Yes, definitely, because we humans have common behaviors based on our nature. If a person lies, we can check it out. Before we go into specific details, we can observe his or her body language or something related to eye contact. Yes, the person's lies can be detected because it's the basis of how we analyze a person's eyes. It's a common way in our community and among humans. So, I think body language and eyes can tell if a person is lying or not, even though it is not 100% true or reliable. However, we can generally consider the other person's body language and eyes. That's why I think so.

Pronunciation

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 directly and provides a clear stance. The answer could be strengthened by providing specific examples or elaborating on the types of body language or eye contact cues that might indicate deception. Additionally, exploring the limitations or cultural variations in interpreting these cues could add depth to the response.

Fluency & Coherence

The response demonstrates some coherence, but there are noticeable hesitations and repetitions ('check it out,' 'the other person'). The organization of ideas is somewhat clear, but could be improved with more cohesive devices to link sentences and ideas more smoothly. Try to avoid unnecessary repetition and use linking words to connect your thoughts.

Lexical Resource

The vocabulary is adequate but lacks precision and flexibility. The use of 'common behavior,' 'body language,' and 'eye contact' is relevant, but the range could be broader. There are instances of imprecise language ('something which is related to eye content'). To improve, try to use more specific and varied vocabulary related to non-verbal communication and deception.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

The grammatical range is limited, and there are several errors that affect clarity ('our human have,' 'person's lies,' 'is the person's lies or not'). Sentence structures are relatively simple. To improve, focus on using a wider range of grammatical structures and ensuring accuracy in basic grammar, such as subject-verb agreement and correct use of possessives.
