Typing— Part 1 採点レポート

提案: Be more concise and clear. Start with a direct topic sentence (e.g., “I prefer typing.”), then give one specific reason and an example. Avoid fillers (“uh”, “umm”) and incorrect phrases like “hands are so hard.” Instead say something like “my hand cramps” or “my handwriting is slow and uncomfortable.” Keep the answer to 2–3 sentences.

例: I prefer typing. For example, handwriting makes my hand cramp and I write slowly, so typing on a keyboard is faster and more comfortable for me.

提案: Answer directly and combine sentences more smoothly. Use linking words to explain reason. Remove hesitations. Say “I usually use my laptop” and follow with a brief reason and frequency detail. Keep it within 2–3 sentences.

例: I usually type on my laptop almost every day because I don’t have a desktop at home, so I rely on my MacBook for studying and work.

提案: Be specific and clear with dates/ages. Start with a direct answer (e.g., “I learned when I was seven or eight, in primary school.”), then add one brief detail about how you learned. Avoid disfluent fragments and incorrect phrasing like “desk desktop.”

例: I learned to type when I was about seven or eight in primary school. My teacher gave us basic lessons using a desktop computer in the school computer lab.

提案: Give a direct answer and suggest a plan to improve. Instead of just saying “I don't,” explain current situation and one concrete step you could take. Use linking words (e.g., “however”, “so”) and correct grammar: “I still use two-finger typing” and “typing is a bit difficult for me.”

例: I haven’t practiced much and still use two-finger typing, so typing can be difficult for me. However, I plan to improve by using online typing lessons for 15 minutes a day to learn touch-typing and increase my speed.

× I usually prefer typing because handwriting is little uncomfortable for me because, uh, when I use my hand to write something, my hands are so hard.

✓ I usually prefer typing because handwriting is a little uncomfortable for me; when I use my hand to write something, my hand gets very tired.

The phrase 'little uncomfortable' is an incorrect adverb/adjective usage; 'a little uncomfortable' is idiomatic. 'My hands are so hard' is incorrect for expressing fatigue; use 'my hand gets very tired' or 'my hands get tired.' Also avoid repeating 'because' and replace with a semicolon or conjunction for clarity.

× I often use laptop keyboard almost every day.

✓ I often use my laptop keyboard almost every day.

Missing the possessive determiner 'my' before 'laptop keyboard' is an incorrect use/omission of a preposition/determiner. Adding 'my' makes the sentence grammatically correct and clear.

× Uh, I don't have any desktop in my room, so I have to use my MacBook.

✓ I don't have a desktop in my room, so I have to use my MacBook.

'Any desktop' is awkward here; use the indefinite article 'a desktop' when referring to a single, noncountable object in a positive statement. 'Any' is typically used in negatives with plural/countable nouns or uncountable nouns for emphasis, but 'a desktop' is more natural.

× I think it was. UH-7 or 8IN primary school my teacher taught me how to type on keyboard.

✓ I think it was when I was seven or eight in primary school; my teacher taught me how to type on the keyboard.

The original mixes fragments and lacks proper tense structure. Use 'was' with 'when I was seven or eight' to indicate past age. Insert 'the' before 'keyboard.' Also correct the numeral words and punctuation for clarity.

× It was desk desktop though.

✓ It was on a desktop computer, though.

The phrase 'desk desktop' is incorrect and unclear. Use 'on a desktop computer' to indicate the device used. 'Though' can remain at the end for contrast.

× I don't. I still use the two finger typing though I'm adult now, typing is little difficult to me.

✓ I don't. I still use two-finger typing; though I'm an adult now, typing is a little difficult for me.

Remove the article 'the' before 'two-finger typing' and use the adjective form with a hyphen. Add 'an' before 'adult.' Use 'a little difficult for me' instead of 'little difficult to me.' Use punctuation to separate clauses for clarity.
