Nowadays, more and more people choose to live in the big city since it offers them a great number of benefits.

Moreover, the big city also offers people, especially workers, the opportunity to promote and access or apply to their favorite jobs and gives them a higher salary.

Pronunciation

5.5

Your pronunciation is average. It is understandable but not always accurate. Focusing on the rhythm and stress patterns of English could prove beneficial.

Task Response

The answer is well-organized and coherent, directly addressing the question. Consider expanding on the advantages by providing more specific examples or details to enrich your response and demonstrate a wider range of vocabulary.

Fluency & Coherence

The answer is coherent and well-organized. There is a slight stumble in the phrasing of the first point, but overall the ideas flow logically. Minor repetition could be avoided by using more varied sentence structures and transitions.

Lexical Resource

The vocabulary is adequate but not highly sophisticated. Words like "facility" are used somewhat vaguely. More precise language would improve the score. The phrase 'high loan' is inaccurate and needs correction to something like 'higher salaries' or 'better financial opportunities'.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

Grammar is mostly accurate, but there are a few errors. For example, 'the life in the big city allows to access' should be 'life in the big city allows access to' or 'living in a big city allows access to'. The sentence about promotion and access to jobs needs restructuring for clarity and grammatical accuracy. More varied sentence structures would enhance the response.
