× Mission District has been broken.
✓ Mission District is broken.
The sentence incorrectly uses 'has been' to describe the current state of Mission District. 'There be' issue applies because the correct form to describe a current state is 'is broken'. 'Has been broken' implies a completed action affecting the present, but here the simple present 'is broken' is more appropriate.
× It is a small city in the central of Vietnam.
✓ It is a small city in the center of Vietnam.
The phrase 'in the central of Vietnam' is incorrect because 'central' is an adjective and needs a noun to modify. The correct noun is 'center'. Therefore, 'in the center of Vietnam' is the proper prepositional phrase.
× In my hometown, I like the natural and people.
✓ In my hometown, I like the nature and the people.
The word 'natural' is an adjective and cannot stand alone as a noun. The correct noun is 'nature'. Also, 'people' should be preceded by 'the' to specify the people of the hometown.
× People eat there are very kind and friendly.
✓ The people who live there are very kind and friendly.
The original sentence has incorrect sentence structure. 'People eat there' is incorrect and confusing. The intended meaning is that the people living there are kind and friendly, so the relative clause 'who live there' is needed.
× I was there since I was a child, so it has been a long time and I have many memories in there.
✓ I have been there since I was a child, so it has been a long time and I have many memories there.
The phrase 'I was there since I was a child' incorrectly uses past tense 'was' instead of present perfect 'have been' to indicate an action continuing from the past to present. Also, 'in there' is unnecessary; 'there' suffices.
× because you said many modern facilities like Sports Center and uh, shopping mall.
✓ because it has many modern facilities like a sports center and a shopping mall.
The phrase 'you said' is incorrect in this context; it should be 'it has' to refer to the hometown. Also, 'Sports Center' and 'shopping mall' need articles 'a' before them. The preposition 'like' is correct here.
