Do you prefer typing or handwriting?
分數: 42.0建議: Be clear and concise: begin with a direct topic sentence stating your preference, then give one or two specific reasons.

Use linking words like “because” or “so” to connect ideas and keep answers within 2–4 sentences.

× Personally I prefer typing today since I used to eat a lot.
✓ Personally I prefer typing nowadays since I used to write a lot.
The sentence uses 'today' and 'used to' incorrectly for the intended meaning. 'Used to' indicates a past habitual action and should pair with a past activity like 'write', not 'eat'. Also 'today' is awkward; 'nowadays' fits a current preference. Suggest replacing 'today' with 'nowadays' and 'eat' with 'write' to reflect handwriting vs typing context.
× I use typing for my working, my studying.
✓ I use typing for my work and my studies.
'Working' and 'studying' are gerunds but sound unnatural here. Use the nouns 'work' and 'studies' with the preposition 'for'. Also 'use typing for' is acceptable but 'I type for my work and studies' is an alternative improvement.
× So I fell live with writing then handwriting.
✓ So I feel more comfortable with typing than with handwriting.
The original sentence has misspellings and poor structure: 'fell live' is incorrect; likely intended 'feel' and a comparison was attempted. Use 'feel more comfortable with X than with Y' to express preference clearly. Maintain present tense and correct vocabulary.
× I feel when I tend to use handwriting it's a bit slow my speed.
✓ I find that when I use handwriting my speed is a bit slow.
The original mixes 'feel' and 'tend to' awkwardly and misorders phrases. Use 'find that' or 'I feel that' and place 'my speed is a bit slow' as the main clause. Keep present simple to state a general fact.
× Uh, yes, I often type on my laptop because I don't even have desktop at my home right now.
✓ Uh, yes, I often type on my laptop because I don't have a desktop at home right now.
Missing article 'a' before 'desktop' (article error) and extraneous 'even' creates awkwardness. Also 'at my home' is unnatural; use 'at home'. This fixes pronoun/possessive and article problems.
× So last stop is my personal devices and yeah, uh, mostly I use it for my study and it's helped me a lot in term of like doing report and research.
✓ So my laptop is my main personal device, and mostly I use it for my studies; it has helped me a lot with writing reports and doing research.
The original has unclear phrase 'last stop is my personal devices' and number/verb agreement issues ('devices' vs 'it'). Rephrase to identify the device and correct noun forms: 'studies', 'reports', 'research'. Use 'helped me a lot with' + noun/gerund forms for clarity.
× As you, as I remember when I was in grad 7, it's the first time that my secondary school offered a computer, uh, class for me.
✓ As I remember, when I was in grade 7, it was the first time my secondary school offered a computer class.
Use past tense 'it was' to refer to a past event. 'Grad 7' should be 'grade 7'. 'Offered a computer class for me' is awkward; 'offered a computer class' is sufficient. Remove filler words and correct tense consistency.
× And I was so excited because it's my first time that, uh, learning how to use laptop.
✓ I was so excited because it was my first time learning how to use a laptop.
Tense inconsistency: refer to past experience with past tense 'was' and 'was my first time'. Also add article 'a' before 'laptop' and remove unnecessary commas and fillers.
× So, uh, I feel that I improve my right, my typing, uh, by training myself during the day, uh, because before I attend the computer class at my secondary school, my parents, my parents started buying me a new.
✓ So I feel that I improved my typing by practicing every day, because before I attended the computer class at my secondary school, my parents started buying me a new laptop.
Multiple issues: tense should be past ('improved', 'attended'), 'right' is incorrect and removed, 'training myself during the day' is better as 'practicing every day', and 'started buying me a new' is incomplete—add 'laptop'. Also correct prepositions and article usage. Remove repeated phrase 'my parents'.
