This set covers repairing word order, clearing unclear references, cutting redundancy, sorting feedback and redrafting from a comment.
All items are original and invented. Write your own answer first, then open the worked answer. Chinese examples stay in Simplified Chinese with pinyin where it helps.
Easier items
1. Repair the word order: 我吃早餐在家每天早上。
Show answer
Who, when, where, do what, to what: 我每天早上在家吃早餐。 Time and place come before the verb. (Lesson: word order.)
2. Repair: 她唱歌得很好听。
Show answer
When a result complement follows 得, the verb is repeated or the object is moved: 她唱歌唱得很好听 or 她歌唱得很好听。
3. Cut the redundancy: 他非常十分高兴。
Show answer
非常 and 十分 both mean “very”. 他非常高兴。
4. Cut the redundancy and keep the facts: 我亲眼亲自看见了那场比赛。
Show answer
亲眼 and 亲自 repeat. Keep one: 我亲眼看见了那场比赛。
5. Typing, handwriting or content? 我明天在来找你。
Show answer
Typing. 在 should be 再 (zài, “again”). Fix: 我明天再来找你。
Middle items
6. Who is meant? 老师对学生说他要努力。
Show answer
Unclear, because 他 could be the teacher or the student. Repair: 老师对学生说，你要努力 or 老师对学生说，他自己要努力。 Choose the meaning you want. (Lesson: unclear references.)
7. Who caught the ball? 弟弟把球踢给哥哥，接住了。
Show answer
The subject changes without a new subject. Repair: 弟弟把球踢给哥哥，哥哥接住了。
8. A teacher writes beside your paragraph: “理由不充分”. Content, typing or handwriting? What is the first action?
Show answer
Content. Action: add one reason with a concrete example after the claim. For instance, add 因为……例如…… and name a person or place.
9. Comment: “段落之间没有连接”. Write one action.
Show answer
Add a linking word or a transition sentence at the start of each paragraph: 首先, 其次, 另外, 最后. Then check that each link matches the real relationship between ideas.
Harder items
10. Repair fully: 我们大家一起去了在上星期公园玩游戏很开心地。
Show answer
Remove the echo of 大家 and 一起, order the words (who, when, where, do what), then move the feeling into a complement: 上星期我们一起去公园玩游戏，玩得很开心。 Three problems, three repairs.
11. Redraft to answer “要再具体一点”: 我的老师很好。
Show answer
Replace 很好 with a quality and an example. For instance: 我的老师很有耐心，每次我听不懂，她都会换一种方法再讲一遍。
12. A student answers the comment “太笼统” by changing 很多事情 to 许多事情. Judge the revision.
Show answer
The revision changed a synonym but supplied no detail, so the reader’s question “what things?” is still open. A working revision names two activities and adds a time or place.
If you got these wrong
| Error type | Items | Where to revisit |
|---|---|---|
| Word order, misplaced time or place | 1, 2, 10 | Repair an unnatural word order |
| Unclear 他, 它, 这 or silent change of subject | 6, 7 | Clarify a missing subject or reference |

Compare your drafts side by side in the writing revision compare view, plan tone with the audience register and purpose planner, and return to the module overview for the study order.
If you repeat the same error type across several items, short drills with a teacher can break the habit faster than another full set. Our team offers this through online one-to-one Chinese tuition.
