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

Task Response

The answer is relevant to the question and provides a personal example. However, to improve, consider elaborating on the experience by describing the type of flowers, the friend's reaction in more detail, and perhaps the reason why this experience is memorable. Adding more descriptive language would enhance the response.

Fluency & Coherence

The answer is coherent and mostly fluent. Minor repetition and a slight stumble ('she was happy' instead of 'he was happy') detract from perfect fluency. Improving the flow of connecting ideas would enhance the score.

Lexical Resource

Vocabulary is adequate and mostly accurate. The phrase 'a bunch of flowers' is slightly informal for this context. More sophisticated vocabulary choices would improve the score. The word 'ex-surprised' is incorrect and should be replaced with 'extremely' or 'very'.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

Grammar is mostly accurate, but there are some errors. The sentence 'It dates back the time when I studied at university' is grammatically incorrect. It should be 'It dates back to the time when I studied at university' or 'It was when I was at university'. The use of 'and because of this' is slightly awkward and unnecessary. More precise and varied grammatical structures would improve the score.
