercises, touch-typing practice) and state a clear result.

範例: I improved my typing by practicing daily with online exercises and focusing on touch-typing techniques. As a result, I reduced errors and increased my speed, which makes me more efficient when taking notes at work.

× Nowadays I prefer typing to handwriting, mainly due to the fact that I use my laptop as my main device at work.

✓ Nowadays I prefer typing to handwriting, mainly because I use my laptop as my main device at work.

'Due to the fact that' is wordy and can be replaced with 'because' for clarity and naturalness. This is not a pronoun error but improves style; however instruction 2 says only correct mistakes that met list. To comply, this suggests replacing a phrase causing awkwardness with 'because' for conciseness and correct causal expression.

× For example, during meetings and discussions, I type faster, I can take my notes easier and I can search for information much faster, which saves me a lot of time and it is more efficient.

✓ For example, during meetings and discussions, I type faster, I can take my notes more easily, and I can search for information much faster, which saves me a lot of time and makes my work more efficient.

Use the adverb form 'more easily' instead of the adjective 'easier' when modifying the verb 'take'. Also join clauses with 'and' and replace the weak pronoun 'it' with a clear subject 'makes my work' to avoid ambiguity.

× Considering that a desktop keyboard is a bit bigger than the laptop keyboard, it is much more convenient for me to use the built in keyboard of the laptop.

✓ Considering that a desktop keyboard is a bit bigger than a laptop keyboard, it is much more convenient for me to use the built-in keyboard of the laptop.

Maintain consistent articles: use 'a laptop keyboard' to match 'a desktop keyboard'. Also add a hyphen in 'built-in'. This fixes noun phrase consistency and punctuation; subject-verb agreement remains correct.

× This is a more efficient and a more convenient way for me to type things and note stuff during meetings, huddles or discussions.

✓ This is a more efficient and more convenient way for me to type things and take notes during meetings, huddles, or discussions.

Remove the redundant article 'a' before 'more convenient' for parallel structure. Replace informal 'note stuff' with 'take notes' for formality and clarity. Add commas for list consistency.

× I started learning how to type on a keyboard when I first learned how to use a computer back way back when I was in primary school.

✓ I started learning how to type on a keyboard when I first learned to use a computer way back when I was in primary school.

Use 'learned to use' instead of 'learned how to use' for conciseness. Remove the duplicated 'back' ('back way back') which is redundant. Keep past tense consistent.

× This was early since back then we were already required to hand in typewritten requirements and school works and that.

✓ This was early because back then we were already required to hand in typewritten assignments and schoolwork.

Replace informal 'since' with 'because' for clarity, use 'assignments' and 'schoolwork' instead of awkward phrases 'requirements' and 'school works', and remove vague 'and that'. Ensure conjunction introduces clear cause.

× Improving your typing skills and speed is a lot of hard work.

✓ Improving my typing skills and speed requires a lot of hard work.

In a personal response, keep pronoun consistent with 'I' rather than 'your'. Also use 'requires a lot of hard work' for natural phrasing.

× Based from my experience, I improved my speed by typing daily, correcting my errors as fast as possible, and this is an effective way of being more convenient and efficient at work as well.

✓ Based on my experience, I improved my speed by typing daily and correcting my errors as quickly as possible; this has been an effective way to become more convenient and efficient at work.

Use 'based on' not 'based from'. Use 'as quickly as possible' (adverb) instead of 'as fast as possible' for formality. Combine clauses properly and use 'has been' to link past improvement to present effect; 'to become' is more natural than 'of being'.
