× Definitely, since I am a traveller and I've always seen the beauty in all things and I believe that an object is.
✓ Definitely. Since I am a traveller, I've always seen the beauty in all things, and I believe that every object has beauty.
Original sentence is run-on and ends abruptly with 'an object is' which is incomplete. This is a sentence structure error (ID 26). Combine ideas into clear sentences and complete the thought by specifying what you believe about objects. Use punctuation to separate clauses and add the verb phrase 'has beauty' to complete the sentence.
× I mean, an object has different angles if you're just willing to look at it.
✓ I mean, an object shows different angles if you are just willing to look at it.
The original is acceptable but 'you're' is informal contraction; to match speaking-test tone, expand and use a clearer verb. This was flagged as present participle/verb choice (ID 10). Replacing 'has' with 'shows' clarifies meaning and using 'you are' improves formality. Ensure verb choice accurately reflects intended meaning.
× Since I've mentioned that I really love nature, I've always preferred the views and scenes in rural areas because I've seen lots of beautiful plants and mountains and everything that the urban area cannot offer.
✓ As I mentioned, I really love nature, so I have always preferred rural views and scenes because I have seen many beautiful plants, mountains, and other things that urban areas cannot offer.
Original contains awkward phrasing and redundancy ('Since I've mentioned' and 'I've always preferred' together) and inconsistent singular/plural ('urban area' vs 'urban areas'). This is a sentence structure error (ID 26) and minor singular/plural issue (ID 1). Improve by simplifying the opening phrase, using consistent plural forms, and replacing 'lots of' with 'many' for clarity.
× I would definitely prefer the views in my own country, the Philippines, in terms of the greenish things or the, you know, the plants and everything, the natural resources.
✓ I would definitely prefer the views in my own country, the Philippines, in terms of greenery, plants, and natural resources.
Original uses informal filler words and awkward phrase 'the greenish things or the, you know, the plants and everything.' This is an article/word-choice error (ID 22) and style issue. Use the uncountable noun 'greenery' and list items clearly without filler. Remove unnecessary articles and informal phrases for clarity.
× But when we are talking about the city life and buildings, well then I prefer the USA.
✓ However, when talking about city life and buildings, I prefer the United States.
Original has informal discourse markers ('well then') and uses 'the USA' which is acceptable but 'the United States' is more formal. This is a sentence structure/style error (ID 26). Remove filler words, use a smoother connector ('However') and the more formal country name to fit speaking-test register.
