The big issue is in the reason one. You put a lot of 'they are...' means you want to talk a of of things in one reason. well, this is wrong. In TOEFL speaking Q1/Q2, for one reason, we only need to talk one specific thing. for example,

There are thousand of reasons, however, we just need two reasons for one speaking.
