Pronunciation

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

Task Response

The response touches on the topic but lacks depth and coherence. The ideas are somewhat related but not well-developed or clearly linked to the question of balancing profit with social and environmental responsibilities. Consider providing more specific examples and elaborating on how these actions directly address both profit and responsibility.

Fluency & Coherence

The response is somewhat disjointed and lacks clear organization. The ideas are presented without strong cohesive devices, making it difficult to follow the line of reasoning. There are noticeable pauses and hesitations. To improve, focus on structuring your answer with clear topic sentences and transitions between ideas. Practice using cohesive devices like 'furthermore,' 'in addition,' and 'therefore' to link your thoughts more smoothly.

Lexical Resource

The vocabulary is basic and limited, with some inaccuracies ('environment' used incorrectly). There is a lack of precision in word choice. To enhance your lexical resource, try to use more specific and varied vocabulary related to business, social responsibility, and environmental issues. For example, instead of 'bad type of analog,' you could say 'vehicles with high emissions'. Read articles and listen to podcasts on these topics to expand your vocabulary.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

The grammatical range is limited, with frequent errors in sentence structure and verb tense. There are issues with article usage and prepositional phrases. To improve, focus on mastering basic grammatical structures and then gradually incorporate more complex sentences. Practice writing and speaking regularly, paying close attention to correcting your errors. Consider focusing on specific areas like verb tenses and article usage.
