About two months ago, I bought online books that sent reading and listening materials every day. For reading, teachers sent articles and reading materials. One of them was about health. This article was very interesting to me because I understood how our body works. For example, it discussed how to strengthen our muscles, improve our flexibility, and enhance body movement. Then I learned more about our health. Every day, I watched various articles and videos about health. Thank you for watching.

Pronunciation

Your pronunciation is below average and may be understood with some effort. Pay attention to common phonemes that are challenging for you.

Task Response

The response is relevant to the prompt and includes the necessary elements. However, it lacks detail and specific examples to fully illustrate the article's content and its impact on health improvement. Consider providing more specific information about the article's recommendations, the evidence presented, and how these recommendations could be practically applied to improve health. Elaborating on your personal experience with implementing the advice from the article would also strengthen the response. The response could be expanded as it currently feels quite brief.

Fluency & Coherence

5.5

The answer is understandable, but the structure could be improved. The introduction is a bit convoluted. Try to state the main point of the article more directly at the beginning. The conclusion is abrupt. A more natural conclusion would summarize the benefits of the article and reiterate its importance for health improvement. Work on smoother transitions between ideas.

Lexical Resource

4.5

The vocabulary is adequate but lacks precision. Phrases like "how can our body work" are not quite accurate. Try to use more specific and precise vocabulary to describe the article's content. For example, instead of "good our muscles," use more precise terms like "strengthen our muscles" or "improve muscle strength." Expanding your vocabulary related to health and fitness will significantly improve this aspect.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

4.5

There are several grammatical errors, such as incorrect word order ("how can our body work") and tense inconsistencies. The sentence structure is also quite simple. Focus on improving grammatical accuracy and using a wider range of grammatical structures. Pay attention to subject-verb agreement and correct tense usage. Practice using more complex sentence structures to demonstrate a wider grammatical range.
