I think there are many reasons for this phenomenon, but at first, I believe that life is becoming more and more hasty, and young people have to deal with a lot of stress and overwhelm. They seek quick entertainment options, and short videos are a perfect choice for this. Later on, when I reflected on short videos, I found out that the algorithms on platforms like TikTok are designed to keep showing users content that they enjoy, which further fuels their obsession.

Task Response

The answer is well-organized and coherent, demonstrating a good understanding of the question. Consider exploring additional factors contributing to the trend, such as social influence and the ease of content creation and sharing.

Fluency & Coherence

The answer is coherent and mostly fluent. There are a few minor issues with fluency, such as the phrase "light is becoming more and more hasty and drunk people." This phrase is unclear and needs rephrasing. The overall structure is good, with a clear introduction and two main points. Improving the clarity of the first point would significantly improve the fluency score.

Lexical Resource

The vocabulary is adequate and mostly accurate. Words like "hasty," "overwhelm," and "algorithm" are used appropriately. However, some word choices could be more precise. For example, instead of "light is becoming more and more hasty," a more precise phrase would be better. Expanding the vocabulary with synonyms for "stress" and "obsession" would enhance the response.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

The grammar contains some errors, particularly in the first part of the answer. The sentence structure is sometimes awkward. For example, "because light is becoming more and more hasty and drunk people have to fade with a lot of stress and overwhelming and overwhelm" is grammatically incorrect and unclear. While the overall message is understandable, improving grammatical accuracy and sentence structure would significantly improve the score. The use of more complex grammatical structures would also be beneficial.
