Task Response

The answer is somewhat brief and lacks depth. Consider exploring the complexities of the question. For example, you could discuss different perspectives on money's importance, or explore the relationship between money and happiness in more detail. Elaborating on the statement 'We cannot be happy without money' would improve the response.

Fluency & Coherence

The answer is understandable, but the fluency could be improved. There are some hesitations and fillers ("Yeah," "Like") that disrupt the flow. Try to plan your response briefly before speaking to improve coherence and reduce filler words.

Lexical Resource

The vocabulary is basic. While the message is clear, using more sophisticated words to describe the importance of money would enhance the response. For example, instead of "basic needs," consider using terms like "essential necessities" or "fundamental requirements." Try to incorporate more precise language.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

There are some grammatical inaccuracies ("basic news" instead of "basic needs"). While the overall message is conveyed, focusing on accurate grammar will significantly improve the score. Review basic sentence structures and common grammatical errors.
