Do you like to keep things tidy?
Điểm: 70.0Gợi ý: Your answer is clear and directly addresses the question, but it has some grammar errors, a slight redundancy and could include more varied vocabulary and a linking phrase to make it smoother. Try one concise topic sentence, then give a specific example with correct grammar and a linking word. Avoid repeating ideas.
Ví dụ: Yes, I do. I enjoy keeping things tidy because a neat environment helps me focus. For example, I wash and dry my clothes every day and always fold them immediately so they don’t become wrinkled.

How do you keep your work or study space tidy?
Điểm: 60.0Gợi ý: The answer is short and understandable but too brief. Expand with a topic sentence and at least one specific detail or routine, using a linking word to connect ideas. Use correct collocations (e.g., 'clean my desk' rather than 'clean my tables') and mention frequency or method to add content.
Ví dụ: I keep my study space tidy by clearing my desk at the end of each day and wiping down my computer and keyboard. In addition, I use trays to organize papers so everything has a place.
Do you think that it is necessary to be tidy?
Điểm: 50.0Gợi ý: The idea is good but the sentence has grammatical mistakes and unclear phrasing. Begin with a clear topic sentence, then give a specific reason and an example. Use linking words (e.g., 'because', 'for example') and avoid repetition. Improve word choice (e.g., 'tidiness' instead of 'tightness').
Ví dụ: Yes, I think being tidy is important because tidiness reduces stress and helps me concentrate. For example, when my desk is organized I can find documents quickly and feel more relaxed while studying.
× Of course I enjoy keeping things tidy.
✓ Of course, I enjoy keeping things tidy.
Missing comma after introductory 'Of course' is not in list but punctuation not required; sentence fits Grammar Problem Type 8 (verb + -ing) correctly used 'enjoy keeping'. No grammatical change needed except adding a comma for clarity. Suggestion: insert a comma after introductory adverbial phrases.
× For example I will wash my clothes every day and dry thing.
✓ For example, I wash my clothes every day and dry them.
The word 'thing' is singular and vague; the pronoun 'them' is required to refer back to 'clothes' (plural). Also 'will wash' implies future; habitual action should use simple present 'wash'. Error types: 1 (singular/plural) and 6 (present tense). Use plural pronoun 'them' and simple present for habits.
× Yes, I used to keep my room tidy when I was a young boy. It's my habit from my early years.
✓ Yes, I used to keep my room tidy when I was a young boy. It was a habit from my early years.
The second sentence mixes present 'It's' with past context 'used to' and 'early years'. This is a tense consistency problem (6: present tense issue). Change to past 'It was a habit' for coherence. Also 'my' is fine.
× I often clean my tables and my computers.
✓ I often clean my table and my computer.
Unless the student has multiple tables and computers, the plural forms sound odd. This is a singular/plural choice and subject-verb agreement nuance (1 and 27). For typical personal workspace, use singular 'table' and 'computer' or keep plurals if intended. Maintain simple present for habitual action.
× Of course, I think it's very necessary to be tidy because it's it's will a tightness makes me feel relaxing and comfortable.
✓ Of course, I think it's very important to be tidy because neatness makes me feel relaxed and comfortable.
This original sentence has multiple problems: repeated 'it's', incorrect phrase 'it's will a tightness', wrong noun 'tightness' (wrong collocation) and wrong adjective/adverb forms 'relaxing' vs 'relaxed'. Relevant error types: 13 (adjectives/adverbs), 26 (sentence structure), 22/17 (article use) and 6 (tense consistency). The corrected sentence uses 'important' for necessity, 'neatness' as the correct noun, and 'relaxed' and 'comfortable' as adjectives describing feeling. Also remove repetition and fix word order.
