Task Response

The answer is quite good, directly addressing the question and highlighting key differences. To improve, consider providing more specific examples of app usage or elaborating on the reasons behind the differences in technology adoption between age groups. A more nuanced comparison would further strengthen the response.

Fluency & Coherence

The answer is coherent and well-organized. The ideas flow logically. Minor improvements could be made by using smoother transitions between sentences. For example, instead of starting with 'Many differences...', a more sophisticated opening like 'A significant difference lies in...' would enhance fluency.

Lexical Resource

The vocabulary is adequate and appropriate for the topic. Words like 'various apps' and 'short videos' are used effectively. More sophisticated vocabulary could be incorporated to demonstrate a wider range, such as 'digital natives' instead of 'young people' and 'technological adoption' instead of 'accept new things'.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

The grammar is mostly accurate, but there are a few minor errors. The sentence 'And most of them can only make calls and send text messages on their mobile phones' could be improved by using a more concise structure. The use of parallel structure in the final sentence could be improved for better flow. For example, instead of 'shop online, play mobile games. Watch short videos', it could be 'shop online, play mobile games, and watch short videos'.
