Do you like science?
Score: 62.0Suggestion: Be more concise and organized: start with a clear topic sentence stating whether you like science now, then give one or two specific supporting details (when and why). Avoid fillers and grammar mistakes (use present/past tense correctly). Use linking words like "because" and "especially" properly.
Example: Yes, I do. I particularly enjoyed science in high school because the concepts seemed straightforward and I was good at remembering scientific facts and history. For example, I found learning about famous experiments and discoveries really engaging.
When did you start to learn about science?
Score: 60.0Suggestion: Answer directly with correct tense and a clear time reference, then briefly explain why. Use a linking word (because/so) and correct article use ("a mandatory subject").
Example: I started learning science in middle school because it was a mandatory subject, so all students had to attend the classes from the first year of middle school.
Which science subject is interesting to you?
Score: 55.0Suggestion: Give a direct topic sentence naming the subjects, then add one specific reason for each. Avoid repeating "interesting" and fix vocabulary (say "biology" and "chemistry").
Example: I find biology and chemistry most interesting. Biology fascinates me because it explains how living things function, while chemistry appeals to me because of the many reactions and practical experiments we can perform.
What kinds of interesting things have you done with science?
Score: 50.0Suggestion: Be specific: name one or two experiments and describe what you did or observed using linking words (for example, such as). Avoid vague phrases like "kind of" and "we did kind of."
Example: At school we did several hands-on experiments. For example, we observed a chemical reaction between baking soda and vinegar to produce carbon dioxide, and we also studied plant cells under a microscope to see their structure.
Do you like watching science TV programs?
Score: 58.0Suggestion: Start with a clear direct answer (Yes/No), then give a concise reason and, if possible, contrast past and present using linking words like "but" or "now". Correct tense and article usage ("programs").
Example: No, I don't. Although I was very interested in science when I was younger, these days I rarely watch science programs because my interests have shifted to other topics.
Do Chinese people often visit science museums?
Score: 57.0Suggestion: Answer honestly and directly: state you don't know, then offer relevant personal information as a comparison. Use correct phrasing ("I'm not Chinese, so I can't say for sure") and avoid confusing place names.
Example: I'm not Chinese, so I can't say for sure. However, in Korea many families visit science museums frequently; where I live there is a large science center that attracts many parents with their children on weekends.
× Uh, I like science, but especially when I was in high school, I like to learn about the science because it's quite, I think quite simple.
✓ I like science, especially when I was in high school I liked learning about science because I thought it was quite simple.
Tense consistency: the sentence mixes present 'I like' with past context 'when I was in high school'. Change to past 'I liked' and use 'liked learning' to match. Also remove unnecessary 'the' before 'science' and streamline phrasing. Suggestion: keep past tense for activities tied to a past time and avoid redundant words.
× And then I'm quite good at memorize about the science history.
✓ And I was quite good at memorizing science history.
Verb form: 'good at' requires a noun or gerund, so use 'memorizing' not base verb 'memorize'. Remove 'about' after memorize and 'the' before 'science history'. Also use past tense 'was' to match previous past context. Suggestion: use gerunds after 'good at' and ensure tense consistency.
× I think when I was in middle school student I start to study about science because one of the mandatory subject is the science, so I have to enter in the classes.
✓ I think when I was a middle school student I started to study science because one of the mandatory subjects was science, so I had to attend the classes.
Multiple tense and agreement issues: 'start' should be past 'started' to match 'when I was'. Use article 'a' before 'middle school student'. 'Study about science' is unnatural—use 'study science'. 'One of the mandatory subject' needs plural 'subjects'. 'Is the science' should be 'was science' for past reference and omit 'the'. 'Have to enter in the classes' is wrong collocation; use 'had to attend the classes'. Suggestion: maintain past tense for past events, use correct collocations like 'attend classes'.
× Of which subject is interesting to me, especially biologic and chemical, because it's quite interesting because of the there is a lot of things.
✓ The subjects that interest me are biology and chemistry because they are interesting and there are a lot of things to learn.
Pronoun and noun form errors: 'Of which subject is interesting to me' is ungrammatical—use 'The subjects that interest me'. Use correct noun forms 'biology' and 'chemistry' instead of adjectives 'biologic' and 'chemical'. Avoid repeating 'interesting'. Replace 'there is a lot of things' with 'there are a lot of things' to match plural. Suggestion: use noun forms for academic subjects and ensure subject-verb agreement with 'there are'.
× I think kind of money experiment at school because usually teacher use kind of the experiments to engage the students.
✓ I think kinds of experiments at school, because usually teachers use experiments to engage students.
Incorrect quantifier and collocation: 'kind of money experiment' is incorrect; likely 'kinds of experiments' is intended. Use plural 'teachers' and drop unnecessary 'the' and 'kind of' before 'the experiments'. Also 'money' is wrong word. Suggestion: use 'kinds of experiments' or 'kind of experiment' appropriately and match plural forms.
× So I did a lot of things. For example we have done like watching reaction of the chemistries and then we did kind of.
✓ So I did a lot of activities. For example, we watched chemical reactions and did various experiments.
Verb form and collocation: 'have done like watching reaction of the chemistries' is ungrammatical. Use simple past 'watched' to match narrative. Use 'chemical reactions' not 'chemistries'. 'Did kind of' is incomplete—clarify as 'did various experiments'. Suggestion: use clear nouns 'chemical reactions' and appropriate past tense verbs.
× No, really, because when I was young I really interested in the science, but this day I'm not really interested in the science.
✓ No, not really, because when I was young I was really interested in science, but these days I'm not really interested in science.
Tense and number errors: 'when I was young I really interested' needs auxiliary 'was'. Use plural time phrase 'these days' for present habit. Remove 'the' before 'science'. Suggestion: include 'was' for past states and use 'these days' for current habitual situations.
× So that's why I'm I don't like watching science TV program now.
✓ So that's why I don't like watching science TV programs now.
Pronoun redundancy and article/number: remove extra 'I'm'. Use plural 'programs' or 'program' with article. Suggestion: proofread to remove duplicated words and ensure correct singular/plural for countable nouns.
× So I'm not Chinese people so I don't know about it, but in Korea many people often be the Science Museum because where I live in Deltona is one of the biggest science cities, so that's why many people visit it there with their kids.
✓ I'm not Chinese, so I don't know about it, but in Korea many people often visit science museums because the city where I live, Deltona, is one of the biggest science cities, so many people visit them with their kids.
Pronoun and verb errors: 'I'm not Chinese people' should be 'I'm not Chinese'. 'Many people often be the Science Museum' is wrong—use 'visit science museums'. Fix word order 'where I live in Deltona' to 'the city where I live, Deltona'. Match plural 'museums' with 'them'. Suggestion: use 'visit' for attending places and ensure correct noun phrases and plural agreement.
