To be honest, I used to be an internet junkie. I used to use the internet all the time. I needed to browse the web and check on social networks in Taiwan. It was a favorite pastime. But I've been quite busy lately, so I don't use the internet for my social networking as much anymore. Nowadays, I just go online sometimes to look for information and keep up with ongoing news. I find the internet especially helpful for that purpose.

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 answer is well-organized and coherent, demonstrating good control of language. However, the response begins with a personal anecdote which is not entirely necessary. Focus more directly on answering the question in a general way, rather than relying on personal experience. Consider providing a more concise and generalized response to the question of internet usage frequency.

Fluency & Coherence

The answer is coherent and mostly fluent. There are a few minor hesitations and slightly unnatural phrasing ("show the web", "show a favorite"). Improving the flow and precision of language would elevate the score.

Lexical Resource

The vocabulary is adequate, but some phrases could be more precise and natural. Using words like "browse" instead of "show" and replacing "show a favorite" with a more idiomatic expression would improve lexical resource.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

There are some grammatical inaccuracies ("internet young team", "in my SNS"). While the overall message is clear, improving grammatical accuracy and using a wider range of grammatical structures would significantly improve the score. Consider using more complex sentence structures.
