Do you prefer sad or happy music?

I definitely prefer happy music because in my opinion music should be a thing that motivates people to do their best in daily life. So I usually try to listen to happy songs that makes me feel.
Examiner
Does happy music make you feel more excited?
Candidate
Yes it does. For example, I usually listen to K pop music which is my favorite and also upbeat. Uh, as soon as I wake up I usually I'm usually not talkative and a little bit stiff, so in that situation I usually try.
Do you prefer sad or happy music?
Score: 72.0Suggestion: 答えは明確ですが、文法の誤りと冗長さがあります。まず、主語と動詞の一致("songs that makes" → "songs that make")を直しましょう。話し方を自然にするため、トピック文の後に短い理由と具体例を1つだけ加えるとよいです。また繋ぎ言葉("because", "so" など)を適切に使い、5文以内にまとめて簡潔に話してください。発音や語順で止まる癖があれば練習して流暢さを上げましょう。
Example: I prefer happy music because it motivates me during the day. For example, upbeat pop songs lift my mood and help me stay focused when I study or work.
Does happy music make you feel more excited?
Score: 60.0Suggestion: 肯定はできていますが、発展部分が途切れており文法や繰り返しが多いです。無駄な間("uh")や重複("I usually I'm usually")を避け、理由と具体的な状況を1〜2文でまとめましょう。接続詞("for example", "so")を明確に使い、文を完結させることが重要です。より具体的な例(どんな曲でどんな効果があるか)を入れると内容が豊かになります。
Example: Yes, it does. For example, I often play upbeat K-pop in the morning because energetic songs help me wake up and feel more cheerful, which makes it easier to start conversations and get moving.
× So I usually try to listen to happy songs that makes me feel.
✓ So I usually try to listen to happy songs that make me feel good.
The relative clause 'that makes' should agree with the plural noun 'songs', so use 'make' (subject-verb agreement). Also the verb phrase needs an object or complement: 'feel' is incomplete here; add 'good' to complete the idea and match natural English. Suggestion: Use plural verb forms with plural subjects and include a complement after 'feel', e.g., 'make me feel good.'
× For example, I usually listen to K pop music which is my favorite and also upbeat.
✓ For example, I usually listen to K-pop music, which is my favorite and is upbeat.
'K pop' should be hyphenated as 'K-pop'. The nonrestrictive clause needs a comma before 'which'. Also to maintain parallel structure, include the verb 'is' before 'upbeat' or rephrase: 'which is my favorite and upbeat' is informal; better: 'which is my favorite and is upbeat.' Suggestion: Use commas with 'which' clauses and maintain parallel verb structure.
× Uh, as soon as I wake up I usually I'm usually not talkative and a little bit stiff, so in that situation I usually try.
✓ As soon as I wake up, I am usually not talkative and a little bit stiff, so in that situation I usually try to listen to upbeat music.
The original has redundancy ('I usually I'm usually') and an incomplete main clause ('so in that situation I usually try' needs an object). Remove duplicated words and provide the object of 'try' to complete the sentence. Also add a comma after the introductory phrase 'As soon as I wake up.' Suggestion: Avoid duplicating adverbs and always include the object/complement after verbs like 'try', e.g., 'try to listen to upbeat music.'
