Conversation

Part 1

Examiner

Do you like taking pictures of different views?

Candidate

No, I'm not really into taking photos of scenery. I prefer photographing people that rather than scenes. Umm. I feel that uh, photographing people can capture expressions and memories and I enjoy the interaction I have with my subjects.

Examiner

Do you prefer views in urban areas or rural areas?

Candidate

I prefer views in rural areas to those in urban areas because the countryside is more peaceful and has beautiful natural scenery like rolling hills and fields. I also enjoy fresh air and open spaces where cities often feel overcrowded and noisy.

Examiner

Do you prefer views in your own country or in other countries?

Candidate

It depends but if I have to choose, I like to choose my country. I believe that everywhere has its own special places to explore and in my country there are some places where I can relax and make a break free from busy lifestyle.

Part 1

Do you like taking pictures of different views?

Score: 78.0

Suggestion: Cố gắng trả lời trực tiếp, mạch lạc hơn và tránh tiếng “umm/uh”. Nên sửa ngữ pháp nhỏ (ví dụ “photographing people rather than scenes” thay vì “that rather than scenes”) và thêm một câu chi tiết cụ thể hơn (ví dụ nêu một kỷ niệm hoặc ví dụ về tương tác với đối tượng). Đồng thời giữ độ dài dưới 5 câu và dùng từ nối để liên kết ý.

Example: No, I don't usually take pictures of scenery; I prefer photographing people rather than landscapes. I find faces more expressive because they show emotions and tell stories, and I enjoy directing my subjects to capture natural moments. For example, I once photographed a family reunion where candid shots captured genuine joy and created lasting memories.

Do you prefer views in urban areas or rural areas?

Score: 84.0

Suggestion: Câu trả lời tốt nhưng hơi dài; bạn nên tách thành câu chủ đề rồi thêm 1–2 chi tiết cụ thể bằng từ nối (for example, because, moreover). Tránh lặp từ như “areas” và cân nhắc đưa vào một so sánh ngắn để tăng tính thuyết phục.

Example: I prefer rural views to urban ones because the countryside is more peaceful and scenic. For example, I love walking among rolling hills and open fields where the fresh air and quiet help me relax, whereas cities often feel crowded and noisy.

Do you prefer views in your own country or in other countries?

Score: 76.0

Suggestion: Cần câu trả lời mạch lạc hơn: bắt đầu bằng câu chủ đề rõ ràng, sau đó giải thích lý do cụ thể và tránh lỗi diễn đạt như “make a break free”. Thêm một ví dụ cụ thể về một địa điểm trong nước sẽ làm câu trả lời sinh động và thuyết phục hơn.

Example: It depends, but if I had to choose I would prefer views in my own country. I feel there are unique, familiar places at home where I can truly relax; for instance, I often visit a nearby lakeside park to escape the busy city and unwind.

Grammar

Incorrect use of pronouns

× I prefer photographing people that rather than scenes.

I prefer photographing people rather than scenes.

The relative pronoun 'that' is unnecessary and incorrect here. Remove 'that' to correctly compare two items with 'rather than'. Suggestion: use 'rather than' directly after the first noun phrase (photographing people) to show contrast.

Sentence structure errors

× Umm. I feel that uh, photographing people can capture expressions and memories and I enjoy the interaction I have with my subjects.

I feel that photographing people can capture expressions and memories, and I enjoy the interaction I have with my subjects.

Fillers like 'Umm' and 'uh' are spoken hesitations and not part of written grammar. Also, a comma is needed before the coordinating conjunction 'and' that joins two independent clauses. Suggestion: remove fillers in writing and add a comma to join the clauses correctly.

Singular and plural issue

× I prefer views in rural areas to those in urban areas because the countryside is more peaceful and has beautiful natural scenery like rolling hills and fields.

I prefer views in rural areas to those in urban areas because the countryside is more peaceful and has beautiful natural scenery, such as rolling hills and fields.

The sentence is mostly correct, but 'like' can be informal or ambiguous; 'such as' is clearer when listing examples. Add a comma before the example phrase to improve readability. This addresses usage choices related to plural nouns and example introduction.

Present tense issue

× I also enjoy fresh air and open spaces where cities often feel overcrowded and noisy.

I also enjoy fresh air and open spaces, while cities often feel overcrowded and noisy.

Using 'where' implies location for 'open spaces' but causes a slight mismatch: 'cities' are not the same antecedent as 'open spaces'. Replacing 'where' with 'while' correctly contrasts the two ideas. Suggestion: use 'while' to contrast conditions between rural and urban settings.

Sentence structure errors

× It depends but if I have to choose, I like to choose my country.

It depends, but if I have to choose, I would choose my country.

The original repeats 'choose' awkwardly and mixes present simple with a hypothetical choice. Using 'would choose' expresses a conditional preference and avoids repetition. Also add a comma after 'depends' for clarity.

Incorrect use of prepositions

× I believe that everywhere has its own special places to explore and in my country there are some places where I can relax and make a break free from busy lifestyle.

I believe that everywhere has its own special places to explore, and in my country there are some places where I can relax and take a break from a busy lifestyle.

Several preposition and collocation errors: 'make a break free from busy lifestyle' is incorrect. Use 'take a break from' and include the article 'a' before 'busy lifestyle'. Also add a comma to join the two independent clauses. Suggestion: use common collocations ('take a break from a busy lifestyle') for natural phrasing.
