Reading— Part 1 採点レポート

提案: Be more concise and natural: start with a clear topic sentence, avoid fillers (uh), and give one or two specific supporting details. Use linking words (however, although, because) correctly and vary vocabulary (e.g., 'novels' instead of 'a novel or something'). Aim for 2–4 sentences and correct small grammar errors (e.g., 'for practical purposes').

例: To be honest, I'm not really into reading for pleasure. However, because of my job and studies I read a lot of documents and articles for practical purposes, such as reports and manuals. I usually read to extract information rather than for enjoyment.

提案: Focus on a clear topic sentence and fix small grammar and word-choice issues. Replace 'used to' with 'am used to' and 'assess' with 'access'. Remove redundancy and keep it within 2–4 sentences. Add a brief specific example (e.g., reading PDFs or articles) to strengthen the response.

例: I prefer reading on a screen because it's more convenient for me. Since I work on a computer every day, I am used to reading PDFs and online articles, and I can quickly access a wide range of materials without carrying physical books.

提案: Organize the answer into a clear contrast with linking words (e.g., 'when... but when...'). Eliminate fillers and correct grammar and word choice ('seeing' -> 'because', 'scan document' -> 'scan documents', 'Thor' -> 'thoroughly'). Provide one concrete example of materials you scan versus those you read carefully. Keep to 2–4 sentences.

例: I read carefully when I'm studying or doing research because I need a deep understanding of the topic. In contrast, at work I usually scan documents such as emails or reports to find key facts quickly, and only read them thoroughly later if the issue requires more attention.

提案: Start with a clear direct answer and avoid vague or incorrect phrases ('scheme to contain' is unclear). Remove repetition and correct grammar ('reading in detail' -> 'detailed reading'). Give one brief reason and a specific example, and mention an exception if necessary. Keep the response within 2–4 sentences.

例: I prefer detailed reading because I want to understand information accurately and avoid missing important points. However, in urgent work situations I sometimes scan emails or summaries to finish tasks quickly, then return to read the full document later.

× so I already used to reading digital content and material.

✓ so I am already used to reading digital content and material.

The phrase 'used to' (past habit) is different from 'be used to' (be accustomed to). The speaker intends to express a present state of being accustomed, which requires the passive/be + 'used to' + gerund. Use 'am used to reading' to show current habit or familiarity.

× It's also easier to assess a wide range of material online so I don't need to carry physical book around.

✓ It's also easier to access a wide range of material online, so I don't need to carry physical books around.

Two issues: 'assess' is likely a word choice error; 'access' fits context. Also 'physical book' needs a plural 'books' or an article 'a physical book'. Here 'a wide range of material' implies multiple items, so use plural 'books'. A comma before 'so' improves sentence clarity.

× I read carefully when I'm studying or doing research, seeing I need a deeper understanding uh, but at work I often just scan document to quickly find the information I need to solve a problem.

✓ I read carefully when I'm studying or doing research, since I need a deeper understanding, but at work I often just scan documents to quickly find the information I need to solve a problem.

'seeing' is an informal or incorrect conjunction here; use 'since' or 'because' to show reason. Also 'document' should be plural 'documents' to match context. Remove filler 'uh' for clarity and add commas to separate clauses.

× Then later if necessary, I read it more Thor thoroughly in my free time.

✓ Then later, if necessary, I read it more thoroughly in my free time.

'Thor' appears to be a typo and must be removed. 'Thoroughly' is the correct adverb to modify 'read'. Add commas for clarity.

× I always scheme to contain in urgent cases at work when I need to finish something quickly.

✓ I always try to skim or read selectively in urgent cases at work when I need to finish something quickly.

The original sentence uses incorrect words: 'scheme to contain' is meaningless here. Likely intended 'try to skim' or 'scan'. 'Skim' or 'read selectively' fit context. This correction fixes word choice and clarifies meaning while preserving the tense and context.
