× It is famous for its historical size and its original geography areas.

✓ It is famous for its historical sites and its original geographic areas.

The student used 'size' instead of the noun 'sites' and 'geography areas' is not idiomatic. Use the adjective 'geographic' to modify 'areas'. Replace incorrect word choices with correct nouns/adjectives to convey meaning accurately. Suggestion: learn common collocations such as 'historical sites' and 'geographic areas'.

× It has a National Park, which is the good place.

✓ It has a national park, which is a good place.

'National Park' should not be capitalized unless it is the proper name; use the indefinite article 'a' before 'good place' rather than 'the' because 'good place' is non-specific. Also use lowercase 'national park' for a common noun. Suggestion: use 'a' for non-specific singular nouns and reserve 'the' for specific items already known to the listener.

× Am a fan of history so the most favorite thing about my hometown is there are a lot of historical sites from different dynasty.

✓ I am a fan of history, so my favorite thing about my hometown is that there are a lot of historical sites from different dynasties.

The original sentence lacks the subject 'I' and mixes clauses incorrectly. 'Most favorite' is redundant; use 'favorite'. Also 'there are' clause should be introduced with 'that' and 'dynasty' should be plural 'dynasties'. Suggestion: always include the subject in a sentence, avoid redundant modifiers, and ensure clause connectors like 'that' are used to join ideas.

× My hometown has one of the biggest force uh famous towers in.

✓ My hometown has one of the biggest and most famous towers.

The original sentence is ungrammatical and contains filler words ('uh') and unclear structure ('force' is incorrect). Use the comparative structure 'one of the biggest and most famous towers' to express meaning clearly and remove fillers. Suggestion: plan the sentence before speaking, avoid filler words, and use parallel adjectives with conjunctions.

× I lived there for 20 years before I moved to Beijing with my whole family.

✓ I lived there for 20 years before I moved to Beijing with my whole family.

This sentence is grammatically correct in tense and structure; no change needed. It correctly uses the past simple to describe completed past actions. Suggestion: none.

× The time I lived there was really fascinating and I really enjoyed the time there.

✓ The time I lived there was really enjoyable and I really appreciated my time there.

While the original is understandable, 'fascinating' usually describes things that arouse interest rather than personal experience; 'enjoyable' or 'pleasant' fits better. Also repeat 'time' is redundant; rephrase to avoid repetition. Suggestion: vary vocabulary to avoid repetition and pick adjectives that fit personal experiences.

× Yes, I think my hometown is a good place for young people because at my hometown, young people have relatively more chance to be exposed to the natural size than those children grow up in big cities.

✓ Yes, I think my hometown is a good place for young people because, in my hometown, young people have relatively more chances to be exposed to the natural side than children who grow up in big cities.

Use 'in' not 'at' for towns. 'Chance' should be plural 'chances' after 'more'. 'Natural size' is incorrect — likely intended 'natural side'. Also compare groups with 'children who grow up in big cities'. Suggestion: use correct prepositions ('in' a place), match countable nouns with plural forms, and use clear comparative clauses.
