Well, I think film stars have something to do to perform in their movies. In general, they need to learn the dialogues and remember them. Sometimes they need to change their body appearances and work out to have a certain look. That's why I think they deserve their appropriate salaries as a comeback, as a payback.

Pronunciation

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

Task Response

The answer is relevant to the question and provides some justification for the high salaries of film stars. However, it could be improved by exploring the complexities of the issue further, considering factors such as the economic impact of films and the various roles involved in filmmaking. A more nuanced discussion of the value of film stars' contributions, beyond their on-screen performances, would strengthen the response.

Fluency & Coherence

The answer is understandable, but the fluency could be improved. There are some hesitations and repetitions ("remember the dialogues"). The structure is a bit rambling. Try to organize your thoughts into a clearer sequence. For example, you could start with a clear statement of your opinion, then provide supporting reasons.

Lexical Resource

The vocabulary is adequate but not particularly sophisticated. Words like "bunchback" are not quite right and show a lack of precision. Try to use more precise and nuanced vocabulary to express your ideas. For example, instead of "body appearances," you could say "physical appearance" or "physique." Consider using synonyms to avoid repetition.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

There are some grammatical errors, such as the incorrect use of "bunchback" and the slightly awkward phrasing in several places. While the message is mostly clear, more accurate and varied grammatical structures would improve the score. Focus on using a wider range of tenses and sentence structures. Pay attention to subject-verb agreement and article usage.
