Try using synonyms for the above words

Pronunciation

Your pronunciation is above average. However, you may find complexity in certain words challenging. Regular practice should aid in improvement.

Task Response

The response addresses the question but could benefit from more specific details and elaboration. Providing more context and examples would enhance the clarity and depth of the answer.

Fluency & Coherence

The response is somewhat coherent, but there are noticeable pauses and hesitations. The ideas are not always clearly linked. To improve, focus on using cohesive devices (e.g., 'furthermore,' 'in addition') to connect your thoughts and practice speaking more smoothly without unnecessary pauses.

Lexical Resource

The vocabulary is basic and repetitive ('more'). There's a lack of precision in word choice. To enhance your lexical resource, try to use synonyms and a wider range of vocabulary related to shopping and activities. For example, instead of 'more food,' you could say 'a variety of food items' or 'diverse culinary ingredients.'

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

The grammar contains errors, such as incorrect verb forms ('go to shopping') and awkward sentence structures ('I can more play more games to do more give'). Work on using correct verb tenses, articles, and sentence structures. Practice constructing more complex sentences to demonstrate a wider grammatical range.
