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

Task Response

The response partially addresses the question by mentioning the impact of globalization on traditions and cultural identity. However, it lacks detailed explanation and specific examples to support the claims. Consider providing more in-depth analysis of how traditions preserve cultural identity and exploring different aspects of how celebrations might change in the future. More specific examples of traditions and their significance would strengthen the response.

Fluency & Coherence

The answer lacks a clear structure and transitions between ideas. While the main points are touched upon, the flow is disjointed. Improving the use of cohesive devices (e.g., 'furthermore', 'however', 'in contrast') would enhance coherence. More concise phrasing would improve fluency.

Lexical Resource

The vocabulary is adequate but not particularly sophisticated. While the student uses words like "globalization" and "cultural heritage," more precise and nuanced vocabulary could be employed to express ideas more effectively. For example, instead of 'negative effect,' a more specific term could be used, such as 'erosion' or 'dilution.'

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

Grammatical errors are present, particularly in sentence structure and article usage. For example, "countries which has" should be "countries that have." The student attempts complex sentences but sometimes fails to construct them accurately. Focusing on accurate sentence construction and subject-verb agreement would improve this aspect.
