Grammar

Verb + -ing form

× It usually rains heavily during July and August, which help the crops grow and cool down the temperature.

It usually rains heavily during July and August, which helps the crops grow and cool down the temperature.

The relative pronoun 'which' refers to 'It' (the rain), which is singular, so the verb should be 'helps' to agree in number. Using 'help' is incorrect here because it does not agree with the singular subject.

Incorrect use of pronouns

× As I am much into the hot weather, there are a number of reasons behind my consideration, but I like it especially because in the hot weather we can do a number of outdoor activities which is not possible in the cold weather, for example, playing cricket.

As I am much into the hot weather, there are a number of reasons behind my consideration, but I like it especially because in the hot weather we can do a number of outdoor activities which are not possible in the cold weather, for example, playing cricket.

The relative pronoun 'which' refers to 'a number of outdoor activities', which is plural, so the verb should be 'are' instead of 'is'. Using 'is' here is incorrect because it does not agree with the plural noun.

Incorrect use of prepositions

× I like to live in a wet weather because in wet weather we can do a number of activities like playing in rain and in raining we can also see nature at its peak beauty.

I like to live in wet weather because in wet weather we can do a number of activities like playing in the rain and when it is raining we can also see nature at its peak beauty.

The phrase 'playing in rain' requires the definite article 'the' before 'rain' to be grammatically correct. Also, 'in raining' is incorrect; the correct expression is 'when it is raining' to indicate the time during rain.

Incorrect use of pronouns

× Yes, I have a habit of weather checking as whenever I have to do any outdoor activity, I check the weather forecast before going outside as it helps me to overcome the many problems.

Yes, I have a habit of checking the weather as whenever I have to do any outdoor activity, I check the weather forecast before going outside as it helps me to avoid many problems.

The phrase 'habit of weather checking' is awkward; the correct form is 'habit of checking the weather'. Also, 'overcome the many problems' is not appropriate here; 'avoid many problems' fits better in this context.

Past tense issue

× Climate had experienced a number of changed over the years as nowadays we have to experience more rainy weather as compared to the past.

Climate has experienced a number of changes over the years as nowadays we experience more rainy weather compared to the past.

The past perfect tense 'had experienced' is incorrect here because the sentence refers to a period continuing to the present; present perfect 'has experienced' is appropriate. Also, 'changed' should be the noun 'changes'. The phrase 'have to experience' is awkward; simple present 'experience' is better.

Singular and plural issue

× Yes, as I have a hobby of traveling, I like to visit city Shimla as it was my dream to visit there because of its beauty and it is also known for many places such as the church which is situated in Shimla.

Yes, as I have a hobby of traveling, I like to visit the city Shimla as it has been my dream to visit there because of its beauty and it is also known for many places such as the church which is situated in Shimla.

The phrase 'visit city Shimla' requires the definite article 'the' before 'city'. Also, 'it was my dream' should be 'it has been my dream' to express a continuing desire. These corrections improve grammatical accuracy and clarity.
