A: Green Asparagus and White Asparagus

There are two types of asparagus in the world. One is green asparagus, the other one is white asparagus. Green asparagus is one of the popular vegetables in grocery shops, but white asparagus is not so common. Do you know the differences between green asparagus and white asparagus? As their names suggests, there is a difference in color. In addition, the shape of white asparagus is thicker and rounder than green asparagus, but they are (FROM) the same breed. So why is there a difference in color and shape? There are some background factors that cause these differences. Also, they differ in nutrition, season of growth, and best ways to be eaten.
First of all, the cultivation methods of green asparagus and white asparagus are different. Green asparagus is grown while exposed to the sun after germination. If (it) is brought up naturally under the sun, chlorophyll is made by photosynthesis and the color become bright green. Green asparagus is crisp because of the sun. On the other hand, white asparagus is piled (in) soil about 25cm after germination. It is then grown in the soil or moved to (a) dark place to avoid sun exposure. When the sun does not shine on (the) asparagus, it cannot photosynthesize. That’s why chlorophyll is not made and it becomes white (in) color. Sometimes white asparagus is piled before germination, and it becomes softer than (usual). Even though they are the same kind of vegetable, the color and shape of asparagus differs based on how they are cultivated.

Second, the nutrition in green and white asparagus is also different because how they are cultivated. Green asparagus is the green and yellow vegetable which is wealthy in carotene. In addition, green asparagus includes a lot (of) protein, vitamin A, vitamin B family, vitamin C, calcium, magnesium, potassium, iron, zinc, and copper. Therefore, (one) can expect health of hair, skin, and respiratory mucous membrane reinforcement. Aspartic acid is a famous nutrition which works to relieve fatigue. By growing up with shine, green asparagus has a lot of nutrition. The nutritive value of green asparagus is really high even if (you) compare (it) with other vegetables. In contrast, white asparagus barely has carotene because it’s grown without sun. Also, white asparagus has only half of protein and vitamin B family. White asparagus is (a) vegetable which enjoys (a) special fragrance, sweetness and bitter sweetness, without expecting nutritive value. However, white asparagus has half as much polyphenol (a compound which has antioxidative effect) as green asparagus. Both asparaguses are good for (the) body.
Finally, the best season to grow green and white asparagus, and how they are eaten, are different. It is possible to eat green asparagus every season because it grows fast. There are many ways to cook the green asparagus. Baking, frying, and boiling are good ways to cook it because it is hard to chew the green asparagus. On the other hand, white asparagus has the best season. Seasons May to (through) June (are) the best seasons to eat white asparagus. Because it takes time to harvest and (it) is difficult to cultivate, there is a (low) distribution amount and (the) price is a little high. White asparagus can be eaten fresh, so it is possible to eat it as salad.
In conclusion, there are many differences between green asparagus and white asparagus in addition to the color and the shape. “These asparaguses has good point each other and” it is possible to enjoy different way to eat (it). (The first half of the sentence doesn’t make too much sense. You can try saying: Both asparaguses are nutritional and can be eaten in a variety of ways).

A: First of all, you have an excellent command of English, parabéns! Assuming the content is correct, I would only change a few things with regard to grammar and style:

The contrast between stressed and unstressed syllables dictates the rhythm of a sentence in English. Thus, it is a stress-timed language, meaning the interval between two stressed syllables is approximately equal. As a result, both vowels in unstressed syllables and function words, such as auxiliary verbs, tend to be neutralized with a short vowel sound called schwa, denoted in the International Phonetic Alphabet by the symbol /ɘ/, which is a hallmark of the English language. Consequently, this phenomenon causes a loss of vowel identities and makes the language more difficult to acquire for non-native learners. Furthermore, all contractions exist to fit this prosodic characteristic of English.

A: @mion93: sure! they're really good, just spelling and punctuation.

That is why I am truly fascinated with Britain.

....In Britain there are a lot of attractive things, so I'd like to live there if I could.

*for formal/academic written things try to avoid using shortened words like that's, it's, wasn't and instead use that is, it is, was not. 頑張って！
