점수: 78.0제안: Your answer is relevant and gives reasons, but it is slightly wordy and repeats ideas (studying, concentrating).

× Yes, I visit libraries often.
✓ Yes, I often visit libraries.
Word order is awkward; adverb placement should be before the main verb for natural English. Place 'often' before 'visit' to improve fluency and maintain present simple tense for habitual action.
× I have a library near my house and whenever I am feeling low or I want to study harder or concentrate better, I visit the library for completing my work and for reading extra books if I have time.
✓ I have a library near my house and whenever I feel low or want to study harder or concentrate better, I visit the library to finish my work and to read extra books if I have time.
Use simple present tense (feel, want) for habitual or general states rather than present continuous 'am feeling' here. 'For completing' is unnatural; use the infinitive 'to finish' and likewise 'to read' for purpose. Remove the repeated subject 'I' in the second clause for conciseness.
× Libraries have a very quiet atmosphere, so I go there along with my books to study.
✓ Libraries have a very quiet atmosphere, so I go there with my books to study.
'Along with' is acceptable but wordy; 'with' is more natural here. This correction keeps present simple and clarifies the meaning without changing tense or structure.
× Or whenever I had to concentrate on an important topic, I just visit the library, sit there and read my books.
✓ Whenever I had to concentrate on an important topic, I would just visit the library, sit there and read my books.
The sentence mixes past reference 'had to' with present simple 'visit/sit/read'. Use 'would' plus base verbs or past simple consistently for habitual past actions: 'would visit, sit and read' or 'visited, sat and read'. Using 'would' emphasizes habitual past behavior.
× Yes, my school was having a big library and there was a special library lecture arranged for all the students.
✓ Yes, my school had a big library and there was a special library lecture arranged for all the students.
Use simple past 'had' rather than past progressive 'was having' for possessing something in the past. 'Was having' implies an ongoing action, which is unnatural for possession.
× So I often visited library during that lecture.
✓ So I often visited the library during that lecture.
'Library' needs the definite article 'the' because it refers to a specific library previously mentioned (the school's library). Also keep past tense 'visited' consistent.
× Yes, libraries are quite popular among Chinese kids and moreover, Chinese kids are very smart and they go to libraries to read different story books or additional books according to their preferences.
✓ Yes, libraries are quite popular among Chinese kids and, moreover, Chinese kids are very studious and they go to libraries to read different storybooks or additional books according to their preferences.
'Story books' is commonly one word 'storybooks' and 'smart' can be misleading; in this context 'studious' better matches visiting libraries. Also added a comma after 'and' before 'moreover' for flow (stylistic). This keeps present simple tense for general statements.
