× Well, I really did any puzzles when I was little, maybe because it was not that popular back then, I don't know, but my parents never bought those games for me.

✓ Well, I really didn't do any puzzles when I was little, maybe because it was not that popular back then, I don't know, but my parents never bought those games for me.

The sentence incorrectly uses 'did' without 'not' to form a negative. In English, to make a negative in the past tense with 'did', we use 'did not' or its contraction 'didn't' followed by the base verb. So, 'did any puzzles' should be 'didn't do any puzzles'. This correction ensures proper negative past tense construction.

× Well, I guess I will do puzzles when I am bored.

✓ Well, I guess I do puzzles when I am bored.

The question asks about a habitual action, so the present simple tense is appropriate. Using 'will' suggests a future action, which is not suitable here. 'I do puzzles when I am bored' correctly expresses a habitual action.

× And sometimes I will do jigsaw puzzles at home to kill sometime.

✓ And sometimes I do jigsaw puzzles at home to kill some time.

The phrase 'kill sometime' is incorrect; the correct expression is 'kill some time', meaning to pass time. Also, 'will do' suggests future, but the context implies habitual action, so 'do' is better. This correction fixes the idiomatic expression and tense usage.

× Actually, neither. I don't do any of those puzzles. I only prefer do some jigsaw puzzles because I think it's more interesting and you know, I can put it in a frame when I finish it, so I think it's more meaningful.

✓ Actually, neither. I don't do any of those puzzles. I only prefer to do some jigsaw puzzles because I think they're more interesting and, you know, I can put them in a frame when I finish them, so I think it's more meaningful.

The verb 'prefer' should be followed by 'to' plus base verb: 'prefer to do'. Also, 'it's' refers to singular but 'jigsaw puzzles' is plural, so 'they're' is correct. Similarly, 'it' referring to puzzles should be 'them' as puzzles are plural. These corrections ensure correct verb form and pronoun agreement.

× And number puzzles like Sudoku are just too complicated for me and I still don't understand how to solve.

✓ And number puzzles like Sudoku are just too complicated for me and I still don't understand how to solve them.

The verb 'solve' requires an object; here, 'them' refers to 'number puzzles'. Omitting the object makes the sentence incomplete. Adding 'them' clarifies what is not understood how to solve.

× I guess so because it's good way to exercise their brains.

✓ I guess so because it's a good way to exercise their brains.

The phrase 'good way' needs an article 'a' before it. Also, 'it's' refers to 'it is', which is singular and correct here. Adding 'a' makes the noun phrase grammatically correct.

× They need to focus on the problems and try hard to solve it, which can prevent them from memory disorder.

✓ They need to focus on the problems and try hard to solve them, which can prevent them from memory disorders.

'Problems' is plural, so the pronoun should be 'them' not 'it'. Also, 'memory disorder' should be plural 'memory disorders' to refer generally to such conditions. These corrections ensure pronoun agreement and correct noun form.
