Band 7+: how do you usually get your daily news?

Your pronunciation is quite good. Working on consistency and tackling difficult sounds may enhance clarity.

The answer is relevant and provides multiple ways of getting news. To improve, consider elaborating on one or two of the methods mentioned, providing more detail about why you prefer them or how often you use them.

The answer is generally coherent, but there's some slight repetition ('my family') that affects the flow. Try to vary your sentence structure and avoid repeating phrases unnecessarily. Using conjunctions like 'and' or 'but' is good, but ensure they connect distinct ideas to maintain a smooth flow.

The vocabulary is adequate for the topic, but it could be more varied and precise. Consider using synonyms or more specific terms to describe how you receive news. For example, instead of just 'check my phone,' you could say 'I browse news apps on my phone' or 'I get news alerts on my phone.'

The grammar is mostly accurate, but there's a slight awkwardness in the phrasing. The sentence structure is simple and could benefit from more complexity. For example, you could combine sentences or use subordinate clauses to add detail and sophistication. 'When I don't have my phone, I rely on my sister, family members, newspapers, and friends for updates' is an improvement.
