Do you often go to the library?

Well to be honest I never went to a library when I was a kid. It was just a book place. They were selling books and there were international books for yearly. My mom used to take as me and my sisters to the international book fair to get familiar with the books and find our own favorite book.
Examiner
Do Chinese kids often go to the library?
Candidate
Well, I don't have much information about the Chinese kids, but since they're famous with being smart and they really, they're really genius and they're connected with the booth, I, I think that they will go to the libraries more often because whenever I see their videos, they're reading books.

× Well, as everyone else, I prefer to study and read books in a quiet relaxing when no one can interrupt you.
✓ Well, as everyone else, I prefer to study and read books in a quiet, relaxing place where no one can interrupt you.
The phrase 'in a quiet relaxing' is incomplete and incorrect because 'relaxing' is an adjective that needs a noun to modify. Adding 'place' completes the phrase and makes it grammatically correct.
× My mom used to take as me and my sisters to the international book fair to get familiar with the books and find our own favorite book.
✓ My mom used to take me and my sisters to the international book fair to get familiar with the books and find our own favorite book.
The preposition 'as' is incorrectly used here. The correct phrase is 'take me and my sisters' without 'as'. 'Take as me' is ungrammatical.
× It was just a book place.
✓ It was just a bookstore.
The phrase 'book place' is awkward and unidiomatic. The correct term is 'bookstore' to refer to a place where books are sold.
× They were selling books and there were international books for yearly.
✓ They were selling books and there were international books yearly.
The phrase 'for yearly' is incorrect. 'Yearly' is an adverb and should not be preceded by 'for'. Removing 'for' corrects the sentence.
× Well, I don't have much information about the Chinese kids, but since they're famous with being smart and they really, they're really genius and they're connected with the booth, I, I think that they will go to the libraries more often because whenever I see their videos, they're reading books.

Several pronoun and word choice errors: 'famous with' should be 'famous for'; 'they really, they're really genius' is redundant and 'genius' should be plural 'geniuses' to agree with plural subject; 'connected with the booth' is unclear and likely meant 'connected with books'. Removing repeated words and correcting these improves clarity and grammar.
