Are there tall buildings near your home?

Score: 68.0

Suggestion: Ваша відповідь розумна, але є граматичні помилки, повтори та нечітка структура. Сконцентруйтеся на короткому прямому початковому реченні, потім додайте 1–2 підтримуючих деталі з логічними зв'язками. Виправте граматику: «it was banned» → «building taller than five floors were banned», уникайте зайвих фраз (наприклад, «during some period» замініть на конкретніше «in the past»).

Example: Yes, there are a few tall buildings near my home, although I don't live in a big city. For example, local regulations used to ban buildings taller than five floors, so most structures are mid-rise rather than skyscrapers.

Do you take photos of buildings?

Score: 72.0

Suggestion: Ваша відповідь природна, але є заповнювачі («uh», «umm») і повтори (двічі «enjoy/ explore»). Зробіть тему чіткою в першому реченні, потім додайте одну конкретну причину і приклад, використовуючи зв'язки (for example, because, so).

Example: Yes, I often take photos of buildings, especially when I'm traveling to another city. I enjoy capturing interesting shapes and impressive architecture because photos help me remember design details and inspire my own sketches.

Is there a building that you would like to visit?

Score: 65.0

Suggestion: Ідея добра, але є граматичні помилки, нечіткість і зайві фрази. Замініть невизначеність коротким визнанням незнання назви, виправте граматику: «an unique» → «a unique», «started in the 18th century and it still continue» → «was started in the 18th century and is still under construction». Додайте одну конкретну деталь про привабливість будівлі.

Example: Yes, I would like to visit a famous church in Barcelona called the Sagrada Família. I can't remember the exact name right now, but it has a very unique shape; it was started in the 18th century and is still under construction, which makes it fascinating to see.

Grammar

Singular and plural issue

× It's quite a windy area and also it was banned buildings taller than a 5 floors during some period.

It's quite a windy area, and there was a ban on buildings taller than five floors for some period.

The sentence has a plural/singular and structural problem: 'it was banned buildings' is incorrect word order and use of passive; 'a 5 floors' mixes singular article with plural noun. Use 'there was a ban on buildings taller than five floors' to correctly express a past restriction. Also write numbers as words in formal sentences and remove the unnecessary article 'a'. Suggestion: use 'there was a ban on' + plural noun, and keep number agreement (five floors).

Verb + -ing form

× Yes, I do take photos, uh, especially when I'm traveling to umm another city and I enjoy to explore uh, and see interesting shapes and impressive architecture.

Yes, I do take photos, especially when I'm traveling to another city, and I enjoy exploring and seeing interesting shapes and impressive architecture.

After verbs like 'enjoy' in English, the gerund (-ing) form is required, not the infinitive. 'I enjoy to explore' should be 'I enjoy exploring'. Also use gerund 'seeing' after 'enjoy' when listing actions. Remove filler words for clarity. Maintain parallel structure: 'exploring and seeing'.

Incorrect use of articles

× Yes, I would like to visit one distinct church in Barcelona. I don't exactly remember the name, but it has such an an unique shape and I know that the building started in the 18th century and it still continue.

Yes, I would like to visit a distinctive church in Barcelona. I don't exactly remember the name, but it has a unique shape, and I know that construction began in the 18th century and it is still continuing.

Several article and word-choice issues: 'one distinct church' is awkward; 'a distinctive church' is more natural. 'an an unique' has a duplicated article and wrong article: 'unique' begins with a consonant sound, so 'a unique' (though 'a unique' is less common than 'a uniquely shaped' or 'a unique' is acceptable) but duplicate 'an' must be removed. Use 'construction began' or 'the building construction began' for past start; 'it still continue' lacks proper verb form—use 'is still continuing' or 'still continues'. Suggestion: use 'began' (simple past) for when something started and present continuous or simple present to indicate it continues.
