Pontuação: 55.0Sugestão: Your answer communicates the main idea but has problems with clarity, grammar and redundancy. Improve by using a clear topic sentence, correct tense and pronoun use, and avoiding repetition. Keep to 2–4 concise sentences and use a linking word when shifting from past habit to present preference. For example, begin with "I used to..." then link with "but now..." Provide a short reason (specific) for the change.
Exemplo: I used to take photos of tall buildings when I was a child because their height and design fascinated me. However, now I prefer photographing people and street scenes because they feel more lively and tell a story.
Is there a building that you would like to visit?
Pontuação: 70.0Sugestão: Your answer is relevant and direct but contains repetition and limited detail. Improve by adding a linking phrase and one specific reason or detail about why it attracts you (e.g., view, architecture, engineering). Keep it to 2–3 sentences and avoid repeating phrases like "in the world" twice.
Exemplo: Yes, I would like to visit the Burj Khalifa in Dubai because it is the tallest building in the world. I am keen to see its unique design and enjoy the panoramic view from the observation deck.
× To be honest, when I was very young in my childhood, I would take photos of taller buildings, uh because I often find them most inter MO more interesting.
✓ To be honest, when I was very young, I used to take photos of tall buildings because I often found them more interesting.
The sentence mixes past habits and present tense incorrectly. Use 'used to' or 'would' with base verb form for past habitual actions and keep verbs in past tense for consistency. 'Taller buildings' is comparative without reference; 'tall buildings' is better. Remove filler sounds and repeated or incorrect words like 'inter MO'. Suggestion: say 'used to take' and 'found' to maintain past-tense narrative.
× But as we grew, as I grew older, I would prefer to take photos, not take photos of building.
✓ But as I grew older, I preferred to take photos of things other than buildings.
The clause 'would prefer' is incorrectly used for a past change; use past tense 'preferred' to match 'grew older'. Also 'not take photos of building' has singular noun without article; use 'buildings' or 'a building'. Rephrasing to 'things other than buildings' improves clarity and correctness.
× Yes, the building I would like to visit is Burj Khalifa in Dubai.
✓ Yes, the building I would like to visit is the Burj Khalifa in Dubai.
Proper nouns for famous buildings usually take the definite article 'the' (the Burj Khalifa). Including 'the' is natural in English when referring to a specific landmark. Keep tense present since this is a present desire.
× It's because it's the tallest building in the world in the world, so it definitely attracts my attention.
✓ It's because it's the tallest building in the world, so it definitely attracts my attention.
The phrase 'in the world' is unnecessarily repeated; this is a sentence structure/redundancy error. Remove the duplicated phrase to make the sentence concise and grammatically correct. The rest of the sentence is fine in present tense as it expresses a general truth.
