Lexical Resource

The vocabulary is adequate but could be more precise. Using 'evident' instead of 'witnessed' in the refined answer is a good example of a more appropriate word choice. Try to incorporate a wider range of vocabulary related to social issues and media to demonstrate greater lexical flexibility. For example, instead of 'famous and popular,' consider using 'widely viewed' or 'highly rated'.

The grammar is mostly accurate, but there are some errors (e.g., 'seek in this program,' 'somewhere they are on their stories,' 'this is a shamus'). Focus on using a wider range of grammatical structures and ensuring accuracy in sentence formation. Review common grammatical errors and practice constructing complex sentences correctly.
