× Uh yes, I like reading. Uh, there are some reasons why I like reading. Uh, uh, the the main reason is, uh, there are many books that I like to spend the time to read a book, umm, there.
✓ Yes, I like reading. There are several reasons why I enjoy it. The main reason is that there are many books I want to spend time reading.
The original contains repetition, filler words and an unclear sentence structure. Combine fragmented clauses and remove fillers to make a clear, concise answer. Use 'there are' with 'several reasons' and follow with a defining clause 'that I enjoy it.' Use 'want to spend time reading' instead of the redundant phrase 'spend the time to read a book.'
× I used to watch a see a screen because the text that the long text is very is not easy to read, but screen has a videos or text it is very it can be understand understandable to me.
✓ I used to prefer reading on a screen because long texts on paper are not easy to read, and screens also provide videos and text, which I find easier to understand.
The original mixes verbs and has incorrect pronoun/word choices and word order. Replace 'watch a see a screen' with 'prefer reading on a screen.' Clarify comparison by stating 'long texts on paper are not easy to read.' Use 'which I find easier to understand' for clarity and correct pronoun usage.
× MMM, MMM, maybe, uh, when I read the novel, the novel text is very long. So the if I when I understand the book or I more concentrate.
✓ Maybe when I read a novel, the text is very long, so I need to concentrate more to understand the book.
The original has filler sounds, repetition and incorrect clause order. Remove fillers, combine clauses, and use 'need to concentrate more' as a natural phrase. Use 'to understand the book' to express purpose.
× I like reverse scanning, but uh, detail reading is more important. So, so because they are umm, I'm students, so I have to understand the contents, uh, that, uh, relate in my majors. So if I do a good expert.
✓ I like scanning, but detailed reading is more important. Because I am a student, I have to understand the content related to my major, so I try to read carefully.
The original uses 'reverse scanning' and 'detail reading' incorrectly and has adjective/adverb errors. Use 'scanning' and 'detailed reading.' Correct 'I'm students' to 'I am a student.' Use 'content related to my major' and a coherent final clause 'so I try to read carefully.' The sentence also had incomplete thought 'So if I do a good expert,' which was replaced with a complete, relevant idea.
