Try using synonyms for the above words

Pronunciation

Your pronunciation is above average. However, you may find complexity in certain words challenging. Regular practice should aid in improvement.

Task Response

The response is relevant and satisfactory. Consider expanding on the experience by describing the process, challenges, or rewards of growing the plants. Adding details would enrich the answer.

Fluency & Coherence

The answer is understandable but lacks a smooth flow. The phrasing 'then the spring season comes and after and sometime during the any season' is awkward and repetitive. Improving sentence structure and using more precise time references would enhance fluency and coherence. Consider rephrasing to something like, "Yes, I have. We grow many plants, including mango and plum trees, as well as flowers, mainly in the spring but sometimes at other times of the year."

Lexical Resource

The vocabulary is adequate but not particularly sophisticated. While the answer conveys the intended meaning, using more precise and varied vocabulary would improve the score. For example, instead of 'plant' repeatedly, consider using 'tree' for mango and plum, and perhaps more specific flower types. More descriptive language would also enhance the lexical resource.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

There are grammatical errors, particularly in the phrasing mentioned above. The sentence structure is somewhat simplistic. Improving sentence structure and correcting grammatical errors (e.g., 'any season' should be 'other seasons' or 'different seasons') would significantly improve the grammatical range and accuracy.

All public transport should be free

I believe that public transportation should be, or at least, much cheaper. There are several reasons for this. First of all, free public transport would help people save money, especially students and people with low incomes. Secondly, if passes and trains were free, people would probably use them instead of provide cars. As a result, […]
