Do you have a hobby that you've had since childhood?
分數: 66.0建議: Content is relevant but vocabulary and some phrases are unclear or incorrect (e.g., 'quantum barrier novels' likely wrong, plural/singular agreement).

分數: 52.0建議: Clarify meaning and correct grammar: avoid unclear phrases like 'you don't sell the same hobby.' Use present simple for routines (e.g., 'My father enjoys gardening').

× Yes, I have a few hobby.
✓ Yes, I have a few hobbies.
The noun 'hobby' is countable and the plural form 'hobbies' must be used after 'a few'. Use 'a few' with plural nouns. Suggestion: say 'a few hobbies' or 'a hobby' depending on intended meaning.
× I especially enjoy reading because it's helped me unwind after a long day at the office and I often choose historical novel to learn more about the past.
✓ I especially enjoy reading because it helps me unwind after a long day at the office and I often choose historical novels to learn more about the past.
Two errors: 'it's helped' (present perfect) is inconsistent with general habitual statement; use simple present 'it helps' for habitual effect. Also 'historical novel' should be plural 'historical novels' after 'choose' when speaking generally. Suggestion: use simple present for habits and plural for general choices.
× I also like listening to the music to relax and I sometime being a watch ATV series on Netflix at the weekend.
✓ I also like listening to music to relax and I sometimes watch ATV series on Netflix at the weekend.
Do not use the definite article 'the' before uncountable abstract 'music' when speaking generally. 'Sometime' is incorrect; use adverb 'sometimes'. 'Being a watch' is ungrammatical: use simple verb 'watch'. Suggestion: 'listening to music' and 'sometimes watch'.
× When I was a child, I often spend my time swimming with my friend in our nearby river near our village in Roseville.
✓ When I was a child, I often spent my time swimming with my friend in the nearby river near our village in Roseville.
The sentence refers to repeated past actions, so use past simple 'spent' not 'spend'. Also 'nearby river' needs an article 'the nearby river' when referring to a specific river. Suggestion: use past simple for habitual past actions and include appropriate articles.
× It was a lot of fun and very memorable experience because we swam there almost every afternoon during the holiday.
✓ It was a lot of fun and a very memorable experience because we swam there almost every afternoon during the holidays.
Countable noun 'experience' needs the article 'a'. 'Holiday' in this context (repeated or a period) should be plural 'holidays' or 'the holidays'. Suggestion: include 'a' before 'very memorable experience' and use 'holidays'.
× I have loved reading since I was a child.
✓ I have loved reading since I was a child.
This sentence is grammatically correct. It uses present perfect to describe an action that began in the past and continues to the present. No correction needed.
× I especially enjoy quantum barrier novels because they mirror everyday life and broaden my understanding of other people experience and viewpoints.
✓ I especially enjoy quantum barrier novels because they mirror everyday life and broaden my understanding of other people's experiences and viewpoints.
Possessive form 'other people's' is required to show ownership of 'experiences'. 'Experience' should be plural when referring to multiple people's experiences. Suggestion: use the possessive and plural form.
× For example, I recently read a book about a family that move into another towns.
✓ For example, I recently read a book about a family that moved into another town.
'Move' should be past simple 'moved' to match 'recently read' (past action). 'Towns' should be singular 'town' after 'another'. Suggestion: match past tense and use singular after 'another'.
× And now you don't sell the same hobby.
✓ No, we don't share the same hobbies now.
Original is ungrammatical and unclear. 'And now you don't sell the same hobby' wrongly uses 'sell' and second-person 'you'. The intended meaning is that family members do not have the same hobbies; use 'we don't share the same hobbies now'. Suggestion: rephrase to 'we don't share the same hobbies'.
× My father enjoyed gardening and my mother like cooking, while I prefer reading.
✓ My father enjoys gardening and my mother likes cooking, while I prefer reading.
If describing current habitual hobbies, use simple present 'enjoys' and 'likes'. 'My mother like' is subject-verb disagreement; for third person singular add -s. Suggestion: use present tense and correct agreement.
× But I often spend time together sharing story and discussing books.
✓ But we often spend time together sharing stories and discussing books.
Missing subject 'we' makes the sentence unclear; use plural 'stories' and include 'we' to indicate who spends time together. Suggestion: add subject and pluralize 'story'.
