Do you take photos of buildings?

Usually I don't take photos of buildings unless I need to remember the place and the shape of the building. I'm more most of the time I take picture of nature, not the buildings and not street of the cities.
Examiner
Is there a building that you would like to visit?
Candidate
Yes, I'm living in Jeddah and there is one long tower which is so beautiful and attractive. I wish to visit this building to see what is inside and is it that much beautiful as outside. I know there are many restaurants in this tower and beautiful places so I wish to go there.

Not really, my dream is to have small apartment in a small city, to have uh to live in a short building so I can see the trees. And actually I have phobia from height so I prefer short buildings.
Are there tall buildings near your home?
Score: 62.0Suggestion: Be more concise and organized. Start with a clear topic sentence answering the question, then add one or two specific details. Avoid filler words (uh) and incomplete sentences. Use linking words to connect ideas (for example, however, because).
Example: Yes, there are many tall buildings near my home because I live in a large, crowded city. For example, there are several high-rise office towers and apartment blocks within a ten-minute walk. However, I prefer smaller cities because they have shorter buildings and more green spaces, so I can see trees from my window.

Example: Yes, there is a famous tower in Jeddah called the [name of tower]. I would like to visit it because it looks stunning from the outside and I want to see the interior design.

Do you want to live in a tall building?

Example: No, I don't want to live in a tall building because I prefer a small apartment in a quieter city. I also have a fear of heights, so a low-rise building with a view of trees would be much more comfortable for me.
× I'm living in a big and crowded city, so it means nearby my home are a lot of tall buildings, sky, uh, creepers, and high, uh, rise offices.
✓ I live in a big, crowded city, so there are a lot of tall buildings, sky scrapers, and high-rise offices near my home.
Use simple present 'I live' for general facts rather than 'I'm living'. The phrase 'there are' is the correct 'there be' construction to state existence. Word order should place 'near my home' after the noun phrase. Also 'skyscrapers' and 'high-rise' are the correct forms. Grammar problem type ID: 6
× I love more small cities because the buildings are, uh, shorter and more green areas you can have.
✓ I prefer small cities because the buildings are shorter and there are more green areas.
Use 'prefer' rather than 'love more' for comparative liking. The sentence originally mixes structures; 'there are more green areas' correctly uses the 'there be' structure with plural noun. Adjective placement: 'more green areas' is correct but needs 'there are'. Grammar problem type ID: 13
× I love to see trees from my windows, so I.
✓ I love to see trees from my windows, so I prefer living on a low floor.
The original sentence is incomplete ('so I.'), creating a sentence structure error. Complete the thought to match context; here adding 'I prefer living on a low floor' makes the sentence grammatically complete and coherent. Grammar problem type ID: 26},{
