What is your favourite food?
수험생
My favorite food is noodles. I'm from Shanxi where hand pulled noodles are famous across China. They have a truly texture and rich broth that I grew up eating. Especially like the local vinegar based sauce, it gives the dish a tangy flavor that I can't get anywhere else.

Has your favourite food changed since you were a child?

점수: 82.0제안: Be careful with minor grammar and word choice (e.g., "a truly texture" → "a chewy texture", "Especially like" → "I especially like"). Keep answers concise (max 5 sentences) and include one linking phrase to connect ideas. Add a short personal reaction to make it more natural.
예시: My favorite food is hand-pulled noodles from Shanxi. They have a chewy texture and a rich, slow-cooked broth that I grew up eating. I especially like the local vinegar-based sauce because it gives the dish a sharp, tangy flavor I can't find elsewhere. Overall, eating them always reminds me of family meals when I was young.
What kind of food did you like when you were young?
점수: 88.0제안: Good direct answer and supporting details. Improve coherence by using a linking word to show contrast (e.g., "However"), and replace casual words like "crisps" with context-appropriate vocabulary if needed. Keep sentences varied and avoid repeating "especially" twice.
예시: When I was a child, I preferred snacks to main meals because I thought they tasted better. However, they were often unhealthy, and I mainly ate sweet treats such as chocolate and cookies, as well as occasional salty snacks like potato crisps. Looking back, I now try to balance treats with healthier options.

× They have a truly texture and rich broth that I grew up eating.
✓ They have a truly rich texture and a rich broth that I grew up eating.
The sentence misuses articles and adjective order. 'a truly texture' is ungrammatical because 'texture' is a countable noun here and requires an article: 'a texture' or better 'rich texture'. Also using 'rich' before both 'texture' and 'broth' avoids repetition; add 'a' before 'rich broth' to mark the singular countable noun. Suggestion: use 'a truly rich texture and a rich broth' or 'a truly rich texture and rich broth' for smoother phrasing.
× Especially like the local vinegar based sauce, it gives the dish a tangy flavor that I can't get anywhere else.
✓ I especially like the local vinegar-based sauce; it gives the dish a tangy flavor that I can't get anywhere else.
The original sentence lacks a subject and mispunctuates the compound adjective. 'Especially like...' omits the subject 'I'. Also 'vinegar based' as a compound adjective should be hyphenated: 'vinegar-based'. Use a semicolon or separate into two sentences to fix comma splice. Suggestion: include the subject and hyphenate the adjective.
× When I was a child, I preferred snacks to main dishes because I thought snacks tasted better even though they weren't very healthy.
✓ When I was a child, I preferred snacks to main dishes because I thought snacks tasted better, even though they weren't very healthy.
The sentence is mostly correct but needs a comma before the contrasting clause 'even though they weren't very healthy' to improve clarity. No tense change is needed; just punctuation to separate ideas.
× Yes, for example in winter or some cold weather I prefer drinking soups that would make me feel warmer and in summer I would prefer some icy food like ice cream to cool me down.
✓ Yes, for example, in winter or in cold weather I prefer drinking soups that make me feel warmer, and in summer I prefer icy foods like ice cream to cool me down.
Prepositions and articles were inconsistent: use 'in winter' or 'in cold weather' (both need 'in'); 'some cold weather' is unnatural. 'Would make' is unnecessary—use simple present 'make' for habitual actions. 'Would prefer' can be simplified to 'prefer' for general habits. Also pluralize 'food' to 'foods' when giving examples. Add commas for clarity.
× So now I prefer a hearty main dishes such as grilled chicken or omelettes.
✓ So now I prefer hearty main dishes such as grilled chicken or omelettes.
The phrase 'a hearty main dishes' mixes singular article 'a' with plural 'dishes'. Remove 'a' to match plural 'main dishes' or make both singular: 'a hearty main dish such as grilled chicken or an omelette'. Suggestion: choose singular or plural consistently; here removing 'a' is natural.
