Are there tall buildings near your home?
分數: 52.0建議: Be more concise and grammatical: start with a clear topic sentence, then add one specific detail. Avoid repetition and correct article/form errors (e.g., "near my home", "tall buildings", "the tallest building is about four or five storeys").
範例: No, there aren't any tall buildings near my home. The tallest buildings nearby are only about four or five storeys high, so the area feels quite low-rise and residential.
Do you take photos of buildings?
分數: 40.0建議: Clarify who/what you refer to and give a coherent response with linking words. Use one topic sentence (yes/no), then briefly explain why and give a specific example. Correct vocabulary (e.g., "lighting", "ambience", and correct place names).
範例: Yes, I sometimes take photos of buildings because I like their architecture and lighting. For example, I photographed the tall buildings in BGC at night because the warm lighting and modern design create a nice ambience.
Is there a building that you would like to visit?

範例: Yes, I'd like to visit the JP Morgan Chase building because I'm interested in its impressive glass façade and modern interior design. I'd like to see the lobby and art installations and learn how the offices are arranged.
Do you want to live in a tall building?
分數: 55.0建議: Give a balanced, fluent response: state your preference, then explain with a clear reason. Use linking words (however, because) and avoid filler words and repetition. Mention a specific concern (e.g., earthquakes, elevators) and a possible advantage to show complexity.
範例: Yes, I would like to live in a tall building for the great views and amenities. However, I worry about safety during earthquakes and the reliability of elevators, so I'd prefer a building with strong seismic design and good emergency procedures.
× There are no tall buildings near in our home.
✓ There are no tall buildings near our home.
The preposition 'in' is unnecessary when using 'near' to indicate proximity. Use 'near our home' or 'near my house.' Remove 'in' to make the phrase grammatically correct. Example improvement: 'There are no tall buildings near our home.'
× The tallest building here is around 4th floor, 4th floor to 5th floor.
✓ The tallest building here is around four or five stories high.
Use plural noun form 'stories' or 'floors' when indicating height and write numbers in words for speech clarity. The original mixes singular 'building' correctly but uses '4th floor' awkwardly. 'Around four or five stories high' is more natural and grammatically correct. Suggestion: say 'around four or five stories high.'
× There are no tall building here near.
✓ There are no tall buildings near here.
The noun 'building' should be plural to agree with 'there are.' Also position 'near' after 'here' or use 'near our home.' Correct form: 'There are no tall buildings near here.' Suggestion: 'There are no tall buildings near here.'
× I asked him, took a picture of a building like BGC.
✓ I asked him and took a picture of a building like those in BGC.
The original omits the subject for the second clause; adding 'and' connects the actions correctly. Also clarify 'BGC' reference: use 'those in BGC' or 'a building in BGC.' Ensure consistent past tense: 'asked' and 'took.' Suggestion: 'I asked him and took a picture of a building in BGC.'
× I love. I love the ambience of the PGC, the building, tallest buildings in the lightning of the buildings.
✓ I love it. I love the ambience of the PGC buildings and the way they are lit at night.
Original has sentence fragments and unclear phrases. Combine ideas into complete sentences, use object 'it' after 'I love,' and choose clear nouns and verbs: 'ambience of the PGC buildings' and 'the way they are lit' corrects structure and meaning. Suggestion: 'I love the ambience of the PGC buildings and the way they are lit at night.'
× Yes, the GP Morgan Chase I, I like to visit there because I do not have any any. Opinion. What is inside the building?
✓ Yes, J.P. Morgan Chase. I would like to visit there because I do not know what is inside the building.
Original repeats words and misuses 'have any opinion.' Use 'would like to visit' for polite desire and 'I do not know what is inside the building' to express curiosity. Also correct the company name punctuation and remove repetition. Suggestion: 'Yes, J.P. Morgan Chase. I would like to visit there because I do not know what is inside.'
× Yes, I want to live in a tall building. However, I'm terrified when it comes to uh, let's say earthquake.
✓ Yes, I want to live in a tall building. However, I'm terrified when it comes to, let's say, earthquakes.
Use plural 'earthquakes' when speaking generally. The modal/stance is fine, but punctuation and plurality need correction. 'When it comes to earthquakes' is the correct idiom. Suggestion: 'However, I'm terrified when it comes to earthquakes.'
× It is very uh. This is very scared, you know?
✓ It is very scary, you know?
Use the adjective 'scary' to describe something that causes fear. 'Scared' describes a feeling experienced by a person ('I am scared'). 'This is very scared' is incorrect because 'this' cannot feel scared. Replace with 'scary.' Suggestion: 'It is very scary, you know?'
