× My hometown is more village in Kampung Jam province, which is located about 150 kilometers from the provincial capital.
✓ My hometown is a small village in Kampung Jam province, which is located about 150 kilometers from the provincial capital.
The phrase 'more village' is incorrect because 'village' is a noun, not an adjective or adverb. The correct adjective to describe the size or type of the hometown is 'small'. Use 'a small village' to properly describe the hometown.
× I enjoy spending time outdoors surrounded by a green tree.
✓ I enjoy spending time outdoors surrounded by green trees.
The use of 'a green tree' is incorrect here because it suggests only one tree, which is unlikely in this context. The plural 'green trees' better fits the idea of being surrounded by nature.
× Forest and plants with help me relax and refresh.
✓ The forest and plants help me relax and refresh.
The original sentence has incorrect word order and missing articles. 'Forest and plants with help me' is ungrammatical. The correct sentence includes the definite article 'The' and correct verb placement: 'The forest and plants help me relax and refresh.'
× Because of the fearful environment, I often miss my friends and other friendly people.
✓ Because of the peaceful environment, I often miss my friends and other friendly people.
The word 'fearful' is incorrect here; it means 'full of fear' which does not fit the context. The intended meaning is likely 'peaceful' or 'pleasant'. Using 'peaceful environment' correctly conveys the intended meaning.
× I live in my hometown for 20 years before moving to my current address in the town.
✓ I lived in my hometown for 20 years before moving to my current address in the town.
The action happened in the past, so the past tense 'lived' should be used instead of the present tense 'live'.
× having family gathering.
✓ having family gatherings.
'Family gathering' should be plural 'family gatherings' to indicate multiple occasions, which fits better with the context of recalling childhood memories.
× Those moments were very special and helped me be a strong relationship with other people around me.
✓ Those moments were very special and helped me build strong relationships with other people around me.
The phrase 'helped me be a strong relationship' is incorrect. The verb 'helped me build' and plural 'relationships' correctly express the intended meaning of forming connections with others.
× From my perspective, I don't think my hometown is a good place for young people because it's lack of entertainment's option.
✓ From my perspective, I don't think my hometown is a good place for young people because it lacks entertainment options.
The phrase 'it's lack of entertainment's option' is incorrect. 'It's' (it is) should be 'it lacks' to show possession, and 'entertainment's option' should be 'entertainment options' without the possessive form.
× As young people nowadays, they prefer places with cinema, shopping mall and recreational area where they can have fun and relax.
✓ As young people nowadays, they prefer places with cinemas, shopping malls, and recreational areas where they can have fun and relax.
The nouns 'cinema', 'shopping mall', and 'recreational area' should be plural to match the general meaning of multiple facilities.
× However, for those who enjoy peaceful and quiet environments surrounded by nature, my hometown might be fitted.
✓ However, for those who enjoy peaceful and quiet environments surrounded by nature, my hometown might be suitable.
The word 'fitted' is incorrect here. The correct adjective is 'suitable' to express that the hometown may be appropriate for such people.
