I think when people lose things, they often feel a mix of anxiety, stress, and disappointment. Maybe they have lost some valuable items that they care about. It's not just about the cost of cards in the wallet, but it may also be a gift from their parents or friends, which makes them really disappointed in themselves. Moreover, some people put effort into looking for lost items, but their efforts are often in vain.

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 coherent and addresses the question. Consider expanding on the range of actions people take after losing things, going beyond emotional responses and including practical steps like retracing steps, checking common places, or reporting the loss to authorities. Broadening the scope of actions would strengthen the response.

Fluency & Coherence

The answer is coherent and mostly fluent. There are a few minor hesitations and slightly unnatural phrasing ("I'm losing things people often feel"), but the overall flow is good. Improving the smoothness of transitions between ideas would enhance fluency.

Lexical Resource

The vocabulary is adequate and mostly accurate. Words like "anxiety," "disappointment," and "valuable" are used appropriately. However, more precise and sophisticated vocabulary could be used to elevate the response. For example, instead of 'in vain,' consider 'unsuccessful' or 'fruitless'.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

The grammar contains some minor errors ("lost some valuable items that care..."). While the overall message is understandable, more attention to subject-verb agreement and sentence structure would improve accuracy. The use of grammatical structures is somewhat limited; more complex sentence structures would improve the score.
