I believe the most efficient way to erase the barrier would be to make higher education more available to the public, to regular people. In that way, we would have a more informed society that would make smarter decisions in their lives. As a result, it would be much easier to explain to them some scientific research that is being conducted and that is really relevant in our modern life.

Pronunciation

Your pronunciation is quite good. Working on consistency and tackling difficult sounds may enhance clarity.

Task Response

The response addresses the question directly and provides a clear suggestion. To further enhance the answer, consider elaborating on specific strategies for making higher education more accessible and how this increased access would directly translate into better public understanding of scientific research. Providing concrete examples of scientific research relevant to modern life would also strengthen the response.

Fluency & Coherence

The response is generally coherent, but there are some hesitations ('I would say') and minor self-corrections that slightly affect fluency. Using more varied cohesive devices could further enhance coherence. For example, instead of repeating 'In that way,' consider using alternatives like 'Consequently' or 'Therefore' to link ideas.

Lexical Resource

The vocabulary is adequate but could be more precise. 'Publicity' is not the best word choice; 'public' is more appropriate. 'Smart decisions' could be replaced with a more sophisticated phrase like 'well-informed decisions.' To improve, focus on using synonyms and more specific vocabulary related to education and scientific understanding.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

The grammar is mostly accurate, with a good range of structures. Minor corrections, such as changing 'which are being made' to 'that is being conducted,' would enhance accuracy. Pay attention to article usage ('the publicity' should be 'the public').
