Do you prefer the mountains or the sea?
Thí sinh
I prefer the sea because I love swimming, it's my favorite hobby and I find that ocean very refreshing. I usually visit the north of our country, for example, a city called Tanji on the Atlantic Coast, where I can relax with my family and enjoy the stunning views and fresh sea air. OK.

Điểm: 64.0Gợi ý: Corrigez la prononciation et la grammaire, et rendez la réponse plus naturelle et concise. Par exemple, évitez des erreurs comme « lock out » (devrait être « look out »), accord des temps et formes (« I really enjoyed the pictures » → « I really enjoy the views »), et des fautes d’orthographe/accord (« made me fell or laxed » → « made me feel relaxed and inspired »).

× I often lock out the window because I really enjoyed the pictures, picturesque scenery.
✓ I often look out of the window because I really enjoy the picturesque scenery.
The sentence contains multiple issues: 'lock' should be 'look' (word choice) and 'look out the window' requires the preposition 'out of' or 'out' with 'of' optional in spoken English; tense consistency: 'enjoyed' should be 'enjoy' to match the present habitual action 'I often look'; 'picturesque scenery' should follow 'enjoy' as an adjective-noun phrase. Suggestion: use 'I often look out of the window because I really enjoy the picturesque scenery.' Use present simple for habitual actions and correct verb form 'look.'
× For example, last year I went to the western Morocco and I was fascinated by the contrasting landscapes and dramatic coastal views which made me fell or laxed and inspired.
✓ For example, last year I went to western Morocco and I was fascinated by the contrasting landscapes and dramatic coastal views, which made me feel relaxed and inspired.
Errors: 'the western Morocco' should be 'western Morocco' (article error/word order); 'fell' is incorrect — the past participle 'feel' forms 'feel' in causative structures but here the correct past-tense effect is 'made me feel'; 'laxed' is not a correct adjective — use 'relaxed.' Also add a comma before 'which' for clarity. Suggestion: use 'made me feel relaxed and inspired.' Maintain past tense 'went' and 'was fascinated.'
× Yes, I take photos of the scenery from the car to keep memories of my trips, especially coastal views.
✓ Yes, I take photos of the scenery from the car to keep memories of my trips, especially of coastal views.
Minor preposition omission: 'especially coastal views' is understandable but more natural is 'especially of coastal views' or 'especially the coastal views.' Suggestion: add 'of' to link 'especially' with the noun phrase or rephrase as 'especially the coastal views.' Present simple is correct for habitual action.
× For example, when I drive along the coast, I often photograph the sea and cliffs so I can look back at those pictures later and remember the good places.
✓ For example, when I drive along the coast, I often photograph the sea and cliffs so I can look back at those pictures later and remember the beautiful places.
Word choice: 'good places' is grammatically acceptable but 'beautiful places' or 'pleasant places' is more natural for scenery. Grammar is otherwise correct: present simple for habitual action and 'can' for ability. Suggestion: replace vague adjective with a more descriptive one.
× I prefer the sea because I love swimming, it's my favorite hobby and I find that ocean very refreshing.
✓ I prefer the sea because I love swimming; it's my favorite hobby and I find the ocean very refreshing.
Article and punctuation: 'that ocean' is odd — use 'the ocean' to refer to the ocean in general. Also join clauses with a semicolon or period rather than a comma splice. Suggestion: use 'the ocean' for general reference and correct punctuation.
× I usually visit the north of our country, for example, a city called Tanji on the Atlantic Coast, where I can relax with my family and enjoy the stunning views and fresh sea air.
✓ I usually visit the north of our country; for example, a city called Tanji on the Atlantic Coast, where I can relax with my family and enjoy the stunning views and fresh sea air.
Grammar is mostly correct; change comma splicing by using a semicolon or split into two sentences. Prepositions are fine. Suggestion: separate clauses for clarity: 'I usually visit the north of our country. For example, I go to a city called Tanji on the Atlantic Coast...'
