Reading— Part 1 채점 보고서

제안: Be more concise and coherent: start with a clear topic sentence stating your current attitude, then give one brief supporting detail about past habits and one specific example. Reduce fillers (umm) and correct basic grammar (e.g., "I usually read books before bed"). Aim for 2–4 sentences and use linking words like "but" or "however" correctly.

예시: I don't read much nowadays, but I loved reading when I was younger. For example, I used to read fairy tales and traditional stories every night before bed because they were exciting and helped me sleep.

제안: Improve fluency and accuracy: remove hesitations and tighten grammar (e.g., "because it is convenient to read anywhere, anytime"). Use one linking phrase to expand (e.g., "for example") and give a specific situation where screen reading helps. Keep it within 2–3 sentences.

예시: I prefer reading on a screen because it is convenient to access books anywhere and anytime. For example, I can read on my phone while commuting, which is much more practical than carrying physical books.

제안: Clarify meaning and correct vocabulary: avoid unclear words like "scheming"; use "scan" or "skim" correctly. Use correct tense and articles, and give one clear contrasting example: when you read carefully (academic articles) versus when you skim (news/social media). Limit to 2–4 sentences and add a linking word like "for example".

예시: I read carefully when the material is important, such as academic journals or articles for my art portfolio. For example, two months ago I read several social studies articles in detail to prepare my portfolio, but I usually skim news websites when I only need a quick overview.

제안: Be specific and correct word choice: say "I prefer scanning because..." and explain clearly what you gain (e.g., broad overview, saves time). Remove unintelligible phrases and reduce repetition. Provide one concise reason and one specific example to support your preference.

예시: I usually prefer scanning because it gives me a quick overview of many topics and saves time. For instance, when I check newsletters or articles online, I skim the headlines and first paragraphs to decide which ones are worth reading in detail.

× Not really and I'm not a big fan of reading.

✓ Not really; I'm not a big fan of reading.

Use a semicolon or conjunction to connect two independent clauses. The original used 'and' awkwardly after 'Not really'. Improve fluency by joining appropriately.

× However, when I was younger I used to read a lot of books.

✓ However, when I was younger I used to read a lot of books.

Sentence is correct; 'used to' appropriately expresses past habitual action. No change needed.

× I really enjoy fairy tales and traditional stories because it was really fun to read and I usually read book before night.

✓ I really enjoyed fairy tales and traditional stories because they were really fun to read, and I usually read books before bed.

Tense consistency: 'when I was younger' requires past tense 'enjoyed' and 'were'. Number agreement: 'book' should be plural 'books'. Preposition and noun choice: use 'before bed' rather than 'before night'.

× Well, I prefer reading online.

✓ Well, I prefer reading online.

This sentence is grammatically correct and fits the present habitual preference; no change needed.

× This is merely because umm, it is really convenient to read when it anywhere and anytime.

✓ This is mainly because it is really convenient to read anywhere and at any time.

Replace 'merely' with 'mainly' for intended meaning. Remove extra filler 'umm'. Prepositions and adverbs: use 'anywhere' and the phrase 'at any time' for correct idiomatic English; remove incorrect 'when it' fragment.

× And I can read books while traveling somewhere, so I think it's more comfortable than physical.

✓ I can read books while traveling, so I think it's more comfortable than reading physical books.

Unnecessary 'somewhere' removed. Compare like with like: 'more comfortable than reading physical books' clarifies the comparison. 'Physical' alone is an adjective and needs a noun.

× Well, I usually umm scheming books when I need to read umm academic journal.

✓ Well, I usually skim books when I need to read academic journals.

Correct verb choice: 'skimming' was intended but 'skim' as a verb fits 'usually' with simple present. Remove filler 'umm'. Pluralize 'academic journals' for general reference. 'Scheming' is incorrect word choice.

× Well, two months ago when I need to prepare my art portfolio, I need to read social articles.

✓ Well, two months ago when I needed to prepare my art portfolio, I had to read social articles.

Time marker 'two months ago' requires past tense: change 'need' to 'needed' and 'need to read' to 'had to read' for correct past obligation.

× At the time I read really carefully.

✓ At that time I read very carefully.

Use 'that time' for reference to a past moment and 'very' is a better adverb than 'really' for formal clarity; otherwise sentence is fine.

× Well, I normally prefer scanning this is mail because umm I can get a lot of information and a wide range of field of Zhang lus easily and comfortably and it saves my time and energy because reading books is really diff really.

✓ Well, I normally prefer scanning emails because I can get a lot of information from a wide range of fields easily and comfortably, and it saves my time and energy because reading books is really difficult.

Multiple issues fixed: 'scanning this is mail' corrected to 'scanning emails'. Removed filler 'umm'. Reworded 'a wide range of field of Zhang lus' to 'a wide range of fields'. Adverb placement adjusted for fluency. 'diff really' corrected to 'difficult'. Ensure parallel structure and clarity.
