分數: 65.0建議: Дайте пряму відповідь і додайте один конкретний спогад або деталь. Замініть неприродне “greenish streets” на “tree-lined streets” або “leafy streets”, приберіть повтор “experience” і розділіть довгу відповідь на коротші речення. Наприклад, можна згадати, де саме ви каталися або що вам подобалося в цих поїздках.
