× So I I cooking them on the weekends because my children, my family members.
✓ So I cook them on the weekends because my children and other family members like them.
The original uses 'cooking' incorrectly after 'I' where the simple present 'cook' is required for habitual actions. Remove the duplicate 'I' and add 'and other' to clarify 'family members'. Use simple present for routines: 'I cook'.
× I remember when I was young, I like to eat dumplings because I remember when I was a kid my my family is very poor, so we eat dumplings is very happy.
✓ I remember that when I was young, I liked to eat dumplings because my family was very poor, so eating dumplings made us very happy.
Multiple tense and structure errors: 'I like' should be past 'I liked' to match 'when I was young'. 'My my' is a repetition. 'My family is very poor' should be past 'was very poor'. 'We eat dumplings is very happy' is ungrammatical; use a clause 'eating dumplings made us very happy.' Maintain past tense consistency when referring to childhood.
× Yes, uh, we eat different foods at different time of the year.
✓ Yes, we eat different foods at different times of the year.
Use the plural 'times' with 'different' and include 'of the year' for the expression. 'At different time' is ungrammatical; the correct collocation is 'at different times of the year.'
× For example, umm, for example, uh, in the may the Jung Choo jie, uh, we eat uh, mooncake, we eat dumplings at noon.
✓ For example, in May during the Dragon Boat Festival we eat mooncakes, and sometimes dumplings at noon.
Problems: month names are capitalized ('May'); 'the Jung Choo jie' is unclear and needs correct festival name—here I used 'Dragon Boat Festival' as an example (if it was another festival, use its correct English name). 'Mooncake' should be plural 'mooncakes' when referring generally. Use articles and conjunctions to connect ideas: 'during the ...' and 'we eat mooncakes, and sometimes dumplings at noon.'
× Yes, my favorite food change, umm, changed since my since my was a child.
✓ Yes, my favorite food has changed since I was a child.
Use present perfect 'has changed' to describe a change from the past to the present. Remove repetition 'since my since my' and correct 'was a child' to 'I was a child.'
× I remember the I remember when I was a kid, I eat, I ate the mooncake.
✓ I remember that when I was a kid, I ate mooncakes.
Use past tense 'ate' consistently and remove repetition 'I remember the I remember.' Use plural 'mooncakes' for general reference. Keep sentence concise: 'I remember that when I was a kid, I ate mooncakes.'
× The mooncake, umm, included uh, peanuts and seeds. But now.
✓ The mooncakes used to include peanuts and seeds, but now they often have different fillings.
'Included' is past tense but needs a subject 'mooncakes' and clearer contrast with 'but now'. Use 'used to include' to indicate past habit and add continuation 'but now they often have different fillings' to complete the contrast. Also pluralize 'mooncake' for general statements.
