Part 1

Do you like reading?

Score: 72.0

Suggestion: Be more concise and clear: start with a direct topic sentence answering the question, then add one or two brief supporting details. Avoid awkward phrasing like "argue with the subject of the book"; instead use a clearer verb and explain what you mean. Use linking words if you add a second point.

Example: Yes, I do. I'm a member of my university book club, where I enjoy discussing and debating the themes and characters with other students, which helps me understand books more deeply.

Do you prefer to read on paper or on a screen?

Score: 66.0

Suggestion: Give a clear main statement and then one or two specific reasons with correct grammar. Avoid vague phrases like "feel more understandable"—say "I understand better" or "I concentrate more." Omit irrelevant comments unless they add value.

Example: I prefer reading on paper because I understand and remember information better, and I find it easier to concentrate without screen distractions. Also, physical books are convenient to carry and feel satisfying to own.

When do you need to read carefully, and when not?

Score: 70.0

Suggestion: Structure the response with a clear topic sentence and give specific conditions with linking words. Correct tense and phrasing: say "when a deadline approaches" and explain why you skim instead of reading carefully. Keep it to two or three sentences.

Example: I usually read carefully because I like to understand the details, but when a club deadline approaches I sometimes skim to finish on time. In those cases I focus on summaries and key sections rather than every detail.

Do you prefer scanning or detailed reading?

Score: 68.0

Suggestion: Begin with a direct answer and follow with a concise reason using correct grammar and linking words. Replace awkward phrases like "more the understanding of the author" with "better understand the author's ideas." Keep sentences short and specific.

Example: I prefer detailed reading because it helps me remember key points and better understand the author's ideas. As a result, I can discuss themes and examples more confidently.

Grammar

Incorrect use of prepositions

× Of course, in my university I'm in the book reading club and also I really like to argue with the subject of the book.

Of course, at my university I'm in the book reading club and I also really like to discuss the subject of the book.

Use 'at' with places like university (preposition error). 'Argue with the subject' is unnatural; use 'discuss the subject' (word choice). Also add 'I' before 'also' to maintain parallel structure.

Incorrect use of prepositions

× I prefer to read on paper because when I read on paper I feel more understandable and.

I prefer to read on paper because when I read on paper I find it easier to understand.

'Feel more understandable' is incorrect: a reader understands something, so use 'find it easier to understand' (verb and object choice). Remove the trailing 'and' which makes the sentence incomplete (sentence structure/preposition misuse).

Article errors

× It looks quite cool when I bring that paper book.

It looks quite cool when I bring that paperback book.

'Paper book' is not a natural collocation. 'Paperback book' or simply 'paper book' is uncommon; 'paperback book' describes a book with a paper cover. Also 'that' is acceptable but 'that paperback' or 'that book' is more natural.

Subject-verb agreement errors

× I usually always read carefully, but when I'm in the book club there is the deadline, so if the deadline come I'm not really read carefully.

I usually always read carefully, but when I'm in the book club there is a deadline, so if the deadline comes I'm not really reading carefully.

'There is the deadline' should be 'there is a deadline' (article error). 'If the deadline come' needs third person singular verb 'comes' (subject-verb agreement). 'I'm not really read carefully' incorrect verb form; use progressive 'not really reading carefully' (verb form/tense).

Verb + -ing form

× I prefer detailed reading because I really like to remember all of the details on the book and then makes me more concentrated and more the understanding of the author.

I prefer detailed reading because I really like to remember all of the details in the book and it helps me concentrate more and better understand the author's ideas.

Use 'in the book' not 'on the book' (preposition). 'Then makes me' lacks a subject and wrong verb form; add 'it helps me' to supply subject and correct verb. 'More concentrated' is better as 'concentrate more'. 'More the understanding of the author' is ungrammatical — use 'better understand the author's ideas' to express intended meaning.
