What is your favourite food?
分數: 60.0建議: Câu trả lời chưa rõ ràng ở câu chủ đề (topic sentence), có lỗi ngữ pháp và lặp ý. Nên mở đầu trực tiếp: nêu tên món ăn, sau đó mô tả lý do cụ thể bằng 1–2 câu bổ sung, dùng liên từ để nối ý và tránh câu quá dài. Chú ý ngữ pháp (ví dụ: “My favourite food is X” chứ không phải “My favorite food is I love it”) và từ vựng miêu tả cụ thể hơn (texture, flavour).
範例: My favourite food is grilled pork with rice. I like it because the pork is savory with a hint of sweetness, and the dipping sauce is tangy and aromatic with fresh herbs. I often eat it with friends at a street food stall, which makes the meal more enjoyable.

× My favorite food is I love it because the good pork is savory and slightly sweet, and the dipping sauce is tangy and fragrant with fresh herbs. I often eat it with my friends at a sweet stall.
✓ My favorite food is pork. I love it because the pork is savory and slightly sweet, and the dipping sauce is tangy and fragrant with fresh herbs. I often eat it with my friends at a street stall.
The original combines two clauses incorrectly, causing a sentence fragment and unclear subject reference. Split into clear sentences: state the favorite food ('My favorite food is pork.') then explain why. Replace 'the good pork' with 'the pork' for natural noun use. 'Sweet stall' is likely a mistranslation; 'street stall' is appropriate. Suggestions: keep one main idea per sentence, ensure subject and verb match, and use natural collocations (e.g., 'street stall').
× When I was young, I would like to eat. Spring rolls, because that is kind of fascinating, at least for me, 'cause I was always attracted by spring rolls.
✓ When I was young, I liked to eat spring rolls because they were fascinating to me; I was always attracted to them.
The tense and modal use is incorrect: 'would like to eat' conflicts with past time marker 'When I was young.' Use simple past 'liked' for past habits. The sentence fragment 'Spring rolls,' must be joined to the clause. Use 'they were' to refer to plural 'spring rolls' and 'attracted to them' is the correct idiom. Suggestions: use simple past for past habits and ensure pronouns agree with plural nouns. Note: This correction addresses 'Past tense issue' and 'Incorrect use of pronouns'."
× It depends on the season. For example, in winter I usually eat hot soups and stews because they are comforting and keeping warm, while in summer I prefer light salads and fruits to stay cool.
✓ It depends on the season. For example, in winter I usually eat hot soups and stews because they are comforting and keep me warm, while in summer I prefer light salads and fruit to stay cool.
Mixing progressive and stative verbs caused an error: 'comforting and keeping warm' is ungrammatical. Use parallel structure 'are comforting and keep me warm.' Also 'fruits' in this context is better as uncountable 'fruit.' Suggestions: maintain parallel verb forms and use correct collocations (e.g., 'keep me warm', 'fruit').
