Band 7+: Some people who unexpectedly receive a large amount of money spend it on practical things, while others spend it for pleasure only. Which do you think is better and why?

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

The answer is well-organized and coherent, directly addressing the question with a clear opinion. Consider exploring the nuances of the question further by acknowledging the value of spending on pleasure while still emphasizing the long-term benefits of practical investments. Elaborating on the potential downsides of solely focusing on pleasure spending would strengthen the response.

The answer is coherent and well-structured. The ideas flow logically. Minor improvements could be made by adding a brief transition between the first and second sentences to enhance the flow even further. The conclusion could be slightly more nuanced; instead of stating life will be 'perfect,' a more moderate conclusion would be preferable.

The vocabulary is adequate and mostly accurate. Words like "invest" and "practical things" are used appropriately. More sophisticated vocabulary could be used to express the contrast between pleasure and practicality more effectively. For example, instead of 'practical things,' consider using 'long-term investments' or 'assets.'

Grammar is mostly accurate, with only minor errors. The sentence structure is simple but effective. Using more complex sentence structures and varied grammatical forms would improve the score. For example, instead of 'pleasure is temporary and practical things lost forever,' consider a more grammatically correct and sophisticated sentence such as 'Pleasure is fleeting, whereas the benefits of practical investments endure.'
