What is your favourite food?
Score: 48.0Suggestion: Be clear and concise: start with a direct topic sentence stating the favourite food, then give two specific supporting details using linking words. Avoid filler sounds and unclear words. Also use correct grammar (subject-verb agreement, articles) and precise vocabulary for ingredients or flavors.
Example: My favourite food is chicken chili. I like it because it is spicy and full of flavour, and it usually has tender strips of chicken and peppers. In addition, I enjoy it with rice because the sauce soaks into the grains, which makes the meal very satisfying.
What kind of food did you like when you were young?
Score: 44.0Suggestion: Answer directly and use past tense consistently. Give one clear topic sentence about favourite childhood food, then add a specific reason or example. Avoid vague phrases like 'packet food' without explanation and cut fillers.
Example: When I was young, I mostly ate packaged snacks and spicy instant noodles. For example, I often had instant noodle packets with prawns or dried seasoning because they were quick and very flavorful.
Do you eat different foods at different times of the year?
Score: 54.0Suggestion: Start with a clear topic sentence, then explain with specific seasonal examples and linking words (for example, in winter/ in summer). Use correct tense and more precise vocabulary for dishes and drinks.
Example: Yes, I eat different foods depending on the season. For example, in winter I usually have hot soups and sesame porridge to stay warm, whereas in summer I prefer cold salads and chilled fruit drinks to keep cool.
Has your favourite food changed since you were a child?
Score: 50.0Suggestion: Answer directly (Yes/No) and use clear contrast language (however, but) to explain the change. Use correct grammar (past vs present, articles) and give a specific reason for the change (health, taste) with a brief example.
Example: Yes, my favourite food has changed. As a child I ate a lot of packaged junk food because it tasted good, but now I avoid it because it lacks nutrients. Instead I prefer chicken chili, which is high in protein and more satisfying.
× One of my favorite food is chicken chili, uh, with strips like caso delicious and it's also have some crowns and also it's more than inside.
✓ One of my favorite foods is chicken chili, with strips that are delicious; it also has some crumbs and a lot of filling inside.
The phrase 'one of my favorite food' uses singular 'food' but should be plural 'foods' because 'one of' selects from a plural set. 'it's also have' is incorrect subject-verb agreement and should be 'it also has'. Replace vague words and fix noun forms for clarity. Suggestion: Use 'one of my favorite foods' and ensure verbs agree with singular 'one' or with the noun subject ('it has').
× with strips like caso delicious
✓ with strips that are delicious
'like' is used incorrectly to introduce a clause describing the strips. Use a relative clause 'that are delicious' or an adjective phrase 'delicious strips'. Also 'caso' seems incorrect or misspelled; replace with appropriate adjective. Suggestion: Use 'delicious strips' or 'strips that are delicious' for correct adjective use.
× it's also have some crowns
✓ it also has some crumbs
'crowns' is likely a wrong word choice; if meant 'crumbs' use that. More importantly, 'it's have' is ungrammatical: 'it has' is correct for third person singular. Suggestion: Use 'it has' plus correct plural noun if needed.
× and also it's more than inside.
✓ and it has a lot inside.
The original phrase 'more than inside' is unclear and ungrammatical. Use 'a lot inside' or 'a lot of filling inside' to convey meaning. Also remove unnecessary contraction 'it's' when followed by a verb. Suggestion: Rephrase to 'it has a lot inside' for clarity.
× That's why it's my favorite food, uh, with cultiberian food also.
✓ That's why it's my favorite food, and I also like other cuisine such as Cuban or Iberian food.
The clause 'with cultiberian food also' is ungrammatical and unclear. It seems the speaker means they enjoy other cuisines; restructure the sentence and correct the cuisine name. Suggestion: Explicitly state which cuisines you mean and connect ideas with 'and'.
× Uh, when I was young, I like to eat song food like a packet food which make tasty spicy and also prawns that we I only add like a packet food.
✓ When I was young, I liked to eat instant food from packets that were spicy; I also ate prawns, and I mainly ate foods from packets.
The time marker 'when I was young' requires past tense 'liked' and 'ate' rather than present 'like'. 'which make' should be 'which made' or 'that were' to match past tense. The sentence is also repetitive and needs reordering for clarity. Suggestion: Use past tense verbs after time markers indicating the past, and simplify the sentence.
× I don't eat anything other than that.
✓ I didn't eat anything else.
Within the past-tense context, use 'didn't' instead of 'don't'. Also 'other than that' is acceptable but 'else' is more natural here. Suggestion: Match pronoun/verb forms to the tense and prefer concise phrasing.
× Yes, I do. I ate different foods in a different time and uh, different occasion.
✓ Yes, I do. I eat different foods at different times and on different occasions.
The question asks about current habits, so present tense 'I eat' is appropriate, not past 'I ate'. Use plural 'times' and preposition 'at' for times and 'on' for occasions. Suggestion: Use present simple for habitual actions and correct prepositions.
× Like uh, winter we have uh like to eat or sesame lor do and some soup, but you know, summer we like to eat cooler type of food.
✓ For example, in winter we like to eat sesame oil dishes and soups, but in summer we prefer cooler types of food.
Time expressions need prepositions: 'in winter' and 'in summer'. 'have like to eat' is awkward; use 'we like to eat' or 'we eat'. Correct noun phrases ('sesame oil dishes') and comparative phrasing ('prefer cooler types of food'). Suggestion: Use 'in' for seasons and 'like to eat' for preferences, and choose clear dish names.
× Is it seems because when I was a child, I like to eat packed food like a junk.
✓ It seems so, because when I was a child I liked to eat packaged junk food.
'Is it seems' is ungrammatical; use 'It seems so' or 'It seems that'. Match tense: 'when I was a child' requires 'liked'. Use correct terms 'packaged junk food'. Suggestion: Start with 'It seems so' and ensure tense consistency.
× It's a cold cup say.
✓ It was a cold cup, I would say.
The original is fragmented and unclear. If the speaker attempts to describe temperature, use 'It was cold, I would say' or 'It was served cold, I would say.' Maintain past tense context. Suggestion: Use complete clauses and proper adverbial phrases.
× But now I don't like this food because in the this food there's no have any nutrients and this so I like to switch my favorite eat chicken chilli.
✓ But now I don't like that food because it doesn't have any nutrients, so I switched to preferring chicken chili.
Combine correct present tense for current dislike 'don't like' with correct negative 'doesn't have'. The phrase 'I like to switch my favorite eat' is ungrammatical; use 'I switched to preferring' or 'I now prefer'. Maintain logical tense sequence. Suggestion: Use 'doesn't have' for present lack and express preference change as 'I now prefer' or 'I switched to'.
× There are lots of protein also.
✓ There is also a lot of protein.
'Protein' is usually an uncountable noun and takes singular verb 'is' with 'a lot of'. 'Lots of protein' is acceptable but then use 'There is lots of protein' or 'There is also a lot of protein.' Suggestion: Use correct verb with uncountable nouns: 'There is a lot of protein' or 'It contains a lot of protein.'
