Chatting— Part 1 채점 보고서

제안: Be more natural and concise. Start with a direct topic sentence answering the question, then add one or two brief supporting details. Avoid unclear phrases (e.g. “every child we have”, “sleep in a joke”) and aim for correct collocations and grammar.

예시: Yes, I do. My friends are very funny, and whether we chat online or in person we often end up joking around. That light atmosphere makes our conversations enjoyable and relaxed.

제안: Give a direct topic sentence and then specific examples with linking words. Avoid vague lists and redundant phrases. Use clearer phrasing for opinions and abilities.

예시: We talk about a wide range of topics. For example, we discuss current political events, historical episodes and even science like biology, and I like that my friends can contribute useful opinions even on unfamiliar subjects.

제안: Answer directly then compare concisely using linking words. Keep sentences natural and avoid repetition. Add one short reason for each preference to show depth.

예시: I enjoy both equally. With one close friend conversations tend to be deeper and more personal, whereas group chats are livelier and entertaining, so both suit me depending on my mood.

제안: Start with a clear direct answer and correct grammar. Replace vague phrases like “on the subconscious level” with concrete reasons (body language, tone). Limit to two or three sentences.

예시: I prefer face-to-face communication. In person I can read body language and tone of voice, which reduces misunderstandings and helps build a deeper connection.

제안: Answer directly and give a concise reason with a linking word. Avoid awkward phrasing like “we really have not any issues” — use natural collocations.

예시: Not usually. I’m a calm person and my friends are supportive, so disagreements are rare and we usually resolve small issues quickly.

× Of course my friends are really funny and every child we have, no matter if it's online or offline, gets hilarious very quickly.

✓ Of course my friends are really funny, and whenever we chat, whether online or offline, conversations become hilarious very quickly.

Original sentence has incorrect phrase 'every child we have' which is unrelated and likely a mistaken structure; it also misuses 'gets hilarious' for conversations. This is a sentence structure error (ID 26). Suggestion: replace the unclear phrase with 'whenever we chat' and use 'conversations become hilarious' to convey the intended meaning clearly.

× So whenever we discuss something we always manage to sleep in a joke or two.

✓ So whenever we discuss something, we always manage to slip in a joke or two.

The verb 'sleep in' is incorrect here; the intended phrasal verb is 'slip in' meaning to insert casually. This is an error with verb choice/participial form (ID 10). Suggestion: use the correct phrasal verb 'slip in'.

× It's everything really, starting with the political events, history, biology, science, etcetera.

✓ It's everything, really, starting with political events, history, biology, science, etcetera.

Using 'the' before 'political events' is unnecessary in this general list. This is an article error (ID 22). Suggestion: omit the definite article when listing general subjects.

× That's the thing I enjoy the most about my friends.

✓ That's what I enjoy most about my friends.

'That's the thing I enjoy the most' is wordy and slightly awkward; rephrasing to 'That's what I enjoy most' improves clarity and naturalness. This is a sentence structure/style issue (ID 26). Suggestion: simplify the clause and remove redundant articles.

× It's their ability to support any conversation and form an opinion on the way, even if the subject is not really familiar.

✓ It's their ability to support any conversation and form an opinion on the spot, even if the subject is not very familiar.

'On the way' is incorrect in this context; the correct idiom is 'on the spot' meaning immediately. Also 'not really familiar' is better as 'not very familiar'. This is an error in verb/adverbial phrase usage (ID 10). Suggestion: use the correct idiom and adjust adverb for naturalness.

× I think I like these options equally.

✓ I think I like both options equally.

'These options' is acceptable but 'both options' is clearer when referring to two choices. This is a pronoun/structure clarity issue (ID 12 and 26). Suggestion: use 'both' to explicitly refer to the two options mentioned.

× I have my best friends with whom we can discuss anything and all our talks will be meaningful.

✓ I have my best friends with whom I can discuss anything and all our talks are meaningful.

The original mixes 'we' and 'I' awkwardly and uses future 'will be' incorrectly for a habitual state. Change to 'I' to match 'have' and use present 'are' for habitual truth. This is subject-verb/tense agreement issue (ID 27 and 6). Suggestion: keep pronouns consistent and use present tense for general truths.

× And I also have a group of friends and our conversations, even if leaning more towards jokes, are still as fulfilling.

✓ I also have a group of friends, and our conversations, even when they lean more towards jokes, are still fulfilling.

Sentence is mostly correct but slightly awkward; remove 'as' before 'fulfilling' unless comparing to something, and clarify participial clause with 'when they lean'. This is an article/structure refinement (ID 22 and 26). Suggestion: make the clause explicit and avoid unnecessary comparative words.

× I definitely prefer personal communication is that allows me to feel the person I'm talking to on the subconscious level.

✓ I definitely prefer personal communication because it allows me to sense the person I'm talking to on a subconscious level.

Original contains a fused sentence 'prefer personal communication is that allows' which is ungrammatical. Use 'because it allows' and 'sense' rather than 'feel' with 'on a subconscious level' which is more natural. This is a sentence structure error (ID 26). Suggestion: use a subordinating conjunction and correct verb choice.

× I can read people a lot better in person and it allows for less misunderstandings and connection on a deeper level.

✓ I can read people much better in person, and it leads to fewer misunderstandings and deeper connections.

Use 'much better' rather than 'a lot better' for formality; 'allows for less misunderstandings' is unidiomatic—use 'fewer misunderstandings' (countable) and 'deeper connections' (plural). 'Leads to' fits better than 'allows for' here. This is an error in prepositions and quantifier/adjective use (ID 11 and 14 and 13). Suggestion: use 'fewer' with countable nouns and correct verb/preposition collocations.

× No, not really.

✓ No, not really.

This brief response is fine and appropriate; no grammatical correction needed. Marked as sentence structure check (ID 26) but no change required.

× I'm actually quite a calm and peaceful person and it takes some real issue to make me lose my temper.

✓ I'm actually quite a calm and peaceful person, and it takes a real issue to make me lose my temper.

Use 'a real issue' rather than 'some real issue' for correct article usage. This is an article error (ID 22). Suggestion: use 'a' with singular, countable nouns.

× And my friends try to be supportive and understanding, so we really have not any issues between us.

✓ My friends try to be supportive and understanding, so we really don't have any issues between us.

Word order 'have not any issues' is non-native; use the contracted negative 'don't have any issues' or 'do not have any issues'. Also dropping initial 'And' improves formality. This is incorrect pronoun/negation structure (ID 12 and 26). Suggestion: use standard negative form 'don't have' and keep pronouns consistent.
