Chatting— Part 1 採点レポート

提案: Be more natural and concise. Start with a clear topic sentence, then add one or two specific supporting details using correct grammar and linking words. Avoid redundancy and incorrect verb forms (e.g., "talking" not "to talk or chatting").

例: Yes, I enjoy chatting with my friends. I often message them on my phone to share ideas or ask for advice, especially about work or daily life.

提案: Structure your answer with a clear topic sentence and then give specific examples. Use linking words (for example, because, such as) and correct collocations (e.g., "work-related topics", "improve themselves"). Reduce hesitation words like "uh".

例: We usually talk about work-related topics because many of my friends have similar jobs. For example, we discuss how projects are going, ways to improve our skills, and plans for team activities.

提案: Answer directly then explain with a clear reason and example. Correct grammar ("it depends", "sometimes", "one friend"). Use linking words like "but" and "because" to make the response coherent.

例: It depends on the situation. I prefer group chats for team-related matters because we need to coordinate, but I usually talk one-on-one when the topic is personal or sensitive.

提案: Keep the answer natural and concise. Use precise reasons and linking words. Replace vague phrases like "like far from the location" with "when we are far apart" and correct grammar ("sometimes", "face-to-face").

例: It depends. I prefer face-to-face meetings for private or important conversations because they feel more personal, but I use social media to stay in touch when we are far apart or busy.

提案: Give a direct response and then explain your approach with correct vocabulary ("argue", "be silent", "explain why I disagree"). Avoid contradictions and filler words. Provide a brief example of how you handle disagreements.

例: Not usually. I try to avoid arguments; if I disagree, I calmly explain my point and listen to theirs. For instance, if a friend suggests something I disagree with, I say why and try to find a compromise.

× Of course, I love to talk or chatting with my friends.

✓ Of course, I love to talk or chat with my friends.

The coordinate verbs after 'love to' should be in base form ('talk' or 'chat'), not the -ing form. Use parallel structure: 'talk or chat'. Suggestion: choose 'talk' and 'chat' both in base form for consistency.

× I used to send messages on my mobile phone when I want to share my ideas or I want to take advice from other.

✓ I usually send messages on my mobile phone when I want to share my ideas or take advice from others.

'Used to' indicates a past habit and conflicts with 'when I want' (present). Replace 'used to' with 'usually' to match present habit. Also 'take advice from other' should be 'take advice from others' (plural). Suggestion: use 'usually' for habitual present, and pluralize 'others'.

× I used to send messages on my mobile phone when I want to share my ideas or I want to take advice from other.

✓ I usually send messages on my mobile phone when I want to share my ideas or take advice from others.

The phrase 'from other' is incorrect; 'other' must be plural or replaced by 'someone else' or 'others'. Use 'others' to refer to other people. Suggestion: use 'others' or 'someone else' depending on context.

× My mostly chat, uh, with my friends about work regarding so I have a lot of friends who work similar as me.

✓ I mostly chat with my friends about work, because I have a lot of friends who work in similar jobs to me.

'My mostly chat' is incorrect pronoun/word order; should be 'I mostly chat'. 'Regarding' is unnecessary. 'Work similar as me' is incorrect — use 'work in similar jobs to me' or 'have similar jobs'. Suggestion: start with subject 'I', place adverb 'mostly' after subject, and use 'similar to me' or 'in similar jobs'.

× So I chat how they are going, how they improve their self, how they're doing, how they're planning activities like that.

✓ So I chat about how they are getting on, how they improve themselves, how they're doing, and how they're planning activities.

Several issues: missing preposition 'about' before content. 'Improve their self' is incorrect pronoun/reflexive form — use 'themselves'. 'How they are going' is nonstandard; 'how they are getting on' or 'how they are doing' is clearer. Suggestion: add 'about', use 'themselves', and use consistent verbs.

× Uh, it's depend on the situation.

✓ Uh, it depends on the situation.

Present tense third person singular requires 'depends' not 'depend'. This is a subject-verb agreement/modal-like auxiliary error. Suggestion: use 'depends' for 'it' or restructure sentence.

× Sometime I prefer to talk in a group when we have a like a team work.

✓ Sometimes I prefer to talk in a group when we have team work.

Use plural adverb 'sometimes'. 'A like a team work' is incorrect; 'teamwork' is an uncountable noun or 'a team meeting' could be used. Remove extra 'a'. Suggestion: use 'sometimes' and 'teamwork' or 'a team meeting'.

× But mostly I give reference to talk only my one friend because sometime it's like a personal information so we can share with only one person or to everyone.

✓ But mostly I prefer to talk to only one friend because sometimes it's personal information, so we can share it with only one person or with everyone.

'Give reference to talk only my one friend' is ungrammatical; use 'prefer to talk to only one friend'. 'Sometime' -> 'sometimes'. 'A personal information' should be 'personal information' (uncountable), and pronoun 'it' needed. Also add 'with' before 'everyone'. Suggestion: use 'prefer to talk to', 'sometimes', and treat 'personal information' as uncountable.

× Sometime face to face communication is necessary to maintain privacy or sometimes it's easy to use social media when we are like far from the location.

✓ Sometimes face-to-face communication is necessary to maintain privacy, and sometimes it's easier to use social media when we are far away.

Use 'sometimes' not 'sometime'. 'Face-to-face' should be hyphenated in compound adjective. 'It's easy' should be comparative 'easier' to contrast. 'Far from the location' is awkward; use 'far away' or 'far from each other'. Suggestion: use 'sometimes', 'face-to-face', 'easier', and 'far away'.

× To be honest, I don't like to argument with people if they don't like my opinion.

✓ To be honest, I don't like to argue with people if they don't like my opinion.

'Argument' is a noun; context requires the verb 'argue'. Use 'argue with' to indicate disagreeing verbally. Suggestion: replace noun with correct verb form.

× I don't like their, uh, ideas.

✓ I don't like their ideas.

Remove filler commas and pauses in written form; the sentence is fine without the hesitation. No adjective/adverb error other than punctuation. Suggestion: write smoothly without pauses.

× I prefer to be a silent or clarify them why I'm not. Agree with that.

✓ I prefer to be silent or to clarify to them why I don't agree with that.

'Be a silent' is incorrect article and noun usage; use adjective 'silent' without article. 'Clarify them why I'm not. Agree with that.' is fragmented and misordered. Use 'clarify to them why I don't agree with that' for correct structure. Suggestion: remove article before 'silent', use 'clarify to them', and combine fragments into one sentence.
