To be honest, I'm not a big fan of watching TV as I used to be when I was 6 or 7 years old. Currently, I think I stopped watching TV because I have a lot of work to do. I have a lot of studies and that kind of thing. I used to enjoy cartoons when I was younger and some fancy TV shows that I really liked.

Pronunciation

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

Task Response

The response is satisfactory, but it could benefit from addressing all parts of the question more comprehensively. Consider expanding on your viewing habits, favorite programs, popular shows in your country, and the impact of the internet. Additionally, the second half of the question regarding reading habits was not addressed.

Fluency & Coherence

The answer is understandable, but the fluency could be improved. There are a few instances of hesitant speech and unnatural phrasing, such as "stopped to watching TVs." Focus on smoother transitions between ideas and more natural sentence structures. Practice speaking at a consistent pace.

Lexical Resource

The vocabulary is adequate but not particularly sophisticated. While the speaker uses words like "fancy" to describe TV shows, more precise and varied vocabulary would enhance the response. Try to incorporate more descriptive adjectives and nouns to enrich your language.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

There are some grammatical errors, such as the incorrect use of "stopped to watching." The sentence structure is sometimes awkward. Work on improving grammatical accuracy and sentence construction. Pay attention to verb tenses and preposition usage.
