Điểm: 58.0Gợi ý: Câu trả lời cần rõ ràng, mạch lạc và tránh lặp từ. Bắt đầu bằng một câu chủ đề ngắn gọn (ví dụ: “I have several hobbies.”), sau đó nêu từng sở thích với chi tiết cụ thể và lý do kèm liên từ để nối ý. Giữ tổng số câu không quá 4–5 câu và tránh lặp từ như “I enjoy” quá nhiều. Ví dụ cải thiện: nói rõ loại video bạn xem, tần suất, và cách chúng giúp bạn (ví dụ: podcasts, channels, luyện nghe qua phụ đề).
Ví dụ: I have several hobbies. I enjoy learning English by watching educational videos and listening to podcasts because they improve my listening and speaking skills. I usually watch for about an hour every day, focusing on pronunciation and vocabulary. I also enjoy working with children, which helps me practice communication and patience.
Did you have any hobbies when you were a child?

Bắt đầu bằng câu chủ đề ở quá khứ (ví dụ: “When I was a child, I enjoyed singing.”), rồi thêm một hoặc hai chi tiết cụ thể (những bài hát yêu thích, lý do, tần suất) và dùng liên từ để nối các ý. Tránh từ thừa và sửa các lỗi phát âm trong câu.
Ví dụ: When I was a child, I loved singing and I could sing for hours. My favorite songs were children’s nursery rhymes and pop songs, which I learned from TV shows. Singing helped me feel happy and confident, and I still enjoy it today.

Nêu tên chương trình/phim rõ ràng và mô tả chi tiết (tại sao bạn thích, tần suất xem). Giữ câu ngắn gọn, rõ ràng và tránh lỗi từ vựng như “for washing”.
Ví dụ: I have been a fan of Cartoon Network since I was a child and I could spend hours watching cartoons. I especially liked the show Oki because it was exciting and funny. Watching cartoons helped me relax and inspired my imagination.

Ví dụ: Yes, I share that hobby with my family. My parents and older sister enjoy singing, and we often sing together at family gatherings. Hearing them sing encouraged me to practice, so now I sing whenever I have free time.
× In my free time, I enjoy listening, I enjoy, I enjoy learning English and watching these videos.
✓ In my free time, I enjoy listening to and learning English and watching these videos.
The verb 'enjoy' should be followed by a gerund (verb + -ing) and when listing activities with 'listening' you need the preposition 'to' for the object (listening to something). Also remove repetitive 'I enjoy' to make the sentence natural. Suggestion: Use 'enjoy' + gerund and include 'to' after 'listening' when specifying an object.
× It helps, it helps me improve my English and improve my English, especially my listening skills and listening and speaking skills.
✓ It helps me improve my English, especially my listening and speaking skills.
Repetition is unnecessary and the clause should be streamlined. Use 'helps me improve' (verb + base form after 'help') and combine related nouns ('listening and speaking skills') for clarity. Suggestion: Remove repeated phrases and join related items with 'and'.
× When I was right, I I enjoy singing, I can sing all day and until now when I grow up, I still love singing.
✓ When I was a child, I enjoyed singing; I could sing all day, and even now that I am grown up, I still love singing.
Tense consistency: refer to past events with past tense 'enjoyed' and 'could'. Use correct phrase 'when I was a child'. For present state, use present simple 'I still love'. Also correct 'grow up' to 'grown up'. Suggestion: Keep past actions in past tense and present facts in present tense; use standard expressions like 'when I was a child' and 'grown up'.
× Yes and I can remember the song that I have just here.
✓ Yes, and I can remember the song that I just heard.
Incorrect verb choice and word order: 'have just here' is ungrammatical. Use simple past 'heard' after 'just' for a recent action, or present perfect 'have just heard'. Here 'I just heard' fits spoken recollection. Suggestion: Use 'I just heard' or 'I have just heard' and correct word order.
× Uh, I used to a big fan of uh, Cartoon Network, I could spend hours, uh, for washing umm, movies, uh, cartoon movie or Cartoon Network and my favorite movies are uh is Oki uh.
✓ I used to be a big fan of Cartoon Network; I could spend hours watching cartoon movies on Cartoon Network, and my favorite movie is Oki.
'Used to' requires 'be' to show a past habitual state. The verb for viewing is 'watch', so use 'watching' (gerund) after 'spend hours'. Remove unnecessary preposition 'for' and correct singular/plural agreement for 'movie'. Suggestion: Use 'used to be', 'spend hours watching', and ensure subject-verb agreement in 'my favorite movie is'.
× Yes, I do my family members, uh really like uh like singing so I uh, so uh, and I also love singing.
✓ Yes, my family members really like singing, and I also love singing.
Unnecessary insertion of 'I do' before 'my family members' creates a pronoun/subject error. Simplify to a clear subject 'my family members' followed by the verb. Also remove filler words. Suggestion: State the subject clearly and avoid extra auxiliary 'do' unless forming emphasis or a question.
× Maybe I heard them uh sing and then I uh imitate so I also like.
✓ Maybe I heard them sing and then I imitated them, so I also grew to like it.
Tense consistency: hearing and imitating in the past should use past forms 'heard' and 'imitated'. The clause 'so I also like' is unclear; express result in past leading to present preference: 'I also grew to like it' or 'I also came to like it'. Suggestion: Use past tense for past events and clarify the resulting feeling with a full clause.
