Part 1

Did you have any opportunities to take part in new activities as a child?

Score: 48.0

Suggestion: Be more concise and clear: start with a direct topic sentence, then give one or two specific supporting details with correct grammar and simple linking words. Correct tense and word choice (e.g., "When I was a child...") will make your answer natural. Avoid filler words like "what's up" and "yeah."

Example: When I was a child, I had several opportunities to try new activities. For example, I moved from kindergarten to a new elementary school, which exposed me to different clubs, and I joined a music club where I learned to sing and perform. This experience was exciting and helped me become more confident.

Should people try as many different things as they can?

Score: 52.0

Suggestion: Give a clear opinion sentence, then support it with specific reasons and a linking phrase. Use precise vocabulary (e.g., "beneficial," "broadens horizons") and avoid hesitation phrases like "kind of" or "yeah." Keep it to 2–3 sentences.

Example: Yes, I think people should try different things because it broadens their horizons and helps them discover new interests. For instance, trying new hobbies or jobs can improve skills and make life more enjoyable.

Grammar

Sentence structure errors

× Yes, what's up at time when I was a child I went to a new elementary school from the kindergarten and I went to a mass club and that's pretty interesting to me and yeah, I was pretty lucky.

✓ Yes. When I was a child, I moved from kindergarten to a new elementary school. I also joined a marching club, which was very interesting to me, and I felt pretty lucky.

The original sentence is a run-on with unclear phrases and incorrect collocations. 'What's up at time' is ungrammatical and should be 'When I was a child'. 'I went to a new elementary school from the kindergarten' is awkward; use 'moved from kindergarten to a new elementary school' to show transition. 'Mass club' is likely a wrong word choice; 'marching club' or 'music club' is clearer depending on meaning. The sentence also needs punctuation to separate ideas. Suggestion: break into shorter sentences, use correct prepositions for movement ('from... to...'), and choose correct nouns ('joined' a club).

Incorrect use of pronouns

× Yes, I believe so because I'm kind of like a person who really wants to try some new things that comes in nowadays because I would say I'm pretty excited for the new things and yeah.

✓ Yes, I believe so because I am the kind of person who really wants to try new things that come up nowadays. I would say I am pretty excited about new experiences.

Errors include subject-verb agreement for 'things that comes' (plural 'things' requires 'come'), awkward phrasing 'I'm kind of like a person' (use 'I am the kind of person'), and incorrect preposition 'excited for' (use 'excited about'). Also 'comes in nowadays' is ungrammatical; use 'come up nowadays' or 'are available nowadays'. Suggestions: use proper subject-verb agreement, avoid filler phrasing, and choose correct prepositions ('excited about').
