Library— Part 1 採点レポート

提案: Be direct and relevant: answer the question clearly, avoid contradictory phrases and filler words. Start with a clear topic sentence (Yes/No + frequency), then give one brief reason with a specific detail. Limit to 2–3 sentences and remove hesitations like “uh” and “honestly speaking.”

例: Yes, I sometimes go to the library—about once a week—to study quietly. I usually go there when I need textbooks or a peaceful place to concentrate.

提案: Use a clear topic sentence and add two specific supporting details connected with linking words. Fix grammar (visit vs. go, borrow books) and avoid fillers. Keep sentences concise and coherent.

例: I mainly go to the library to complete my assignments. In addition, I often borrow reference books for my courses and sometimes use the computers there to research articles.

提案: Answer directly and combine similar ideas to avoid repetition. Use past tense consistently and provide one specific example of what you did there. Remove fillers and repeated words.

例: Yes, I visited the school library regularly to finish homework and read storybooks. For example, I often spent my free period borrowing novels and doing group projects there.

提案: If you are unsure, say so briefly and then give a general, cautious opinion with clear reasons. Avoid vague phrases and incorrect words (e.g., “googles”). Use linking words to structure your reply and be specific where possible.

例: I'm not certain about all Chinese children, but from what I've read online, many attend extra classes and spend less free time in libraries. However, some children still visit libraries to study or borrow books on weekends.

× Honestly speaking, I really go to the library because I always, uh, prefer to read books online.

✓ Honestly speaking, I rarely go to the library because I always prefer to read books online.

The student used 'really go' which is ungrammatical and conflicts with 'always prefer to read books online'. The intended meaning is likely 'rarely go'. This is a present tense frequency adverb issue: replace 'really' with the correct adverb 'rarely' to match the present simple tense and intended frequency. Suggestion: use appropriate frequency adverbs (always, usually, often, sometimes, rarely, never) placed before the main verb.

× Mostly I visit to the library to complete my assignments and sometime umm borrow any books or letter to my course that time I go there.

✓ Mostly I visit the library to complete my assignments and sometimes borrow books or letters for my course when I go there.

Errors include incorrect use of 'visit to' (should be 'visit' without 'to'), wrong word form 'sometime' (should be 'sometimes'), unnecessary 'any' before 'books' in positive statement, and awkward phrasing 'letter to my course that time I go there'. These are gerund/verb form and word choice issues. The verb 'visit' does not take 'to' after it; use 'visit the library'. Use 'sometimes' as the adverb. Use plural 'letters' and 'for my course' to show purpose, and 'when I go there' for time. Suggestion: remove extraneous preposition, use correct adverb forms, and simplify clause order.

× Yes, when I was at school, I visited to the library regularly to complete my school work. Uh, I often, uh, went there in my free time, free, free period.

✓ Yes, when I was at school, I visited the library regularly to complete my schoolwork. I often went there in my free periods.

'Visited to' is incorrect; 'visit' takes no 'to' (preposition error combined with past tense). 'School work' should be the compound noun 'schoolwork'. Repetition 'free, free period' is redundant and awkward; use plural 'free periods' if referring to multiple occasions. The verbs 'visited' and 'went' are correctly in past tense to match 'when I was at school'. Suggestion: remove unnecessary prepositions, use correct compound nouns, and pluralize time expressions when appropriate.

× Honestly speaking, I have not much knowledge about the Chinese kids.

✓ Honestly speaking, I do not have much knowledge about Chinese kids.

The original lacks the auxiliary 'do' required for negative present simple and uses 'about the Chinese kids' which implies a specific group; 'about Chinese kids' is more natural for a general statement. Also 'I have not much knowledge' is non-standard; 'I do not have much knowledge' or 'I don't know much' are correct. Suggestion: use auxiliary 'do' for negatives in present simple and omit 'the' for general plural references.

× I get some information about the googles and they spend a lot of time in curriculum activities as to go there and library to read the books.

✓ I got some information from Google, and I heard they spend a lot of time on curricular activities and go to the library to read books.

Multiple errors: 'get' tense inconsistent with prior sentence (use past or present consistently), 'the googles' is incorrect—use 'Google' or 'search engines'; preposition 'from Google' is appropriate. 'In curriculum activities' should be 'on curricular activities' or 'in curricular activities' but 'on' or 'in' with 'activities' varies; 'curricular' adjective fits better than 'curriculum' as noun. 'As to go there and library' is ungrammatical—use 'and go to the library'. 'The books' unnecessary; use 'books' generally. Suggestion: use 'from' with sources, correct noun/adjective forms (curricular), use 'go to the library', and keep tense consistent (I got/I have heard/I heard).

× I get some information about the googles and they spend a lot of time in curriculum activities as to go there and library to read the books.

✓ I got some information from Google, and I heard they spend a lot of time on curricular activities and go to the library to read books.

The clause 'they spend' is third person plural and here is fine, but 'as to go there and library' is incorrect structure; after 'they' use correct verb forms and prepositions. Also ensure verbs agree with subjects: if speaking about 'Chinese kids' (they), use plural verbs like 'spend' and 'go'. Suggestion: maintain subject-verb agreement and correct prepositions as above.
