error_type: Verb Tense Error
error_severity: 5

I got up.』, so that each sentence has a complete subject-verb structure; ③ Verb Tense Error: Based on the time context of last weekend, the present tense verb 〈get〉 is changed to the past tense 『got』 to ensure the tense consistency of the entire text in the simple past tense.

error_type: Verb Tense Error
error_severity: 3
error_description: Verb Tense Error: According to the principle of tense consistency in context, when the main clause is in the past tense, expressing a future intention in the subordinate clause requires the past future tense. Therefore, the present future tense 〈will play〉 is changed to 『was going to play』 to reflect the time relationship of 'planned to do at that time'.

error_type: Word Redundancy Error
error_severity: 3
error_description: Word Redundancy Error: According to the principle of ellipsis in English parallel structures, when two clauses share the same subject, the subject in the subsequent clause can be omitted to avoid repetition. Therefore, the second redundant 〈I〉 is deleted, allowing 『play basketball』 to share the subject with the preceding clause, adhering to the principle of economy in English expression.
