Did you go to the library when you were a kid?
Thí sinh
No, I didn't go to the library very often when I was a child because my parents were very busy back then and I wasn't allowed to go out by myself. So I ended up not going to the library very often. But I wish I were because I think it's very important for children to visit library.

Although I'm not a Chinese myself, I have a limited knowledge on this topic, but I believe Chinese kids go to library regularly because I know Chinese people values education and their children's education especially.

The preposition 'to' is missing before 'the library'. In English, when indicating movement towards a place, the preposition 'to' is required before the noun. Therefore, 'go library' should be corrected to 'go to the library'.
× But I wish I were because I think it's very important for children to visit library.
✓ But I wish I were because I think it's very important for children to visit the library.
The definite article 'the' is missing before 'library'. When referring to a specific place known to both speaker and listener, such as 'the library', the definite article 'the' is necessary. Therefore, 'visit library' should be corrected to 'visit the library'.

Two errors here: first, the preposition 'to' should be followed by the definite article 'the' before 'library' to form 'go to the library'. Second, the verb 'values' does not agree with the plural subject 'Chinese people'; it should be 'value'. The correction addresses both issues.
