Do you like taking pictures of different views?
Điểm: 42.0Gợi ý: Be clearer and more natural. Start with a direct topic sentence that answers the question (yes/no), then give one or two specific reasons with linking words. Avoid fillers (uh, um) and contradictory words ("I don't like beautiful things" then talk about keeping memories). Use precise vocabulary like "scenery", "memorable moments" and keep to 2–4 sentences.
Ví dụ: Yes, I do enjoy taking pictures of different views because scenery helps me remember special moments. For example, I often photograph sunsets and rivers when I travel, and later I rewatch those photos to recall the trip. Overall, photography helps me preserve memories of places I loved.
Do you prefer views in urban areas or rural areas?
Điểm: 50.0Gợi ý: Be grammatically correct and specific. Begin with a clear topic sentence stating the preference, use linking words (because, for example) and give concrete details (types of scenery, activities). Correct vocabulary errors ("pain" -> probably "plain" or "pine"; choose the correct word). Keep answer within 2–4 sentences.
Ví dụ: I prefer rural areas because they have natural scenery and peaceful surroundings. For example, I enjoy walking beside rivers and fields of flowers where I can relax and take photos. Rural landscapes feel calmer than busy cities, so I spend more time outdoors there.
Do you prefer views in your own country or in other countries?
Điểm: 48.0Gợi ý: Answer directly and organize ideas logically. Start with a clear statement (I prefer views in other countries / both) then explain why with specific comparisons and linking words (because, for example, whereas). Avoid unclear words and grammatical mistakes ("I flee" -> "I feel"; "more greener" -> "greener"). Keep to 2–4 sentences.
Ví dụ: I prefer views in other countries because they often offer different landscapes. For instance, living in Canada I find the countryside greener and with more lakes compared with my home country, so I enjoy exploring those new natural scenes. However, I also appreciate familiar views at home for their cultural value.
× I don't like beautiful things, uh, specifically, uh, picturesque views and something which is more, uh, laughable, uh, because it, I can keep them in memories and rewatch them and.
✓ I don't like taking pictures of beautiful things; specifically, I prefer picturesque views and things that are more memorable, because I can keep them in my memory and look back at them.
The original sentence misused 'laughable' (wrong adjective) and had awkward phrasing. Use 'memorable' instead of 'laughable' to convey something worth remembering. Replace 'something which is more' with 'things that are' for correct clause structure. 'Keep them in memories' is incorrect; use 'keep them in my memory' or 'remember them'. Also streamline filler words and punctuation for clarity.
× I prefer using rural area as rural areas has natural scenery, lots of pain and beautiful waterways.
✓ I prefer rural areas because they have natural scenery, many plains, and beautiful waterways.
Problems: 'prefer using rural area' is unnatural; 'prefer rural areas' is correct. Subject-verb agreement: 'rural areas has' should be 'rural areas have'. 'Lots of pain' is a typo for 'lots of plain(s)' or 'plains'; correct to 'many plains'. Also use 'because' to join clauses properly.
× I like to stay in the naturally beautiful area surrounded by flowers and so rural India is.
✓ I like to stay in naturally beautiful areas surrounded by flowers, so rural India is ideal for me.
The original sentence is fragmented and word order is awkward. 'The naturally beautiful area' should be plural or generalized 'naturally beautiful areas'. Add a main clause like 'so rural India is ideal for me' to complete the thought and correct flow.
× I flee all the countries have their pros and cons and have different views so I prefer from my perspective from other country is more picturesque.
✓ I feel all countries have their pros and cons and offer different views, so from my perspective, other countries are often more picturesque.
'Flee' is incorrect verb; should be 'feel'. Sentence also has pronoun and reference issues: 'I prefer from my perspective from other country is more picturesque' is ungrammatical. Rephrase to 'from my perspective, other countries are often more picturesque' to make subject and verb agree and clarify viewpoint.
× As I'm living in Canada right now, it's more greener than my country and more water.
✓ As I'm living in Canada right now, it is greener than my country and has more water.
Comparative error: 'more greener' is incorrect because 'greener' already expresses comparison; use 'greener' without 'more'. Also 'more water' needs a verb: 'has more water' to form a complete clause. Maintain present continuous for 'I'm living' and simple present for comparisons.
