Part 1
Examiner
What's the weather like where you live?
Candidate
Right now I'm living in United Arab Emirates. The weather here is hot mainly because it consists of deserts and there's just a little trees. But even though it's hot and there's no rain coming, it's still the weather is good and it's nice.
Examiner
Do you prefer cold or hot weather?
Candidate
I preferred cold weather. It's because for me it's good to the skin and it makes me move more better because during cold weather it gives me an opportunity to do exercises and I love jogging in the cold weather.
Examiner
Do you prefer dry or wet weather?
Candidate
I preferred wet weather, most especially when it's raining. It's because I love cooking soups and I love cuddling time watching movies during cold weathers. It makes me more relaxed and it can give an opportunity to sleep better.
Examiner
Are you in the habit of checking the weather forecast? When and how often?
Candidate
No, I'm not checking the weather forecast. Instead I'm just looking outside if it's cloudy or if the sky looks rainy. And then that's the time I will decide if what activities will I go and what activities will I do.
Examiner
What do you think are the effects of climate change in recent years?
Candidate
The climate change is very concerning today. It's because the climate is changing rapidly. For example, here in desert we're in, sometimes there is no rain, then suddenly heavy rain will come.
Examiner
Would you like to visit other cities that have different climates from where you live?
Candidate
Yes, I love to go to different urban areas. Most especially I'm here in desert area wherein I'm looking forward to go into some tropical countries like Thailand or other parts of Asia. I want to immerse myself with different activities in different weather conditions.

× there's just a little trees
✓ there are just a few trees
The phrase 'a little' is used with uncountable nouns, but 'trees' is a countable noun. Therefore, 'a few' should be used instead of 'a little' to correctly quantify countable nouns.
× during cold weathers
✓ during cold weather
The noun 'weather' is uncountable and should not be pluralized. Using 'weathers' is incorrect; the singular form 'weather' is appropriate here.
× No, I'm not checking the weather forecast.
✓ No, I don't check the weather forecast.
The present continuous tense 'I'm not checking' implies an action happening right now, but the question asks about habitual action. The simple present tense 'I don't check' is correct for habitual actions.
× And then that's the time I will decide if what activities will I go and what activities will I do.
✓ And then that's the time I will decide which activities I will go to and which activities I will do.
The original sentence has incorrect word order and unclear phrasing. The corrected sentence uses proper question word order and clarifies the activities to be chosen.
× here in desert we're in
✓ here in the desert where we are
The phrase 'here in desert we're in' is awkward and missing the definite article 'the' before 'desert'. Also, 'where we are' is clearer than 'we're in' at the end.
× sometimes there is no rain, then suddenly heavy rain will come.
✓ sometimes there is no rain, then suddenly heavy rain comes.
The sentence describes habitual or repeated events, so the simple present tense 'comes' is more appropriate than the future tense 'will come'.
× I'm here in desert area wherein I'm looking forward to go into some tropical countries
✓ I'm here in a desert area and I'm looking forward to going to some tropical countries
The phrase 'here in desert area' needs the article 'a' before 'desert area'. Also, 'wherein' is formal and awkward here; 'and' is better. 'Looking forward to' should be followed by a gerund ('going'), and 'go into' should be 'going to' for countries.
