To be honest, it depends on the current situation. In fact, games have a profound and lasting impact on people's overall communication skills. For instance, when individuals participate in team-based games, they have to communicate effectively with their teammates by offering guidance and assistance to one another. As a result, this encourages them to establish long-lasting relationships and become more socially interactive. Moreover, international sporting competitions encourage people to experience cultural exchange by interacting with individuals from different nationalities and cultural backgrounds. Therefore, they can broaden their horizons regarding foreign cultures and become more adaptable.

Task Response

The answer is well-developed and directly addresses the question, providing two clear examples of how games unite people: through team-based communication and international cultural exchange. It stays on topic and uses a general perspective, which is appropriate for Part 3. To achieve a higher score, consider adding a brief contrasting point or a more explicit link to the concept of 'uniting' people, such as mentioning shared goals or overcoming differences. Additionally, ensure the opening phrase 'it depends on the current situation' is followed by a clear stance, as it may slightly weaken the directness of the response.

Fluency & Coherence

The answer is well-organized and coherent, with a clear introduction and two main points (team-based games and international competitions). The use of cohesive devices like 'For instance', 'As a result', and 'Moreover' is appropriate. There is no repetition or self-correction. To achieve a 9, the answer could be slightly more extended with a more nuanced conclusion or a third point, but it is already very fluent.

Lexical Resource

The vocabulary is precise and varied, with phrases like 'profound and lasting impact', 'communicate effectively', 'long-lasting relationships', 'socially interactive', 'cultural exchange', 'broaden their horizons', and 'adaptable'. This demonstrates a good range of less common vocabulary. To reach a 9, the answer could include even more idiomatic or topic-specific language, but the current usage is highly effective.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

The grammar is consistently accurate, with a good mix of simple and complex structures. The answer uses conditional ('it depends on'), present simple, and modal verbs ('have to', 'can'). There are no errors. To achieve a 9, the answer could incorporate a wider range of structures, such as passive voice or more complex conditionals, but the current accuracy and range are strong.
