× I think library is a really good place to help you focusing, focusing on the things you need to do because it's really quiet and you always have the electronic resources which can help you to search for.

✓ I think the library is a really good place to help you focus on the things you need to do because it's really quiet and you always have electronic resources which can help you search for information.

In English, when referring to a specific place like 'library' in this context, the definite article 'the' is required before 'library'. Also, 'help you focusing' is incorrect; the verb 'help' is followed by the base form 'focus'. Additionally, 'the electronic resources' should be 'electronic resources' without 'the' because it refers to resources in general. Lastly, 'help you to search for' is better as 'help you search for information' for clarity.

× I always go to the school library of Capitol Medical University because the library have had bought have bought the many online resources like the Journal of Pediatric Surgery where I can download the article.

✓ I always go to the school library of Capitol Medical University because the library has bought many online resources like the Journal of Pediatric Surgery where I can download articles.

The phrase 'the many online resources' is incorrect; 'many' does not need 'the' before it when used generally. Also, 'have had bought have bought' is redundant and incorrect; the correct form is 'has bought' for singular subject 'library'. 'Download the article' should be 'download articles' to indicate multiple articles generally.

× Yes, I always go to the library because the books at that time is very expensive.

✓ Yes, I always went to the library because the books at that time were very expensive.

The sentence refers to the past ('at that time'), so the verb tense should be past tense. 'I always go' should be 'I always went' and 'books ... is' should be 'books ... were' to agree with plural subject and past time.

× You will have to pay about 20 to 50 RMB to buy a book which you want to read.

✓ You would have to pay about 20 to 50 RMB to buy a book that you want to read.

Although not strictly a plural issue, 'which' is better replaced by 'that' in restrictive clauses referring to things. Also, 'will have to' is future tense, but since the context is past habitual, 'would have to' fits better.

× But if you go to the library you can get anything you want, any books you want for free.

✓ But if you go to the library, you can get anything you want, any book you want for free.

'Any books you want' should be 'any book you want' because 'any' with plural nouns is acceptable but here 'any book' is more natural when referring to individual items. Also, a comma is needed after 'library' for clarity.

× Yes, Chinese kids often go to a library especially when they're preparing their tasks.

✓ Yes, Chinese kids often go to the library especially when they're preparing their tasks.

When referring to a specific place known to both speaker and listener, 'the library' is correct rather than 'a library'.

× As I have said, the library are free and they can provide quiet environment which can help you to concentrate it on the things you need to do and it's always provide the.

✓ As I have said, the library is free and it can provide a quiet environment which can help you concentrate on the things you need to do, and it always provides that.

'Library' is singular, so the verb should be 'is' not 'are'. 'They' should be 'it' to agree with singular 'library'. 'Quiet environment' needs the article 'a'. 'Concentrate it on' is incorrect; 'concentrate on' is correct. 'It's always provide the' is incomplete and should be 'it always provides that' or similar.
