Band 6+: Do you believe traditional books will eventually be completely replaced by electronic books?

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

The answer addresses the question and provides a clear opinion, but the development is somewhat narrow. The response focuses almost exclusively on the health implications for children's eyesight, which is only one specific aspect of the debate between traditional and electronic books. To achieve a higher score, try to expand the scope of your argument to include other factors, such as the tactile experience of physical books, the convenience of digital storage, or the cost-effectiveness of e-books. Additionally, ensure that the reasoning directly supports the idea of 'complete replacement' by discussing why the physical format might persist in a broader societal context beyond just eye health.

The speaker provides a direct answer and attempts to develop it using a comparison between traditional and electronic books. However, the coherence is slightly weakened by the logical flow; the argument focuses heavily on eye health rather than the cultural or practical reasons why books might or might not be replaced. To improve, use more sophisticated cohesive devices (e.g., 'In contrast to this,' 'From a physiological perspective') and ensure your supporting arguments directly address the 'replacement' aspect of the question.

The vocabulary is functional but somewhat repetitive and basic (e.g., 'affect badly,' 'certain extent'). There is a good attempt at using words like 'deteriorate' and 'utilized.' To reach a higher band, avoid vague phrasing like 'it's not strong enough' and instead use more precise academic language such as 'the impact is negligible' or 'the risks are minimal.' Try to incorporate topic-specific vocabulary related to technology and literature (e.g., 'digital fatigue,' 'tactile experience,' 'obsolescence').

The speaker uses a mix of simple and complex structures (e.g., 'although' clauses). However, there are noticeable errors in the raw transcript, such as 'affect on' (affect is a transitive verb and does not require 'on') and 'glue to the screen' (should be the past participle 'glued'). While the refined version corrects these, the original performance shows a lack of control over prepositional usage and participle forms. Focus on mastering transitive verbs and adjective/participle phrases to improve accuracy.
