Điểm: 60.0Gợi ý: Correct grammar and reduce hesitations: say 'rural areas' (no 'a') and avoid fillers like 'uh'. Provide a clear reason using linking words (e.g., 'because', 'so') and one specific detail or example. Keep it to one or two sentences.
Ví dụ: I prefer rural areas because I like being close to nature. For example, photographing village landscapes and meadows lets me capture peaceful scenes and interesting natural light.

Điểm: 55.0Gợi ý: Be clearer and more fluent: remove repetitions and fillers. Use a direct topic sentence stating preference (e.g., 'I prefer new views wherever they are') and support it with a reason and an example. Use precise vocabulary ('foreign scenery', 'local landscapes') and avoid repeating words like 'unfamiliar'.
Ví dụ: I prefer discovering new views, whether at home or abroad, because I enjoy exploring unfamiliar landscapes. For instance, I recently found a beautiful coastal cliff near my town that felt as exciting as a trip abroad.
× That's why I can say that it's one of my hobby.
✓ That's why I can say that it's one of my hobbies.
The noun 'hobby' is countable and needs a plural form when used with 'one of my', which refers to one item in a group. Change 'hobby' to 'hobbies' to match 'one of my'. Suggestion: use 'one of my hobbies' whenever indicating one item from multiple hobbies.
× I definitely prefer taking photos of a rural areas because I like being, uh, close to the nature, uh, these landscapes and uh, villages plots, uh, are always inspire me.
✓ I definitely prefer taking photos of rural areas because I like being close to nature; these landscapes and village scenes always inspire me.
Multiple article and word-choice errors: 'a rural areas' mixes singular article with plural noun—remove 'a' to use plural 'rural areas'. 'the nature' is incorrect here; use 'nature' without 'the' when speaking generally. 'villages plots' is awkward and likely intended as 'village scenes' or 'village plots'; choose 'village scenes' for clarity. 'are always inspire me' is ungrammatical; use 'always inspire me' (present simple with plural subject). Suggestions: match articles to count (no article for general 'nature'), ensure noun number agreement, and use correct verb form after subject.
× these landscapes and uh, villages plots, uh, are always inspire me.
✓ these landscapes and village scenes always inspire me.
The verb phrase 'are always inspire me' mixes an auxiliary structure with base verb incorrectly. For plural subject 'these landscapes and village scenes' use the simple present 'inspire'. Remove 'are' and ensure subject-verb agreement. Suggestion: use 'these ... always inspire me' for habitual actions.
× I would say that I prefer seeing new, uh, views, uh, because exploring, uh, something unfamiliar like unfamiliar landscapes and sceneries is, uh, preferable for me.
✓ I would say that I prefer seeing new views because exploring unfamiliar landscapes and scenery is preferable for me.
Redundant words and article issues: 'something unfamiliar like unfamiliar landscapes and sceneries' repeats 'unfamiliar' and uses plural 'sceneries'—'scenery' is an uncountable noun and should be singular. 'is preferable for me' is acceptable but more natural as 'is preferable to me' or 'I prefer it'. Suggestion: remove filler words, avoid repetition, use 'scenery' for general landscapes.
× And, uh, it's not about, uh, abroad sceneries.
✓ And it's not about abroad scenery.
Use of 'abroad sceneries' is incorrect: 'abroad' is an adverb and should not directly modify a noun in this way; instead use 'abroad scenery' or better 'scenery abroad'. Also 'sceneries' is nonstandard plural—use uncountable 'scenery'. Suggestion: say 'scenery abroad' or 'scenery in other countries'.
× It's always about, uh, uh, something new also in your country too.
✓ It's always about finding something new even in your own country.
Pronoun and redundancy issues: 'your country too' is inappropriate because the speaker is talking about their own preference; 'own' clarifies possession. The original has double adverbs 'also' and 'too'—choose one. Suggestion: use 'even in your own country' or 'even in my own country' depending on intended meaning.
