Which do you prefer, e-books or paper books?
Score: 48.0Suggestion: Be concise and correct grammar. Start with a clear topic sentence, then give one or two specific reasons using linking words (for example, because, and, although). Avoid repetition and filler words. Also correct subject-verb agreement (paper books are) and inappropriate comparisons (e-books are convenient but I prefer paper).
Example: I prefer paper books because I find them easier on my eyes and more comfortable to read for long periods. Although e-books are convenient and portable, paper books let me relax without screen glare, so I usually choose them for leisure reading.
When do you usually read online?
Score: 46.0Suggestion: Answer directly with a topic sentence and give a specific situation or example. Use linking words like when or because to connect reason. Avoid repeating words and unclear phrases (e.g. 'relevant relative books', 'elected literature').
Example: I usually read online when I need to find specific resources or academic articles. For instance, if I can't find a relevant textbook in the library, I search online journals and websites because they offer up-to-date information.

× I prefer paper books because paper books is very, very, because when I read the paper book, I don't feel very tired
✓ I prefer paper books because paper books are much easier on my eyes; when I read a paper book, I don't feel very tired
The noun 'paper books' is plural and requires the plural verb 'are' (singular 'is' is incorrect). Also 'the paper book' should be 'a paper book' when speaking generally. Use plural agreement for general preference and singular indefinite article for a single instance. Suggestion: Match singular/plural forms and their verbs (paper books are; a paper book).
× although the e-books is very convenient and portable
✓ although e-books are very convenient and portable
'E-books' is plural, so the verb must be 'are' instead of 'is'. Also the definite article 'the' is unnecessary in this general statement. Suggestion: Use plural verb forms with plural nouns (e-books are).
× because it's, it's, it doesn't have a convenience like the paper
✓ because they don't have the same convenience as paper books
'A convenience' is unnatural here and 'the paper' is vague. Use 'the same convenience as' to compare features. Also pronoun must agree with plural 'e-books' (they don't). Suggestion: Use natural comparative phrasing: 'they don't have the same convenience as paper books'.
× when I need to need to find resources through the Internet and I will read online
✓ when I need to find resources on the Internet, I read them online
Duplicate 'need to need to' is an error; 'read online' in a habitual context should use present simple 'I read' not future 'I will read'. Also use 'on the Internet' rather than 'through the Internet'. Suggestion: Remove duplication and use correct preposition and tense for habitual actions (I read online).
× because I don't have a relevant relative books
✓ because I don't have relevant books on that topic
'Relevant relative books' is ungrammatical: 'relevant' is sufficient and 'relative' is incorrect here. Use 'books on that topic' or 'related books'. Suggestion: Use a single appropriate adjective: 'relevant books' or 'related books on that topic'.
× for the elected literature, so I need to read online
✓ for the elective literature, so I need to read online
'Elected literature' is likely a misuse of 'elective' or 'selected'; context suggests 'elective literature' (courses) or 'selected literature'. The sentence is a fragment; corrected to 'for the elective literature, I need to read online'. Suggestion: Choose correct adjective ('elective' or 'selected') and connect clauses properly ('so I need to read online').
× maybe I will read online on the future because on the in because the online resources contains a, a variety of the books
✓ Maybe I will read online in the future because online resources contain a variety of books
Use 'in the future' not 'on the future'. 'Contains' conflicts with plural 'resources' and should be 'contain'. Remove repeated filler words. Also 'a variety of books' does not need 'the'. Suggestion: Use correct future time expression 'in the future' and match plural subject and verb ('resources contain').
× like the literature, history and sociology, and it is very convenient to search for these resources and to, uh, I can quickly find the.
✓ like literature, history, and sociology, and it is very convenient to search these resources, so I can quickly find them
Remove unnecessary 'the' before subject areas; 'resources' is plural so pronoun should be 'them'. Also avoid trailing 'the'. Suggestion: Use plural pronouns to refer back to plural nouns and omit unnecessary articles ('literature' not 'the literature').
× I would like to read some famous stories, interesting stories and literature because I think that, uh, I don't have any time to read the paper books of this literature.
✓ I would like to read famous and interesting stories and literature because I don't have time to read the paper books for this literature
'Any time' vs 'no time' nuance: 'I don't have time' is natural. 'The paper books of this literature' is awkward; use 'paper books for this literature' or 'physical copies of these works'. Suggestion: Simplify and use natural collocations: 'read the paper books for these works' or 'read physical copies'.
× So, uh, maybe it's a good chance for me to review some classical or authority.
✓ So maybe it's a good chance for me to review some classics or authoritative works
'Classical' should be 'classics' (nouns), and 'authority' is the wrong form; 'authoritative works' or 'authorities' (as people) is correct. Suggestion: Use correct noun forms: 'classics' and 'authoritative works'.
× we can store the file on the comput, laptop or the all the pipe and it's very convenient when reading on the paper
✓ we can store files on a computer, laptop, or tablet, and it's more convenient than reading on paper
Use plural 'files' to match general statement; 'the comput' is misspelled and 'the all the pipe' unclear — likely 'tablet'. Compare convenience correctly: 'more convenient than reading on paper'. Suggestion: Use correct device names and compare with 'than'.
× I can I can touch the book and do 10 page around it
✓ I can touch the book and turn about ten pages at a time
'Do 10 page around it' is ungrammatical. The verb 'turn' + object 'pages' expresses the action. Use 'about ten pages' not '10 page'. Suggestion: Use correct verbs with page objects: 'turn about ten pages' or 'flip through about ten pages'.
× Yeah, that is the different
✓ Yes, that is the difference
Adjective 'different' is incorrect as a noun here; use noun 'difference'. 'Yeah' can be changed to 'Yes' for formality. Suggestion: Use 'difference' when referring to a distinction between things.
