× Not really actually when I'm supposed to do to take taking pictures of different views, you know, sometimes I just probably, uh, watch it by myself and ask for the history and just enjoy the beautiful views and.
✓ Not really, actually. When I'm supposed to take pictures of different views, sometimes I probably just watch them by myself, ask about the history, and just enjoy the beautiful views.
The original sentence has wrong verb forms and extra words: 'to take taking' is incorrect duplication; use the base form after 'supposed to' (Grammar ID 8). 'Watch it by myself' uses incorrect pronoun and verb-object agreement; 'them' matches 'pictures' and 'watch' is acceptable. Also remove filler words and add punctuation for clarity. Suggested improvement: After 'supposed to' use the base verb (take). Ensure pronouns match their antecedents (pictures -> them). Use commas or split into sentences to avoid run-on sentences.
× I prefer views in rural areas because I think rural area has a better condition of air and, uh, people around rural is quite quiet and there's not a huge population there.
✓ I prefer views in rural areas because I think rural areas have better air quality, people in rural areas are quite quiet, and the population is not very large there.
Errors include incorrect singular/plural agreement: 'rural area has' should be 'rural areas have' to match 'views in rural areas' (Grammar ID 1). 'People around rural is' is ungrammatical; use 'people in rural areas are'. Also 'condition of air' is awkward; use 'air quality'. Suggested improvement: Keep number agreement consistent between subjects and verbs (areas -> have). Use standard collocations like 'air quality' and place adjectives before nouns correctly.
× I prefer views in other countries because I can see views in my country normally so that I I I'm looking forward to the different views and I like to travel around and to see the views see.
✓ I prefer views in other countries because I can usually see the views in my own country, so I'm looking forward to different views. I like to travel around and see them.
Problems: repeated words ('I I I'm'), unnecessary repetition of 'see the views see', and awkward pronoun use 'my country' vs 'my own country'. Also sentence structure is run-on and needs punctuation (Grammar ID 12 and 26). Replace repetitions and use 'them' to refer back to 'views'. Suggested improvement: Avoid repetition, use pronouns consistently, and break long thoughts into shorter sentences. Use 'usually' for frequency and 'my own country' for clarity.
