Pronunciation

Your pronunciation is very good. Aim to refine subtleties and intonation to further improve.

Task Response

The response is satisfactory, but it could benefit from addressing all parts of the question more comprehensively. Consider expanding on your use of the internet in your free time, your views on overuse, future developments, negative aspects, and your major/studies in more detail. Elaborating on these points would strengthen your response.

Fluency & Coherence

The response is coherent and mostly fluent. However, there are some minor hesitations and filler words ('uh'). Improving fluency would involve reducing these and speaking more smoothly. The structure is good, but could be improved by more explicitly addressing each question in turn.

Lexical Resource

Vocabulary is adequate, but could be more precise and sophisticated. Phrases like 'very many things' could be replaced with more specific examples. The use of 'feing to be missing out' is not quite correct; consider using 'fear of missing out (FOMO)' or a similar phrase.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

Grammar is mostly accurate, with only minor errors. The sentence 'I use Internet more in my study time as uh, it can really help me making my work' contains a minor grammatical error ('making my work' should be 'with my work'). Using a wider range of grammatical structures would improve the score.
