× My hometown is a small village in the countryside which is located in the provincial capital of Kampung Jam.
✓ My hometown is a small village in the countryside near the provincial capital of Kampung Jam.
The phrase 'located in the provincial capital' is incorrect because a village cannot be located inside a provincial capital city. The correct preposition is 'near' to indicate proximity.
× It is well known for fertile agriculture or land, whereas most of the villagers do farming for livelihood such as growing crops like trees.
✓ It is well known for its fertile land, and most of the villagers farm for their livelihood by growing crops and trees.
The phrase 'fertile agriculture or land' is incorrect; 'fertile land' is the proper expression. Also, 'do farming' should be 'farm', and 'such as growing crops like trees' is awkward; 'growing crops and trees' is clearer.
× Honestly speaking, I like to think about my hometown first.
✓ Honestly speaking, I like my hometown the most.
The original sentence is awkward and unclear. 'I like to think about my hometown first' does not clearly express preference. The correction simplifies and clarifies the meaning.
× All in the location it's mean it far away from the city where it's likely to affected by noise pollution or the cloudy from life in the city.
✓ Overall, it means it is far away from the city, so it is less likely to be affected by noise pollution or the smog from city life.
The original sentence has incorrect prepositions and grammar. 'All in the location' is unclear; 'far away from the city' needs 'is'; 'likely to affected' should be 'likely to be affected'; 'cloudy' is incorrect, 'smog' or 'pollution' is appropriate.
× And also the environment is very green nature and people are very friendly.
✓ Also, the environment is very green and natural, and the people are very friendly.
The phrase 'green nature' is incorrect; 'green and natural' is better. Also, the sentence needs proper conjunctions and articles.
× In France, I lived there for 15 years before moving to my current address in the city.
✓ I lived in France for 15 years before moving to my current address in the city.
The phrase 'In France, I lived there' is redundant; 'I lived in France' is correct. The past tense 'lived' is used correctly here.
× However, during the years that I live in my hometown, I made a lot of friends with my neighbor.
✓ However, during the years that I lived in my hometown, I made a lot of friends with my neighbors.
The phrase 'that I live' should be past tense 'that I lived' to match 'made'. Also, 'neighbor' should be plural 'neighbors'.
× I know a lot of place where I can go to enjoy and we will.
✓ I know a lot of places where I can go to enjoy, and we do.
'A lot of place' should be 'a lot of places' (plural). The phrase 'and we will' is incomplete; 'and we do' is clearer.
