I think it's their opinion because most people want to go abroad for work because they need a lot of money and are suffering from financial problems. It will provide financial support to their families. So they have a lot of income in this situation. But other people want to stay in their nation because they want to establish themselves in their country. If there are lots of job opportunities and they can achieve better discipline, most people want to get jobs in their countries. As a result, they are quite physical and really stressed because most people feel overwhelmed, and it is quite reduced stress. Indefinitely, there is no job stress.

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 topic by presenting two different perspectives: the financial motivation for working abroad and the desire to build a career locally. However, the answer lacks depth and logical cohesion. The final section of the response becomes somewhat confusing, as the connection between staying in one's country, physical stress, and the reduction of stress is not clearly articulated. To improve, focus on developing a clear logical progression. Instead of jumping between ideas, use cohesive devices (e.g., 'On the other hand,' 'Furthermore,' 'Consequently') to link your points. Additionally, ensure that each point directly supports the central argument to avoid tangential or unclear statements.

Fluency & Coherence

The speaker attempts to present two sides of an argument, which is good for Part 3. However, the coherence is weak due to repetitive sentence structures (starting many sentences with 'So' or 'Because') and a lack of sophisticated cohesive devices. The progression of ideas is somewhat circular. To improve, use more advanced linking words such as 'On the other hand,' 'Conversely,' or 'From a financial perspective' to guide the listener through your logic.

Lexical Resource

The vocabulary is quite limited and repetitive (e.g., repeating 'most of the people' and 'financial' multiple times). There are also instances of word choice errors that obscure meaning, such as 'go to a vote for their work' (likely meaning 'go abroad') and 'a strip is full' (which is unintelligible). To reach a higher band, try to use synonyms. Instead of 'a lot of money,' use 'substantial income' or 'financial stability.' Instead of 'want to go,' use 'aspire to relocate.'

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

The response relies heavily on simple sentence structures. There are several grammatical errors, particularly with subject-verb agreement and article usage (e.g., 'others people' instead of 'other people'). The final sentences become quite confusing grammatically, making it difficult to understand the intended meaning regarding stress. Work on using complex sentences (subordinate clauses) and ensure that your subject and verb always align correctly.

do you think people need to change jobs regularly if they want to stay satisfied at work.

I would say job satisfaction boils down to a few key elements which doesn’t necessarily involve regular change of jobs. First and foremost when a job pays high one makes it fairly easy to make ends meet and even save for a rainy day. So there might actually be no need for change of jobs. […]

Should the government do more to encourage people to eat healthy food?

Actually, yes, I think so. Governments should encourage residents to maintain their well-being and health. In addition, processed foods and genetically modified foods lead to the loss of money and a variety of diseases. As a result, governments may have a heavier economic burden. I believe that government’s interference plays a crucial role in society.
