Part 1

What is your favourite food?

Score: 34.0

Suggestion: Be direct and concise. Start with a clear topic sentence, then add one or two specific reasons using correct grammar and relevant vocabulary. Avoid repetition and unclear statements about nutrition. Use linking words like "because" or "because of" to connect ideas.

Example: My favourite food is hamburgers because I love the combination of a juicy patty and fresh toppings. For example, I often choose a burger with lettuce, tomato and cheese because it tastes satisfying and is easy to eat on the go.

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

Score: 40.0

Suggestion: Begin with a clear past-tense topic sentence. Use correct tense and reduce fillers. Give a reason and one brief evaluation (positive and negative) using linking words like "although" or "but". Use accurate vocabulary such as "nutritious".

Example: When I was young, I liked junk food such as chips and sweets because they were crispy and tasted good. However, I didn't eat them often later because they are not very nutritious.

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

Score: 30.0

Suggestion: Give a clear topic sentence that answers yes/no directly, then explain with specific, coherent examples. Use correct grammar and more precise vocabulary (e.g. "seasonal foods", "hot", "cold", "balance"). Use linking words like "for example" correctly and keep to two to three sentences.

Example: Yes, I do. In my region people usually eat lighter, cooling foods like cold noodles and fruits in summer, while in winter they prefer hot soups and stews for warmth and balance.

Has your favourite food changed since you were a child?

Score: 36.0

Suggestion: Answer directly and use correct tense and clear reasons. Avoid repetition of words and correct plural/singular forms. Give a brief example of what changed and why, using linking words like "because" or "so".

Example: Yes, it has changed. As a child I disliked vegetables because I found them boring, but now I enjoy them because I realise they are full of vitamins and make me feel healthier; for example, I eat salads and stir-fried greens regularly.

Grammar

Article errors

× My favorite food is hamburger.

My favorite food is the hamburger.

Use of definite article: 'hamburger' as a specific dish requires an article. Use 'the hamburger' or more naturally 'hamburgers' or 'hamburger' with a general sense requires 'a hamburger' if singular countable. Here student refers to the item in general, so 'the hamburger' or 'hamburger' as a category; best is 'the hamburger'. Suggestion: use 'the hamburger' or say 'hamburgers' to talk generally.

Incorrect use of adjectives or adverbs

× Hamburger is so delicious food.

The hamburger is such a delicious food.

Adjective/adverb order and determiners: need an article 'the' before singular countable noun and the structure 'such a + adjective + noun' for emphasis. Alternatively 'Hamburgers are very delicious.' Suggestion: use 'the hamburger is such a delicious food' or 'Hamburgers are very delicious.'

Incorrect use of pronouns

× They have so many they can eat eats.

There are so many toppings and varieties you can eat.

Pronoun reference and word choice: 'They' does not clearly refer to 'hamburger', and 'eat eats' is ungrammatical. Use 'there are' to introduce plural items and specify what 'many' refers to, e.g., 'toppings and varieties'. Suggestion: be explicit about the noun following 'many' and avoid repeating verbs.

Incorrect use of adjectives or adverbs

× A hamburger can give me some nutrient off balance because they have burger.

A hamburger can give me unbalanced nutrition because it can be high in fat.

Word choice and pronoun agreement: 'nutrient off balance' is incorrect phrase; use 'unbalanced nutrition' or 'an unbalanced diet'. Pronoun 'they' should agree with 'a hamburger' (singular), so use 'it'. Clarify reason: 'it can be high in fat' or 'it often lacks nutrients.' Suggestion: use clear noun phrases like 'unbalanced nutrition' and match singular pronouns.

Article errors

× When I was a young, maybe the junk food I very like, you know, uh, the chips and other junk food may be very crispy and delicious, but it don't have more nutritions.

When I was young, maybe I really liked junk food, such as chips and other snacks; they were crispy and tasty, but they didn't have much nutrition.

Multiple errors: 'a young'—article misuse; 'I very like'—incorrect adverb placement and tense; use past tense 'liked' for childhood; 'the chips' unnecessary; subject-verb agreement 'it don't' should be 'they didn't'; 'nutritions' plural is incorrect—use 'nutrition' or 'nutrients'. Suggestion: remove unnecessary articles with 'young', use past tense 'liked', keep subject-verb agreement, and use 'nutrition' or 'nutrients'.

Present tense issue

× Yeah, you know in China have so many eat food method in the for example, in the summer you need some warm food and in winter you need eat some cold food is your balance of your.

In China there are many ways of eating. For example, in summer people prefer cooler foods and in winter people prefer warm foods to keep their balance.

There are several issues: missing 'there are' (There be issue), word order and noun phrases ('eat food method' incorrect—use 'ways of eating'), verb forms ('need eat' incorrect—use 'need to eat' or 'prefer'), and awkward ending 'is your balance of your.' Use 'to keep their balance' or 'for balance.' Suggestion: use 'there are' to introduce existence, 'ways of eating', correct infinitive 'need to eat' or 'prefer', and clarify purpose 'to keep their balance'.

Past tense issue

× Yes, why was a child? I don't like eat any vegetable because I think it's so boring food and not delicious.

Yes, when I was a child I didn't like to eat any vegetables because I thought they were boring and not delicious.

Tense and verb forms: 'why was a child?' is incorrect question form—should be 'when I was a child'. Use past tense 'didn't like' and 'thought' to match time frame. 'Eat any vegetable' should be 'to eat any vegetables' and pronoun agreement 'they were'. Suggestion: use 'when I was a child' and past tense verbs; use plural 'vegetables' and correct pronouns.

Incorrect use of pronouns

× But now I want to eat more vegetable. They have so many vitamin and nutrient nutrients nutrition.

But now I want to eat more vegetables. They have many vitamins and nutrients.

Plural and noun form plus redundancy: 'vegetable' should be plural 'vegetables' when speaking generally. Use 'they' for plural vegetables—correct. 'so many vitamin and nutrient nutrients nutrition' is redundant and incorrect—use 'many vitamins and nutrients.' Suggestion: use plurals for general statements and list 'vitamins and nutrients' without repetition.
