Are you preparing TOPIK test?
As you know well, you should practice [reading], [listening] and [writing] to prepare for the TOPIK II.
So I'd like to introduce in particular how I can get help or any way to prepare for [writing] of TOPIK II.

You have to prepare a total of 4 TOPIK II questions.

The quesions are as follows.
Number 51 is writing Practical sentences.
Number 52 is writing Descriptive sentences.
Number 53 is writing a P Describing Data.
Number 54 is writing on a Given topic.
You should prepare and practice these questions types.

The first type of question I will introduce is number 51.
No. 51 contains writing contents such as invitations, notices, and text messages.
You should write a sentence into the ( blank ) in the given writing composed of 4 to 8 sentences.
It is recommended to use words and grammar above the intermediate level.
Considering the time, number 51 should be completed in 5 minutes.

Let's take a look at some strategies for writing answers faster and more accurately now.
The process for No. 51 is as follows.
Strategy 1. Skimming
Skim through the question to the end to find the purpose of the writing.

Strategy 2. Remembering the Formality of Writing
Check the sentence final endings and usage of the casual/formal speech.

Strategy 3. Guessing
Understand the context from the preceding and followig sentences and guess what to write for the answer.

Strategy 4. Correcting Errors
Finally, check it there are any mistakes such as spelling errors or the wrong usage of postpositions and modify them.

You should also check your frequently used grammar and expressions.

小龙的饺子冒险

分享看剧感受！
朋友们你们好！今天的零食叫做“星期三”。我们来一起边吃边学吧！ 
 ”星期三“是一个女孩的名字。这个小女孩平时全身只穿黑色衣服。而她的表情总是给出一个难以与人相处的印象。她很喜欢侦探推理和那些古怪的东西。

 首先要说的是，我真的被“星期三”的性格吸引了。她活在自己的世界里，不在乎任何人的评价，只有我可以定义自己。这个女孩不仅个性特殊还很有想法，是不是？

说实话，作为一个敏感过度在意他人感受的我，其实是非常累的，所以真的对“星期三”着迷。尤其看到她跳舞那段。看上去有那种舞池中我是主角，欢迎来到我世界的感觉。特别有风格！ 
 然后也不能不提到另外一个很有趣的人物。一直陪着“星期三”是一个叫“小东西”。我十分喜欢“小东西”！那只手是我本剧最爱的设定。你们说，谁不想拥有一只骄傲敏感无所不能的小挂件呢？ 
 “星期三” 这部悬疑的美剧，你看了吗？你喜欢的是什么人物呢？快来告诉我吧！
