Conversation

Part 1

Examiner

Do you like chatting with friends?

Candidate

Uh, I did when I was younger, but now I just don't have enough friends. But when I used to be a teenager, I dedicated my whole free time to chatting with friends. I use different messengers. I also did video calls, so it was one of my best ideas on how to spend my free time. But now, no I don't.

Examiner

What do you usually chat about with friends?

Candidate

About university or hobbies, uh, all my friends come from my university so we usually discuss lectures or seminars and we also like to give our own opinion about uh teachers, uh and professors because some of them are not as professional as we would like them to see.

Examiner

Do you prefer to chat with a group of people or with only one friend?

Candidate

With only one friend, obviously, because I'm quite introverted. I wouldn't say that I'm the most, uh, extroverted or introverted person in the world. But it's hard for me to concentrate on the dialogue if it, uh, includes, uh, more than two people. Because I want to pay attention to everyone and it's a good luck for me when there are.

Examiner

Do you prefer to communicate face-to-face or via social media?

Candidate

Face to face, obviously, uh, to me, social media is not enough because I'd like to see some, umm, nonverbal signs, uh, like the posture, the emotions. And it's very hard for me to understand this through text or through video calls. I prefer to see the person in general.

Examiner

Do you argue with friends?

Candidate

No, I stopped doing it when there was a danger. I was very competitive, so I used to argue a lot. But now since I've grown up, uh, I uh, decided to, I just avoid confrontation as much as possible because I don't have so many friends now. So it's uh, easier for me to just decide to stop and be as calm as possible.

Score: 65.0

Suggestion: Ответ содержит много пауз и незавершенных мыслей, что снижает его естественность и ясность. Рекомендуется структурировать ответ с четким утверждением, использовать связующие слова и завершать мысли, чтобы сделать речь более плавной и понятной.

Example: I prefer chatting with just one friend because I'm quite introverted. When there are more than two people, I find it difficult to focus on the conversation and pay attention to everyone. Therefore, one-on-one chats are more comfortable for me.

Do you prefer to communicate face-to-face or via social media?

Score: 80.0

Suggestion: Ответ достаточно хороший, но содержит несколько пауз и нечетких слов. Рекомендуется использовать более плавные выражения и связующие слова для улучшения связности и естественности речи.

Example: I definitely prefer face-to-face communication because it allows me to observe nonverbal cues like posture and emotions. These signals are hard to interpret through text or even video calls, so seeing the person in person makes the interaction more meaningful.

Grammar

Past tense issue

× I did when I was younger, but now I just don't have enough friends.

I liked chatting when I was younger, but now I just don't have enough friends.

The original sentence uses 'did' without a main verb, which is incorrect. The verb 'like' should be used in the past tense 'liked' to express past preference. Suggestion: use 'liked' to correctly indicate past liking.

Past tense issue

× I also did video calls, so it was one of my best ideas on how to spend my free time.

I also did video calls, so it was one of my best ways to spend my free time.

The phrase 'best ideas on how to spend' is awkward. 'Ways to spend' is more natural. The past tense 'did' is acceptable here, but the phrase needs correction for naturalness.

Present tense issue

× I use different messengers.

I used different messengers.

The context is about past habits when the student was younger, so the verb should be in past tense 'used' instead of present 'use'.

Incorrect use of pronouns

× we also like to give our own opinion about uh teachers, uh and professors because some of them are not as professional as we would like them to see.

we also like to give our own opinions about teachers and professors because some of them are not as professional as we would like them to be.

The phrase 'like them to see' is incorrect; it should be 'like them to be' to express desired qualities. Also, 'opinion' should be plural 'opinions' to match 'we'.

Incorrect use of prepositions

× I wouldn't say that I'm the most, uh, extroverted or introverted person in the world.

I wouldn't say that I'm the most extroverted or introverted person in the world.

The sentence is correct but the commas around 'uh' are unnecessary. Removing filler words improves clarity.

Sentence structure errors

× But it's hard for me to concentrate on the dialogue if it, uh, includes, uh, more than two people.

But it's hard for me to concentrate on the dialogue if it includes more than two people.

Removing filler words 'uh' and unnecessary commas improves sentence clarity and flow.

Sentence structure errors

× Because I want to pay attention to everyone and it's a good luck for me when there are.

Because I want to pay attention to everyone, and it's good luck for me when there are fewer people.

The original sentence is incomplete and unclear. Adding 'fewer people' clarifies the meaning. Also, 'a good luck' is incorrect; 'good luck' is uncountable and does not need 'a'.

Incorrect use of prepositions

× Face to face, obviously, uh, to me, social media is not enough because I'd like to see some, umm, nonverbal signs, uh, like the posture, the emotions.

Face to face, obviously. To me, social media is not enough because I'd like to see some nonverbal signs, like posture and emotions.

Removing filler words and commas improves clarity. Also, 'the posture, the emotions' should be 'posture and emotions' without 'the' for general meaning.

Incorrect use of prepositions

× And it's very hard for me to understand this through text or through video calls.

And it's very hard for me to understand this through text or video calls.

The repeated 'through' is unnecessary; using it once before the list is sufficient.

Past tense issue

× No, I stopped doing it when there was a danger.

No, I stopped doing it when there was danger.

The phrase 'when there was a danger' is awkward; 'when there was danger' is more natural and idiomatic.

Past tense issue

× I was very competitive, so I used to argue a lot.

I was very competitive, so I used to argue a lot.

This sentence is correct; no correction needed.

Present tense issue

× But now since I've grown up, uh, I uh, decided to, I just avoid confrontation as much as possible because I don't have so many friends now.

But now since I've grown up, I just avoid confrontation as much as possible because I don't have many friends now.

The verb 'decided' is past tense but the context is present habit, so 'decided to' should be removed or changed to 'decide to'. Also, 'so many friends' is better as 'many friends' in negative sentences.

Sentence structure errors

× So it's uh, easier for me to just decide to stop and be as calm as possible.

So it's easier for me to just decide to stop and be as calm as possible.

Removing filler 'uh' improves sentence clarity.
