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

Task Response

The answer is understandable, but lacks detail and natural flow. Consider providing more specific examples of illnesses and the corresponding actions taken. Elaborating on the types of 'simple pain' and 'serious' illnesses would improve the response.

Fluency & Coherence

The answer is understandable, but there are some hesitations and repetitions ("if it's be a simple actually pain", "if it is serious, if it is serious"). Smoother delivery and more concise phrasing would improve fluency. The structure is mostly coherent, but could benefit from clearer transitions between ideas.

Lexical Resource

The vocabulary is adequate but not particularly sophisticated. Words like "simple pain" are functional but lack precision. More precise medical vocabulary (e.g., describing the type of pain) would enhance the response. The phrase "take a risk" is slightly unclear in this context.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

There are several grammatical errors ("if it's be a simple actually pain", "wants to have take a risk", "I should go see and I should go to doctor"). While the overall meaning is clear, these errors detract from the grammatical accuracy. More attention to subject-verb agreement and correct tense usage is needed. The sentence structure is sometimes awkward.
