Part 1

Are there tall buildings near your home?

Score: 62.0

Suggestion: Make the answer more fluent, grammatical and concise. Start with a clear topic sentence, correct grammar (e.g. 'skyscrapers'), remove redundancy, and add one specific detail. Use a linking word if adding support.

Example: Yes. There are many tall buildings near my home because I live in the city centre. For example, several modern skyscrapers line the main avenue, including the Gangnam Tower, which has shops and offices. Because of them, the area feels very busy and modern.

Do you take photos of buildings?

Score: 78.0

Suggestion: Keep the response direct and slightly expand with a brief reason and an example using a linking word. Correct small phrasing issues ('the nature' → 'nature'). Limit to 2–4 sentences for naturalness.

Example: Not really. I usually prefer photographing nature because landscapes and skies feel more calming; for instance, I often photograph sunsets at a nearby park.

Is there a building that you would like to visit?

Score: 70.0

Suggestion: Start with a clear topic sentence, correct grammar (e.g. 'has' not 'have'), and add a brief reason and a specific detail or personal reaction. Use a linking word to connect ideas.

Example: Yes, I would like to visit the Canada Building because it reportedly has more than 100 floors. From the observation deck you can see the whole city, so I think it would be an impressive place to take photos and get a sense of the city's layout.

Grammar

Sentence structure errors

× Yes there are many tall buildings near my home, although I live in the city center but and see many skycrabbers and high buildings are built surround here, for example a Gangnam tower.

Yes, there are many tall buildings near my home because I live in the city center; I can see many skyscrapers and tall buildings around here, for example Gangnam Tower.

The original sentence has multiple structural problems: redundant conjunctions ('although' and 'but' used together), incorrect word order ('and see many'), misspelled words ('skycrabbers' should be 'skyscrapers'), incorrect passive phrasing ('are built surround here'), and unnecessary article before a proper name ('a Gangnam tower'). To improve, keep one clear connective ('because' or 'and'), use correct word order and spelling, use 'around here' for location, and omit the indefinite article before a named building. Practice by breaking long sentences into clear clauses and choosing one connector at a time.

Verb in the present participle form

× No, not really. I don't take photos of my buildings. I prefer to take photos of the nature, like landscape and sky.

No, not really. I don't take photos of buildings. I prefer to take photos of nature, such as landscapes and the sky.

Errors include incorrect use of the definite article 'the' before uncountable noun 'nature' and singular 'landscape' when plural is more natural. Also 'my buildings' implies ownership incorrectly; 'buildings' is appropriate. Use 'such as' to list examples and pluralize 'landscapes' for general reference. Improve by removing unnecessary articles and matching number (singular/plural) to general statements.

Subject-verb agreement errors

× Yes, I would like to visit the Canada Building because I heard that the building have more than 100 floors and when you stand at the top of the building you can see the entire city above you.

Yes, I would like to visit the Canada Building because I heard that the building has more than 100 floors, and when you stand at the top you can see the entire city below you.

The error is subject-verb agreement: 'building have' should be 'building has' because 'building' is singular. Also 'above you' is incorrect in this context; from a high point the city is 'below you.' Removed a repeated phrase 'of the building' for conciseness. Improve by ensuring the verb agrees with the singular subject and by choosing correct spatial preposition ('below' instead of 'above').
