Part 1

Do you prefer to sit by the window when travelling?

Score: 78.0

Suggestion: Your answer is clear and relevant, but you can improve coherence and variety. Start with a concise topic sentence, then add two linked supporting details using linking words (for example, 'because' and 'also'). Avoid minor grammar slips (use 'take photos' or 'take photos of the view') and reduce repetition of 'I like'.

Example: I prefer to sit by the window when I travel because I enjoy the changing scenery and often take photos of interesting views. Also, sitting by the window helps me rest more easily since I can lean against it and relax.

Did you have a long journey with your family as a child?

Score: 72.0

Suggestion: The content is good but needs grammatical accuracy and clearer structure. Begin with a topic sentence in past tense, then give specific details using linking words (for example, 'we would' or 'often'). Fix plural/singular errors ('long road trips') and split into two sentences to avoid comma splices. Add a specific example to make it more vivid.

Example: Yes, we often went on long road trips during my school holidays to visit relatives who lived far away. I felt excited about exploring new towns and remember one trip when we stopped at a seaside village and tried local food together.

Grammar

Verb + -ing form

× Yes, I like sitting by the window when I travel.

✓ Yes, I like sitting by the window when I travel.

No correction needed; sentence correctly uses the verb + -ing form after 'like' to express a habitual preference.

Incorrect use of the definite article

× I like the scenery outside.

✓ I like the scenery outside.

No correction needed; 'the scenery' correctly refers to the view outside in general.

Incorrect use of article

× Sometimes I take the photos of the view and it's easier for me to sleep by leaning against the window.

✓ Sometimes I take photos of the view, and it's easier for me to sleep by leaning against the window.

Removed the unnecessary definite article 'the' before 'photos' because 'photos of the view' is general (no specific photos previously identified). Added a comma before 'and' to join two independent clauses. Suggestion: use 'take photos' when speaking generally.

Third person singular issue

× My family and I usually had long road trip during my school holidays.

✓ My family and I usually had long road trips during my school holidays.

Pluralization error: 'road trip' should be plural 'road trips' because 'usually' implies repeated events. Also 'had' is past tense which fits 'during my school holidays' (childhood). Suggestion: use plural noun with adverbs indicating repetition.

Incorrect use of pronouns

× We visited our relatives that live far away, I feel excited when visiting and exploring the new places

✓ We visited our relatives who lived far away. I felt excited when visiting and exploring new places.

Several issues: relative clause should use 'who' for people, and tense consistency requires past tense 'lived' to match 'visited.' The original used a comma splice; split into two sentences. 'I feel excited' should be past 'I felt excited' to match narrative past. Removed the definite article 'the' before 'new places' because it is general. Suggestions: use 'who' for people, maintain consistent tense, and avoid comma splices by using a period or conjunction.
