Task Response

The response addresses the question but lacks depth and specific examples. To improve, consider discussing the extent of responsibility, providing reasons for your stance, and offering concrete examples of how individuals can be held accountable or mitigate their environmental impact.

Fluency & Coherence

The response is somewhat coherent, but there are some hesitations and reformulations that affect the flow. The ideas are generally connected, but the delivery could be smoother. Try to organize your thoughts more clearly before speaking to improve coherence. Using discourse markers like 'furthermore' or 'in addition' can help connect your ideas more effectively.

Lexical Resource

The vocabulary is basic and somewhat repetitive ('cleaning,' 'throwing'). While the meaning is clear, the range of vocabulary is limited. Try to use more varied and precise vocabulary related to environmental responsibility and waste management. For example, instead of 'throwing,' you could use 'disposing of' or 'discarding.'

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

The grammar contains errors that occasionally impede understanding. The sentence structure is somewhat simple and repetitive. There are issues with word order and verb usage. For example, 'should not do only cleaning stuff but also residents' is grammatically awkward. Focus on using a wider range of grammatical structures and ensuring accuracy in basic sentence construction. Practice using conditional sentences and relative clauses to add complexity to your responses.
