Do you often go to the library?
Candidato
Well, to be honest, I would say I'm not really a big fan of using the library. Don't get me wrong, this is not because I have anything personal against libraries, it is just because I prefer reading in my own space in an environment that I am used to. Besides, I don't like the hassle of walking down to the nearby library simply because I want to reach.

What do you usually do in the library?
Candidato
Well, for the most part, if I go to the library, I majorly use the books in the library. These books are books that I do not have at home, and many of these books are not easily accessible online. So whenever I find myself in the library, I ensure to use the library books to study.

Did you go to the library when you were a kid?

Absolutely yes. When I was a kid, going to the library was one of the traditions we had back then. Our family every weekend would take a trip down to the nearest library and would pick a book together. After reading, we get home and give lessons learned from.

Do Chinese kids often go to the library?
Candidato
More often than not, Chinese kids do not visit the library. This is because going to the library would entail them learning a new language or trying to read books in English language and their more traditional speakers than English speakers in China. Because of this, it deters people from using the libel kids.

× Besides, I don't like the hassle of walking down to the nearby library simply because I want to reach.
✓ Besides, I don't like the hassle of walking down to the nearby library simply because I want to go there.
The verb 'reach' is incorrectly used without an object or preposition. The correct phrase is 'go there' to indicate the destination. Using 'reach' requires an object, e.g., 'reach the library.' Here, 'go there' is more natural and grammatically correct.
× Our family every weekend would take a trip down to the nearest library and would pick a book together.
✓ Our family would take a trip to the nearest library every weekend and pick a book together.
The phrase 'every weekend' is better placed after the verb phrase for natural word order. Also, 'take a trip down to' is wordy; 'take a trip to' is sufficient. The correction improves sentence flow and preposition use.
× After reading, we get home and give lessons learned from.
✓ After reading, we get home and share the lessons we learned.
The original sentence is incomplete and awkward. 'Give lessons learned from' is incorrect; it should be 'share the lessons we learned' to clearly express the intended meaning.
× This is because going to the library would entail them learning a new language or trying to read books in English language and their more traditional speakers than English speakers in China.
✓ This is because going to the library would entail them learning a new language or trying to read books in English, and they are more traditional speakers than English speakers in China.
The pronoun 'their' is incorrectly used; it should be 'they are' to correctly refer to the subject. Also, the sentence is clarified by adding a comma and restructuring for better meaning.
× Because of this, it deters people from using the libel kids.
✓ Because of this, it deters kids from using the library.
The phrase 'using the libel kids' is incorrect and confusing. It should be 'using the library' to make sense. The sentence structure is corrected to convey the intended meaning clearly.
