As you know, balancing the pursuit of profit with ethical and social responsibility is quite hard for many businesses nowadays. But from my perspective, I think that businesses can minimize their profit to consider more about the ethical values they bring to society. For example, the MMA supermarket has just released their campaign. This campaign is about how to protect the environment. They encourage customers to use reusable bags instead of plastic bags to protect the environment. So they minimized their profit and increased ethical values in society.

Your pronunciation is above average. However, you may find complexity in certain words challenging. Regular practice should aid in improvement.

Task Response

The response addresses the question and provides an example. To improve, consider discussing a wider range of strategies businesses can use and elaborating on the complexities of balancing profit with ethical considerations. Providing a more detailed explanation of the example and its impact would also strengthen the answer.

Fluency & Coherence

The answer is generally coherent, but there are some hesitations and reformulations that slightly affect the flow. The use of cohesive devices is adequate but could be more varied. For example, avoid starting multiple sentences with 'So'. To improve, practice speaking more smoothly and use a wider range of linking words and phrases to connect your ideas.

Lexical Resource

The vocabulary is generally appropriate, but there's room for more precise and sophisticated word choices. The phrase 'now that age' is unclear and could be rephrased. To enhance your lexical resource, try to incorporate more specific and nuanced vocabulary related to business ethics and social responsibility.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

The grammar is mostly accurate, but there are a few errors that affect clarity. For example, 'the MMA supermarket have just released' should be 'has just released'. Also, 'In order to, that campaign exactly is about' is awkward and can be simplified to 'This campaign is about'. To improve, focus on subject-verb agreement and sentence structure.
