Try using synonyms for the above words

Pronunciation

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

Task Response

The response is relevant and provides a clear answer to the question. The speaker elaborates on why they enjoy the holiday and what they typically do. To improve, the speaker could provide more specific details about their activities and use more varied vocabulary.

Fluency & Coherence

The response is generally coherent, but there are some minor hesitations. The structure is simple and could be improved by adding more detail and linking ideas more explicitly. For example, you could elaborate on how New Year helps you unwind or describe specific activities you enjoy with your friends.

Lexical Resource

The vocabulary is adequate but could be more precise. "Hustling the bustle lifestyle" is not a natural expression; consider using "the hustle and bustle of daily life." "Keep in touch" is good, but try to incorporate more varied vocabulary related to leisure and social activities. For example, use 'reconnect' instead of 'keep in touch'.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

There are some grammatical errors, such as "After hustling the bustle lifestyle such as reading book" (should be "After the hustle and bustle of my lifestyle, such as reading books") and "we visit at some someone's place" (should be "we visit someone's place"). Focus on using correct articles, prepositions, and verb tenses. Also, ensure subject-verb agreement.
