Part 1

Do you like taking pictures of different views?

Score: 76.0

Suggestion: Reduce fillers and repetition, make a clear topic sentence, then give one or two specific supporting details using linking words. Mention why you prefer those subjects and give a short example to enrich the answer.

Example: Yes, I really enjoy photographing different scenes. For example, I mainly take portraits of children and candid shots of animals because their expressions are genuine and spontaneous. Also, I recently bought a new iPhone because its improved camera lets me capture finer details and better colors.

Do you prefer views in urban areas or rural areas?

Score: 80.0

Suggestion: Start with a clear direct answer, avoid hesitations and repetitions, then give one or two specific reasons with linking words (for example, because / so). You can add a brief personal example of a rural scene you'd like to photograph.

Example: I prefer rural views. Because I grew up in the city, urban scenes feel familiar and less exciting, so I enjoy rural landscapes like open fields and traditional villages, which offer more varied textures and peaceful light for photography.

Do you prefer views in your own country or in other countries?

Score: 72.0

Suggestion: Give a concise direct answer, avoid hesitation words, and support it with a specific reason and an example. Use linking words (for instance, because / for example) and a comparative phrase to show contrast between countries.

Example: I prefer views in other countries because they often have more natural landscapes and cultural variety. For example, I would love to photograph coastal cliffs or traditional countryside abroad, which contrast with the dense high-rise skyline I see at home.

Grammar

Verb + -ing form

× I love taking pictures and for that reason I have also bought a new iPhone because the picture quality is way better in this one.

I love taking pictures, and for that reason I also bought a new iPhone because the picture quality is much better on this one.

The original sentence used 'have also bought' (present perfect) while the rest of the narrative is simple past or general present; 'also bought' (simple past) fits better with the speaker's completed action. Additionally, use 'much better' rather than 'way better' for standard formality and 'on this one' is the correct prepositional phrase for devices. Suggestion: keep consistent tense (simple past) and use appropriate preposition 'on'.

Incorrect use of prepositions

× I love to take pictures of children mostly and also animals.

I mostly love to take pictures of children and also of animals.

Preposition 'of' is required before both 'children' and 'animals' for parallel structure. Moving 'mostly' before the verb improves clarity. Suggestion: maintain parallel prepositional phrases: 'of children and of animals' or 'of children and animals'.

Sentence structure errors

× I love uh, cute little things and I love to focus on things.

I love cute little things, and I like to focus on them.

Repeating 'I love' and 'things' is redundant. Replacing the second clause with 'I like to focus on them' uses a pronoun for cohesion and avoids repetition. Suggestion: combine clauses and use pronouns to refer back to previously mentioned nouns for smoother sentences.

Third person singular issue

× I definitely prefer views of rural areas because I live in an urban area so it's quite common to me and I I grew, I grew up in this place, so I already know all the views and the places that are beautiful.

I definitely prefer views of rural areas because I live in an urban area, so they are quite familiar to me; I grew up here, so I already know the beautiful views and places.

Pronominal and verb forms needed adjustment: 'it's quite common to me' is unnatural; 'they are quite familiar to me' correctly refers to 'views'. 'I grew, I grew up in this place' is repetitive and awkward; 'I grew up here' is concise. Also 'the views and the places that are beautiful' is wordy; 'the beautiful views and places' is more natural. Suggestion: ensure pronouns agree with their antecedents and avoid repetition.

Modal verb usage

× But I do I would like to explore more on the rural side.

But I would like to explore the rural areas more.

The original contains disfluent repetition 'But I do I would like'; remove 'do'. Use 'explore the rural areas more' rather than 'explore more on the rural side' for clearer, idiomatic expression. Suggestion: avoid unnecessary fillers and place 'more' after the object for natural rhythm.

Incorrect use of prepositions

× I prefer uh, views in other countries.

I prefer views in other countries.

Remove filler 'uh' for clarity in writing. Preposition 'in' is acceptable with 'countries'; no grammatical change beyond removing filler. Suggestion: omit hesitations in formal responses.

Incorrect use of prepositions

× in my country the views are mostly covered with uh, sky high buildings and uh, there's not much places to umm, enjoy landscapes.

In my country, the views are mostly blocked by sky-high buildings, and there are not many places to enjoy landscapes.

Use 'blocked by' or 'dominated by' rather than 'covered with' for buildings affecting views. 'Sky-high' should be hyphenated when used as a compound adjective. 'There's not much places' is ungrammatical: 'there are not many places' matches plural 'places' with plural verb 'are' and uses 'many' as the correct quantifier. Remove filler 'uh/umm'. Suggestion: ensure subject-verb number agreement with 'there are' and use correct quantifiers ('many' for countable nouns).
