English and Chinese
These mistakes are nothing but basic, how could we persistently make these mistakes after so many years of being washed by that language? Let's dig into it a bit deeper.
Apparently, it's due to the different language rules, you know, there's no such thing in Chinese, where you don't have to change the formation of the verb when the subject noun is a single third-person one. We won't make such mistakes if the situation is been awared, that means, we usually make them in an unconscious fasion. So ultimately, it's the different mindset or culture background that stirs up the different response.
For a Chinese, it feels remote for the necessarity to maintain the grammar consistency between a subject and its state or action.

English and Chinese
These mistakes are nothing but basic, how could we persistently make these mistakes after so many years of being washed by that exposed to the language? Let's dig into it a bit deeper.
Apparently, it's due to the different language rules: (I recommend a colon here, but a period is fine too. It's a stylistic choice but your English is advanced.) you know, (You know is typical of casual spoken language, which this paragraph is not.) there's no such thing in Chinese, where you don't have to change the formation of the verb form (less awkward) when the subject noun is in the (just a slightly better collocation, what you said was fine though) single third-person one. We won't make such mistakes if the situation is been awared we are aware in the situation. (People are aware or unaware, situations are not.) That means we usually make them in an unconscious fasion. So ultimately, it's the different mindset or cultural (cultural is an adjective here) background that stirs up the different response.
For a Chinese person (only certain nationalities can be a noun: American, Canadian, etc. Nationalities with -ese or -ish are formed with the collocation adjective + person), it feels remote for the necessarity to maintain the grammar consistency between a subject and its state or action feels remote/distant. (Remote sounds okay, 'feels distant' is the usual collocation when you're talking about an abstract concept.)
Your paragraph was quite good! It might seem like I provided a lot of corrections, but most of these are just style recommendations. Your English doesn't actually have many mistakes, and it's really more so just a question of stylistic choice: which word sounds better in a certain context? I tried to provide recommendations to make your paragraph sound a little bit more natural. :)
