Did you like going to parks as a child?
Candidate
I am not quite fond of going to parks as a child because I found it very, uh, dangerous and at the same time parks very far from our neighborhood, so I don't like going in too far.
Examiner
Do you still like going to parks now?
Candidate
I still don't like going to parks now because it's so tiring to go there and at the same time I don't like the weather because it is so hot and I can't stay longer at the parks because of that. So I prefer staying at home, watching movies, playing with my husband, cooking, cooking.
Examiner
Would you like to see more parks in your city?
Candidate
If I have time to see more parks in our city, why not? But again, I am an indoor person so I prefer staying at home watching movies and doing something else just at home rather than going to parks. Because if it's if the park is.
Examiner
Are there any parks you want to go to in the future?
Candidate
Yeah, there is a park that I want to go in the future and that is in Japan because I love to see cherry blossoms. I love to see the flowers of the cherry blossoms falling on the ground. Then I like the weather in Japan.
Did you like going to parks as a child?
Score: 60.0Suggestion: Be direct with a clear topic sentence, avoid filler words ("uh"), and keep sentences concise. Provide one or two specific supporting details linked logically (use linking words such as 'because' or 'so'). Correct tense: use past tense consistently when talking about childhood.
Example: Not really. I didn’t enjoy going to parks as a child because they felt unsafe and the nearest one was far from my neighborhood, so my family rarely went there.
Do you still like going to parks now?
Score: 65.0Suggestion: Start with a clear topic sentence and avoid repeating ideas ("can't stay longer", repeated 'cooking'). Use linking words to organize reasons (e.g., 'because' and 'therefore'), and give one or two specific activities you prefer instead of repeating. Keep it within 3–4 sentences.
Example: No, I don’t. I find going to parks exhausting because of the heat and the long walk there, so I usually prefer staying at home. For example, I enjoy watching films and cooking with my husband, which feels more comfortable and relaxing.
Would you like to see more parks in your city?
Score: 58.0Suggestion: Answer directly (yes/no/maybe) and give a clear reason. Avoid hesitations and incomplete sentences. Use linking words ('however', 'although') to contrast personal preference with the general idea of more parks. Be specific about conditions under which you would visit parks.
Example: Maybe—I don’t usually go to parks because I’m more of an indoor person; however, I would welcome more parks in the city because they would be useful for people who enjoy outdoor exercise or family outings, and I might visit if the park were close and shaded.
Are there any parks you want to go to in the future?
Score: 75.0Suggestion: Good clear idea and personal reason. Improve by making sentences more concise and using linking words to add detail (e.g., 'because', 'for example'). Replace repetition ('I love to see') with varied vocabulary and correct small grammar (e.g., 'a park I want to visit in the future is in Japan').
Example: Yes. A park I’d like to visit is in Japan because I want to see the cherry blossoms in bloom. For example, I imagine walking under trees as the pink petals fall, and I also enjoy Japan’s mild spring weather.
× I am not quite fond of going to parks as a child because I found it very, uh, dangerous and at the same time parks very far from our neighborhood, so I don't like going in too far.
✓ I was not fond of going to parks as a child because I found them very dangerous and they were far from our neighborhood, so I didn't like going too far away.
The sentence discusses a past habit, so present tense 'am' and 'don't' are incorrect; use past tense 'was' and 'didn't' (Grammar Problem Type ID 6). Also plural and pronoun reference errors: 'parks' should match plural pronoun 'them' (Singular and plural issue, ID 1), and 'going in too far' is awkward — use 'going too far away'. Overall, maintain past tense for childhood habits and ensure pronouns and verbs agree with plural nouns. Suggestion: use past tense verbs for past time references and match pronouns to noun number.
× I am not quite fond of going to parks as a child because I found it very, uh, dangerous and at the same time parks very far from our neighborhood, so I don't like going in too far.
✓ I was not fond of going to parks as a child because I found them very dangerous and they were far from our neighborhood, so I didn't like going too far away.
The original uses singular 'it'/'very' with plural 'parks' and omits plural pronoun. Replace 'it' with 'them' and supply 'they were' to refer to multiple parks (Grammar Problem Type ID 1). Also fix tense to past to match 'as a child'. Suggestion: match pronouns and verbs to plural nouns.
× I still don't like going to parks now because it's so tiring to go there and at the same time I don't like the weather because it is so hot and I can't stay longer at the parks because of that. So I prefer staying at home, watching movies, playing with my husband, cooking, cooking.
✓ I still don't like going to parks because it's tiring to go there, and I don't like the hot weather so I can't stay long at the parks. I prefer staying at home, watching movies, playing with my husband, and cooking.
Tense 'don't like' and 'can't' are correct for present dislikes, but wording is repetitive and some phrases are unidiomatic (Grammar Problem Type ID 6). 'Stay longer at the parks' should be 'stay long at the parks' or 'stay longer in parks' — avoid unnecessary articles and repetition. Remove duplicate 'cooking' and use parallel structure with commas and 'and'. Suggestion: simplify and use natural collocations like 'stay long' or 'stay for long' and keep parallel list items.
× If I have time to see more parks in our city, why not? But again, I am an indoor person so I prefer staying at home watching movies and doing something else just at home rather than going to parks. Because if it's if the park is.
✓ If I have time to visit more parks in our city, why not? But I'm an indoor person, so I prefer staying at home, watching movies, and doing other things at home rather than going to parks.
'If I have time to see more parks' is understandable but more natural is 'visit' (Verb choice; Grammar Problem Type ID 4 for modal/conditional phrasing). The fragment 'Because if it's if the park is.' is an incomplete sentence (Sentence structure errors, ID 26). Also contractions and parallel structure improve fluency. Suggestion: use 'visit' for places, avoid sentence fragments, and keep lists parallel.
× Because if it's if the park is.
✓ (Remove fragment)
This is a sentence fragment without a verb or complete idea (Grammar Problem Type ID 26 and ID 23 'Sentence without a verb'). It should be removed or completed. Suggestion: either complete the thought, e.g. 'Because if the park is far, I won't go,' or delete the fragment to keep the answer coherent.
× Yeah, there is a park that I want to go in the future and that is in Japan because I love to see cherry blossoms.
✓ Yes, there is a park I want to go to in the future, and it is in Japan because I would love to see the cherry blossoms.
Use 'go to' for visiting a place (preposition issue, ID 11) and 'there is' is acceptable but more natural 'Yes, there is a park I want to visit' (There be issue, ID 3). Also use 'would love' or 'want' for future desire and 'the cherry blossoms' needs the definite article (Article errors, ID 22). Suggestion: use 'go to/visit', include appropriate articles, and use modal 'would' for polite future desire.
× I love to see the flowers of the cherry blossoms falling on the ground.
✓ I love watching cherry blossom petals falling to the ground.
'Love to see the flowers of the cherry blossoms' is wordy and awkward; use gerund 'watching' for enjoying an action (Verb + -ing form, ID 8). Also 'flowers of the cherry blossoms' is redundant; 'cherry blossom petals' is natural, and 'falling to the ground' is the preferred collocation. Suggestion: use gerunds for enjoyed activities and concise noun phrases.
× Then I like the weather in Japan.
✓ I also like the weather in Japan.
'Then' is not the best connector here; use 'also' to add information. Tense 'like' is fine (present preference) but connector choice and flow need correction (Grammar Problem Type ID 6). Suggestion: use appropriate linking adverbs like 'also' or 'besides' when adding reasons.
