What is your favourite food?
Pontuação: 45.0Sugestão: Clarify and correct vocabulary, make sentences concise and coherent, and avoid repetition. Start with a clear topic sentence naming the dish, briefly describe key ingredients and why you like it, and keep to 2–4 sentences. Use linking words like ‘because’ or ‘and’ to connect ideas and check grammar (e.g., ‘I really enjoy its rich broth and fresh herbs’).
Exemplo: My favourite food is broccoli pho, a traditional Vietnamese noodle soup. I enjoy its rich, savory broth and the freshness of the herbs and broccoli. Because it’s light but flavorful, I often choose it when I want something healthy and comforting.
What kind of food did you like when you were young?
Pontuação: 40.0Sugestão: Use correct tense and natural phrases, give a clear topic sentence, and provide one specific reason or example. Avoid filler words and repeated 'so'. Use linking words like ‘because’ or ‘as’ to explain why you liked sweets. Correct vocabulary: ‘when I was young’, ‘fond of’, ‘attractive’.
Exemplo: When I was young, I was fond of sweets such as cake and candy because they were colorful and tasted good. At that time I didn’t pay much attention to nutrition, so I often chose visually appealing snacks over healthy options.
Do you eat different foods at different times of the year?
Pontuação: 50.0Sugestão: Make sentences grammatically correct and concise; use specific examples and appropriate linking words (e.g., ‘in summer’, ‘however in winter’) and correct vocabulary (‘easy to digest’ not ‘hard’, ‘soup’ not ‘sheep’). Keep to 2–3 sentences with clear contrast. Mention typical dishes or reasons briefly.
Exemplo: My eating habits change with the seasons. In summer I prefer light foods such as salads and cold rice dishes because they’re refreshing, however in winter I choose hot soups and noodles to keep warm.
Has your favourite food changed since you were a child?
Pontuação: 45.0Sugestão: Answer directly and clearly: state whether it changed and give a brief reason and example. Fix vocabulary and expressions (‘when I was a child’, ‘I loved fast food’, ‘healthier options’). Avoid repetition and unnecessary fillers. Use linking words like ‘now’ and ‘because’ to show contrast and reason.
Exemplo: Yes, my favourite foods have changed since I was a child. As a child I loved fast food such as burgers, but now I prefer healthier options like Vietnamese street food because I appreciate fresher ingredients and subtler flavours.
× So my favorite food is broccoli pho, a traditional Vietnamese dish.
✓ So my favorite food is broccoli pho, a traditional Vietnamese dish.
No change needed; sentence is grammatically correct regarding singular/plural. Keep as is.
× So I really enjoy is ruk bra and a combination of fresh herb.
✓ I really enjoy ruk bra, which is made with a combination of fresh herbs.
The original sentence has an incorrect verb structure ('enjoy is') and missing plurality ('herb' should be 'herbs'). Use a relative clause 'which is made with' to connect the ideas and make 'herbs' plural to match standard countable noun usage.
× We create a distinctive and flavorful taste.
✓ It creates a distinctive and flavorful taste.
Pronoun reference is unclear: 'We create' suggests the speaker and others create the taste, but for describing a dish the neutral 'it creates' or 'it has' is more appropriate. Change to 'it creates' to correctly describe the dish's quality.
× So it's a dish that I never get time eating it.
✓ So it's a dish that I never have time to eat.
Incorrect verb phrase 'get time eating it' and redundant object pronoun 'it'. Use the correct expression 'have time to eat' to convey inability to find time to eat the dish; remove the extra 'it'.
× So when I was a guy, so I was particularly fun of sweet food like cake and candy.
✓ When I was a child, I was particularly fond of sweet foods like cake and candy.
Several issues: 'guy' is informal/misplaced for childhood reference — use 'child'. 'Fun of' is incorrect; correct idiom is 'fond of'. 'Sweet food' should be plural 'sweet foods' when giving examples. Also remove redundant 'so' at the start.
× So at at that time I didn't really pay attention to nutrients and I was mentally attracted to surely visually appealing snacks.
✓ At that time I didn't really pay attention to nutrition, and I was mainly attracted to visually appealing snacks.
Fix duplicated 'at', replace 'nutrients' with 'nutrition' to refer to diet in general, change 'mentally attracted to surely visually appealing' which is ungrammatical to 'mainly attracted to visually appealing'. Use adverb 'mainly' and adjective phrase 'visually appealing' correctly.
× So my eating habit changed depending on the season.
✓ My eating habits change depending on the season.
Tense and number: use present simple 'change' to describe habitual behaviour, and plural 'habits' is more natural. The original used past 'changed' which conflicts with the general habitual time frame.
× So in summer I prefer eating light food and like salad and cold food because it's hard.
✓ In summer I prefer eating light foods, like salads and cold dishes, because it is hot.
Multiple issues: 'light food' should be plural 'light foods'; 'salad' plural 'salads' when giving examples; 'cold food' better as 'cold dishes'; 'because it's hard' is wrong — likely intended 'because it is hot'. Adjust article and noun plurality.
× But in the winter so I prefer eating hot food like sheep or noodle because they keep me warm.
✓ In winter I prefer eating hot foods like soup or noodles because they keep me warm.
Remove redundant connectors 'but' and 'so'. Correct 'sheep' (wrong word) to 'soup', make 'noodle' plural 'noodles', and use 'foods' plural. Ensure subject-verb agreement 'they keep me warm' is fine with plural nouns.
× I definitely change what I eat throughout the years.
✓ I definitely change what I eat throughout the year.
'Throughout the years' suggests over many years; for seasonal variety use 'throughout the year' meaning across the seasons. Also present simple 'change' is acceptable for habitual variation.
× So actually, yeah, so it has changed.
✓ Actually, yes, it has changed.
Remove redundant fillers 'so' and use 'yes' instead of 'yeah' for more formal response. The tense 'has changed' is appropriate to indicate change from past to present.
× When I was a job, I really love fast food like burgers, but now that I'm older, so I prefer healthier option like Vietnamese street food or Hum Cook Mirror.
✓ When I had a job, I really loved fast food like burgers, but now that I'm older, I prefer healthier options like Vietnamese street food or home-cooked meals.
'When I was a job' is incorrect — use 'when I had a job' or better 'when I was younger'. Past preference requires past tense 'loved'. 'Healthier option' should be plural 'options', and 'Hum Cook Mirror' is unintelligible; likely intended 'home-cooked meals' so replace with that. Remove redundant 'so'.
× So my taste has definitely become more mature over time.
✓ My taste has definitely become more mature over time.
Remove unnecessary filler 'so'. The sentence is otherwise correct: present perfect 'has become' correctly describes gradual change up to the present.
