It's a really good question in the modern world. People are getting involved more and more in digital media. They can easily share their daily activities or opinions through social media. As most people are engaging with it, they can easily get information from there. Sometimes these topics are also political, and they can fuel discussions. For example, in 2024, there was a revolution happening in Bangladesh. I think it was largely due to the influence of social media because there is a lot of false news on national news channels, but people can find authentic news on social media. This allows them to easily understand what is happening in the country at any moment. So, I think that social media has a significant impact on our daily lives.

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 addresses the question and provides some relevant points about the role of social media in shaping public opinion and political discourse. However, the answer could be strengthened by providing more specific examples and a more in-depth analysis of the mechanisms through which social media influences public opinion. The reference to a specific event is helpful, but further elaboration on how social media played a role in that event would enhance the response. To improve, focus on providing more detailed explanations and a broader range of perspectives on the topic.

Fluency & Coherence

The response is generally coherent, but there are noticeable hesitations and repetitions ('easily, they can easily'). The organization of ideas is adequate, but could be improved with clearer transitions between points. To improve, practice speaking more smoothly and use linking words to connect your ideas more effectively.

Lexical Resource

The vocabulary is adequate for the task, but lacks precision and variety. The phrase 'make fuel' is not used correctly. To enhance your lexical resource, try to use more specific and varied vocabulary related to the topic of social media and political discourse. Focus on learning synonyms and collocations to express your ideas more accurately.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

The grammar is generally accurate, but there are some errors and awkward phrasing ('As all of the, as most of the people are engaging on it'). The range of structures is limited. To improve, focus on using a wider range of grammatical structures and pay attention to correcting common errors. Practice using complex sentences and different verb tenses to express your ideas more precisely.
