You bet, absolutely I do. Personally, I can't leave the Dota Internet even for 24 hours. That sounds rather pointless. So no social networks, no survival, no world for me. It is a universal struggle in my house. It is not just me. In addition, my family is also glued to our screens with our Wi-Fi running seamlessly, flawlessly, and consistently at all times. It's evident that we are really dependent on connection and couldn't make it through a day offline. But one exception, on the flip side, is experiencing a shift in perspective. You realize you won't let your youth slip away within the four walls of your home.

Pronunciation

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

Task Response

The response addresses the topic by confirming internet usage and describing the level of dependency within the household. However, the answer lacks depth regarding the actual 'use' of the internet (e.g., for work, study, entertainment, or communication). The response focuses heavily on the concept of addiction and a philosophical reflection on youth, which deviates slightly from a direct explanation of how the internet is utilized. To improve, try to provide specific examples of activities performed online, such as browsing news, attending online classes, or using specific applications, to ensure all aspects of the prompt are fully developed. The response could be expanded as it currently feels quite brief.

Fluency & Coherence

The speaker shows a good attempt at using cohesive devices (e.g., 'In addition', 'on the flip side'). However, the coherence suffers towards the end. The transition from being 'glued to screens' to the idea of 'not letting youth sleep away' is quite abrupt and logically disconnected. To improve, ensure that your concluding thoughts directly relate to the preceding points or provide a clearer logical bridge between the dependency on technology and the desire to live life outside.

Lexical Resource

There is some good use of idiomatic language and descriptive adverbs, such as 'glued to our screens', 'seamlessly', and 'flawlessly'. However, there are some unnatural collocations and word choices. For example, 'Dota Internet' is likely a specific reference that might confuse an examiner, and 'interfamily' is not a standard English word (use 'family' or 'household'). Additionally, 'sleep away' was likely intended to be 'slip away'. Aim for more precision in your word choices to reach the higher bands.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

The speaker uses a mix of simple and complex structures. However, there are several grammatical inconsistencies. The phrase 'It is not just only me' is redundant (use either 'It is not just me' or 'It is not only me'). The final sentence is a fragment/run-on that lacks a clear subject-verb relationship in the context of the preceding clause. Work on sentence boundary control and ensuring that complex sentences are grammatically complete.
