The answer is relevant to the question and provides a clear opinion.

The answer is coherent and mostly fluent. Minor repetition ('It helps to connect each other. It provides new messages to us.') could be avoided by combining these ideas. The phrasing 'Now to introduce century, it is modern era' is awkward and could be replaced with a smoother transition.

Vocabulary is adequate but not highly sophisticated. The phrase 'varieties of social media' could be improved to 'a variety of social media platforms' or similar. More precise language would elevate the response.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

Grammar is mostly accurate, with a few minor errors ('a very important to us' should be 'very important for us'). Sentence structures are simple but effective. More complex grammatical structures would improve the score.
