Điểm: 62.0Gợi ý: 回答は内容が伝わりますが、冗長なフレーズや文法の誤りがあり、流暢さと正確さを改善する必要があります。まず、話の主題(写真を撮ること)を冒頭で明確に述べ、余分な情報(携帯を忘れた話)は省くか簡潔に述べます。次に、具体的な詳細(どんな被写体を撮るか、いつ・どのように撮るか)をリンクワード(for example, because, so)で結び、文法的に正しい時制と数の一致(my new phone / my new phones)を使ってください。また、つなぎの「uh」や躊躇語を減らし、文は最大5文に収めてください。
Ví dụ: Yes. I enjoy taking pictures of different views because photography helps me notice small details. For example, when I walk in Japan I often photograph cherry blossoms in spring, focusing on close-ups and wide shots. I prefer natural light and try to capture scenes early in the morning for softer colors. Overall, I take photos to remember places and share them with friends.
Do you prefer views in urban areas or rural areas?
Điểm: 68.0Gợi ý: 答えは明確で理由も述べられていますが、冗長な言い回しと繰り返しが見られます。より自然にするには、重複を避けて一つの主な理由を短く述べ、支持する具体例(街角のスナップや市場の写真など)をリンクワードでつなげてください。語法(in my personal perspectiveは冗長、becauseの連続は避ける)と流暢さ(uhを減らす)を改善しましょう。
Ví dụ: I prefer urban views because I enjoy the energy and variety of people and activities. For instance, I like photographing street markets and café terraces where there are interesting interactions. Also, city architecture provides both modern and historical backdrops, which gives me more creative options.
Do you prefer views in your own country or in other countries?
Điểm: 60.0Gợi ý: 回答の意図は伝わりますが、文法(Japan's veils? / Japan have)は誤りがあり、発音や語彙選択も不適切です。最初に明確な主張を置き、その後に具体的な理由(清潔さ、景観、都市計画など)を2つまで挙げてリンクワードで結びます。語彙は“views”や“cities are cleaner”など正しい単語を使い、文法(Japan has / cleaner air)を修正してください。流暢さのために躊躇語は減らし、文を3〜4文に整えましょう。
Ví dụ: I prefer views in Japan at the moment because I live here and I appreciate the clean streets and well-maintained parks. For example, Japanese cities often have tidy sidewalks and organized public gardens, which make the scenery pleasant. That said, I still miss some landscapes from China, like wide rivers and traditional rural villages.
× Yeah, I forgot my new phone a little bit time ago, and my new phones have a very great camera, so I would like to use the camera to take a lot of beautiful pictures along the road.
✓ Yeah, I forgot my new phone a little while ago, and my new phone has a great camera, so I wanted to use the camera to take a lot of beautiful pictures along the road.
'A little bit time ago' is ungrammatical; use 'a little while ago' for a short time in the past. 'Forgot' is correct past tense, but the following clause should keep consistent reference to a single phone: 'my new phones' is plural and inconsistent with 'my new phone'; change to singular 'my new phone'. 'Have' should be 'has' to agree with singular subject (subject-verb agreement). 'Very great' is awkward; use 'great' or 'very good'. 'Would like to use' indicates willingness but past context prefers 'wanted to use' to match 'forgot' (past timeline). Suggestions: use consistent singular/plural nouns, maintain subject-verb agreement, choose idiomatic time expressions, and keep tense consistency across clauses.
× For example, I take the, uh, Sakura pictures in Japan.
✓ For example, I take Sakura pictures in Japan.
The phrase 'the, uh, Sakura pictures' misuses the definite article and has an unnecessary 'the' and filler; when speaking generally about photos of cherry blossoms, no article is needed: 'Sakura pictures' or 'pictures of Sakura'. Suggestion: remove unnecessary articles and hesitations and use 'pictures of Sakura' if you want a clearer structure.
× Well, in my personal perspective, I prefer views in urban areas because I would love to live in urban areas because there's more people and, uh, I don't feel alone.
✓ Well, from my personal perspective, I prefer views in urban areas because I would love to live there; there are more people and I don't feel alone.
'In my personal perspective' is non-idiomatic; say 'from my personal perspective'. Repeating 'in urban areas' is redundant; replace second phrase with pronoun 'there'. 'There's more people' is incorrect because 'there's' contracts 'there is' which does not agree with plural 'people'; use 'there are more people'. Also remove filler 'uh'. Suggestion: use idiomatic prepositional phrases, avoid repetition by using pronouns, and ensure verb agreement after 'there' constructions.
× So I think the views in urban areas, I can take the pictures of people more, not only the scenes.
✓ So I think that in urban areas I can take more pictures of people, not just of scenes.
'I can take the pictures of people more' is awkward word order and uses 'the' unnecessarily. Use 'take more pictures of people' to show frequency/quantity. 'Not only the scenes' should be 'not just of scenes' or 'not just scenes'. Suggestion: place quantifier 'more' before 'pictures', remove unnecessary definite articles, and use parallel structure for contrast.
× Well I come from China but I currently live in Japan so uh, in my opinion I love Japan's uh, veils more than my country's because Japan have a a better cleaner city and a cleaner air for example.
✓ Well I come from China but I currently live in Japan, so in my opinion I love Japan's views more than my country's because Japan has cleaner cities and cleaner air, for example.
Multiple issues: 'veils' is a mispronunciation/misspelling of 'views'; correct to 'views'. 'Japan have' is wrong; 'Japan' as a singular country takes 'has' (subject-verb agreement). 'a a better cleaner city' is ungrammatical; use plural 'cleaner cities' or 'a cleaner city' and avoid stacking comparative adjectives incorrectly—use 'cleaner' alone or 'much cleaner'. 'a cleaner air' is incorrect article use; 'cleaner air' (uncountable) needs no article. Suggestion: correct vocabulary, use proper subject-verb agreement, choose appropriate singular/plural forms, and order adjectives properly (avoid doubling articles).
× So the view is much better.
✓ So the views there are much better.
The original sentence 'So the view is much better' is understandable but vague and slightly disconnected. Specify 'the views there' or 'the view in Japan' to clarify the comparison and match plural 'views' used earlier. Maintain consistent reference to location. Suggestion: make the subject explicit and consistent with previous sentences to avoid ambiguity.
