× My hometown is Beijing, a bustling city or a bustling capital of China.

✓ My hometown is Beijing, a bustling city and the bustling capital of China.

The phrase 'or a bustling capital' is incorrect here because Beijing is both a bustling city and the capital of China, so 'and the' is the correct conjunction and article to use to connect these descriptions.

× Living there you will notice the high cost especially on housing and there is famous for the unique food called the baking dog.

✓ Living there, you will notice the high cost, especially of housing, and it is famous for the unique food called the baking dog.

The preposition 'on' is incorrect after 'cost'; the correct preposition is 'of' when referring to the cost of something. Also, 'there is famous' is incorrect; it should be 'it is famous' to refer to Beijing.

× I have a deep appreciation about my hometown's culture heritage.

✓ I have a deep appreciation for my hometown's cultural heritage.

The verb 'appreciation' is followed by the preposition 'for' rather than 'about'. Also, 'culture heritage' should be 'cultural heritage' as 'cultural' is the correct adjective form.

× It has a rich history and many historical landmarks.

✓ It has a rich history and many historical landmarks.

This sentence is correct; no correction needed.

× There are many museums and culture centers that show our.

✓ There are many museums and cultural centres that showcase our heritage.

The sentence is incomplete and lacks an object after 'show'. Also, 'culture centers' should be 'cultural centres' (British English spelling). Adding 'heritage' completes the meaning.

× I lived there for over 10 years.

✓ I have lived there for over 10 years.

Since the question is 'How long have you lived there?', the present perfect tense 'have lived' is appropriate to indicate an action continuing up to the present.

× I grew up here and have many childhood memories.

✓ I grew up here and have many childhood memories.

This sentence is correct; no correction needed.

× The neighborhood's very friendly and warm hearted and I have many friends here and my family has a deep root in the community.

✓ The neighbourhood is very friendly and warm-hearted, and I have many friends here. My family has deep roots in the community.

'Neighborhood's' should be 'neighbourhood is' for clarity. 'Warm hearted' should be hyphenated as 'warm-hearted'. The sentence is long and should be split for clarity. 'Deep root' should be plural 'deep roots'.

× Absolutely yes, it's an excellent place for young people.

✓ Absolutely, yes, it's an excellent place for young people.

A comma is needed after 'Absolutely' to separate the interjection from the rest of the sentence for clarity.

× It sets numerous education institutions and the very and have very famous teacher here is good for students to learn knowledge and the transportation system is efficient and is convenient.

✓ It has numerous educational institutions and very famous teachers here, which is good for students to learn. The transportation system is efficient and convenient.

'Sets' is incorrect; 'has' is appropriate for possessing institutions. 'Education institutions' should be 'educational institutions'. The phrase 'the very and have very famous teacher here' is ungrammatical and has been corrected to 'very famous teachers here'. 'Learn knowledge' is redundant; 'learn' suffices. The last part is split into two sentences for clarity.
