Hi in my personal opinion, your vocabulary is very good. However, the way you write in Chinese sometimes is not very natural. It is more like the style of google translate.
我读了你的这篇文章之后, 感觉你的中文词汇掌握得并不少,但是你说话的方式有时不是很自然的中文表达方式,而有点像google翻译的结果。
以下面的句子为例:
0.因为她是一个不习惯生活和照顾年迈父母的美国人。
-》1. to live with 和。。。一起生活
因为她是一个不习惯和年迈父母一起生活 和照顾年迈父母的美国人。
-》2. To avoid redundancy, use "他们” to represent 年迈父母
因为她是一个不习惯和年迈父母一起生活和照顾他们的美国人。
-》3. 和 usually used with nouns , like, 你和他, 水杯和书包(a cup and a bag), 工作和学习(work and study)
并且 could be used with longer phrases/sentences
因为她是一个不习惯和年迈父母一起生活并且照顾他们的美国人。
-> 4. 3 is good enough. To make it perfect, you may want to change the order of the sentence to make it more readable to Chinese readers
因为她是一个美国人, 不习惯和年迈父母一起生活并且照顾他们。
BTW, I like that movie too.
这是李安“父亲三部曲”的第一部, 《喜宴》和《饮食男女》比《推手》更成熟些。
