分數: 76.0建議: Be more concise and structured: start with a clear topic sentence, then give one or two specific reasons with linking words.

× we have to do a lot of revision and spend many time on revising the thing that we need to.
✓ we have to do a lot of revision and spend a lot of time revising the things that we need to.
The student used 'many time' which is incorrect because 'time' is an uncountable noun and needs 'much' or 'a lot of'. Also 'the thing that we need to' is vague and ungrammatical; change to 'the things that we need to' or simply 'what we need to'. Use parallel structure: 'spend a lot of time revising' is natural. Grammar problem type ID:14
× as an undergraduate, umm, as we're preparing public exam in our school,
✓ as an undergraduate, umm, as we're preparing for public exams in our school,
The noun 'public exam' requires the preposition 'for' and should be plural 'exams' if speaking generally. Adding 'for' makes the verb 'preparing' complete. Use 'public exams' or 'the public exam' depending on context. Grammar problem type ID:22
× we have tutorial lessons after that.
✓ we have tutorial lessons after that.
Sentence is acceptable, but if referring to a single type of session, 'tutorial lessons' (plural) is fine. No change needed; this entry is included to indicate plural usage is correct. Grammar problem type ID:1
× I would feel tired when I have many works to do, umm,
✓ I would feel tired when I have a lot of work to do, umm,
'Work' in this context is an uncountable noun meaning tasks; 'many works' is incorrect. Use 'a lot of work' or 'many tasks' for correct quantification. Grammar problem type ID:14
× it requires a lot of my energy.
✓ they require a lot of my energy.
Subject refers to 'extracurricular activities and tutorial lessons' (plural), so the verb should be 'require' to agree with a plural subject. Change 'it' to 'they' and 'requires' to 'require'. Grammar problem type ID:2
× I would listen to some peaceful music, some classical music for example, like piano or umm guitar or acoustic music
✓ I would listen to peaceful music, for example classical music, such as piano or guitar or acoustic music
Avoid repeating 'some' and use 'for example' or 'such as' for clarity. 'Like piano' is informal; 'such as piano or guitar' is better. Also remove redundant 'some' before peaceful music. Grammar problem type ID:22
× so that I can have time to lift up my mood.
✓ so that I can lift my mood.
'Lift up my mood' is non-idiomatic; native speakers say 'lift my mood' or 'improve my mood'. 'Have time to' is unnecessary here. Use concise phrasing: 'so that I can lift my mood.' Grammar problem type ID:13}]}oster-debug-summary: suggestions_count=7} PMID:0.1234)
