Do you prefer typing or handwriting?
分數: 78.0建議: Be careful with word choice, grammar and minor spelling errors; keep answers concise and use linking words. Improve accuracy by correcting vocabulary (e.g., "releasing" -> "releasing" is wrong here, use "recording/expressing"; "spill check" -> "spell check") and plural/singular forms ("paragraph" -> "paragraphs"). Use one or two clear supporting details and a linking phrase.

✓ I prefer typing because it's much faster and makes organizing and releasing my ideas easier, especially when I need to write long pieces or share my work online.
No correction required for present participle usage here; 'typing', 'organizing', 'releasing', 'writing', and 'sharing' are correctly used as gerunds or present participles. No error from the given list applies.
× For instance, I can quickly rearrange paragraph and use tools like spill check and track changes, whereas handwriting is slower and more difficult to edit.
✓ For instance, I can quickly rearrange paragraphs and use tools like spell check and track changes, whereas handwriting is slower and more difficult to edit.
The noun 'paragraph' should be plural 'paragraphs' because 'rearrange' refers to moving multiple paragraphs in a text. 'Spill check' is a spelling error; correct term is 'spell check', which is not in the provided list but corrected for accuracy. Suggestion: use plural when referring to multiple items and check spelling of tool names.
× Yes, I type on a laptop keyboard everyday because I use it for both work and study and it's portability let's make me work in different places like home or cafe.
✓ Yes, I type on a laptop keyboard every day because I use it for both work and study, and its portability lets me work in different places like home or a cafe.
Errors addressed: 'everyday' (adjective) should be 'every day' (adverb) to indicate frequency (Grammar problem type 6 present tense/adverb usage; listed under 20 adverb placement and 22 article errors). 'It's portability' is incorrect pronoun and punctuation: use possessive 'its'. 'let's make me' is ungrammatical—correct verb form is 'lets me'. Add comma before 'and' to separate clauses. 'cafe' needs the indefinite article 'a' when speaking generally. Suggestion: use 'every day' for frequency, 'its' for possessive, 'lets me' for making possible, and include articles for singular countable nouns.
× However, for long typing session, I often prefer an external desktop keyboard because it is more comfortable and helps reduce waist strain.
✓ However, for long typing sessions, I often prefer an external desktop keyboard because it is more comfortable and helps reduce wrist strain.
'session' should be plural 'sessions' to match 'long' in a habitual context (singular/plural issue). Also 'waist strain' is likely a word choice error; correct term is 'wrist strain'. Suggestion: use plural for repeated or general occurrences and check for correct body-part vocabulary.
× I learned to type when I was about 10 in school computer class where we practice touch typing with simple exercise and games.
✓ I learned to type when I was about 10 in school computer class where we practiced touch typing with simple exercises and games.
The main clause uses past tense 'learned', so the subordinate clause should also use past tense 'practiced' for consistency. 'practice' should be past 'practiced', and 'exercise' should be plural 'exercises' because multiple activities were likely used. Suggestion: maintain consistent past tense in narratives and pluralize countable nouns when appropriate.
× Since then I have used typing for assignment and online conversation which helped me gradually increase my speed and accuracy.
✓ Since then, I have used typing for assignments and online conversations, which have helped me gradually increase my speed and accuracy.
'assignment' and 'conversation' should be plural 'assignments' and 'conversations' when talking generally (plural/quantifier issue). The relative clause refers to these plural activities, so 'have helped' is appropriate to match plural subject. Also added comma after introductory phrase. Suggestion: use plural for general repeated activities and ensure verb agreement in relative clauses.
× I practice touch typing regularly using online typing programs to boil speed and reduce realise on looking at the keyboard.
✓ I practice touch typing regularly using online typing programs to build speed and reduce reliance on looking at the keyboard.
'boil speed' is incorrect word choice; correct phrase is 'build speed' (improve speed). 'reduce realise on looking' is incorrect; intended phrase is 'reduce reliance on looking' or 'rely less on looking'. This fits verb and word choice issues; use verbs and nouns that collocate correctly. Suggestion: learn common collocations (build speed, reduce reliance) and replace incorrect words.
× I also focus on poster and ingonamics to avoid fatigue which helps maintain consistent accuracy during long typing session.
✓ I also focus on posture and ergonomics to avoid fatigue, which helps maintain consistent accuracy during long typing sessions.
'poster' and 'ingonamics' are misspellings of 'posture' and 'ergonomics' (adjective/noun errors). 'long typing session' should be plural 'sessions' for general situations. Added comma before 'which' to mark nonrestrictive clause. Suggestion: correct spelling of technical terms and use plural for habitual contexts.
× Additionally, I set specific goals such.
✓ Additionally, I set specific goals such as increasing my words-per-minute rate and reducing errors.
The original sentence is incomplete and lacks the object of 'such' (sentence structure/error type 26). Provide examples to complete the sentence. Suggestion: always finish comparative or illustrative phrases like 'such as' with concrete examples.
