Part 1

Do you look out the window at the scenery when travelling by bus or car?

Score: 68.0

Suggestion: Be more concise and use natural phrasing. Remove fillers (uh), correct collocations (feel overwhelmed usually means strong negative/positive emotion—use 'feel delighted' or 'feel relaxed'), and fix grammar (remove extra articles and plural forms). Add one specific detail to enrich your answer and use a linking word if you add supporting info.

Example: Yes. I always look out of the window when I travel by bus or car because I find the scenery relaxing. For example, I enjoy watching green fields and passing villages, which helps me unwind during long journeys.

Do you take photos of the scenery outside the car window?

Score: 72.0

Suggestion: Avoid repeating the same idea and words. Use varied vocabulary (e.g., 'capture' instead of 'click photos'), correct uncountable/plural forms ('scenery' is uncountable), and condense into fewer sentences with one clear supporting detail about when or what you photograph.

Example: Yes, I often capture the scenery from the window because I love photography. For instance, I usually photograph interesting landscapes or unusual buildings with my phone, especially during sunrise or in the countryside.

Do you prefer the mountains or the sea?

Score: 70.0

Suggestion: Use present tense and a clear topic sentence. Avoid repetition and improve grammar and collocations ('it calms/relaxes my mind', not 'it comes and relax my mind'). Add a concise reason with a linking word to make your answer coherent and specific (e.g., talk about activities you like in mountains).

Example: I prefer the mountains because they calm me and I enjoy the greenery. For example, hiking on forest trails and breathing fresh air helps me relax more than a busy seaside.

Grammar

Singular and plural issue

× That is very pleasing and I feel very overwhelming by watching this outside sceneries.

That is very pleasing and I feel very overwhelmed when watching these outside scenes.

'Sceneries' is not commonly used in English; use 'scenes' or 'the scenery' (singular mass noun). 'This' should match plural 'scenes' so use 'these'. 'Overwhelming' is an adjective that describes something that overwhelms; the correct passive/experiencing adjective is 'overwhelmed'. Use 'when' rather than 'by' to describe the action of watching causing the feeling.

Singular and plural issue

× Yes, I always take photos of the sceneries outside the car window because I love photography.

Yes, I always take photos of the scenery outside the car window because I love photography.

Use 'scenery' as an uncountable noun to refer to the view in general. 'Sceneries' is rarely used and sounds unnatural. Keep 'scenery' singular/uncountable when speaking generally.

Verb in the present participle form

× Whenever I go out I always carry my phone with me and it has a good camera so I always click photos whenever I'm traveling somewhere by bus or car.

Whenever I go out, I always carry my phone with me because it has a good camera, so I always take photos when I'm traveling by bus or car.

'Click photos' is informal and nonstandard in some varieties; 'take photos' is standard. Also add commas for clarity. 'Whenever' used twice is repetitive; replace second with 'when'. Maintain present continuous 'I'm traveling' is acceptable but 'when I'm traveling' reads better.

Past tense issue

× I preferred the mountains.

I prefer the mountains.

The question asks a general preference in the present. Use present simple 'prefer' for habitual or general preferences, not past 'preferred' which implies it was only in the past.

Sentence structure errors

× I don't know why but whenever I see mountains it comes and relax my mind.

I don't know why, but whenever I see mountains, they calm and relax my mind.

'It comes' is unclear and incorrect because the subject should be 'mountains' (plural), so use 'they'. 'Relax my mind' is fine but 'calm and relax' better conveys the meaning. Also add commas for clarity and correct subject-verb agreement.

There be issue

× Whenever I go somewhere there is a mountain, I feel very relaxed.

Whenever I go somewhere with a mountain, I feel very relaxed.

Original word order is awkward. Use 'somewhere with a mountain' or 'where there is a mountain'. If keeping 'there is', the clause should be 'Whenever I go somewhere where there is a mountain, I feel very relaxed.' The correction uses a clearer structure.

Incorrect use of adjectives or adverbs

× I love to see greenery, so mountains are full of green trees and that relaxes me.

I love seeing greenery, so mountains, which are full of trees, relax me.

'Love to see' is acceptable but 'love seeing' is more natural here. 'Full of green trees' is wordy; 'full of trees' or 'green with trees' is better. 'That relaxes me' can be streamlined to 'relax me.'
