Male Female
I currently live in a flat, or you can say an apartment. The reason I have to live in a flat is that my family is unable to afford a house since housing prices in Macau are not cheap. I'm afraid that living in a house would cause me and my family much more expense than ever. Also, I think a flat can provide me with more privacy, allowing me to focus on my own business and be away from the outside disruptions that come with house problems.

Pronunciation

7
Your pronunciation is quite good. Working on consistency and tackling difficult sounds may enhance clarity.

Task Response

9
This is an excellent response. You have answered the question directly and provided relevant details about your living situation and the reasons behind it. The explanation is clear, natural, and well-structured. Your elaboration on the financial aspects and the privacy benefits demonstrates a good command of the language and the ability to express your thoughts effectively.

Fluency & Coherence

8
Good fluency and coherence. Minor repetition and self-correction, but overall the response is well-organized and easy to follow. Consider slightly more concise phrasing in the future to enhance fluency.

Lexical Resource

8
Excellent vocabulary use. Words like 'disruption' and 'expense' show a good range. The occasional slightly less precise phrasing (e.g., 'pretty much more expense') could be refined for greater precision.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

7
Mostly accurate grammar. Minor errors such as 'are unable to afford a house since the housing price' (should be 'housing prices are'). The sentence structure is generally good, but some sentences are a bit long and could be broken down for clarity and improved grammatical accuracy.

In addition, the deadline […]
