Part 1

Examiner

Are the roads in the area where you live busy?

Candidate

Yes, there are mirrored around the residential area I live and I think it's really busy, especially in the rush hours. What's more, my room is beside the Sam's Club, so during the weekend a lot of cars come there to buy something.

Examiner

Do people cross the road in the city where you live?

Candidate

Yes, I live in Shenzhen which is a mega city in China and you can see a lot of skyscrapers and roads anywhere and there are a lot of pedestrian crossings around where I live to make people safe.

Examiner

How is the condition of the roads in your city?

Candidate

I think the roads in my city are very clean and wide. What's more, there are some trees planted both of the two sides, so it makes driving a pleasant experience and it also has a beautiful scenery.

Examiner

Do you think the roads in your city need improvement?

Candidate

Yes, I think it needs some improvement and I suggest the government to set some traffic lights in the main road because it is really busy during the rush hour. What's more, they can widen some roads.

Part 1

Are the roads in the area where you live busy?

Score: 62.0

Suggestion: Be clearer and more natural: start with a direct topic sentence, correct word choice, avoid redundancy, and give one specific example with a linking phrase. Keep to 2–3 sentences total.

Example: Yes, the roads near my home are very busy, especially during rush hour. For example, my apartment is next to a large Sam's Club, so many shoppers arrive by car on weekends, which causes congestion on the nearby streets.

Do people cross the road in the city where you live?

Score: 70.0

Suggestion: Focus on a direct answer and add one clear supporting detail with a linking word. Avoid unnecessary general statements about the city unless they directly support the answer.

Example: Yes, many people cross the roads frequently in Shenzhen. In my neighborhood there are numerous pedestrian crossings and traffic signals, so residents can cross safely even on busy streets.

How is the condition of the roads in your city?

Score: 75.0

Suggestion: Give a concise topic sentence then one specific detail and a reason or result. Use correct phrases (e.g., "on both sides" not "both of the two sides").

Example: Overall, the roads in my city are clean and wide. Moreover, trees are planted on both sides of many avenues, which makes driving more pleasant and improves the scenery.

Do you think the roads in your city need improvement?

Score: 68.0

Suggestion: Answer directly and give two specific, practical suggestions with brief reasons. Use natural phrasing (e.g., "install traffic lights" and "widen some roads"). Limit to 2–3 sentences.

Example: Yes, I think some improvements are needed. For example, the authorities should install traffic lights at busy junctions to reduce congestion during rush hour, and they could widen certain bottleneck roads to improve traffic flow.

Grammar

Singular and plural issue

× Yes, there are mirrored around the residential area I live and I think it's really busy, especially in the rush hours.

Yes, there are many cars around the residential area where I live and I think it's really busy, especially during rush hour.

The original sentence uses 'mirrored' incorrectly (wrong word) and has missing plural/quantifier clarity. Replace 'mirrored' with 'many cars' to match meaning and use 'where I live' for correct relative clause. Use 'during rush hour' not 'in the rush hours' for natural English. Grammar problem type ID: 1

Incorrect use of prepositions

× What's more, my room is beside the Sam's Club, so during the weekend a lot of cars come there to buy something.

What's more, my room is beside Sam's Club, so at the weekend a lot of cars come there to buy things.

Use 'beside Sam's Club' (no 'the' before a store name unless necessary). Prefer 'at the weekend' (British) or 'on weekends' (American). 'Buy something' is vague; 'buy things' or 'go shopping' is more natural. Changed prepositions accordingly. Grammar problem type ID: 11

Sentence structure errors

× Yes, I live in Shenzhen which is a mega city in China and you can see a lot of skyscrapers and roads anywhere and there are a lot of pedestrian crossings around where I live to make people safe.

Yes, I live in Shenzhen, which is a megacity in China; you can see many skyscrapers and roads everywhere, and there are many pedestrian crossings around where I live to keep people safe.

Run-on sentence with awkward wording. 'Mega city' should be 'megacity' as one word. 'Anywhere' should be 'everywhere' and 'a lot of' replaced with 'many' for countable nouns. 'To make people safe' is unnatural; use 'to keep people safe.' Punctuation and clause division improved. Grammar problem type ID: 26

Incorrect use of prepositions

× I think the roads in my city are very clean and wide. What's more, there are some trees planted both of the two sides, so it makes driving a pleasant experience and it also has a beautiful scenery.

I think the roads in my city are very clean and wide. What's more, there are trees planted on both sides, so driving is a pleasant experience and the scenery is beautiful.

'Both of the two sides' is incorrect; use 'on both sides.' 'It makes driving a pleasant experience' is wordy; 'driving is a pleasant experience' is clearer. 'It also has a beautiful scenery' is incorrect because 'scenery' is uncountable and shouldn't have 'a'; use 'the scenery is beautiful.' Prepositions and article usage corrected. Grammar problem type ID: 11

Subject-verb agreement errors

× Yes, I think it needs some improvement and I suggest the government to set some traffic lights in the main road because it is really busy during the rush hour.

Yes, I think they need some improvements and I suggest the government install some traffic lights on the main road because it is really busy during rush hour.

Use 'they' to refer to 'the roads' (plural) or rephrase to avoid 'it' referring to plural nouns. 'Suggest someone to do something' is incorrect; use 'suggest that the government install' or 'suggest the government install.' 'In the main road' should be 'on the main road.' 'Rush hour' usually without 'the' in this context. Grammar problem type ID: 27

Incorrect use of prepositions

× What's more, they can widen some roads.

What's more, they could widen some roads.

Original sentence is grammatically acceptable, but 'can' suggests ability rather than suggestion; 'could' or 'might' better matches the suggestion context. Change of modal verb aligns with intended meaning. Grammar problem type ID: 11
