Part 1
考官
Do you like chatting with friends?
考生
Yes, obviously it isn't an integral part of my daily life. I would be bored and I would feel lonely if I have no one to talk to me. So making a conversation about our daily stories make me feel like I'm still alive and I can update my friend's life too.
考官
What do you usually chat about with friends?
考生
So we usually talk about our work, yeah, maybe our boss and our colleagues, something we may struggle at work, but we cannot share with people there. So now we talk and we discuss and maybe we think of some solutions for the problems that we are facing. And even when there's drama on Facebook, we can jam in to talk about them.
考官
Do you prefer to chat with a group of people or with only one friend?
考生
I prefer to have a one-on-one conversation because it makes me feel much more comfortable when talk about something that we can dive deeper into compared to talk in a group. A lot of people have different opinions so it really dis disturbance and difficult for me to pay attention to one threat.
考官
Do you prefer to communicate face-to-face or via social media?
考生
Face to face is always my top priority 'cause I can see my friend's facial expressions and is would be better for us to maintain eye contact while speaking. So talking online something not kind of smooth. Maybe you can have some problems with Wi-Fi connection.
考官
Do you argue with friends?
考生
Sometimes maybe we have different points of view on something and then we have an argument, but it doesn't go for long. So just soon we're trying to refocus on what we have been talking about and try to make each other feel better. So yeah, it goes to the end of the argument.

× I would be bored and I would feel lonely if I have no one to talk to me.
✓ I would be bored and I would feel lonely if I had no one to talk to.
The sentence expresses a hypothetical situation in the present or future, so the correct form is the past subjunctive 'had' instead of 'have' after 'if'. Also, 'talk to me' is redundant; 'talk to' suffices.
× So making a conversation about our daily stories make me feel like I'm still alive and I can update my friend's life too.
✓ So making a conversation about our daily stories makes me feel like I'm still alive and I can update my friends' lives too.
The subject 'making a conversation' is singular, so the verb should be 'makes' not 'make'. Also, 'friend's life' should be plural possessive 'friends' lives' because it refers to multiple friends.
× So now we talk and we discuss and maybe we think of some solutions for the problems that we are facing.
✓ So now we talk, discuss, and maybe think of some solutions for the problems that we are facing.
When listing verbs with the same subject, it's better to use parallel structure without repeating 'we' and avoid unnecessary conjunctions for smoother flow.
× And even when there's drama on Facebook, we can jam in to talk about them.
✓ And even when there's drama on Facebook, we can jump in to talk about it.
'Jam in' is incorrect; the correct phrase is 'jump in'. Also, 'them' should be 'it' because 'drama' is uncountable and singular.
× I prefer to have a one-on-one conversation because it makes me feel much more comfortable when talk about something that we can dive deeper into compared to talk in a group.
✓ I prefer to have a one-on-one conversation because it makes me feel much more comfortable when talking about something that we can dive deeper into compared to talking in a group.
After 'comfortable', the verb should be in the gerund form 'talking'. Also, parallel structure requires 'talking' in both clauses.
× A lot of people have different opinions so it really dis disturbance and difficult for me to pay attention to one threat.
✓ A lot of people have different opinions, so it really is disturbing and difficult for me to pay attention to one thread.
'Dis disturbance' is incorrect; the correct adjective is 'disturbing'. Also, 'threat' should be 'thread' in the context of conversation. Added 'is' for correct sentence structure.
× Face to face is always my top priority 'cause I can see my friend's facial expressions and is would be better for us to maintain eye contact while speaking.
✓ Face to face is always my top priority because I can see my friends' facial expressions and it would be better for us to maintain eye contact while speaking.
'Friend's' should be plural possessive 'friends'' to match context. 'Is would be' is incorrect; correct phrase is 'it would be'. Also, avoid contractions in formal speech.
× So talking online something not kind of smooth.
✓ So talking online is not very smooth.
The original sentence lacks a verb and proper structure. Adding 'is' and rephrasing improves clarity and grammatical correctness.
× Maybe you can have some problems with Wi-Fi connection.
✓ Maybe you can have some problems with the Wi-Fi connection.
'Wi-Fi connection' requires the definite article 'the' because it refers to a specific type of connection.
