打字— Part 1 評分報告

建議: Be more concise and coherent: start with a clear topic sentence, then give one or two specific reasons with a linking word. Avoid filler words (uh, um) and repetition. Also correct minor grammar (plural: reasons; use gerund: giving).

範例: I prefer handwriting for several reasons. Firstly, handwriting gives my notes a personal touch and helps me remember information better. Secondly, it allows me to develop a unique style, such as a distinctive signature, which typing cannot replicate.

建議: Begin with a direct topic sentence and remove hesitations. Use linking words to connect reasons and correct small errors (add articles: a software engineer; phrasing: makes me faster and more efficient). Limit to 2–3 sentences.

範例: Yes, I use a laptop keyboard every day at work. As a software engineer, I need it to debug code and troubleshoot complex issues, which makes me faster and more efficient.

建議: Provide a clear, concise answer with correct tense and fewer fillers. Give one specific detail (age or year) and briefly explain the difficulty, using appropriate grammar (past tense: typed; complete the sentence).

範例: I learned to type about ten years ago when my dad bought me my first MacBook in 2015. At first I struggled because I had never used a computer before, but I improved quickly with regular practice.

建議: Answer with a clear topic sentence and two specific methods, using linking words. Avoid fillers and correct plural/singular mismatches (words). Be specific about exercises and frequency.

範例: I improve my typing mainly through targeted practice and daily use. For example, I do timed typing exercises where I retype paragraphs to build speed and accuracy, and I also type every day at work, which reinforces those skills.

× I prefer handwriting actually for multiple reason.

✓ I prefer handwriting actually for multiple reasons.

The noun 'reason' should be plural because 'multiple' indicates more than one. Use 'reasons' to agree in number with 'multiple'. Suggestion: change singular nouns to plural after quantifiers like 'multiple', 'many', 'several'.

× I think it gives you a style and also typing is way too modern.

✓ I think handwriting gives you a style, and typing is way too modern.

The original mixes subjects and ideas unclearly. Add the subject 'handwriting' for clarity and use a comma before 'and' to join two independent clauses. Ensure parallel structure when comparing two things (handwriting vs typing).

× Umm, people are missing the point.

✓ Umm, people miss the point.

Present simple 'miss' is more natural for general truths or habitual actions. 'Are missing' (present continuous) suggests a temporary situation. Use present simple for general statements.

× Uh, it gives you like also your signature, your style, your personality.

✓ It also shows your signature, your style, and your personality.

Pronoun 'it' is vague; replace 'gives you' with 'shows' for clarity. Remove filler 'like' and reorder 'also' before verb. Use commas to separate items in a list. Maintain parallel verbs and clear pronoun reference.

× I use laptop keyboard every day at work and it's essential because I'm software engineer so I need to debug the code, troubleshoot complex issues and it's helping me like to be more fast and efficient as well.

✓ I use a laptop keyboard every day at work, and it's essential because I'm a software engineer, so I need to debug code, troubleshoot complex issues, and it helps me to be faster and more efficient.

Add the indefinite article 'a' before 'laptop keyboard'. Add 'a' before 'software engineer'. Remove 'the' before 'code' (general activity). Change 'it's helping me like to be more fast' to 'it helps me to be faster' for correct verb tense and comparative adjective. Use commas to separate clauses and items.

× I think it was probably 10 years ago when my dad bought me my first computer.

✓ I think it was probably 10 years ago when my dad bought me my first computer.

This sentence is correct in tense; no change needed. Included here for completeness to indicate no applicable error.

× I had like a, a MacBook, Uh, it was the version 2015 and it was really interesting because it was the first time I actually type on any computer.

✓ I had a MacBook; it was the 2015 version, and it was really interesting because it was the first time I actually typed on any computer.

Remove redundant 'a,' and use 'the 2015 version' for correct article order. Change 'type' to past tense 'typed' to match past timeframe. Use a semicolon or separate clauses for clarity.

× So I had a hard time to.

✓ So I had a hard time, too.

The phrase should be 'had a hard time' followed by an object or 'too' for agreement. 'To' is incorrect here. Use 'too' to mean 'also' and add a comma for flow.

× I improve my typing by doing exercises.

✓ I improve my typing by doing exercises.

This sentence is correct: 'doing' is the correct -ing form after 'by'. Included to indicate no change needed.

× Example uh I had to like write uh a text from scratch or just retype some of the word.

✓ For example, I would write a text from scratch or just retype some of the words.

Begin with 'For example' for natural phrasing. Use conditional or habitual 'I would' or 'I would sometimes' instead of 'I had to like'. Use plural 'words' not singular 'word' when referring to multiple words. Remove filler 'uh' and 'like'.

× And also practicing using it daily at work helped me improve my typing skills.

✓ Also, practicing daily at work helped me improve my typing skills.

Avoid awkward 'practicing using it'; 'practicing daily at work' is clearer. Remove redundant 'and' at start and place comma after 'Also'. Maintain past tense 'helped' to match time frame.
