I guess the difference between the past and now is quite significant because before, people didn't care about material things as much. But nowadays, everyone, from a seven-year-old child to a seventy-year-old person, always thinks about financial burdens or the stimuli related to money. I think it's not a bad thing because money is one of the vital parts of our lives, and so everyone cares and is concerned about it a lot.

Pronunciation

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 directly and provides a clear comparison between past and present attitudes towards money. The ideas are relevant and generally well-explained. To improve, consider providing more specific examples or elaborating on the reasons behind these changing attitudes. This would add depth and complexity to the answer.

Fluency & Coherence

The answer is generally coherent, but there are some hesitations and repetitions ('quite quite quite,' 'always think about always think about'). Using cohesive devices more effectively would improve the flow. Try to avoid unnecessary repetition by planning your answer structure beforehand.

Lexical Resource

The vocabulary is adequate but not particularly sophisticated. Words like 'vital' and 'financial burden' are appropriate, but the range could be broader. Try to incorporate more varied and precise vocabulary related to attitudes and money.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

There are some grammatical errors, such as 'in the before' and subject-verb agreement issues ('everyone always think'). While the overall meaning is clear, accuracy needs improvement. Focus on using a wider range of grammatical structures with better accuracy.
