I believe that advertising has a positive impact on society because it can help reach the audience. For example, when a company is going to introduce a product and advertise it on the internet, there will be a much larger audience that can get to know this product. This allows them to try it and then buy it, thereby increasing income in reality.

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

Task Response

The response addresses the question but could benefit from a more comprehensive exploration of both positive and negative impacts. Providing a wider range of examples and discussing the nuances of advertising's influence would strengthen the answer.

Fluency & Coherence

The response is generally coherent, but there are some instances of repetition ('in the society') and slight hesitations. Using more varied cohesive devices would improve the flow. For example, instead of repeating 'thereby,' consider using synonyms or rephrasing the sentences.

Lexical Resource

The vocabulary is adequate but could be more precise and varied. While the words used are appropriate, the response would benefit from more sophisticated vocabulary related to advertising and its impact. For example, instead of 'get to know,' consider using 'become familiar with' or 'gain awareness of.'

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

The grammar is mostly accurate, but there are a few areas for improvement. The use of 'therefore' and 'thereby' is a bit repetitive and could be restructured for better flow. Also, ensure correct pronoun usage (e.g., 'advertise this product' could be simply 'advertise it').
