Typing— Part 1 Report

Suggestion: Give a direct topic sentence that answers and then expand with a brief reason and an example. Avoid one-word answers and be natural. Use linking words like 'because' or 'however' to connect ideas. Also try to keep to no more than 3–4 sentences.

Example: I prefer both typing and handwriting because each suits different tasks. For instance, I type when I need to write emails or finish assignments quickly, but I handwrite notes when I want to remember information better. Therefore, I choose the method based on my purpose.

Suggestion: Start with a clear topic sentence that states which device you use, then add a short reason or context. Correct minor fluency issues (remove repeated words) and use linking words like 'because' or 'so' for coherence. Keep it to 1–3 sentences.

Example: I type on a desktop computer on a regular basis because I work from home and prefer a larger screen and full keyboard. However, I sometimes use my laptop when I need to work on the go.

Suggestion: Provide a clear time reference and a brief explanation of how you learned. Replace vague answers like 'Now only' with a specific period (e.g., 'a few years ago' or 'recently') and add one supporting detail about learning method. Use linking words such as 'when' or 'because'.

Example: I learned to type properly a few years ago when I started university, because I needed to write essays faster. I practiced with online typing courses and daily exercises to improve my speed.

Suggestion: Give a concise topic sentence describing your method, then add specifics: how often you practice, what activities or tools you use, and one result or goal. Use linking words like 'by' or 'so' and correct grammar (e.g., 'by practicing regularly').

Example: I improve my typing by practicing for about 20 minutes every day using typing software and online drills. As a result, my accuracy and speed have gradually increased, so I can finish tasks more quickly.

× I prefer both.

✓ I prefer both typing and handwriting.

The original sentence 'I prefer both.' is grammatically acceptable but unclear; it omits the parallel nouns referenced in the question. This is a clarity and parallelism issue rather than a pure grammatical error. To be clear and parallel with the question, include both nouns: 'typing' and 'handwriting'. Use gerunds to match the verb 'prefer'. Suggestion: Always restate paired items when answering concisely to avoid ambiguity.

× I I type on desktop on regular basis.

✓ I type on a desktop regularly.

Errors: duplicated 'I', missing article before 'desktop', and incorrect phrase 'on regular basis'. Use 'a desktop' for singular countable noun. Use the adverb 'regularly' to modify the verb. Remove the extra 'I'. Suggestion: Check for accidental repeated words, use articles with singular countable nouns, and prefer adverbs (regularly) instead of noun phrases ('on a regular basis').

× Now only.

✓ I learned to type only recently.

'Now only.' is fragmentary and not a complete answer. The question asks when the student learned; use past tense to indicate a completed action. 'Only recently' expresses 'just now' in past context. Provide a full clause: 'I learned to type only recently.' Suggestion: Avoid sentence fragments; respond in a full clause matching the expected tense (past simple) for 'When did you...?' questions.

× By taking regular basis practice on daily life.

✓ By practicing regularly in my daily life.

Problems: incorrect noun phrase 'regular basis practice', wrong preposition 'on daily life', and awkward structure. Use the gerund 'practicing' after 'by' to show method. Use adverb 'regularly' and prepositional phrase 'in my daily life' or simply 'daily'. Suggestion: After 'by' show method with verb+ing (gerund), choose concise collocations like 'practice regularly' or 'practice daily', and use correct prepositions ('in my daily life' or omit for brevity).
