Dean Loud,

I hope you are well and enjoying your new step of life. I am writing to tell you about my planned visit to Boston and want to ask your advice on a couple of things.

My trip is for visiting my mom,because I miss her very much . I am so looking forward to it as I know how much You are excited about new chapter in your life.

Consequently I will be staying with my mom as I would like to spend some time with my family. In addition, it’s too expensive to stay at hotel and I think mom will not be mind if I live with her for a few days. Moreover,I want to help my mom with garden work.

What I wanted to ask you was where you recommend going for some evening entertainment . Restaurants with tasty meals with be perfect. I will be with my mother,that is why quite and cozy place will be the best option. if you could point us which concerts are taking place in the near future, that would be great to. Many thanks.

Task Response

7
The letter addresses the task requirements, explaining the reason for the visit, detailing accommodation, and asking for entertainment recommendations. There are some minor irrelevancies and awkward phrasing, but overall the letter is clear and fulfills the prompt's demands. To improve, focus on more concise and direct language, and ensure all information is relevant to the core task.

Coherence & Cohesion

6
The letter is generally coherent, but the organization could be improved. The purpose of the visit is stated, details of accommodation are provided, and a request for recommendations is made. However, the flow between some ideas feels a bit disjointed. For example, the transition between mentioning the excitement about the friend's new chapter and the details of staying with the mother could be smoother. Consider using more transitional phrases to link ideas and ensure a logical progression.

Lexical Resource

6
The vocabulary is adequate for the task, but there's room for improvement in terms of variety and sophistication. Words like 'tasty meals,' 'quite and cozy place,' and 'garden work' are functional but could be replaced with more descriptive or specific alternatives. Expanding your vocabulary and using more precise language would enhance the letter's impact. Boost vocabulary complexity to elevate the overall score.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

5
The letter contains several grammatical errors that affect clarity. Examples include subject-verb agreement issues ('Restaurants with tasty meals with be perfect') and awkward phrasing ('My trip is for visiting my mom,because I miss her very much'). While the overall meaning is understandable, correcting these errors would significantly improve the letter's grammatical accuracy. Pay close attention to sentence structure, verb tenses, and punctuation.
