Typing— Part 1 採点レポート

提案: Answer directly and naturally. Start with a clear topic sentence stating your preference, then give one or two specific reasons using linking words. Keep it concise (no more than 5 sentences) and avoid repeating the examiner's question.

例: I prefer typing to handwriting because it's faster and more convenient. For example, I can edit and share documents easily on my laptop, which saves time. In contrast, handwriting is slower and harder to revise.

提案: Your answer is direct and clear but could be expanded slightly with a brief reason or detail to sound more natural. Add one short supporting detail using a linking word to connect it to the topic sentence.

例: I type on a laptop every day because I use it for both work and study. As a result, I’m comfortable typing quickly and carrying the device between classes and home.

提案: Improve grammar and add a little extra detail. Begin with a clear topic sentence, correct the tense and article use, and then give a short supporting detail (for example, where or how you learned) using a linking word.

例: I learned to type on a keyboard when I was 15. I took a computer class at school, so I practiced regularly and improved quickly.

提案: Make a complete, grammatical sentence and provide a specific method or example of how you practice. Use linking words to show process or result. Keep it concise and natural.

例: I improve my typing by practicing regularly with online typing exercises. For instance, I do 15 minutes of accuracy drills every day, which has helped me increase my speed and reduce errors.

× When I was 15 I learned how to type on keyboard.

✓ When I was 15 I learned how to type on a keyboard.

The sentence is missing the article 'a' before the countable noun 'keyboard'. This is an article error (use of definite/indefinite article). Add 'a' to make it grammatically correct: 'on a keyboard'. Also keep past tense 'learned' which matches the time 'When I was 15'.

× Improving my typing, my practicing.

✓ I improve my typing by practicing.

The original phrase is ungrammatical and uses a comma splice with two noun phrases that do not form a proper clause. The intended meaning is a habitual action, so use a full sentence with subject and verb: 'I improve my typing by practicing.' This uses the present simple to describe a regular activity and the preposition 'by' to show the method. Alternatively, 'I improve my typing through practice' or 'I improve my typing by practicing regularly.'
