Chatting— Part 1 採点レポート

提案: Make the response more natural and concise. Start with a clear topic sentence, avoid sentence fragments, fix grammar (articles, verb agreement), and use linking words to connect ideas. Limit to 3–4 sentences and give a specific example.

例: Yes, I enjoy chatting with friends, especially because we live in different countries. We message each other throughout the day, sharing funny stories from work and offering advice when someone has a problem. For example, last week we planned a virtual birthday surprise over chat.

提案: Use a topic sentence and clearer grammar. Use linking words (for example, sometimes, also) and provide one specific example to support your answer. Correct verb forms and pronouns.

例: We usually talk about a range of topics, such as work, personal problems, and future plans. For example, if a friend has an issue at work I will give advice, whereas other times we just have casual conversations about daily life.

提案: Begin with a clear topic sentence and use conditional linking (if... then...). Fix pronouns and informal words (wanna). Keep sentences concise and provide one clear example contrasting both choices.

例: It depends on the topic: for personal or serious matters I prefer one-to-one chats, because they feel more private. However, for casual daily talk or planning events, I prefer group chats since everyone can share ideas—for example, we used a group chat to organize a reunion.

提案: Provide a full topic sentence and avoid fragments. Use linking words (however, because) and correct phrasing (experience → express or convey). Give a brief, specific example of each mode.

例: It depends on the situation: for casual daily conversations I prefer social media because it is convenient. However, for personal matters when I need emotional support, I prefer face-to-face or one-to-one conversations because they allow me to express my feelings more clearly—for example, I would talk in person about a serious family issue.

提案: Expand the short answer into 2–3 sentences with a clear topic sentence and a supporting reason. Correct grammar (we don't → we rarely argue; everyone have → everyone is more self-aware). Provide a brief example of how you resolve conflicts.

例: We rarely argue. I think now we are older and more self-aware, so if a problem arises we prefer to sit down and discuss it calmly. For instance, when a misunderstanding happened last year we arranged a meeting and resolved it by listening to each other's point of view.

× Yes I do, especially each of us in a different country.

✓ Yes I do, especially since each of us is in a different country.

Use of 'especially' requires a clearer connector; 'since' indicates reason. Also need subject 'each of us' with verb 'is' for singular agreement. Suggestion: add 'since' and use correct verb agreement.

× We keep in touch through messaging throughout the day, sharing funny things about work, giving advice to each other and. Communicate easily through chatting.

✓ We keep in touch through messaging throughout the day, sharing funny things about work, giving advice to each other, and communicating easily through chatting.

The sentence had a misplaced period and a capitalized verb 'Communicate' making it fragmentary. Also parallelism requires gerund forms 'sharing, giving, and communicating' to match 'keep in touch'. Suggestion: remove the period, use commas and gerund for parallel structure.

× We talk about different topics, we can chat about our work or someone have a problem so I will give him advice or planning for a future.

✓ We talk about different topics; we can chat about our work, or if someone has a problem I will give them advice or plan for the future.

Run-on sentence needs proper punctuation (semicolon or conjunction). 'Someone have' is incorrect; use 'someone has' (third-person singular). 'Give him advice or planning' mixes verb forms; use 'give them advice or plan' with pronoun 'them' for gender neutrality and base verb 'plan'. Also 'for the future' is the correct phrase. Suggestion: fix punctuation, subject-verb agreement, pronoun, and verb forms.

× And sometimes we just making a casual conversation, nothing that important or deep.

✓ And sometimes we just have a casual conversation, nothing that important or deep.

'We just making' is incorrect; after subject 'we' use auxiliary verb 'are' for present continuous ('we are making') or use 'have' for habitual action. 'Have a conversation' is more natural here. Suggestion: use 'have' for this habitual simple present context.

× It depends on the subject, if I have personal or serious matter I'll prefer one to one chatting.

✓ It depends on the subject; if I have a personal or serious matter, I'll prefer one-to-one chatting.

Comma splice fixed with semicolon; missing article 'a' before 'personal or serious matter'; use hyphens in 'one-to-one' as a compound adjective. Suggestion: add article and punctuation and hyphens.

× But if he casual about daily life I would go for a group chatting.

✓ But if it's casual daily life, I would go for group chatting.

'He' is the wrong pronoun; need dummy pronoun 'it' to refer to the situation. Also 'casual about daily life' is awkward; 'casual daily life' or 'a casual topic about daily life' is better. 'A' before 'group chatting' is unnecessary. Suggestion: use 'it' and simplify phrase.

× Or if we wanna plan for a future, I would prefer group chatting because it's more convenient and everyone can share his thoughts.

✓ Or if we want to plan for the future, I would prefer group chatting because it's more convenient and everyone can share their thoughts.

Use formal 'want to' instead of 'wanna'. 'Plan for a future' should be 'plan for the future'. Use gender-neutral plural pronoun 'their' instead of 'his' when referring to 'everyone'. Suggestion: avoid informal contractions and use gender-neutral language.

× Depends on the matter.

✓ It depends on the matter.

Sentence fragment missing subject 'it'. Add 'It' to form a complete present-tense sentence. Suggestion: include the dummy pronoun 'it' for impersonal expressions.

× For a daily or casual conversation I would go for social media communication, but if it's something personal and I want more emotional support and advice, I prefer the one to one conversation because it can experience my feelings more easily.

✓ For a daily or casual conversation I would use social media, but if it's something personal and I want more emotional support and advice, I prefer a one-to-one conversation because it can convey my feelings more easily.

Use 'use social media' or 'use social media communication' for natural phrasing. 'The one to one conversation' needs articles and hyphens: 'a one-to-one conversation'. 'It can experience my feelings' is wrong; conversations do not 'experience' feelings — use 'convey' or 'express' to show emotions. Suggestion: adjust verbs and articles for natural expression.

× We don't. I think now we are older and everyone have more self aware if any issues come up we could sit down and solve it instead of arguing.

✓ We don't. I think now we are older and everyone is more self-aware; if any issues come up we can sit down and solve them instead of arguing.

'Everyone have' should be 'everyone is' (subject-verb agreement). 'More self aware' needs hyphen: 'self-aware'. Run-on sentence fixed with semicolon. 'Solve it' should be 'solve them' to agree with 'issues' (plural). 'Could' suggests conditional past; 'can' is better for present ability. Suggestion: fix agreement, hyphenation, pronoun number, and modal verb choice.
