Your pronunciation is average. It is understandable but not always accurate. Focusing on the rhythm and stress patterns of English could prove beneficial.

Task Response

The answer is relevant to the question and acknowledges the influence of advertising. However, it lacks detailed explanation and specific examples to support the claim. Consider providing concrete examples of advertising techniques and their effects on consumer behavior to strengthen your response. Also, focus on directly answering the question rather than discussing related topics like the prevalence of social media.

The answer is understandable but lacks a strong conclusion and smooth transitions between ideas. Work on connecting your thoughts more seamlessly. For example, the phrase 'Nowadays, it is a modern day' is redundant. Try to be more concise and direct in expressing your ideas.

Vocabulary is adequate but could be more precise and sophisticated. Phrases like 'so many factors' are somewhat vague. Try to use more specific examples to support your points. The phrase 'social media' is used repeatedly; consider using synonyms or more specific platform names.
