Plants— Part 1 採点レポート

提案: Your answer is generally relevant but could be more natural and concise. Avoid filler words like 'umm' and improve sentence structure for clarity. Also, try to use linking words to connect ideas smoothly.

例: Yes, I grow a few beautiful and vibrant roses with my grandma. Whenever I visit home, I always check on them first because I enjoy taking care of them.

提案: Your answer lacks clarity and contains grammatical errors. Try to form complete sentences and use linking words to explain your experience clearly. Avoid vague phrases and be specific about your feelings or results.

例: When I was young, I planted tomatoes, but I was impatient and often forgot to water them. As a result, they didn't grow well, and I thought I didn't have a green thumb.

提案: Your answer is brief and contains a vocabulary mistake ('losing their soil' should be 'loosening the soil'). Expand your answer with more specific details and use linking words to make it coherent.

例: Yes, I know that plants need regular watering, loosening the soil to help roots breathe, and protection from pests to grow healthily.

提案: Your answer has several grammatical errors and unclear phrases. Avoid filler words like 'uh' and use correct vocabulary and sentence structures. Also, use linking words to organise your ideas logically.

例: Yes, flowers are considered plants, and many people send them as gifts during important occasions or festivals, such as Valentine's Day. For example, roses are often given to express love and appreciation.

× Yes, I plant a few roses with my grandma which is very beautiful and vibrant.

✓ Yes, I plant a few roses with my grandma which are very beautiful and vibrant.

The pronoun 'which' refers to 'a few roses', which is plural, so the verb should be 'are' instead of 'is' to agree in number.

× Every time I go home I definitely will look at it first because I just want to umm, take care of it.

✓ Every time I go home I definitely will look at them first because I just want to umm, take care of them.

The pronoun 'it' is singular but refers to 'a few roses', which is plural, so 'them' should be used for correct pronoun agreement.

× When I was young I planted a tomato, but I was impatient at that time so I kept forgetting water.

✓ When I was young I planted a tomato, but I was impatient at that time so I kept forgetting to water it.

The verb 'forgetting' needs the infinitive form 'to water' to correctly express the action, and 'water' as a noun is incorrect here; 'to water it' is the correct verb phrase.

× Then finally they did.

✓ Then finally it did.

The pronoun 'they' is plural but refers to 'a tomato', which is singular, so 'it' should be used for correct pronoun agreement.

× I thought I definitely didn't have a green.

✓ I thought I definitely didn't have a green thumb.

The phrase 'have a green' is incomplete and unclear; the correct idiom is 'have a green thumb', meaning to be good at gardening.

× I do know a few things about planting like watering regularly, losing their soil, and keeping them from pests.

✓ I do know a few things about planting like watering regularly, loosening their soil, and keeping them from pests.

The word 'losing' is incorrect here; the correct verb is 'loosening' when referring to soil to allow air and water to penetrate.

× Yes, uh, flowers can be count as plants.

✓ Yes, uh, flowers can be counted as plants.

The verb form 'count' is incorrect here; the passive form 'counted' is needed after 'can be'.

× So there are so many people to send flowers when they're a big ocane or festival like the valeting festival.

✓ So there are so many people who send flowers when there's a big occasion or festival like the Valentine's festival.

The phrase 'to send' is incorrect; 'who send' is appropriate to describe people performing an action. Also, 'ocane' is a misspelling of 'occasion', and 'valeting' should be 'Valentine's'.

× So many people they will send the roses at that time to convey their love and appreciate.

✓ So many people will send roses at that time to convey their love and appreciation.

The pronoun 'they' is redundant after 'so many people'. Also, 'appreciate' should be the noun 'appreciation' to match 'love'.
