Band 5+: Do you think we should keep old buildings in cities?

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

The answer is relevant to the question and provides a clear opinion. However, the reasoning is somewhat limited and could be expanded upon by exploring other benefits of preserving old buildings beyond tourism, such as historical significance or cultural value. Consider exploring different perspectives and providing more balanced arguments.

The answer is understandable, but the phrasing is awkward in places. The structure could be improved by using clearer transitions and more concise sentence structures. For example, instead of 'From my perspective, we should preserve all buildings in cities because I think it's a kind of tourist attraction,' a more natural phrasing would be 'Preserving old buildings is important because they attract tourists.'

The vocabulary is adequate but lacks precision. Words like 'extinct' are misused. The student should focus on using more precise and sophisticated vocabulary to describe architectural styles and the benefits of preserving old buildings. Consider using words like 'historical,' 'heritage,' 'aesthetic value,' etc.

There are several grammatical errors, such as 'in series' instead of 'in cities,' and the incorrect use of 'extinct.' The student needs to improve their grammatical accuracy and range. More complex sentence structures and a wider range of grammatical forms would improve the score.
