Score: 58.0Suggestion: Make the opinion clear and support it with a concise, specific reason. Use correct subject–verb agreement and avoid filler words like 'uh'. Provide one brief example or observation to strengthen the answer.

× No, I prefer to read books at my home.
✓ No, I prefer to read books at home.
Use of the definite article 'my' with 'home' is unnecessary in this context. Native speakers say 'at home' rather than 'at my home' when referring to one's own home; remove 'my' for natural phrasing.
× If I likes the books I will buy it and read it at home so that I can and choose one post I like.
✓ If I like a book, I will buy it and read it at home so that I can choose a part I like.
Multiple issues: 'likes' should be 'like' to agree with subject I (subject-verb agreement). Use singular 'a book' instead of 'the books' for general statement. Use 'it' to refer to 'a book' consistently. Remove extraneous 'and' after 'can' and change 'post' (likely wrong word) to 'part' (or 'section') to make sense. Also punctuation and sentence clarity improved.
× I don't often go to the library, but the only reason I went here it must be researching for my assignment documents and and to borrow some books.
✓ I don't often go to the library, but the only reason I came here is to research for my assignment and to borrow some books.
Tense and structure problems: 'went here' should be 'came here' because speaker is describing current visit; 'must be researching' is awkward—use 'is to research' to state purpose. Remove duplicate 'and'. 'Assignment documents' is unnatural; 'my assignment' or 'my assignments' is preferable. Adjusted verb forms for clarity and correct present reference.
× Yes, when I was a kid. I don't have mobile phone and I can't play computer games, so the only entertainment for me is to read books in the library at that time.
✓ Yes, when I was a kid I didn't have a mobile phone and I couldn't play computer games, so my only entertainment then was reading books in the library.
When describing past situations, use past tense consistently: 'don't have' -> 'didn't have', 'can't play' -> 'couldn't play'. Also change 'is to read' to past 'was reading' or 'was reading books'—here 'my only entertainment then was reading books' reads naturally. Use 'mobile phone' with an article 'a'.
× I'm always lost in it.
✓ I was always lost in them.
Pronoun reference and tense mismatch: 'I'm' (present) should be 'I was' to match past context. 'It' is unclear; plural 'books' requires 'them'. Saying 'I was always lost in them' means being absorbed by books. Alternatively 'I was always lost in the stories' if preferred.
× No, I don't think so because I noticed that many kids nowadays, uh always has its own it their own phone and and always play games on the phone.
✓ No, I don't think so because I've noticed that many kids nowadays always have their own phones and always play games on them.
Subject-verb agreement: 'kids ... always has' should be 'kids ... always have'. Pronoun and article errors: use 'their own phones' instead of 'its own it their own phone'. Replace duplicate 'and'. Use plural 'phones' and plural pronoun 'them' for clarity. Use present perfect 'I've noticed' or present 'I notice' for ongoing observation.
