There are plenty of environmental problems around the world, for example, water issues, environmental degradation, and air pollution. I think air pollution has a very bad effect on the environment because people, children, and even animals can be harmed by it. The causes of that problem include neglecting the environment, car emissions, and dumping of garbage. If we don't prevent this problem, it can lead to a bad situation and consequences in the future. Thus, we shouldn't dump garbage in the streets and neglect the environment. If we stop those harmful actions, it will be good for the future. In addition, to help solve that problem, we need to plant trees, plants, and flowers. Because flowers and trees help to clean the air and environment, I think we can solve that problem in the future.

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

Task Response

The response adequately addresses the topic, mentioning a significant environmental problem and its causes. However, the discussion lacks depth and specific details. Consider providing more specific examples of the consequences of air pollution and elaborating on solutions with concrete actions and their potential impact. Including personal experiences or observations would strengthen the response.

Fluency & Coherence

The answer is somewhat repetitive and lacks a strong organizational structure. While the main point is clear, the ideas could be presented more logically and concisely. Try to use more sophisticated linking words and phrases to improve the flow of your speech. For example, instead of simply listing causes, group them thematically and explain the connections between them.

Lexical Resource

The vocabulary is adequate but not particularly sophisticated. While the speaker uses words like "degradation" and "emissions," more precise and nuanced vocabulary would elevate the response. Consider using synonyms and more descriptive language to enrich your vocabulary. For example, instead of "bad effect," use more specific terms like "detrimental impact" or "adverse consequences."

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

The grammar contains several errors, including incorrect word order, tense inconsistencies, and some unclear phrasing. While the message is generally understandable, grammatical accuracy needs improvement. Focus on practicing sentence structures and paying attention to subject-verb agreement and correct tense usage. For example, the repeated use of "If we shouldn't" is grammatically incorrect.
