Are you a patient person?
Thí sinh
Oh, to be honest, I'm not really a patient person. I'm like a straightforward person and usually like to be reckless and careless. As a result, I'm always messed up so many things, but I just couldn't change it, you know? It's just like a habit and really curve.

How do you feel when you have to do something for a long time?
Thí sinh
It depends on how important the task is. If it's something minor, I usually do not feel very stressed or anxious because it does not have serious consequences. However, if the task is a urgent and important, I tend to feel quite stressed because I want to complete it successfully and on time.

× I'm always messed up so many things, but I just couldn't change it, you know?
✓ I'm always messing up so many things, but I just can't change it, you know?
The phrase 'messed up so many things' incorrectly uses the past tense 'messed' instead of the present participle 'messing' to describe a habitual action. Also, 'couldn't' should be 'can't' to match the present tense context. The correction uses the present participle to indicate ongoing action and present tense for inability to change.
× It's just like a habit and really curve.
✓ It's just like a habit and really hard to change.
The word 'curve' is incorrectly used as an adjective here. The intended meaning is likely 'hard to change' or 'difficult to break.' Replacing 'curve' with 'hard to change' clarifies the meaning and corrects the adjective misuse.
× many problems will pop out in the future which cause great concern to me.
✓ many problems will pop up in the future which cause great concern to me.
The phrasal verb 'pop out' is incorrect in this context; the correct expression is 'pop up' meaning 'to appear unexpectedly.' Using 'pop up' improves the naturalness and correctness of the sentence.
× if the task is a urgent and important, I tend to feel quite stressed
✓ if the task is urgent and important, I tend to feel quite stressed
The article 'a' is incorrectly used before 'urgent' which starts with a vowel sound. Also, 'a' is unnecessary before the adjectives 'urgent and important' when used together. Removing 'a' corrects the article usage.
× I'm a cost mad monitor so I need to patient about every announcement so that I could tell my classmates correctly and guide them how to.
✓ I'm a class monitor so I need to be patient about every announcement so that I can tell my classmates correctly and guide them on how to.
'cost mad monitor' is a mishearing or typo for 'class monitor.' Also, 'need to patient' should be 'need to be patient' to use the correct verb form. 'could' should be 'can' to express present ability. 'guide them how to' is incomplete; 'guide them on how to' is correct.
× I have more safe control and self-discipline than when I was a child
✓ I have more self-control and self-discipline than when I was a child
The phrase 'safe control' is incorrect; the correct term is 'self-control.' This correction replaces the incorrect adjective 'safe' with the correct compound noun 'self-control'.
