Score: 60.0Suggestion: Your answer addresses the question but lacks clarity and contains grammatical mistakes, such as 'She always write to the library before me before then me'.

Score: 70.0Suggestion: Your answer is relevant and provides reasons, but it has some repetition and awkward phrasing ('the reading is a good skill that I had to improve'). To improve, try to express ideas more naturally and avoid repeating words unnecessarily. Also, use linking words to connect your ideas smoothly.

My grandmother encouraged me because she believed that improving my reading skills would help me find better job opportunities in the future."

Use linking words to organise your ideas and correct verb tenses. For example: "I'm not sure if Chinese children often go to the library. However, I remember a classmate from Shanghai who loved reading and probably visited the library regularly."

× I I really enjoy spending my time at the library, especially when I have a lot of free time.
✓ I really enjoy spending my time at the library, especially when I have a lot of free time.
The repetition of 'I' is a sentence structure error causing redundancy and confusion. Removing the extra 'I' improves clarity and correctness.
× I really like to buy books, especially the the crimes, the crimes ones.
✓ I really like to buy books, especially the crime ones.
The phrase 'the the crimes, the crimes ones' is incorrect due to repeated definite articles and incorrect plural form. 'Crime' should be singular as an adjective describing 'ones'. Removing duplicates and correcting the noun form improves the sentence.
× When I arrive at the library, I usually go to sit.
✓ When I arrive at the library, I usually go to sit down.
The phrase 'go to sit' is incomplete and awkward. Adding 'down' completes the phrasal verb 'sit down', making the sentence grammatically correct and natural.
× She always write to the library before me before then me and then we just have a little chat and we start reading the books that we choose.
✓ She always writes to the library before me, and then we just have a little chat and start reading the books that we choose.
The verb 'write' does not agree with the third person singular subject 'She'. It should be 'writes'. Also, the sentence is run-on and needs proper punctuation and conjunctions for clarity.
× She likes math books and I like Crime's book.
✓ She likes math books and I like crime books.
'Crime's book' is incorrect; 'crime' should be used as an adjective without possessive form, and 'books' should be plural to match 'math books'. This correction aligns the nouns properly.
× Because also with the with the reading skills I could have the opportunity to find a better job because in many works everything is is is necessary.
✓ Also, with reading skills, I could have the opportunity to find a better job because in many jobs everything is necessary.
The phrase 'in many works' is incorrect; 'works' should be 'jobs' to mean employment. The repeated 'is is is' is a typographical error. Simplifying and correcting these improves clarity and correctness.
× Actually, I don't have idea if they often go to the library, but I remember when I was trying to, I usually go to school and I had a classmate and he was from, he came from Shanghai and he always liked to read, so maybe he also go often went to the library.
✓ Actually, I don't have an idea if they often go to the library, but I remember when I was young, I usually went to school and I had a classmate who came from Shanghai and he always liked to read, so maybe he also often went to the library.
The phrase 'I don't have idea' lacks the article 'an'. 'When I was trying to' is unclear and likely meant 'when I was young'. The verb tense 'go often went' is incorrect; it should be 'often went'. Also, 'who' is the correct relative pronoun for people. These corrections improve grammatical accuracy and clarity.
