Examiner
Do you like taking pictures of different views?
Candidate
Thank you for your question. I must say I love taking pictures of different views because I like capture the moment, capture the beauty because I believe that to each time in life we will see the different beauties of anything. So I wanted to save it in my memory and in my camera roll to remember it.
Examiner
Do you prefer views in urban areas or rural areas?
Candidate
I thank you for your question, but I must say I prefer either of them because each death of them will have their own beauty that we need to remember, we need to capture, and we need to enjoy it.
Examiner
Do you prefer views in your own country or in other countries?
Candidate
Thank you for your question. But I believe that each country has its own culture and beauty. But of course, because I was born and raised in Vietnam, so I truly like, I love Vietnam and I love the views of it from the bottom of my heart.
Do you like taking pictures of different views?
Score: 68.0Suggestion: Câu trả lời của bạn hiểu được ý nhưng có vài lỗi ngữ pháp, lặp ý và câu quá dài. Cụ thể: dùng cấu trúc mở đầu không cần thiết (“Thank you for your question”), thiếu mạo từ hoặc chia động từ (“I like capture” → “I like to capture” hoặc “I like capturing”), và lặp ý (“capture the moment, capture the beauty”). Hãy bắt đầu trực tiếp bằng câu chủ đề, dùng 2–3 câu phụ trợ rõ ràng, nối bằng từ liên kết như “because” hoặc “so that”, và tránh lặp từ. Thực hành sửa lỗi chia động từ, dùng mạo từ và rút gọn câu để tự nhiên hơn.
Example: I love taking photos of different views because they help me capture unique moments and natural beauty. For instance, when I visit the coast, I try to photograph the sunrise so that I can remember the colours and mood of that morning. I usually keep a few favourite shots in my phone and sometimes edit them later to improve the composition.
Do you prefer views in urban areas or rural areas?
Score: 60.0Suggestion: Câu trả lời không rõ ràng vì bạn nói “either of them” nhưng câu cần thể hiện lựa chọn hoặc so sánh; có lỗi từ sai (“death” thay vì “each” hoặc “one”), lặp cấu trúc (“we need to remember, we need to capture, and we need to enjoy it”). Hãy đưa ra quan điểm rõ ràng (ví dụ: bạn thích cả hai nhưng trong hoàn cảnh khác nhau), sử dụng từ nối như “however” hoặc “on the other hand”, và đưa ví dụ cụ thể về khi bạn thích vùng đô thị hay nông thôn.
Example: I enjoy both urban and rural views, but for different reasons. Urban views appeal to me because I like the dynamic city lights and architecture, while rural views are relaxing thanks to open fields and natural scenery. For example, I take city photos when I visit downtown at night, but I prefer the countryside for sunrise landscapes.
Do you prefer views in your own country or in other countries?
Score: 72.0Suggestion: Câu trả lời truyền tải cảm xúc tốt nhưng có lặp từ và một vài liên từ thừa (“But” lặp), cùng cấu trúc hơi lủng củng. Nên mở đầu bằng câu chủ đề ngắn gọn, rồi giải thích cụ thể lý do bạn yêu thích cảnh ở Việt Nam (ví dụ phong cảnh, văn hóa, ký ức), dùng liên từ như “because” và thêm một ví dụ cụ thể để tăng tính thuyết phục.
Example: I prefer the views in my own country, Vietnam, because they are tied to my personal memories and cultural background. For example, I love photographing rice terraces and coastal fishing villages since they remind me of family trips and traditional festivals. Although I appreciate scenery abroad, my strongest emotional connection remains with Vietnam.
× I must say I love taking pictures of different views because I like capture the moment, capture the beauty because I believe that to each time in life we will see the different beauties of anything.
✓ I must say I love taking pictures of different views because I like capturing the moment and capturing the beauty, because I believe that each time in life we will see different kinds of beauty.
The verb after 'like' should be in the -ing form (gerund) when expressing enjoyment. 'Like capture' is incorrect; use 'like capturing'. Also 'to each time' is ungrammatical; correct phrase is 'each time'. 'Different beauties of anything' is awkward; use 'different kinds of beauty'. Suggestions: use gerunds after 'like', simplify phrases, and choose natural collocations like 'kinds of beauty'.

✓ I must say I love taking pictures of different views because I like capturing the moment and capturing the beauty, because I believe that each time in life we will see different kinds of beauty.
The phrase 'the different beauties of anything' uses 'the' and 'anything' incorrectly. Use 'different kinds of beauty' (no 'the') to indicate variety. Suggestion: when speaking about non-count 'beauty', use 'kinds of' or 'aspects of'. Replace 'anything' with a more specific or general noun like 'life' or omit it.
× I thank you for your question, but I must say I prefer either of them because each death of them will have their own beauty that we need to remember, we need to capture, and we need to enjoy it.
✓ Thank you for your question, but I must say I prefer either of them because each of them has its own beauty that we need to remember, capture, and enjoy.
'I thank you' is formal but acceptable; more natural is 'Thank you'. 'Each death of them' is incorrect—likely meant 'each of them'. 'Their own beauty' should agree with singular 'each' so use 'its own beauty' or rephrase to 'each of them has its own beauty'. Also combine parallel verbs without repeated 'we need to'. Suggestions: use 'each of them has its own beauty' and maintain subject-verb agreement; streamline repeated phrases.

The subject 'each' is singular and requires a singular verb ('has' not 'will have' if speaking generally) and singular possessive ('its' not 'their'). Also 'will have' suggests future; general preference should use present 'has'. Suggestion: match 'each' with singular verbs and possessives; use present tense for general truths.

The sentence has redundant conjunctions 'But' and 'so' and awkward phrasing 'I truly like, I love'. Remove unnecessary 'But' at the start of the sentence and avoid 'so' after 'because' (redundant). 'The views of it' is unnatural; use 'its views'. Suggestions: avoid unnecessary conjunctions, combine similar statements, and use possessive forms like 'its' for countries.
