Library— Part 1 採点レポート

提案: Try to make your answer more concise and avoid repetition. Use linking words to connect ideas smoothly and correct grammar mistakes, such as 'an interesting books' should be 'interesting books' or 'an interesting book.' Also, avoid repeating 'I used to go' multiple times; instead, vary your sentence structure.

例: I used to visit the library daily during my university years because it was a quiet place where I could read interesting books. However, now I am busy and don't have enough time to go there, although I really enjoyed those visits.

提案: Focus on answering the question directly and avoid unnecessary repetition. Use linking words like 'for example' or 'in addition' to connect your ideas. Also, try to use more precise vocabulary and correct tense usage, such as 'I wanted' instead of 'I first wanted' and avoid repeating 'interesting' multiple times.

例: When I went to the library, I usually looked for a quiet spot to relax and concentrate on my homework. In addition, I enjoyed reading interesting books and the daily newspaper available there.

提案: Avoid filler words like 'uh' and incomplete sentences. Make your answer more coherent by using linking words such as 'however' and 'although.' Also, correct grammar mistakes like 'borrow book' should be 'borrow books.' Try to complete your thoughts fully.

例: No, when I was a kid, there were not many libraries in my area. However, our school had a small library where we couldn't read on-site, but we were allowed to borrow books. I used to borrow many books from there.

提案: Try to answer more confidently and avoid vague phrases like 'maybe there are.' Use linking words to organize your answer and correct grammar errors such as 'it's very usual to having' should be 'it's very common to have.'

例: I don't live in China, so I am not sure about Chinese kids' library habits. However, it is common for children in many countries to visit libraries to explore new knowledge, so I believe Chinese kids do as well.

× I used to go there for sitting in a quiet place and reading an interesting books.

✓ I used to go there to sit in a quiet place and read interesting books.

The phrase 'used to' indicates past habitual actions, so the verbs following it should be in their base form, not '-ing' form. Also, 'an interesting books' is incorrect because 'books' is plural and should not be preceded by 'an'. Instead, use 'interesting books' without 'an'.

× I used to go there for sitting in a quiet place and reading an interesting books.

✓ I used to go there to sit in a quiet place and read interesting books.

The noun 'books' is plural, so it should not be preceded by the singular article 'an'. Removing 'an' corrects the singular/plural mismatch.

× But nowadays I got busy and don't get enough time to go to library.

✓ But nowadays I get busy and don't have enough time to go to the library.

The phrase 'nowadays' indicates present tense, so 'got' (past tense) should be 'get'. Also, 'don't get enough time' is awkward; 'don't have enough time' is more natural. Additionally, 'go to library' requires the definite article 'the' before 'library'.

× But nowadays I got busy and don't get enough time to go to library.

✓ But nowadays I get busy and don't have enough time to go to the library.

In English, 'library' as a specific place usually requires the definite article 'the'. Omitting 'the' before 'library' is incorrect.

× When I used to go to the library, I first wanted to find a quiet place where I can relax and focus on my homework or other things like reading an interesting book or finding any interesting resources from the library.

✓ When I used to go to the library, I first wanted to find a quiet place where I could relax and focus on my homework or other things like reading an interesting book or finding any interesting resources from the library.

The sentence mixes past and present tense incorrectly. Since the context is past habitual actions, 'can' should be changed to 'could' to maintain past tense consistency.

× No, when I was a kid, there was not much availability of library in my area.

✓ No, when I was a kid, there was not much availability of libraries in my area.

'Library' should be plural 'libraries' because 'availability' refers to the presence of multiple libraries, not just one.

× No, when I was a kid, there was not much availability of library in my area.

✓ No, when I was a kid, there was not much availability of libraries in my area.

When talking about availability in general, the plural form without an article is appropriate.

× Uh, but we can borrow book from there.

✓ Uh, but we could borrow books from there.

'Book' should be plural 'books' because borrowing usually involves multiple items. Also, 'can' should be 'could' to match past tense context.

× Uh, but we can borrow book from there.

✓ Uh, but we could borrow books from there.

The sentence refers to past ability, so 'can' should be changed to 'could'.

× And I used to borrow a lot of book from there and.

✓ And I used to borrow a lot of books from there.

'Book' should be plural 'books' because 'a lot of' is used with plural countable nouns.

× As I do not stay in China, I don't have any knowledge about their kids going to the library, but it's very usual to having a library in every country where the child can explore new kinds of knowledge, so maybe there are.

✓ As I do not live in China, I don't have any knowledge about their kids going to the library, but it's very usual to have a library in every country where children can explore new kinds of knowledge, so maybe there are.

'Stay' is less appropriate than 'live' for residence. 'To having' is incorrect; it should be 'to have' after 'usual'. Also, 'the child' should be plural 'children' to match 'every country' context.
