Polished transcript:

To be honest, I'm a shopaholic, especially when it comes to clothes. So I usually go shopping multiple times on the weekends to pick up some of the latest trendy items. Although, some of the outfits I never try on any occasion. I cannot resist my temptation to buy something new. I think I should limit my spending on it.

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

Task Response

The response addresses the question by discussing the frequency of shopping on weekends. However, there is some deviation from the topic when mentioning trying on outfits. More focus on the frequency of shopping would improve the task response.

Fluency & Coherence

The answer lacks coherence due to some disjointed sentences and unclear progression of ideas. There are also instances of repetition ('some of it, some of the outfits'). Improving the flow and avoiding repetition would enhance fluency and coherence.

Lexical Resource

The vocabulary used is suitable for the topic, with terms like 'shopaholic' and 'temptation' adding depth to the response. However, there is room for improvement in using more varied vocabulary and avoiding repetitive phrases ('some of it, some of the outfits').

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

The grammatical structures are mostly accurate, but there are some errors in sentence structure and word choice ('sopping molds' instead of 'shopping malls'). More complex sentence structures and varied sentence beginnings would elevate the grammatical range and accuracy.
