Not as often as before. In the past, when I was a child, I liked to wear hats, but now I don't want to wear them because they feel unusual for me. For example, I'm growing as an adult. Also, it seemed to be from sunrise. However, if I want to pretend to be from sunrise, I just take an umbrella.

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

Task Response

The answer is understandable but drifts off-topic. Focus on directly answering the question about hat preference and provide more relevant reasons for your current feelings towards wearing hats. Consider structuring your response more clearly.

Fluency & Coherence

The answer is understandable but lacks a smooth flow. There are some instances of repetition and unclear connections between ideas. Work on connecting your ideas more smoothly and logically. For example, the connection between growing up and not wearing hats is not clearly explained. The reference to 'sunrise' is confusing and needs clarification or removal.

Lexical Resource

Vocabulary is adequate but not particularly sophisticated. The phrase "unusual for me" is a bit weak; consider using more precise language to describe your feelings about wearing hats. The word choice is simple and lacks variety. Try to incorporate more descriptive and precise vocabulary.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

There are several grammatical errors, including incorrect tense usage and sentence structure. For example, "it pretended to be from sunrise" is grammatically incorrect. Focus on improving grammatical accuracy and using a wider range of grammatical structures. Pay attention to subject-verb agreement and correct tense usage.
