Part 1

What is your favourite food?

Score: 62.0

Suggestion: Speak more clearly and correct grammar (e.g., subject-verb agreement, word choice). Keep responses concise (max 5 sentences) and organize with a clear topic sentence followed by 1–2 supporting details. Use linking words for cohesion and provide specific examples or reasons (e.g., a particular noodle dish and when you eat it).

Example: My favourite food is noodles because they are comforting and easy to prepare. For example, I often eat chicken noodle soup when I’m tired because it makes me feel better. I also enjoy cold noodle salads in summer since they are refreshing and light.

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

Score: 68.0

Suggestion: Begin with a clear topic sentence and correct tense usage. Avoid repetition and redundant phrases. Give a specific childhood memory or a particular dish to make the answer more vivid. Use linking words like 'because' or 'for example' to connect ideas.

Example: When I was young I liked many foods, but my favourite was noodles because my mother cooked them almost every week. For example, she made a simple soy-sesame noodle dish that I loved, and I still crave that flavour today.

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

Score: 82.0

Suggestion: Good clear response with specific detail. Improve fluency by using a linking phrase at the start and vary vocabulary (e.g., 'holiday meal' → 'festive meal'). Keep it to one or two sentences and correct minor phrasing for naturalness.

Example: Yes, I do. For example, at Christmas my family always has roasted chicken with gravy as our festive meal, and we seldom eat it at other times of the year.

Has your favourite food changed since you were a child?

Score: 50.0

Suggestion: Correct the grammar and make the answer direct. Use a topic sentence ('No, it hasn’t changed') then give a brief reason and a specific example. Avoid unclear phrases like 'it's happening too much' and redundant reminders to previous answers.

Example: No, my favourite food hasn’t changed since childhood because I have always loved noodles. As a child I ate a simple broth noodle every week, and I still enjoy similar noodle dishes now.

Grammar

Third person singular issue

× My favorite food is noodles because they always feels refreshing and comforting.

My favorite food is noodles because they always feel refreshing and comforting.

The subject 'they' is plural, so the verb should be in the base form 'feel' rather than the third-person singular 'feels'. Use plural agreement: 'they feel'. Suggestion: match plural subjects with plural verbs.

Sentence structure errors

× I enjoy them in many forms such as the main cuisine or even noodles can be dessert dish as well.

I enjoy them in many forms, such as as a main course, or even as a dessert.

The original mixes structures ('such as the main cuisine' and 'noodles can be dessert dish') and omits necessary articles and prepositions. Rephrase clearly: 'such as as a main course' (use 'course' not 'cuisine' here) and 'as a dessert'. Also add commas to separate items. Suggestion: keep parallel structure and include articles ('a').

Sentence structure errors

× And I finally remember as we noodle the search for my hometown that I used to eat it a lot when I was young.

I finally remembered that during my search for my hometown, I recalled that I used to eat them a lot when I was young.

The original is ungrammatical and confusing ('we noodle the search' is incorrect). Use past tense 'remembered' to match 'used to eat', and clarify subject. Replace 'it' with 'them' to refer to noodles. Suggestion: make chronology clear and use consistent pronouns and tenses.

Incorrect use of articles

× When I was young I was not really picky eater and I like many kind of food but if I had to choose one favorite it would be noodles because I started eating them as a child and I still enjoy them now.

When I was young I was not really a picky eater and I liked many kinds of food, but if I had to choose one favorite it would be noodles because I started eating them as a child and I still enjoy them now.

Missing article 'a' before 'picky eater' and incorrect pluralization 'many kind' should be 'many kinds'. Tense inconsistency: 'When I was young' requires past 'liked'. Suggestion: add 'a', pluralize 'kinds', and use past tense for habits in the past.

Verb in the present participle form

× Yes I do. At Christmas my family always eats roasted chicken with gravy sauce as part of our celebration and we rarely have that dish at other times of the year because it's a special holiday meal.

Yes I do. At Christmas my family always eats roast chicken with gravy as part of our celebration, and we rarely have that dish at other times of the year because it's a special holiday meal.

'Roasted chicken' is acceptable, but 'roast chicken' is more natural here; 'gravy sauce' is redundant—use 'gravy'. Also add a comma before 'and' to join clauses. Suggestion: prefer concise noun phrases and correct collocations: 'roast chicken' and 'gravy'.

Present tense issue

× No, it's happening too much when I was child, because if I mentioned earlier, I've told you that I really enjoyed to eat noodles and until now I still enjoy to eat it.

No, it wasn't like that when I was a child. As I mentioned earlier, I really enjoyed eating noodles, and I still enjoy eating them now.

Mixed tenses and incorrect constructions: 'it's happening too much when I was child' is ungrammatical—use past 'wasn't like that' or 'it didn't change'. 'If I mentioned earlier, I've told you' is wrong; use 'As I mentioned earlier'. 'Enjoyed to eat' should be 'enjoyed eating'; similarly 'enjoy to eat it' -> 'enjoy eating them'. Use 'a child' and plural pronoun 'them' for noodles. Suggestion: keep tense consistent and use gerund after 'enjoy'.
