What is your favourite food?

Score: 84.0

Suggestion: 全体的に内容は明確で自然ですが、より簡潔なトピックセンテンスと一つか二つの具体例を加えると更に良くなります。例えば「どんな種類の寿司が好きか」や「特に好きなネタや食べ方」を述べ、接続語(for example, also)を使って話の流れを滑らかにしてください。また文は最大5文にまとめ、冗長表現を減らしましょう。

Example: My favourite food is sushi because it is fresh and healthy. For example, I especially like salmon and tuna nigiri for their rich taste. I also enjoy trying different rolls at restaurants to experience new flavors.

What kind of food did you like when you were young?

Score: 72.0

Suggestion: 内容は分かりやすいですが、文法ミスと冗長な表現が目立ちます。過去の習慣を表す“used to”は正しく使えているので、続けて一つか二つの具体的理由に絞り、接続詞(because, and)でつなぎましょう。語彙は“exciting”ではなく“excited”など正しい形を使うこと。文は3文以内に収めてください。

Example: When I was young, I used to prefer junk food, especially hamburgers, because they tasted rich and were easy to eat. I was also excited when fast-food meals included small toys, which made them more fun.

Do you eat different foods at different times of the year?

Score: 30.0

Suggestion: 回答は混乱しており文法や語彙の誤用が多いです。まずは短く明確に答え(Yes/No + 理由の簡潔な一文)、次に具体例を一つ加える構成にしてください。不要な語(人名、省略的な表現)や意味不明なフレーズは避け、正しい動詞や表現(e.g. “I eat similar foods because I follow a gym-friendly diet”)を使いましょう。

Example: No, I tend to eat similar foods year-round because I follow a consistent gym-friendly diet. For example, I often eat grilled chicken, steamed vegetables, and brown rice regardless of the season.

Has your favourite food changed since you were a child?

Score: 78.0

Suggestion: 内容は明確で比較構造も使えているが、時制と動詞の一致に注意してください(過去の習慣は“preferred”)。また、理由を一つに絞り短くまとめ、接続語(but, now)を使って論理を明確にしましょう。例を付けると説得力が増します。

Example: When I was a child, I preferred junk food, but now I choose fresh foods like sushi and vegetables because they are healthier and give me more energy.

Grammar

Incorrect use of articles

× I like sushi, which is traditional Japanese food and has become popular worldwide.

I like sushi, which is a traditional Japanese food and has become popular worldwide.

'Traditional Japanese food' requires the indefinite article 'a' because it is a singular countable noun phrase referring to a type/category of food. Add 'a' to make the noun phrase grammatical: 'a traditional Japanese food'.

Verb in the present participle form

× I enjoy it because it's fresh and healthy, and I can try many different types of sushi in the restaurant.

I enjoy it because it is fresh and healthy, and I can try many different types of sushi at restaurants.

Use 'it is' instead of contraction for formality is optional but not a grammar error; main issues: use plural 'restaurants' or preposition 'at' instead of 'in the restaurant' because the student is speaking generally. Change 'in the restaurant' to 'at restaurants' to indicate general locations where one can try many types.

Past tense issue

× When I was younger I used to prefer junk food, especially hamburgers because they have a rich flavor and are convenient.

When I was younger I used to prefer junk food, especially hamburgers, because they had a rich flavor and were convenient.

When describing habitual past preferences with 'used to,' verbs in the subordinate clause should also be in past tense to maintain consistent past reference: 'had' and 'were' rather than present 'have' and 'are'.

Incorrect use of quantifiers

× I also like them because some fast food meals sometimes came with small toy which made me more exciting.

I also liked them because some fast food meals sometimes came with a small toy, which made me more excited.

Multiple issues: verb tense should match past 'liked'; 'small toy' is singular and needs an article 'a'; 'more exciting' is incorrect because the toys caused the speaker to feel excited, so use the adjective 'excited' (a feeling). Also add comma before 'which' for nonrestrictive clause.

Incorrect use of prepositions

× No Lily, I prefer to eat same food almost every day because I often go to the gym legally almost every day, so I really care for to get a what should I eat? For example, I recently used to drive the chicken.

No, Lily, I prefer to eat the same food almost every day because I often go to the gym, so I really care about what I should eat. For example, I recently started to eat chicken.

This sentence had several grammatical problems mapped to prepositions and word choice: 'the same food' requires the definite article 'the'; remove duplicated 'almost every day'; 'care for to get a what should I eat?' is ungrammatical—use 'care about what I should eat'; 'used to drive the chicken' is incorrect—likely intended 'recently started to eat chicken' or 'recently began eating chicken'. Clarify to 'started to eat chicken'.

Present tense issue

× When I was a child I prefer eating junk food, but nowadays I prefer fresh food, especially sushi and vegetables because they are healthier and give me more energy.

When I was a child I preferred eating junk food, but nowadays I prefer fresh food, especially sushi and vegetables because they are healthier and give me more energy.

When contrasting past and present, use past tense 'preferred' for the childhood habit to match 'when I was a child.' 'Prefer' should be changed to 'preferred' to maintain tense consistency.
