× To be honest, I don't visit the library very often nowadays, perhaps once or twice a month, mostly because I can assess many resources online. So it is a less preferable to visit in library in contemporary era.
✓ To be honest, I don't visit the library very often nowadays, perhaps once or twice a month, mostly because I can access many resources online. So it is less preferable to visit the library in the contemporary era.
Errors: 'assess' is the wrong verb; correct verb is 'access' meaning to use resources. 'a less preferable' is unidiomatic; use 'less preferable' without 'a'. Missing article before 'library' in 'visit in library' — should be 'visit the library'. 'in contemporary era' needs the definite article and sounds unnatural; use 'the contemporary era' or better 'today' or 'nowadays' (but 'nowadays' already used). Suggestion: replace 'assess' with 'access', remove 'a', add 'the' before 'library' and 'contemporary era' or rephrase to 'today'.
× Mostly I go there to study or read, but sometimes I use their digital resources and online database which are quite helpful for my research.
✓ Mostly I go there to study or read, but sometimes I use their digital resources and online databases, which are quite helpful for my research.
Error: 'online database' should be plural ('databases') to match 'digital resources' and general usage, and it needs a comma before the relative clause. Also 'their' referring to the library is acceptable. Suggestion: pluralize 'database' and add a comma before 'which'.
× Apart from that, I'm keen in digital resources like making some presentation and notes at the library.
✓ Apart from that, I'm keen on using digital resources to make presentations and take notes at the library.
Errors: Preposition 'keen in' is incorrect; correct collocation is 'keen on'. 'making some presentation' is ungrammatical — use 'making presentations' or 'creating a presentation'. 'notes' should be 'take notes'. Suggestion: use 'keen on', change noun/verb forms to 'using', 'make presentations' and 'take notes' for correct collocation and plurality.
× Yes, I did. I remember going to the local library every weekend with my parents to borrow children's storybooks, which was fantastic and amazing to enhance my knowledge and offers me a new concept of my Supreme Court.
✓ Yes, I did. I remember going to the local library every weekend with my parents to borrow children's storybooks, which was fantastic and helped enhance my knowledge and gave me a new concept of the Supreme Court.
Errors: Mixed tenses and verb forms: 'which was fantastic and amazing to enhance my knowledge and offers me' mixes past and present; make past consistent: 'helped enhance' and 'gave me'. 'offers me a new concept of my Supreme Court' is unclear and probably ungrammatical — changed to 'gave me a new concept of the Supreme Court' but verify intended meaning. Suggestion: keep past tense throughout when describing memories and use consistent verbs ('helped', 'gave'). Clarify 'my Supreme Court' if meaning was different.
× Yes, Chinese children, especially students, often visit libraries. They can assess book journals and online database, which are essential for their studies.
✓ Yes, Chinese children, especially students, often visit libraries. They can access books, journals, and online databases, which are essential for their studies.
Errors: 'assess' is incorrect verb; should be 'access'. 'book journals' is odd — separate 'books' and 'journals'. 'online database' should be plural 'online databases' to match general meaning. Suggestion: replace 'assess' with 'access', separate 'books' and 'journals', and pluralize 'databases'.
