We have to embrace that each individual has their own life. So we have to respect their lives by losing touch with each other. People usually spend time enhancing their work or career. For some reasons, I think that many people prefer to spend time investing in relationships that are supposed to be more important to them. For other reasons, I think that the distance between each other is much greater than it was at the beginning. So it can impact our relationships.

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 understandable and touches upon several relevant points, such as career focus and geographical distance. However, it could benefit from more detailed explanation and examples to support the claims. Consider exploring the impact of changing priorities, life stages, and communication methods on the loss of contact with old friends.

Fluency & Coherence

The answer is understandable, but the structure could be improved. There's some repetition and slightly unclear phrasing. Try to organize your thoughts into a more logical sequence with clearer transitions between ideas. For example, instead of saying 'in some reasons' and 'in another reasons,' use clearer transition words like 'Furthermore,' 'Moreover,' or 'Additionally.'

Lexical Resource

Vocabulary is adequate but lacks precision in places. Words like "enhance good in work" are not quite right. Try to use more precise vocabulary, such as 'advance their careers' or 'improve their professional prospects.' The phrase 'invest their relationships' is also slightly awkward; consider alternatives like 'cultivate their relationships' or 'prioritize their relationships.'

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

There are several grammatical errors, particularly with subject-verb agreement ('each individual has its own lives' should be 'each individual has his or her own life' or 'individuals have their own lives'). There are also issues with articles and prepositions. Focus on improving accuracy and using a wider range of grammatical structures. Practice using more complex sentence structures to demonstrate a higher level of grammatical proficiency.
