考官
Do you often go to the library?
考生
No, I don't often visit the library because I believe I'm a couch potato. I hardly like to move out my house to do anything. Moreover, everything nowadays is available on the Internet, even the general or the books. However, there are some books that are only available in library for that I have to visit.
考官
What do you usually do in the library?
考生
As earlier mentioned, I hardly visit the library. However, if I need a specific book that is not available digitally, I do visit a library occasionally to borrow it. Moreover, there are many specific options are available like the free printing options and free Wi-Fi available, so I like to visit for that.
考官
Did you go to the library when you were a kid?
考生
No, I didn't visit any library when I was a kid because I grew up in my village and there is no such opportunity available in my area. And the nearest library that is available to my home is I guess 5 kilometer from the village. So I don't get a chance to visit any library in UMM in my childhood.

As much as I heard about their technological innovations, I believe the Chinese kids don't often visit the library because they have a high level of Wi-Fi and information available over the Internet. Moreover, those are tech savvy people.

× I hardly like to move out my house to do anything.
✓ I hardly like to move out of my house to do anything.
The preposition 'out' should be followed by 'of' when indicating leaving a place. So, 'move out of my house' is correct, not 'move out my house'.
× Moreover, everything nowadays is available on the Internet, even the general or the books.
✓ Moreover, everything nowadays is available on the Internet, even the general books or the books.
The phrase 'the general or the books' is unclear and incorrect. It should be 'the general books or the books' to make sense. Also, 'the' is unnecessary before 'general' unless specifying particular books.
× However, there are some books that are only available in library for that I have to visit.
✓ However, there are some books that are only available in the library, so I have to visit.
The phrase 'in library' requires the definite article 'the' to become 'in the library'. Also, 'for that I have to visit' is awkward; 'so I have to visit' is more natural.
× if I need a specific book that is not available digitally, I do visit a library occasionally to borrow it.
✓ if I need a specific book that is not available digitally, I do visit the library occasionally to borrow it.
When referring to a specific place known to both speaker and listener, 'the library' is used instead of 'a library'.
× Moreover, there are many specific options are available like the free printing options and free Wi-Fi available, so I like to visit for that.
✓ Moreover, there are many specific options available, like free printing and free Wi-Fi, so I like to visit for that.
The sentence has redundant verbs 'are' and 'available' together. Removing 'are' before 'available' corrects the sentence structure. Also, 'the free printing options and free Wi-Fi available' is better as 'free printing and free Wi-Fi'.
× No, I didn't visit any library when I was a kid because I grew up in my village and there is no such opportunity available in my area.
✓ No, I didn't visit any library when I was a kid because I grew up in my village and there was no such opportunity available in my area.
The sentence refers to the past, so 'there is' should be changed to past tense 'there was' to maintain tense consistency.
× And the nearest library that is available to my home is I guess 5 kilometer from the village.
✓ And the nearest library that is available to my home is, I guess, 5 kilometers from the village.
The phrase 'available to my home' is incorrect; 'available near my home' or 'closest to my home' is better. Also, '5 kilometer' should be plural '5 kilometers'. Adding commas around 'I guess' improves readability.
× So I don't get a chance to visit any library in UMM in my childhood.
✓ So I didn't get a chance to visit any library in UMM during my childhood.
The sentence refers to past time, so 'don't get' should be 'didn't get'. Also, 'in my childhood' is better expressed as 'during my childhood'.
× As much as I heard about their technological innovations, I believe the Chinese kids don't often visit the library because they have a high level of Wi-Fi and information available over the Internet.
✓ As far as I have heard about their technological innovations, I believe Chinese kids don't often visit the library because they have a high level of Wi-Fi and information available over the Internet.
The phrase 'As much as I heard' is incorrect; 'As far as I have heard' is the correct idiomatic expression. Also, 'the Chinese kids' is better as 'Chinese kids' when speaking generally.
