What is your favourite food?
Puntuación: 56.0Sugerencia: Be more natural and concise: start with a clear topic sentence, avoid repetition and grammar errors, and add a specific reason or brief example. Use linking words if you add details. Keep to no more than 4–5 sentences.
Ejemplo: My favourite food is sweet and sour chicken. I often order it at restaurants because I enjoy the contrast between the crispy batter and the tangy sauce. For example, last week I finished an entire plate by myself because the flavours were so satisfying.
What kind of food did you like when you were young?
Puntuación: 62.0Sugerencia: Give a clear topic sentence, fix grammar (past tense and singular/plural), and provide one specific detail or short memory. Use a linking word to connect reason to the topic sentence.
Ejemplo: When I was young, I loved grilled sausages. They had a crispy skin and juicy inside, which always satisfied my appetite. I remember my parents grilling them during summer picnics, and the smell still makes me hungry.
Do you eat different foods at different times of the year?
Puntuación: 58.0Sugerencia: Organize answers clearly: begin with a direct statement, then list seasonal examples in a logical order using linking words (for example, in spring, in summer). Correct repetitions and awkward phrases, and be specific about one or two foods only.
Ejemplo: Yes, I eat different foods each season. In spring I enjoy zongzi, a glutinous rice snack, and sometimes crab. In summer I prefer cold soups and refreshing fruits, while in winter my family gathers to make dumplings.
Has your favourite food changed since you were a child?
Puntuación: 54.0Sugerencia: Start with a clear contrast sentence, correct grammar and vocabulary (e.g., "healthier"), avoid fillers, and give a concise reason for the change. Provide a brief example of a new favourite dish to be specific.
Ejemplo: Yes, my tastes have changed. I used to like sweet and spicy dishes, but now I prefer healthier, milder foods such as steamed vegetables and grilled fish because I value health over indulgence. For example, I often choose a steamed salmon and salad for dinner.
× I would always order them when I go to the restaurant.
✓ I would always order it when I go to the restaurant.
The noun 'sour and sweet chicken' is singular (a dish), so the pronoun should be singular 'it' rather than plural 'them'. Use consistent number agreement between nouns and pronouns. Suggestion: Determine whether the food is treated as countable/plural or a single dish and match pronouns accordingly.
× I can finish them in one go with by myself and it's a master must have for me.
✓ I can finish it in one go by myself and it's an absolute must-have for me.
Multiple issues: pronoun number (use 'it' for singular dish) and incorrect phrase 'with by myself' — only 'by myself' is needed. Also 'master must have' is incorrect collocation; 'absolute must-have' fits. Suggestion: Remove duplicate preposition and use correct collocation.
× That's really delicious.
✓ That's really delicious.
No grammatical correction needed; sentence is correct. Kept here to indicate it's acceptable and requires no change.
× I liked grilled sausages when I was a child because it has crispy crust and the juicy flesh inside it can could satisfy my appetite all the time.
✓ I liked grilled sausages when I was a child because they had a crispy crust and the juicy flesh inside could satisfy my appetite all the time.
Multiple errors: tense and pronoun agreement. 'I liked' sets past tense, so follow with past forms: 'they had' rather than 'it has'. Also 'sausages' is plural so use 'they' and 'crust' should be 'a crispy crust'. Remove the duplicated modal 'can could' and use 'could' to match past tense. Suggestion: Keep verb tenses consistent and match pronouns to plural nouns.
× That's my favorite stuff.
✓ Those were my favorite things.
Original mixes present 'That's' with past context 'I liked... when I was a child'. Also 'stuff' is informal and vague; use 'things' and match number: 'sausages' plural -> 'those' or simply 'they were my favorites'. Suggestion: Align tense and choose clearer nouns.
× Yes, my diet varies with season.
✓ Yes, my diet varies with the seasons.
Use definite article and plural: 'the seasons' is the common collocation when speaking generally about seasons. Suggestion: Use 'the seasons' or 'the season' depending on intended meaning.
× Like in the spring I the like I love to have zhongji, which is a glutinous rice snack and in summer I'd like to have soup that's cold.
✓ For example, in the spring I love to have zhongji, which is a glutinous rice snack, and in summer I'd like to have cold soup.
Original has word order and duplication errors ('I the like I love') and awkward clause order. Rearranged to remove redundancy and place modifiers ('cold') before the noun 'soup'. Suggestion: Remove repeated words, use linking phrases like 'for example', and put adjectives before nouns.
× In spring I will have crabs.
✓ In spring I have crabs.
Using 'will' here is unnecessary for habitual seasonal actions; use present simple to express regular occurrences. Suggestion: Use present simple for routines and seasonal habits.
× Anyway, in winter we'll all gather to for dumplings.
✓ Anyway, in winter we'll all gather to make dumplings.
The phrase 'gather to for dumplings' has an extra preposition; the correct verb for preparing dumplings is 'make' or 'eat'. Suggestion: Use 'gather to make dumplings' or 'gather to eat dumplings' depending on meaning.
× That's my, uh, seasonal.
✓ That's my seasonal favorite.
Original is fragmentary and awkward. 'Seasonal' is an adjective and needs a noun; 'seasonal favorite' completes the idea. Suggestion: Avoid sentence fragments and pair adjectives with nouns.
× Yes, I used to prefer sweet and spicy food when I was a child, but now I prefer to eat something bland and healthy like vegetables and uh uh, fish.
✓ Yes, I used to prefer sweet and spicy food when I was a child, but now I prefer to eat something bland and healthy, like vegetables and fish.
Main issue is filler 'uh uh' which should be removed in writing. Otherwise tense contrast is correct ('used to' vs 'now I prefer'). Suggestion: Remove disfluencies and add a comma before the list for clarity.
× So because I value house much more than appetite.
✓ So I value health much more than appetite.
'House' is a wrong word choice; likely intended 'health'. The original sentence fragment 'So because...' is ungrammatical; remove 'because' or complete the clause. Here 'So I value health much more than appetite.' is clear. Suggestion: Choose correct vocabulary and ensure sentence has a subject and verb.
