Part 1

Examiner

Do you like taking pictures of different views?

Candidate

I'm enthused about this thing. Whenever see a good view, I prefer taking pictures and keeping it as a memory.

Examiner

Do you prefer views in urban areas or rural areas?

Candidate

Honestly, it uh, I do not have a preference in this. Wherever I go, if I see a good view, it's either it's natural, it's city view, it's night view. Regardless of what kind of view it is, if it mesmerizes me, I prefer to capture it.

Examiner

Do you prefer views in your own country or in other countries?

Candidate

By now I have already explored my country enough, so I'd say that foreign countries are the priority and aim for me now that I just explore them and see the views over there.

Part 1

Do you like taking pictures of different views?

Score: 74.0

Suggestion: Make the answer more natural and grammatical: start with a clear topic sentence, avoid vague phrasing, and add one specific detail using a linking word. Keep it under five sentences.

Example: Yes, I love taking photos of interesting views. For example, when I visit coastal areas I often photograph the sunrise because the colours and reflections are memorable, so I keep them to look back on later.

Do you prefer views in urban areas or rural areas?

Score: 68.0

Suggestion: Remove hesitations and repetition, give a clear topic sentence, then add one or two specific contrasting examples using linking words to show coherence.

Example: I don't have a strong preference between urban and rural views. For instance, I enjoy city skylines at night because of the lights, but I also like countryside landscapes for their peaceful atmosphere, so I photograph both depending on the moment.

Do you prefer views in your own country or in other countries?

Score: 72.0

Suggestion: Make the sentence structure clearer and more natural: give a direct topic sentence, then explain briefly why with a specific reason and an example. Avoid awkward phrasing like 'priority and aim' and keep it concise.

Example: I prefer photographing views in other countries at the moment because I want to discover new landscapes and cultures. For example, I recently planned a trip to Japan specifically to capture its temples and seasonal scenery, which are very different from what I see at home.

Grammar

Sentence structure errors

× I'm enthused about this thing.

I'm enthusiastic about this.

The original uses 'enthused' (less common as adjective) and 'this thing' is vague and awkward. Use the adjective 'enthusiastic' and a clearer phrase 'about this' to sound natural and grammatically correct. Suggestion: use common adjective forms and avoid vague nouns.

Verb in the present participle form

× Whenever see a good view, I prefer taking pictures and keeping it as a memory.

Whenever I see a good view, I prefer to take pictures and keep them as memories.

The sentence is missing the subject 'I' before 'see' (sentence structure/subject-verb). 'Prefer taking' is acceptable but 'prefer to take' is more natural. 'Keeping it as a memory' has pronoun number mismatch: 'pictures' is plural, so use 'them' and 'memories'. Suggestion: include the subject, match plural pronouns, and use infinitive for preference verbs.

Sentence structure errors

× Honestly, it uh, I do not have a preference in this.

Honestly, I do not have a preference about this.

The filler 'it uh' interrupts the sentence and should be removed in written form. Preposition 'in' is not the best collocation here; use 'about' or 'regarding'. Suggestion: remove filler words and use correct preposition 'about'.

Verb in the present participle form

× Wherever I go, if I see a good view, it's either it's natural, it's city view, it's night view.

Wherever I go, if I see a good view, it might be a natural scene, a city view, or a night view.

Repetition 'it's either it's' is ungrammatical. Use 'it might be' and list items with parallel noun phrases. Also use articles 'a' for countable noun phrases. Suggestion: avoid redundant 'it's' and maintain parallel structure with proper articles.

Sentence structure errors

× Regardless of what kind of view it is, if it mesmerizes me, I prefer to capture it.

Regardless of what kind of view it is, if it mesmerizes me, I prefer to capture it in a photo.

Original is mostly acceptable but 'capture it' is vague; adding 'in a photo' clarifies capturing a view. Suggestion: add clarifying phrase to fit the question about taking pictures.

Present tense issue

× By now I have already explored my country enough, so I'd say that foreign countries are the priority and aim for me now that I just explore them and see the views over there.

By now I have already explored my country enough, so I'd say that foreign countries are my priority now, and I want to explore them and see the views there.

The original mixes awkward phrasing 'are the priority and aim for me now that I just explore them' and uses present continuous 'just explore' incorrectly. Rephrase to 'are my priority now' and use 'want to explore' to express current intention. Also 'over there' is unnecessary; 'there' suffices. Suggestion: simplify structure, use 'want to' for intention, and place adjectives/phrases in natural order.
