First and foremost, I would say there are a lot of reasons behind it. First of all, technology has impacted personal relationships significantly. For example, if I talk about the latest inventions like messenger social platforms, they create a gap between people. Most of the younger generation do not give their time to their parents, as they utilize their time on social media platforms. So, obviously, things are impacting relationships a lot currently, and they have also impacted them significantly in the past.

Pronunciation

7.5

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

Task Response

The answer is relevant to the question and provides some examples. However, it could be improved by providing a more balanced perspective, exploring both positive and negative impacts of technology on relationships, and elaborating on the examples with more details and specific instances. Consider structuring your response more clearly with a more developed introduction and conclusion.

Fluency & Coherence

The answer is somewhat repetitive and lacks a smooth flow. The phrasing 'First and foremost' is used unnecessarily. Try to structure your response more logically, perhaps by outlining the positive and negative impacts of technology on relationships separately. Work on reducing filler words like 'obviously' and 'so'.

Lexical Resource

Vocabulary is adequate but could be more precise and sophisticated. Instead of 'a lot of gap,' consider using phrases like 'a sense of distance' or 'strained relationships.' The term 'messenger social platforms' is a bit clunky; try 'social media' or 'online communication platforms'.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

Grammar contains several errors. The sentence 'technology impacted a lot in personal relationships' is grammatically incorrect. The tense is inconsistent; try to maintain a consistent present tense. Pay attention to subject-verb agreement and article usage. Practice using a wider range of grammatical structures, such as complex sentences, to improve fluency and accuracy.
