1. The best word to use here is the verb "experienced" which is defined as - to encounter or undergo (an
event or occurrence).
2. "Had stolen" is in the past perfect tense. The past perfect tense indicates that an action was
completed (finished or "perfected") at some point in the past before something else happened. This
tense is formed with the past tense form of "to have" (HAD) plus the past participle of the verb (which

know the website. It is very popular! Before I called the card company, I thought I had to

the investigation. Although it will take 2 months to give my money back, I am a little
relieved.

the people who had the same experience as me on the Internet. One of them wrote that we
don't pay accommodation fee through Booking.com. but we give our card deta ils to
Booking.com and they tell hotels the details. That means both the website and the hotel
can get our card information, so the risks of the information leak get double.

because they are bound to learn its recipe while going to a camp or home economics
classes.
1. You are talking about what's currently in their bowl, so you could say - ''a bowl of...''.
2. You could also say - ''A Japanese person'' however, it best to use ''people'' when talking about people
in general.
3. When something is certain or extremely likely to happen, you can also use the adjective ''bound''.
4. Spelling mistake.

I see. I believe Japanese curry is very famous. It is different from Indian curry though,
right? I am sure you don't use as many spices as used in the Indian version.

powder which are sold in Japan and they are all arranged to be perfect for Japanese. I
think most of them are less spicy than that of real india in order to eat easily.

1. Again, you are talking about more ingredients. You should use the plural form.
2. You need an adjective here, not an adverb.
3. When just saying ''singles'', it sounds a bit confusing. Therefore, you could say it as corrected or -
''people who live alone''.
4. Add an article in front of singular countable nouns.

Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? Computerized devices are an
essential part of modern life. Use specific reasons and examples to support your answer.
#2
I agree with the statement says that computerized devices are an essential part of modern
life. I have two reasons to support my idea.
First, along with the modernized society, the world become more globalized. When you
meet many new people in different places, computerized devices can connect yourself with
any other person at any time. For instance, I have friends in more than 10 countries,
everyday we are living different lives, in the cities where have big time difference.
However, thanks to those devices, I can keep in touch with them whenever I want, and
through video call, I can feel like they are just next to me. This makes me very happy, and
is de finely spreading my world.
Second, we can get a lot of information through computerized devices. In this modern
society, there are full of information, and when you do not have any idea of how t o go
somewhere or what to do about something, you can just search on those devices, and get
the answer you want. When I was doing a job hunting, I gathered plenty of information
about the companies, application process, and possible questions that the inte rviewer may
ask. In that way, I was able to prepare myself for the job interview, and got the request for
the one I wanted to enter. On the other hand, of course there are some wrong information
and if you do not use those devices carefully, you may put yo urself in danger, however, I
believe that there are much more benefits to use the devices.
For those reasons, I agree the in this modern life, computerized devices are important.

1. The pronoun 'that' which is used to introduce additional information about the previous clause should,
in this context, go before the verb 'says', we could add additional 'that' after 'says' but it is not
necessary.
2. Subjects and verbs must agree with one another in number and form (singular or plural). So, if a
subject is singular, its verb must also be singular; if a subject is plural, its verb must also be plural.
Singular verbs are formed by adding 's' in the end. In this case the subject 'world' is singular, and since
this sentence seem to be written in the simple present tense, the verb must be singular too.
Alternatively, we could use the past tense 'became' but not the past participle 'b ecome'
3. 'Everyday' is an adjective we use to describe something that’s seen or used every day. It means
“ordinary” or “typical.” (Eating breakfast is my everyday routine).
'Every day' is a phrase that simply means “each day.” (I eat breakfast every day). In your case we need
'every day'.
4. 'Where' cannot be followed by the basic form of a verb here, we could say 'where big time difference
exist', if we want to use 'have' we need the pronoun 'that'.
5. 'Call' is a singular countable noun, so we need an article here.
6. 'De finely' doesn't seem to fit here, I assume you wanted to use 'definitely'.
7. If you are referring to 'devices' we should use 'they'. If you are referring to 'society', then we should
use 'there is a lot information'.

1. This part of the sentence seem to be providing additional information about 'companies', this is called
a that-clause so we need the pronoun 'that' to form it.
2. 'High' is an adjective, 'competitive' is also an adjective. We should not use one adjective to modify
another, we need an adverb for that, so we should use 'highly'.
3. Same as the previous paragraph, correction number 2. 'Question' is a singular subject, so we should
use the appropriate form of the verb 'asks'.

I think the bad sides are lack of communication, cause physical and mental illness, and
son on. It is true that those technologies are very convenient and we cannot live without
them, however sometimes we tend to rely on them too much.
When we meet people, we still focusing on our smartphone, when we at home we keep
watching TV or PC, less and less time to look into people’s eyes and talk with them. Also,
long time of using those devices have caused many problem to people’s health. Anything

younger. Also, you need to insert the article 'a/an' before each 'sister' because 'sister' is a count noun.
2. Use the noun form here 'willful + ness' = willfulness

Does your father actually work abroad or in some remote area of Japan?
Does this mean that your mother has her own cooking show?

My father is working in remote area of Japan. I think he has never worked abroad. Not that

the way, my older sister works in a hospital as a physical therapist. She is so smart that
she graduated her university without paying at all.

that meaning! She just appears on TV programs to explain foods or something

1. 'area' is a count noun so insert the article 'a' before 'remote area'.
2. Use the noun form, not the verb here: 'Not that meaning!' or you could say 'I don't mean that!'
3. Because 'program' is a count noun you could say either 'on TV programs' or 'on a TV program'.
4. The way we say this is: 'once every two months'. You could say 'twice every month' or 'three times
every year'. 'Every' comes in the middle.
5. After the verb 'graduate' we use the preposition ' from'

understand Korean, and speak a little bit. I'm pride of her because she just does what she
likes even if my mom tells her off. Besides, she is not just selfish girl but she is learning
what she likes by herself at the age of fifteen. When I was her age, I was just doing as my

1. She is the subject, so you need to use 'does' not 'do' here.
2. The noun is 'pride', the adjective is 'proud'. You could say 'I have pride in my sister', but more
commonly we would say 'I am proud of my sister.'
3. 'girl' is a count noun, so insert the article 'a'
4. After the verb 'tell' we need to put an object: she told me, I t old her, they told him, etc.

3. You can use the pronoun ''it'' to refer to previously mentioned ''opinion''.

Hello, this is a message for Mary Atkinson. This is Sandra Lee from Future Consulting
Company returning your call. I've got your message regarding the fact a significant number
of native teachers leave at mid contract to go back their home countries or work at the
competitors and it hard to manage the classes.
Well, you say that this isn't caused by the terms and condition.
After considering the situation, I came up with a solution.
I would like to suggest that you have an interview with all the native teachers. I think there
is something necessary besides the terms and condition. it is more stressf ul to work in a
foreign country than we suppose. I recommend you to talk to and ask them if they have
any problem.
If you want to ask me more, feel free to call me again. Bye.

Apparently, there are two points where the boys may feel fear to go through, because
those points are filled with water completely so they need to dive into the water. The
rescue team is now preparing the full-faced masks for them so that the boys can dive into
the water without feeling any worrying. It is expected the bad weather in a wee k, so the
immediate rescue operation is crutial. Food and water were delivered by the rescue team

Even if no warnings have been issued, lands are satuated, so we must pay full at tention to
the rain, they are reporting.
natural expression
No, I have never experienced such a disaster.
Japan has been suffering a downpour for the past couple of days. The cold front is sitting
over the Kyushu, Shikoku, and Chugoku areas. These are the northwestern part of Japan.
The meteorological agency has been issuing the warnings. The landslides and flooded
water have been continuously reported and the footages aired collapsed houses, cars
dipped completely into the water, collapsed banks and people who are waiting for the
rescue. Even if no warning has been issued, lands are saturated, so we must pay full
attention to the rain; that's what they are reporting.
1. The adverb was transferred before the word to sound natural.

2. We could also use this alternatively.
3. Since there are more than one, this should be plura l.
4. This is the correct spelling of the present tense form.
5. These words should be singular since the adverb is singular.
6. I think this is the word you're referring to here.
7. We could add this here to be clearer.

Wow, that sounds serious. Do you live close to these areas? Is this normal for this part of

I live in Tokyo, which is the east part of Japan, so the weather here is fine. The climate has
been strange these days. We hadn't had those kinds of severe disasters before, but
catastrophes, such as downpours, inundation, landslides, and even hurricanes are often
occuring here.
By the way, I heard about the news about the Thai boys this morning. Apparently, one of
the rescuer have died of luck of oxigen while he was in the water inside of the cave. This
indicates that the evacuation would be very strenuous. Full -faced masks maybe won't
work.

Oh, that is horrible. I am so sorry to hear that. Are they planning some other way to rescue
them?.
#10
We haven't had further news yet. Some experts' opinions were to give up using the masks
and stick to pumping out all the water inside of the cave or to dig a long hole from the safer
side of the area and rescue them through the hole. One of the problems is that the weather
around the area will be worsen again in a couple of days. Japanese experts will be able to

being verbs are used to indicate that one thing is another, eg., "thi s cat is an animal", which is also
correct because a cat is an animal.
---> a chicken is not a taste, but can have it
6. #1
7. use pronouns to refer back to full nouns previously mentioned, no full noun was previously mentioned
8. Prepositions are used to connect nouns and show their relationship in sentences unless a verb is
being used. If it is not used, the meaning of the sentence may very likely be incorrect, eg., the plane is

1. only capitalise proper nouns (specific names of things, people, or places which are only owned by
that individual noun and nothing else)
A proper noun is the name used for an individual person, place, or organization, spelled with an initial
capital letter, e.g., Jane, London, and Oxfam
2. nouns can't make complete sentences unless they are responding to questions.,
eg., A: "Who is he?"

noodles. In fall, we eat "YAKIIMO" which is something like a grilled potato. In winter, we
eat "NABE" which is something like soup with a lot of meat and vegetables.
1. word check: Fresh and Flesh are two different words.

2. 3. 5. because this relates to a subject with a specific reference or name.
4. because this is a single example.
6. this is what you meant to say, 'a lot of' is more suitable in a positive sentence.

That sounds very enticing. I haven't heard of Somen. Is that a cold noodle? Does it have a
soup, or is it dry?
#4
Somen is a cold noodle. Also, it has a
cold soup. The eating manner of it is that you soak noodles into a cold soup. That's why
somen is something like a dry noodle unlike "RAMEN."
natural expression
Somen is a cold noodle with cold soup. We eat it by soaking thenoodles in the cold soup.
That's why somen is something like a dry noodle unlike "RAMEN."
1. because you mean it is served with cold soup.

2. because you meant to tell us HOW or the WAY to eat Somen.

#8
Really. I'd like to know whether sweet potato is Japanese food or not. By the way, in
summer, Japanese people eat crashed ice with syrup. It is called "KAKIGORI." The recipe
of it is so simple. You only pour your favorite syrup onto crashed ice, but it's good and I
love it.

summer, Japanese people eat shaved ice with syrup. It is called "KAKIGORI." The

1. because this is a general reference and question about all sweet potatoes, not just one.
2. 5. I believe you meant to spell "Crushed" but this kind of dessert is popularly known as "Shaved Ice".

Can you tell me about your company's benefits program?

#2
Yes, we have many kinds of welfare, health, housing and entertainment. At first, I will tell
you about the health.
We support your expense when you have a medical check. If the cost is over 35,000yen,
we will provide it up t 35,000yen once a year. And we provide a free dental check once a
year. And we will provide a chance of vaccination. If your family have the vaccination, we
support the cost until 3,000 yen/person.
natural expression

will tell you about the health benefits. We support your expense when you have a medical
check. If the cost is over 35,000yen, we will provide it up t 35,000yen once a year. And we
provide a free dental check once a year. And we will provide a chance ofvaccination. If
your family have the vaccination, we support the cost until 3,000 yen/person.
1. If you add "benefits" to this sentence, it indicates that there are many general benefits. If you don't
add "benefits," the listener will think that you have many types of welfare benefits, many types of
housing benefits, many types of entertai nment benefits, and so on. I think this correction is more
accurate for what you are trying to say. You could also change it to say, "We have many kinds of
benefits, including welfare, health, housing and entertainment benefits."
2. "At first" is a prepositional phrase that indicates "at the beginning." It usually comes before a
sentence explaining how things will be different at the beginning, and different at the end. For example,
"At first, I was nervous to speak English. But after many years of practice , I am more comfortable." You
are not making a contrast or showing a difference between two periods of time. So you can simply say,
"First, I will tell you about.."
3. To be more specific and clear, we will add the word "benefits" again here.
4. I would suggest using future tense here: "We will support..." and also changing "support" to "cover."
This is a commonly used noun for insurance benefits. So, your new sentence would read: "We will cover
your expense.."
5. "A medical check" is unclear in meaning to me. You could change the wording, such as: "a doctor's
visit" or "any medical needs." It's important to be specific in these situations, because insurance can
cover some medical needs but not others.
6. Spelling mistake. "To."
7. You shouldn't start sentences with "and." It's a very informal way of speaking and writing. To sound
more professional, you can change "and" to "also."
8.. It's unclear what "a chance of" vaccination means. Consider rewording this to, "Also, we will provide
any necessary vaccination."
9. This can be confusing: even though a family is multiple people, it's a singular noun. So, "family"
should be treated like a he/she/it. Therefore, "If your family needs/has the vaccination, we ...."
Hide explanation
#3
That sounds good. What kinds of vaccination do you cover? If I don't use up the
30,000yen, will it be carried over to the next year?
#4
We can cover the only influenza vaccination. If you don't use up the 35,000 yen for a
medical check, you can't carry over it.
Regarding the housing, we support the rent up to 30,000 yen.
If you move to other city by a business reason, we support the cost of house moving
expense and we also support about 80 % of the rent.
natural expression

Regarding the housing, we support the rent up to 30,000 yen.
If you move to other city by a business reason, we support the cost of house moving
expense and we also support about 80 % of the rent.
1. This is a word order error: "carry it over."

2. A prepositional error: "by" should be "for." You are explaining a cause/a reason, so please use "for."
In the rest of the phrase, your grammar makes sense. A more professional sounding way to say this is,
"a business-related reason."
3. You already say "cost," so writing "expense" is redundant (repeating yourself). When people move,
they might move into an apartment or house or condo. Therefore, people usually say "moving" instead of
specifically "house moving." If we rewrote your original sentence, we could say: "we support the cost of
moving and we also.."
Hide explanation
#5
Ok, I understand. That sounds fair. Are there any limitations to the housing, besides the
cost of the rent?
#6
We support only the rent. There is a limitation of the rent. It is decided depend on the area.
Example, it is 110,000 yen in Tokyo area.
About the entertainment, you can use the Relo Club. When you stay a hotel, you can stay
there with the discount price.

Example, it is 110,000 yen in Tokyo area.
About the entertainment, you can use the Relo Club. When you stay ahotel, you can stay
there with the discount price.
1. You can't have a basic simple verb (known as i nfinitive) in this place. You have two options to fix this.
Your first option is this: "It is decided depending on.." OR your second option: "It depends on the area."
2. Missing a preposition. You are talking about a place, so we can use "at."
3. I would make a couple changes. First, I would use the preposition "at" instead of "with" because you
are indicating staying at a place. Second, I changed your article to the indefinite article because maybe
there isn't only one discount price available. If you kee p the original (the discount price), it tells the
listener that there is only one discount price for everyone. My correction shows that there are different
discount prices, and more than one option. So, my rewrite would be: "You can stay there at a discoun ted
price."

Of course, Relo club is a company that provide many kinds of benefits and my company

1. Subject-verb agreement: Relo Club is a company that provides...

2. Your first sentence is a "run-on sentence," or a sentence that goes on too long. Let's break it up into
smaller pieces: "Relo Club is a company that provides many kinds of benefits. My company has a
contract with Relo Club. Every employee can use it." You can s ee in my correction, I fixed a) your verb
tense from simple past (contracted) to simple present (has a contract) because I'm describing a fact
about the company/club that was true in past present and future.
3. I also changed "employee" to singular, becau se the word "every" can only be used with singular
nouns.
4. Another subject-verb agreement error: "It provides"
5 I would not use a definite article here because we only use definite articles when talking about specific
things. You are talking generally a bout discounted tickets, and not any one specific ticket. So we can
keep it general: "It provides discounted tickets..."
6. A prepositional error. The tickets allow you to do something, so we can use "for." Another example of
this preposition is: "I have a spoon for eating." The spoon allows me to eat.
7. "A special favor" is unclear in meaning. Perhaps you mean, "you can receive a special discount" or
"you can receive a special prize."
8. The meaning of "excepting that" is unclear. Perhaps you mean, "Not o nly that, but you can also get.."
9. "Favors" needs to be plural since you say "many kinds."

The bonuses for non-managers are 3 times, March, June and December. The bonuses for

And if you work overtime, you will be paid additional money.
natural expression
The bonuses for non-managers are 3 times, March, June and December. The bonuses
for manager are in March.
And if you work overtime, you will be paid additional money.
1. A more accurate verb would be something like" The bonuses for non-managerial staff are paid three
times in a year.."
2. If there is only one manager, you would say "the manager." If there are multiple managers, you
should pluralize this noun.
3. Avoid starting sentences with "and" in formal cont exts. Instead, use "Also" or "In addition."
4. This word is not incorrect. Another more formal option could be, "you will be paid additional income"
or "you will earn additional wages."

According to the announcement, building three more parking facilities, parking fee for one
semester will be increased to $225. The man is in favor of this idea.
Since he needs to work in the morning time to support himself, he basically cannot find
parking space when he gets to the university after 9am. He is thinking it will help this
situation.
Also, even $75 increasing, he is thinking it would be fair. Because, g overnment bonds and

1. You are referring to a specific fee, so you need the definite article.
2. You need to put an indefinite article in front of most countable singular nouns.
3. You aren't describing something he is currently spending his time thinking about, you are describing
his opinion, so you should use the Simple form.

In my view, staff members don't need to pay for the parking fee because they are on the

believe it will prevent the parking fee from increasing 1.5 times.
