Điểm: 72.0Gợi ý: Your answer is relevant and gives reasons, but has some repetition, minor grammar errors and slightly informal hesitations.

Ví dụ: Yes, when I was a child I enjoyed watching cartoons, especially English-language ones. I also played ball games with my friends in the park; for example, I often played football after school, which helped me stay active and sociable.

Avoid subjective absolutes like 'a little bit boring'—give precise reasons.
Ví dụ: No, my hobbies are different from my family’s. Whereas they prefer reading books and watching the news, I find those activities less engaging; I prefer more active pastimes like going to the gym because they help me stay energetic.
× Watching the news help me improve my English skills and keeps me informed about world events.
✓ Watching the news helps me improve my English skills and keeps me informed about world events.
Subject 'Watching the news' is singular gerund phrase, so verb should be third person singular 'helps'. Use 'helps' to match subject-verb agreement; 'keeps' is already correct.
× So so that's the reason why I like it.
✓ So that's the reason why I like it.
Repeated 'So' is a speaking filler and creates awkward repetition. Remove the duplicate to make the sentence concise; keep one 'So' for emphasis.
× Yes, I had any copies when I was a child, like watching cartoons, English cartoons and training with ball and maybe get play games online games.
✓ Yes, I did many things when I was a child, like watching cartoons, English cartoons, training with a ball, and maybe playing online games.
'any copies' is incorrect and unclear; 'many things' fits the intended meaning. Use 'did' for past activities. 'training with ball' needs article 'a ball'. 'get play games online games' should be 'playing online games' — use gerund after 'maybe' for activities.
× That's so interesting for me so.
✓ That was so interesting for me.
In past context ('when I was a child') use past tense 'was' and avoid trailing 'so'. Use simple adjective 'interesting' and remove redundant 'so' at end.
× Yes, of course. I have a hobby that I have had since childhood. It's training.
✓ Yes, of course. I have had a hobby since childhood: training.
Repeating 'have' is redundant. Combine into one clear sentence using present perfect 'have had' and a colon for clarification.
× Today's day I train.
✓ Nowadays I train.
'Today's day' is ungrammatical; use 'Nowadays' to refer to current habitual actions. Keep present simple for routines: 'I train' or 'I train every day'.
× I'm training every day because I'm interested in training, because it helps me to keep keeping fit, so.
✓ I train every day because I'm interested in training; it helps me keep fit.
For habitual actions, use present simple 'I train every day' rather than present continuous. Remove duplicate 'because' and the redundant 'to keep keeping'. Use 'keep fit'.
× No, because my family members prefer to read a book or maybe watching news, but I'm not interested in that because I think it's a little bit boring and I feel exhausted when I do this things.
✓ No, my family members prefer to read books or maybe watch the news, but I'm not interested in that because I think it's a bit boring and I feel exhausted when I do these things.
Use plural 'books' for general preference. Use 'watch the news' with definite article. Use base form 'watch' after 'prefer to'. 'a little bit' can be 'a bit'. 'this things' should be 'these things' (demonstrative pronoun agreement).
