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 answer is relevant to the question, but it could benefit from more detail and a clearer structure. Consider expanding on your experiences growing up in the village and elaborating on the significance of your relationship with your cousin. A more descriptive and organized response would improve the overall quality.

Fluency & Coherence

The answer is coherent, but there is some repetition and slightly unnatural phrasing ("to say briefly", "that's why only I found my aunt's daughter"). Focus on smoother transitions and more concise sentence structures.

Lexical Resource

Vocabulary is adequate, but could be more precise and sophisticated. Instead of 'briefly,' consider a more descriptive phrase. The phrasing regarding the aunt's daughter is slightly awkward; reword for clarity and naturalness.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

There are some grammatical inaccuracies ("only I found"). Work on improving sentence structure and grammatical precision to avoid such errors. The overall grammar is understandable, but lacks sophistication.
