Examiner
Do you like chatting with friends?
Candidate
Yes, I like chatting with my friends. I usually catch up about what I did yesterday or what I ate for dinner last night. And I prefer chatting in the evening because it's a good way to relax after work.
Examiner
What do you usually chat about with friends?
Candidate
When it comes to I talk to with friend I always talk about something makes me fun because I do not want to be serious or I hate to feel depressed when I talk to his friends. So like the fun stuff will be the main topic.
Examiner
Do you prefer to chat with a group of people or with only one friend?
Candidate
I always prefer individual talk rather than group talk because when it comes to I talk in this huge group, I am inclined to be quiet and silent. But when I'm talking with only one friends, it's much easier for me to communicate.
Examiner
Do you prefer to communicate face-to-face or via social media?
Candidate
I prefer face to face communication rather than talking in social media because it's much easier to know the people's expression who I'm talking with and I can know easily how they're feeling when I'm talking.
Examiner
Do you argue with friends?
Candidate
Yes, I sometime argue with my friends because I'm currently studying abroad in Australia and there are a lot of people from different country and they all have different culture or identity. But it's quite interesting to share our the barriers with our way of thinking.
Do you like chatting with friends?
Score: 78.0Suggestion: 回答は自然で明確ですが、表現をより簡潔にし、文法と語順の改善でより流暢に聞こえます。具体的には、冗長な部分を減らし、接続詞で文をつなげ、時制と前置詞(e.g. "in the evening", "about what I did")に注意してください。また、語彙を少し広げて理由を詳しく述べると良いです。
Example: Yes, I enjoy chatting with my friends. We usually catch up about our day or what we had for dinner, and I prefer chatting in the evening because it helps me relax after work.
What do you usually chat about with friends?
Score: 52.0Suggestion: 意味は伝わりますが、文法や語順の誤りが多く、言いたいことが不明瞭になっています。自然な応答としては、まず主題を述べ、次にその理由と具体例を付ける構成にしてください。接続詞(because, so, for example)を正しく使い、主語と目的語の一致(friends, my friends)や代名詞の誤用に注意しましょう。
Example: I usually talk about light and fun topics with my friends because I don't want conversations to be serious or depressing. For example, we often share funny stories or recent events that made us laugh.
Do you prefer to chat with a group of people or with only one friend?
Score: 60.0Suggestion: 意図は明確ですが、冗長なフレーズと文法の誤り("one friends", 不自然な句)があります。まず結論を短く述べ、次に理由を一つか二つの具体例で補強してください。単数・複数の一致と簡潔な語順を意識しましょう。
Example: I prefer talking one-on-one rather than in a large group because I tend to be quieter in big groups. With one friend it's much easier to express my thoughts and have a deeper conversation.
Do you prefer to communicate face-to-face or via social media?
Score: 70.0Suggestion: 良い理由を述べていますが、表現をより自然にするために語順と前置詞を修正してください("face-to-face", "on social media", "the people I'm talking to")。また、接続詞で理由を明確にし、具体例(表情や声のトーン)を加えると説得力が増します。
Example: I prefer face-to-face communication to talking on social media because it's easier to read people's expressions and hear their tone of voice, so I can understand how they feel more accurately.
Do you argue with friends?
Score: 58.0Suggestion: 内容は良いですが、文法と語順の問題があり、いくつかのフレーズが不自然です("sometime"→"sometimes", "different country"→"different countries")。また、最後の文は意味が不明瞭なので、意見の理由と結果を分かりやすく説明してください。
Example: Yes, I sometimes argue with my friends because I'm studying abroad in Australia and we come from many different countries with different cultures. However, these discussions are interesting because they help us understand different perspectives and learn from each other.
× I usually catch up about what I did yesterday or what I ate for dinner last night.
✓ I usually catch up about what I did yesterday or what I ate for dinner.
The sentence mixes redundant time expressions: 'yesterday' and 'last night' are both past-time markers attached to different clauses. Remove 'last night' after 'dinner' to avoid redundancy and maintain clear past reference. Use consistent simple past tense for actions that already happened. Suggestion: Keep simple past tense and use one time marker per clause.
× When it comes to I talk to with friend I always talk about something makes me fun because I do not want to be serious or I hate to feel depressed when I talk to his friends.
✓ When I talk with friends, I always choose topics that are fun because I do not want to be serious or feel depressed when I talk to them.
Multiple structural issues: incorrect phrase 'When it comes to I talk to with friend' should be 'When I talk with friends'; 'something makes me fun' is ungrammatical — use 'topics that are fun'; 'talk to his friends' uses wrong pronoun and possessive — use 'them'. Also redundant 'I do not want to be serious or I hate to feel depressed' can be simplified. Suggestion: simplify clauses, use correct pronouns and relative clauses 'that are'. Maintain present simple for habitual actions.
× So like the fun stuff will be the main topic.
✓ So the fun stuff will be the main topic.
Minor style issue: 'like' is filler and unnecessary. Grammatically, sentence is acceptable but dropping 'like' makes it more natural. Keep future 'will be' if referring to typical choice; present simple 'is' can also be used for general statements. Suggestion: use 'is' for habits ('is the main topic') or keep 'will be' if speaking about a specific occasion.
× I always prefer individual talk rather than group talk because when it comes to I talk in this huge group, I am inclined to be quiet and silent.
✓ I always prefer talking one-on-one rather than in a group because when I speak in a large group I tend to be quiet.
'Prefer individual talk' is awkward — use 'prefer talking one-on-one'. 'When it comes to I talk' is incorrect word order; should be 'when I speak'. 'Huge group' is acceptable but 'large group' is more natural. 'Inclined to be quiet and silent' is redundant — 'quiet' suffices. Suggestion: use gerund after 'prefer' and streamline adjectives.
× But when I'm talking with only one friends, it's much easier for me to communicate.
✓ But when I'm talking with only one friend, it's much easier for me to communicate.
Mismatch between singular 'one' and plural 'friends' — use singular 'friend' after 'one'. Suggestion: ensure number agreement between determiners (one) and nouns.
× I prefer face to face communication rather than talking in social media because it's much easier to know the people's expression who I'm talking with and I can know easily how they're feeling when I'm talking.
✓ I prefer face-to-face communication rather than communicating via social media because it's much easier to read the expressions of the people I'm talking with and to know how they're feeling.
Use 'face-to-face' with hyphens as a compound adjective. 'Talking in social media' is unidiomatic — use 'communicating via social media'. 'Know the people's expression who I'm talking with' has wrong word order and articles; use 'read the expressions of the people I'm talking with'. Also streamline 'I can know easily' to 'to know'. Suggestion: use natural collocations 'communicate via' and 'read expressions'.
× Yes, I sometime argue with my friends because I'm currently studying abroad in Australia and there are a lot of people from different country and they all have different culture or identity.
✓ Yes, I sometimes argue with my friends because I'm currently studying abroad in Australia, and there are a lot of people from different countries who have different cultures and identities.
Adverb 'sometime' is incorrect; use 'sometimes'. 'Different country' should be plural 'different countries'. 'Different culture or identity' should be plural and 'or' replaced by 'and' when listing multiple differences. Suggestion: watch adverb forms and pluralize countable nouns when referring to many groups.
× But it's quite interesting to share our the barriers with our way of thinking.
✓ But it's quite interesting to share our perspectives about the barriers in our ways of thinking.
'Share our the barriers' has extra article 'the' and unclear noun usage. 'Share our perspectives about the barriers in our ways of thinking' clarifies meaning. Suggestion: use 'perspectives' or 'views' and correct article placement; express 'ways of thinking' as plural.
