Part 1

Examiner

Do you often go to the library?

Candidate

Yeah, I, I would say, I wouldn't say it's as often I as I wanna go, but I used to go once a week on Saturdays with my sister and my friends. There's this really cool library that's found pretty far from my house and I really like it.

Examiner

What do you usually do in the library?

Candidate

So it might be funny but with my sister we used to only go there for the free Internet since we were not allowed to have them or to like have Internet in the house. And we used to tell my parents to go to the library just to see YouTube and stuff like that. But I really do enjoy it though.

Examiner

Did you go to the library when you were a kid?

Candidate

No, I actually never went to the library. Umm, yeah, I I never thought about the library that way, but I used to read at home at that time, so I didn't really go to the library when I was a kid.

Examiner

Do Chinese kids often go to the library?

Candidate

I, I don't know how to answer that question, but I, I'd say they do. Umm, I really don't have any Chinese friends, so I don't know how you know, like I don't know if they go or not, but I feel like Chinese kids are really smart, so I think they do.

Grammar

Singular and plural issue

× I wouldn't say it's as often I as I wanna go

I wouldn't say I go as often as I want to

The original sentence has incorrect word order and missing verb forms, causing confusion in expressing frequency. The correction rearranges the sentence to the correct comparative structure 'as often as' and uses the correct verb forms 'I go' and 'I want to' for clarity.

Incorrect use of pronouns

× There's this really cool library that's found pretty far from my house

There's this really cool library that's located pretty far from my house

The phrase 'that's found' is awkward and less natural in this context. Using 'that's located' is more appropriate to describe the position of the library. This improves clarity and naturalness of the sentence.

Incorrect use of pronouns

× with my sister we used to only go there for the free Internet since we were not allowed to have them or to like have Internet in the house

with my sister we used to only go there for the free Internet since we were not allowed to have it or to have Internet in the house

The pronoun 'them' is incorrectly used to refer to 'Internet', which is uncountable and singular. The correct pronoun is 'it'. Also, 'to like have Internet' is informal and unnecessary; 'to have Internet' suffices.

Incorrect use of pronouns

× we used to tell my parents to go to the library just to see YouTube and stuff like that

we used to tell my parents we were going to the library just to watch YouTube and stuff like that

The original sentence incorrectly suggests telling parents to go to the library. The correction clarifies that they told parents about their own visit. Also, 'see YouTube' is unnatural; 'watch YouTube' is correct.

Past tense issue

× No, I actually never went to the library

No, I actually have never gone to the library

Using present perfect 'have never gone' is more appropriate here to express experience up to now, especially since the question is about childhood experience. 'Never went' is simple past and less suitable for this context.

Incorrect use of pronouns

× I don't know how you know, like I don't know if they go or not

I don't know, like, if they go or not

The phrase 'I don't know how you know' is confusing and unnecessary. Simplifying to 'I don't know, like, if they go or not' improves clarity and correctness.
