Pronunciation

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

Task Response

6
The answer is understandable but lacks detail and depth. Consider expanding on the reasons behind your preferences for buying and borrowing books. Elaborating on specific situations where you would choose one method over the other would strengthen your response.

Fluency & Coherence

6
The answer is understandable but lacks fluency. There's some hesitation and repetition ("books" is repeated several times). The structure could be improved for better coherence. Try to connect your ideas more smoothly, perhaps using conjunctions like 'because' or 'although' to show the relationship between buying and borrowing books.

Lexical Resource

6
Vocabulary is adequate but not particularly sophisticated. The phrasing 'completed the reading books' is slightly awkward. Consider using more precise and natural vocabulary, such as 'finish reading' or 'have finished reading'.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

5
There are grammatical errors. The sentence 'When I want, if I have completed the reading books, I would borrow the books someone' is grammatically incorrect and unclear. Work on sentence structure and correct the use of articles and prepositions. Focus on using a wider range of grammatical structures.
