Examiner
Do you prefer views in your own country or in other countries?
Candidate
It's a challenging question. I believe that each country is around the world, has their own views and most people like to visit them and I cannot choose among them since I live in a four season country and also I live in ancient country. We have lots of pictures, landscapes and also monument and historical places. So I like all of them. But I like to visit other areas and like to capture.
Do you like taking pictures of different views?
Score: 58.0Suggestion: Reduce hesitation and repetition, use a clear topic sentence, and add one or two specific details. Remove filler words (uh, um). Keep answers concise (max 5 sentences) and use correct collocations (e.g., "develop my photos" or "keep them in an album"). Use linking words like "also" or "sometimes" to connect ideas.
Example: Yes, I enjoy taking pictures of different views. I especially like photographing the sea and forests because their colours and textures are very peaceful. I also sometimes develop my best photos and keep them in a physical album to remember special trips.
Do you prefer views in urban areas or rural areas?
Score: 62.0Suggestion: Start with a clear topic sentence stating your preference. Use accurate vocabulary (e.g., "closer to nature", "skyscrapers", "pollution") and correct grammar (subject-verb agreement, articles). Use linking phrases such as "because", "for example", and "however" to structure reasons and contrast. Finish complete sentences and avoid fragments.
Example: I prefer rural views because they bring you closer to nature and usually include forests and beaches that create a peaceful atmosphere. For example, looking at the sea or trees improves my mood and helps me relax. However, urban areas often have many skyscrapers and more pollution, which I find less appealing.
Do you prefer views in your own country or in other countries?
Score: 56.0Suggestion: Answer directly with a clear stance (e.g., both or no preference) and then give specific reasons. Correct grammatical errors (e.g., "each country around the world has its own views", "four-season country", "ancient country"). Use linking words like "because", "for instance", and "however". Keep to 3–4 sentences and give one concrete example of places you like.
Example: I can't choose one over the other because both my country and other countries have beautiful views. For instance, my country has four distinct seasons and many historical monuments, which I enjoy photographing. However, I also like visiting foreign countries to discover different landscapes and cultures to capture in my photos.
× I like to capture the moment and scenery when we go on a trip, uh, and we visit, uh, sea and forest ambitious, uh, I like to, uh, capture of moments and sceneries and take photo of them.
✓ I like to capture moments and scenery when we go on trips, and we visit the sea and forests; I like to take photos of them.
Incorrect use of noun forms and redundant 'capture of' plus pluralization. Use 'capture moments and scenery' (no 'the' needed), plural 'trips', 'sea and forests' (plural for multiple forests), and 'take photos' for correct noun form. Remove filler words and fix word order. Grammar problem type ID:8
× And I sometimes, uh, I have the, my photo to developed, uh, because I like to, uh, keep them in the.
✓ And sometimes I have my photos developed because I like to keep them.
Incorrect verb form 'to developed' — should be past participle 'developed' after 'have' (causative have). Also correct 'photo' to plural 'photos' to match 'them' and remove unfinished clause. Grammar problem type ID:9
× Frankly speaking, I prefer the view of rural areas because we come closer to the nature and we can see lots of forests and also beaches and allow you produce a joyful atmosphere.
✓ Frankly speaking, I prefer the views of rural areas because we come closer to nature and can see many forests and beaches, which create a joyful atmosphere.
Incorrect preposition 'to the nature' should be 'to nature' (no article). 'Allow you produce' is incorrect structure — use 'which create' to link and describe atmosphere. Also use 'many' for countable plural 'forests'. Grammar problem type ID:11
× When we look at them, it's improves our mood and recharges our batteries.
✓ When we look at them, they improve our mood and recharge our batteries.
Incorrect subject-verb agreement and pronoun reference: 'it's improves' wrongly combines contraction and verb. Use plural 'they' to refer to views, and plural verbs 'improve' and 'recharge'. Grammar problem type ID:27
× But in urban areas there are lots of high races and skyscraper, they produce lots of pollution.
✓ But in urban areas there are lots of high-rises and skyscrapers; they produce a lot of pollution.
Singular/plural mismatch: use plural 'high-rises' and 'skyscrapers'. Also 'lots of pollution' better as 'a lot of pollution' and combine clauses properly. Grammar problem type ID:1
× So we.
✓ So we prefer rural views.
Incomplete sentence fragment 'So we.' lacks a verb and object. Provide a complete thought consistent with prior context. Grammar problem type ID:26
× It's a challenging question.
✓ That's a difficult question.
While 'It's a challenging question' is grammatically acceptable, 'That's a difficult question' is more natural in conversation. This is a stylistic adjustment to improve clarity and tone. Grammar problem type ID:26
× I believe that each country is around the world, has their own views and most people like to visit them and I cannot choose among them since I live in a four season country and also I live in ancient country.
✓ I believe that each country in the world has its own views, and most people like to visit them. I cannot choose because I live in a four-season country and also in an ancient country.
Pronoun agreement: 'each country' is singular so use 'its' not 'their'. Word order 'country is around the world' is incorrect; use 'in the world'. Also 'four season' should be hyphenated 'four-season', and 'ancient country' needs article 'an'. Grammar problem type ID:12
× We have lots of pictures, landscapes and also monument and historical places.
✓ We have many landscapes, monuments, and historical sites.
Use plural nouns 'monuments' and preferable 'historical sites' instead of 'places'. Use 'many' for countable nouns rather than 'lots of' for a more formal structure. Grammar problem type ID:13
× So I like all of them. But I like to visit other areas and like to capture.
✓ So I like all of them, but I also like to visit other areas and capture their views.
Incomplete verb phrase 'like to capture' needs an object; add 'their views'. Maintain infinitive 'to visit' and 'capture' in parallel structure. Grammar problem type ID:8
