Pronunciation

Your pronunciation is average. It is understandable but not always accurate. Focusing on the rhythm and stress patterns of English could prove beneficial.

Task Response

The answer is relevant to the question and provides some description of the food. However, more detail is needed to fully describe the food, its significance to the festival, and the speaker's personal experience with it. Consider expanding on the taste, texture, and cultural aspects of the Jalebi, and how it contributes to the overall festival experience.

Fluency & Coherence

The answer is coherent, but the fluency could be improved. There are some hesitations and unnatural phrasing, such as "I am not a biggest fan." The description of the Jalebi is a bit disjointed. Work on smoother transitions and more natural sentence structures.

Lexical Resource

The vocabulary is adequate but not particularly sophisticated. The phrase "white virgin also have labor" is unclear and inappropriate. More precise and descriptive language would improve the score. Consider using more vivid adjectives to describe the Jalebi's appearance and taste.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

There are some grammatical errors, such as the incorrect use of "biggest" and the unclear phrase mentioned above. Sentence structures are sometimes awkward. Focus on improving subject-verb agreement and using a wider range of grammatical structures. Practice using more complex sentences to demonstrate grammatical range.
