Keys— Part 1 채점 보고서

제안: Clarify vocabulary and give a concise, directly relevant response. Avoid mistakes (e.g., ‘kids’ vs ‘keys’) and redundant wording. Begin with a clear topic sentence, then briefly explain why and give one specific detail. Use linking words (for example, because, so) and keep it within 2–3 sentences.

예시: No, I don't usually carry many keys. In Korea, most homes and offices use digital locks or passcodes, so physical keys are rarely necessary.

제안: Start with a direct answer, then add one clear example with chronological linking words (e.g., last year, when). Be concise and avoid repeating details. Provide a brief outcome or consequence to make the story complete.

예시: No, I've never lost my keys. However, last year a friend of mine lost her key while we were staying in a rented house in Sydney, which caused us to call the host and pay for a replacement lock.

제안: Respond directly then explain briefly with a specific reason and a linking word. Avoid repeating an earlier point word-for-word; instead, rephrase. Keep it to one or two sentences and use precise vocabulary (e.g., ‘digital locks’ or ‘keypad’).

예시: No, I rarely lock myself out because most apartments in Korea have digital locks with passcodes, so I don't need to carry physical keys.

제안: Give a direct opinion and support it with a specific reason and a brief example. Use linking words (for example, because, for instance) and correct grammar (e.g., plural ‘neighbours’, verb forms). Avoid vague phrases like ‘I just say yes’.

예시: Yes, I think it can be a good idea because trustworthy neighbours can help in emergencies. For instance, when I was young my neighbours looked after my flat and collected parcels when I was away.

× No, I don't bring kids when I go out because kids are not common things in Korea.

✓ No, I don't bring keys when I go out because keys are not common in Korea.

The student used 'kids' instead of 'keys' (wrong lexical item/pronoun-like word). This is a word choice error causing incorrect meaning. Replace 'kids' with 'keys' and simplify 'are not common things' to 'are not common' for natural English.

× We you we usually use password instead of using key so it is not required.

✓ We usually use passwords instead of keys, so they are not required.

The sentence has extra words ('We you we') and incorrect preposition/structure. Use 'instead of' correctly with plural nouns: 'passwords instead of keys'. Also match plurality: 'they are not required.' Remove redundant words.

× No I haven't but I saw my friend losing her key last year.

✓ No, I haven't, but I saw my friend lose her key last year.

After 'saw' the bare infinitive (see someone do something) is preferred for a completed action: 'saw my friend lose.' Using the '-ing' form suggests an ongoing action; choose the bare infinitive for a single observed event.

× We went to Sydney, Australia to travel and we stayed in local house for accommodation and she lost her key.

✓ We went to Sydney, Australia to travel, and we stayed in a local house for accommodation, and she lost her key.

The phrase needs the indefinite article 'a' before 'local house' and commas for clarity. 'Stayed in a local house' is the correct prepositional phrase. Also consider simplifying 'for accommodation' to 'for accommodation' is acceptable but 'for accommodation' is slightly redundant; 'stayed in a local house' suffices.

× No, as I said, I don't usually use keys and in Korea we open and close the door with digital password so it doesn't happen.

✓ No, as I said, I don't usually use keys, and in Korea we open and close doors with a digital password, so that doesn't happen.

Use plural 'doors' for general statements and add the article 'a' before 'digital password.' Also use 'that doesn't happen' to refer back to forgetting keys; this improves reference clarity.

× I just say yes because I think neighbor is enough to trust.

✓ I would say yes because I think a neighbor is trustworthy enough.

Use conditional 'would say' for opinions in hypothetical questions. Add the indefinite article 'a' before 'neighbor' and use 'trustworthy' (adjective) with 'enough' after it for natural word order.

× When I was young for example, I interacted with my neighbors a lot and we help each other so.

✓ When I was young, for example, I interacted with my neighbors a lot and we helped each other.

Maintain past tense throughout the sentence: 'interacted' and 'helped' (not 'help'). Remove the trailing 'so' which is unnecessary. Use commas for parenthetical phrase 'for example.'
