範例: When I was young, I preferred unhealthy snacks like fried chicken and French fries because my parents often forbade them, which made them seem more appealing. However, now I choose healthier options such as grilled fish and salads.

分數: 75.0建議: Good structure and clear contrast. Improve naturalness by removing repetitive phrases and using smoother linking words. Be more specific about examples of ‘fresh and light’ foods and explain briefly why.

Has your favourite food changed since you were a child?
分數: 50.0建議: Answer directly and clearly. Start with a topic sentence saying whether your favourite changed, then give concise supporting details and examples. Avoid hesitations, repetitions and unclear phrases like “eat in once another day.”
範例: Yes and no. I have tried many international cuisines over the years, so my tastes have broadened, but I am not very picky — I still enjoy a wide variety of foods rather than having a single favourite.
× Well, for me, I nearly like a wide range of food, but I especially like sushi.
✓ For me, I nearly like a wide range of foods, but I especially like sushi.
Grammar problem type ID:1 Singular and plural issue. 'a wide range of food' is less natural; when referring to multiple kinds, use plural 'foods' or 'a wide range of food' can be acceptable but inconsistent with 'nearly like'. Also 'nearly like' is incorrect usage (not in list) so only plural adjusted to match list. Suggestion: say 'I like a wide range of foods' for clarity.
× When I was younger, I prefer to eat, umm, fried chickens or something like French fries.
✓ When I was younger, I preferred to eat fried chicken or things like French fries.
Grammar problem type ID:6 Present tense issue. The sentence refers to the past ('When I was younger') but uses present 'prefer'. Change to past 'preferred' to maintain tense consistency. Also 'fried chickens' is incorrect; 'fried chicken' is an uncountable or mass noun when referring to the dish. Use 'things like' rather than 'something like' when listing items.
× Those kind of food, uh, were usually prohibited by parents, so that's the way it attract appeals to me.
✓ Those kinds of food were usually prohibited by my parents, so that made them more appealing to me.
Grammar problem type ID:1 Singular and plural issue. 'Those kind of food' should be 'those kinds of food' (plural agreement). Also 'parents' lacks possessive; 'my parents' is appropriate. The clause 'that's the way it attract appeals to me' is ungrammatical and not listed; corrected to 'made them more appealing to me' to convey meaning and agreement.
× But, uh, for now, I like more healthy food.
✓ But now, I prefer to eat healthier food.
Grammar problem type ID:6 Present tense issue. 'for now' fits present but 'I like more healthy food' is awkward; use 'I prefer' for current preference and 'healthier food' (comparative adjective) to indicate relative healthiness. This aligns tense and word form.
× Sure, because Taiwan is a country which is quite hot in summer and also due to the environmental heating.
✓ Sure, because Taiwan is quite hot in summer and also due to global warming.
Grammar problem type ID:11 Incorrect use of prepositions. 'a country which is quite hot in summer' is acceptable but 'due to the environmental heating' is awkward and unidiomatic. Replace with 'due to global warming' or 'because of the heat' to correct prepositional/phrase use.
× When in during summer I would like to eat something more like fresh and light, and during winter I will prefer to eat hot pots.
✓ In summer I like to eat foods that are fresher and lighter, and in winter I prefer to eat hot pot.
Grammar problem type ID:6 Present tense issue. Remove redundant words 'in during', use present simple for habitual preferences: 'I like' and 'I prefer'. 'fresh and light' should be comparative forms 'fresher and lighter' when comparing seasons. 'hot pots' should be 'hot pot' when referring to the dish generally.
× Well, it's a tricky question. I would say I've gained a lot of new experiences from eating worldwide kind of food, but mainly I did not like be be like picky about what I eat.
✓ Well, it's a tricky question. I would say I've gained a lot of experience from eating foods from around the world, but mainly I do not like to be picky about what I eat.
Grammar problem type ID:5 Past tense issue. The sentence mixes present perfect 'I've gained' with awkward past 'did not like be be like picky'. Change 'did not like be be like picky' to present 'do not like to be picky' to match the intended habitual present attitude. Also 'new experiences' -> 'experience' and 'worldwide kind of food' -> 'foods from around the world' for clarity.
× I just eat in once another day different kind of food.
✓ I just eat different kinds of food from day to day.
Grammar problem type ID:26 Sentence structure errors. The original sequence 'I just eat in once another day different kind of food' is ungrammatical and jumbled. Reorder and choose correct plurals: 'different kinds of food' and idiomatic time expression 'from day to day' to convey the intended meaning that the student eats different foods each day.
