Part 1
Examiner
When do you usually eat snacks now?
Candidate
I usually eat snacks when there's no food in the house or no one has cooked anything. And as someone who don't know how to cook any meal at all, I would munch on snacks to buy sometimes and to reduce my hunger.
Examiner
Do you think it is healthy for you to eat snacks?
Candidate
Honestly it is very unhealthy for me to eat snacks but I just cannot stop eating it because it's very addictive. Snacks taste very good and it's already prepared for you in a package and like proper healthy meals. And as someone who is lazy, I tend to go to snacks more than a proper meals.
Examiner
Did you often eat snacks when you were young?
Candidate
As a kid, I don't eat as much snack as I do right now. For example, when I was a kid, my mom will look after me 24/7 making sure I don't eat unhealthy stuff, especially snacks and candy, which can affect my health. But now as I get older, she's not as controlling anymore. Because I'm an adult I can do things myself so I eat more snacks.
Examiner
What snacks do you like to eat?
Candidate
I really enjoy eating chips because it's crunchy, the texture is just nice and the flavor is on top. You get to choose different flavor from BBQ to pizza to cheese and it's very cheap as well. And that is why I chose chips instead of any other snacks.

The subject 'someone' is singular, so the verb should be 'doesn't' instead of 'don't' to agree in number. In English, singular third person subjects require verbs with 's' or 'es' in the present tense.
× Honestly it is very unhealthy for me to eat snacks but I just cannot stop eating it because it's very addictive.
✓ Honestly it is very unhealthy for me to eat snacks but I just cannot stop eating them because they're very addictive.
The pronoun 'it' is singular but 'snacks' is plural, so the pronoun should be 'them' to correctly refer to the plural noun. Also, 'they're' is used to refer to 'snacks' in plural form.
× Snacks taste very good and it's already prepared for you in a package and like proper healthy meals.
✓ Snacks taste very good and they're already prepared for you in a package, unlike proper healthy meals.
'Snacks' is plural, so the pronoun should be 'they're' instead of 'it's'. Also, 'like' is incorrectly used; 'unlike' is appropriate to contrast snacks with proper healthy meals.
× And as someone who is lazy, I tend to go to snacks more than a proper meals.
✓ And as someone who is lazy, I tend to go to snacks more than proper meals.
The phrase 'a proper meals' is incorrect because 'meals' is plural and cannot be preceded by 'a'. Removing 'a' corrects the quantifier usage.
× As a kid, I don't eat as much snack as I do right now.
✓ As a kid, I didn't eat as much snack as I do right now.
The sentence refers to past time ('As a kid'), so the verb should be in past tense 'didn't eat' instead of present 'don't eat'.
× As a kid, I don't eat as much snack as I do right now.
✓ As a kid, I didn't eat as many snacks as I do right now.
'Snack' should be plural 'snacks' because it refers to countable items. Also, 'many' is used with countable plural nouns instead of 'much'.
× For example, when I was a kid, my mom will look after me 24/7 making sure I don't eat unhealthy stuff, especially snacks and candy, which can affect my health.
✓ For example, when I was a kid, my mom would look after me 24/7 making sure I didn't eat unhealthy stuff, especially snacks and candy, which could affect my health.

× Because I'm an adult I can do things myself so I eat more snacks.
✓ Because I'm an adult, I can do things myself, so I eat more snacks.

'Chips' is plural, so the pronoun should be 'they're' instead of 'it's' to agree in number.
× You get to choose different flavor from BBQ to pizza to cheese and it's very cheap as well.
✓ You get to choose different flavors from BBQ to pizza to cheese, and they're very cheap as well.
'Flavor' should be plural 'flavors' because multiple options are mentioned. Also, 'it's' should be 'they're' to agree with plural 'flavors'.

✓ And that is why I choose chips instead of any other snacks.
