What do you usually do in the library?

I go to the library and make notes from uh reference books. Then I also study there because the the environment is very quiet. So I go there and do this.

Examiner

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

No, I didn't go to the library when I was a kid, but there was a mobile library that often came to our area. I used to borrow story books, comics, and specially adventure and uh, fairy tale books which I really enjoyed to read.

I don't think I know about this because I live in Bangladesh. Chinese student might go to library, but I don't know that. But in Bangladesh, uh, generally kids don't go to library, their mobile libraries that come to their area, some of them borrow from those. That's it.

Grammar

Verb + -ing form

× Yes, I often go to the university library for making notes and borrow reference books that help me to understand the subjects better.

Yes, I often go to the university library to make notes and borrow reference books that help me to understand the subjects better.

The phrase 'for making notes' is incorrect because after 'for' we use the gerund form to express purpose, but in this context, 'to make notes' is more appropriate to express intention or purpose. Using 'to make' is clearer and more natural in English, especially in spoken language.

Incorrect use of prepositions

× I go to the library and make notes from uh reference books.

I go to the library and make notes from reference books.

The filler 'uh' is unnecessary and should be omitted for clarity. Also, 'make notes from reference books' is correct; no preposition error here. The correction mainly removes the filler word for better fluency.

Incorrect use of pronouns

× Then I also study there because the the environment is very quiet.

Then I also study there because the environment is very quiet.

There is a repetition of the definite article 'the' which is a typographical error. Removing the extra 'the' corrects the sentence.

Past tense issue

× I used to borrow story books, comics, and specially adventure and uh, fairy tale books which I really enjoyed to read.

I used to borrow story books, comics, and especially adventure and fairy tale books which I really enjoyed reading.

The word 'specially' is incorrect here; the correct adverb is 'especially' to indicate emphasis. Also, 'enjoyed to read' is incorrect; the verb 'enjoy' is followed by the gerund form, so it should be 'enjoyed reading.' The filler 'uh' is removed for clarity.

Singular and plural issue

× Chinese student might go to library, but I don't know that.

Chinese students might go to the library, but I don't know that.

'Student' should be plural 'students' to refer to children in general. Also, 'library' needs the definite article 'the' to specify the place. This correction aligns with standard English usage.

Singular and plural issue

× But in Bangladesh, uh, generally kids don't go to library, their mobile libraries that come to their area, some of them borrow from those.

But in Bangladesh, generally kids don't go to the library; their mobile libraries come to their area, and some of them borrow from those.

The phrase 'go to library' needs the definite article 'the' to be correct. Also, the sentence structure is improved by adding a semicolon and conjunction 'and' to connect ideas properly. The filler 'uh' is removed for clarity.
