Polished transcript:
Male Female
I heard a piece of good news last week. My sister got a very good score in her assessment and she also passed her test. She told me by messaging me on my phone, and I felt very happy and grateful for her. She said she was very thankful that I had given her lots of help and assistance. She worked very hard for this test, and I felt that she deserved this score. I helped her a lot before the test, with the preparation, practicing with her, and giving her lots of tips on how to answer the questions. Her parents gave her a lot of support too. The night before the test, she was so nervous that she couldn't even stop thinking about it and couldn't sleep. Her parents came into her room and reassured her, saying it was okay even if she didn't do well because they could try again. They trusted her to do well since she had prepared a lot. In the end, they were very happy and told her that they always believed she could pass the assessment. Her teachers were also very happy as they had given her lots of classes to prepare. I think she is very lucky to have so much support when facing challenges.
