Examiner
Do you love stories in your childhood?
Candidate
Yes of course. The reason is I find stories were really useful to learn about their surrounded world, especially the stories about the animal, which is really cute. For example, Migrant Mother usually told me the stories before going to bed.
Examiner
Do you prefer listening to stories or reading them?
Candidate
Definitely listening uh this because I thought I'm a person that can get bored easily when producing the stories because I can catch the concept quickly. So uh, it is really sleepy when read a story.
Examiner
Did you ever write a story when you were a child?
Candidate
Yes, of course. When I was a little girl I was a dog lover, so I wrote many stories about them. More particularly, I wrote a story about two dogs can walk like humans, so in the end they come to each other and heart over, which is really fine.

My favorite stories are definitely about something that are magical. For example, I am a big fan of Harry Potter because I find the way the characters use their words and their power to manipulate those items and to fight each other people is really interesting.

× The reason is I find stories were really useful to learn about their surrounded world, especially the stories about the animal, which is really cute.
✓ The reason is I find stories really useful to learn about their surrounding world, especially the stories about animals, which are really cute.
The phrase 'stories were really useful' incorrectly uses the past participle 'were' after 'find'. The correct form is 'find stories really useful' without 'were'. Also, 'surrounded' should be 'surrounding' as an adjective describing the world. 'The animal' should be plural 'animals' to match the context, and 'which is' should be 'which are' to agree with the plural noun 'animals'.
× For example, Migrant Mother usually told me the stories before going to bed.
✓ For example, Migrant Mother usually told me stories before going to bed.
The article 'the' before 'stories' is unnecessary because it refers to stories in general, not specific ones. Removing 'the' makes the sentence more natural.
× Definitely listening uh this because I thought I'm a person that can get bored easily when producing the stories because I can catch the concept quickly.
✓ Definitely listening to this because I think I'm a person who can get bored easily when producing stories because I can catch the concept quickly.
The phrase 'listening uh this' is incorrect; it should be 'listening to this' because 'listen' requires the preposition 'to'. 'Thought' should be 'think' to match the present tense context. 'That' is better replaced by 'who' when referring to a person. 'The stories' should be 'stories' as a general reference.
× So uh, it is really sleepy when read a story.
✓ So, it is really boring to read a story.
'Sleepy' is an adjective describing a person, not an activity. The correct adjective to describe the activity is 'boring'. Also, 'when read a story' is incorrect; it should be 'to read a story'.
× More particularly, I wrote a story about two dogs can walk like humans, so in the end they come to each other and heart over, which is really fine.
✓ More particularly, I wrote a story about two dogs who can walk like humans, so in the end they come to each other and fall in love, which is really nice.
The phrase 'two dogs can walk' needs a relative pronoun 'who' to connect the clause. 'Heart over' is incorrect; the correct phrase is 'fall in love'. 'Fine' is better replaced by 'nice' to express a positive feeling about the story.
× My favorite stories are definitely about something that are magical.
✓ My favorite stories are definitely about things that are magical.
'Something' is singular and does not agree with the plural verb 'are'. It should be replaced with 'things' to match the plural verb.
× I find the way the characters use their words and their power to manipulate those items and to fight each other people is really interesting.
✓ I find the way the characters use their words and their power to manipulate those items and to fight each other is really interesting.
The phrase 'fight each other people' is incorrect. 'Each other' already implies mutual action between people, so 'people' is redundant and should be removed.
