Try using synonyms for the above words

Pronunciation

Your pronunciation is quite good. Working on consistency and tackling difficult sounds may enhance clarity.

Task Response

The answer is quite good and directly addresses the question. Consider exploring other motivations beyond solely displaying wealth and status. For example, you could mention the appreciation of craftsmanship, the value of a heirloom piece, or the use of a watch as a functional tool in addition to a status symbol. Expanding on these points would enrich your response.

Fluency & Coherence

The answer is understandable, but the fluency could be improved. There is some repetition and slightly unnatural phrasing. Try to speak in more complete sentences and avoid unnecessary words like 'actual'.

Lexical Resource

The vocabulary is adequate, but more precise and sophisticated word choices would enhance the response. Instead of 'expensive watchers,' use 'expensive watches.' Consider synonyms for 'influence' to show a wider range of vocabulary.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

There are grammatical errors, particularly in sentence structure and word order. Focus on improving sentence construction and subject-verb agreement. For example, 'they spend this amount of resources' is grammatically incorrect. Consider rephrasing as 'They allocate significant resources...' or 'They invest considerable sums...'.
