error_type: Sentence Structure Error
error_severity: 4
error_description: ① Sentence Structure Error: 〈Because of〉 needs to be followed by a nominal structure; considering the context, the intention is to express “because of being open-hearted,” so 『being』 should be used to represent “the state of being open-hearted,” thus 〈the〉 is changed to 『being』 to make the sentence grammatically complete; ② Space Error: 『being』 here needs a space before the following quoted content, so 〈the"open-hearted"〉 is changed to 『being "open-hearted』 to conform to standards; ③ Verb Tense Error: This describes a past event, so the verb needs to be in the past tense; therefore, 〈keep〉 is changed to 『kept』 to match the context tense.
