Do you like taking pictures of different views?
Thí sinh
Well, not really, I think I'm not much into photography and I really take pictures even of myself. It's been 4 years to my university, but I hardly have taken, uh, five to six pictures. But I must say that Yep, if it comes to sceneries or like natural views or landscapes or photography of the nature. So it depends on my mood and the situation.

While urban areas have interesting architecture, they are often crowded and polluted, so I usually choose rural settings.

Ví dụ: I prefer views in my own country because we have four distinct seasons that each create different scenery. For example, winter brings snow-covered landscapes, spring offers blossoming trees, summer has clear skies and bright nights, and autumn produces colorful foliage. These seasonal changes make local views especially attractive to me.
× Well, not really, I think I'm not much into photography and I really take pictures even of myself.
✓ Well, not really. I don't enjoy photography much, and I rarely take pictures of myself.
The original sentence has run-on structure and awkward phrasing ('not much into photography' and 'I really take pictures even of myself'). This is a sentence structure issue: use clearer clause boundaries and correct adverb choice. Suggest breaking into two sentences, use 'don't enjoy ... much' and 'rarely' for frequency.
× It's been 4 years to my university, but I hardly have taken, uh, five to six pictures.
✓ I have been at university for four years, but I have hardly taken five or six pictures.
The original uses incorrect word order and preposition ('to my university') and awkward present perfect placement. This fits present tense/duration and preposition issues: say 'have been at university for four years' and use 'have hardly taken' with 'five or six' (not 'five to six').
× But I must say that Yep, if it comes to sceneries or like natural views or landscapes or photography of the nature.
✓ But I must say that if it comes to scenery or natural landscapes, I do take photos.
Fragment and redundancy: the original is an incomplete sentence and repeats similar nouns ('sceneries', 'natural views', 'landscapes', 'photography of the nature'). This is a sentence structure and word choice problem. Make a complete sentence, use 'scenery' or 'landscapes' (uncountable) and 'natural' without 'of the nature'.
× So it depends on my mood and the situation.
✓ So it depends on my mood and the situation.
This sentence is grammatically correct; no change needed. It correctly uses 'depends on' to indicate conditionality. Included for completeness.
× My first preference will always be the views from the rural area because the air is fresh, the nature is in its purest form, always, uh, the landscape, the scenery, the mountains, uh, everything.
✓ My first preference will always be views from rural areas because the air is fresh and nature is in its purest form: the landscape, the scenery, the mountains, everything.
Minor article and plurality issues and awkward listing. 'Views from rural areas' (plural) is more natural than 'the views from the rural area'. Remove unnecessary commas and filler. This corrects article and plural usage and improves flow.
× But I will also deny, uh, this views from the urban area, I guess because.
✓ But I would not choose views from urban areas, I guess.
'Deny this views' is incorrect: 'views' plural needs 'these' and 'deny' is the wrong verb. This is a pronoun and verb choice issue. Use 'would not choose' or 'would prefer not to' and 'urban areas' (plural) and finish the sentence.
× I definitely prefer views from my country because it has four beautiful seasons, the winter, autumn, spring and summers and all these four different seasons offer you a spectacular views.
✓ I definitely prefer views in my country because it has four beautiful seasons: winter, autumn, spring and summer, and all four seasons offer spectacular views.
Article and plural errors: do not use 'the' before season names in this list, use 'summer' not 'summers' here, and 'spectacular views' (no 'a'). Also 'views from my country' → 'views in my country' is more natural. Rephrase for correct articles and plurality.
× Like in winters you'd see the the blowing cool air, the snow and then summer you will see full moon.
✓ For example, in winter you see cool breezes and snow, and in summer you can see the full moon.
Problems: double 'the', incorrect plural 'winters' and inconsistent tense/modal verbs. Make parallel structure: 'in winter' and 'in summer', use 'cool breezes' or 'cool air', and include 'the full moon' with appropriate modal 'can' if suggesting possibility.
× But it's.
✓ But that's what I prefer.
Fragment: 'But it's.' is incomplete. Provide a complete finishing clause to clarify meaning. This is a sentence structure error; replace with a complete thought.
