Examiner
Do you prefer views in your own country or in other countries?
Candidate
I actually prefer to take photographs of my own country. I don't visit any other country, but if I have a chance I will prefer to take views of my country because my country is very beautiful, having lush green areas, beautiful mountains.
Do you like taking pictures of different views?
Score: 62.0Suggestion: Be more natural and concise. Start with a clear topic sentence, avoid fillers (uh, buddy), correct grammar (use present continuous or simple present correctly), and give one or two specific details using linking words. Keep it within 3–4 sentences.
Example: Yes, I really enjoy taking pictures of different views. I bought my phone mainly for photography because it has an excellent camera, and I often photograph natural landscapes such as green fields and mountains. I find it relaxing and it has become my favourite hobby.
Do you prefer views in urban areas or rural areas?
Score: 58.0Suggestion: Answer directly, avoid unclear words and pronunciation errors, and use linking words to explain reason. Use correct vocabulary (rural, not Polaria's) and keep to 2–3 sentences with specific examples.
Example: I prefer views in rural areas because they have lush green fields and scenic landscapes. For example, I enjoy photographing winding country roads and small farms, which feel peaceful compared to busy cities.
Do you prefer views in your own country or in other countries?
Score: 70.0Suggestion: Good clear preference, but make it more concise and add a specific reason or example. Use linking words for clarity and avoid repetition. Correct minor grammar (use present simple and smoother phrasing).
Example: I prefer taking photographs in my own country because I know its landscapes well and they are very beautiful. For instance, I often capture the green hills and mountain views near my hometown, which reflect local colours and traditions better than places I haven't visited.
× Yes, buddy, I really like taking pictures.
✓ Yes, I really like taking pictures.
The informal address 'buddy' is unnecessary and awkward in this context. Remove it to make the sentence appropriate and grammatically correct.
× Actually I bought my phone for this purpose and uh, my phone camera is very excellent and uh, I taking pictures of natural topography and landscape and uh green fields.
✓ Actually I bought my phone for this purpose, and my phone camera is excellent, and I take pictures of natural topography, landscapes, and green fields.
'Very excellent' is redundant; use 'excellent'. 'I taking' is incorrect verb form; use present simple 'I take'. Use plural 'landscapes' and add commas for clarity.
× Uh, I really like this. This is my hobby.
✓ I really like it. This is my hobby.
Use 'it' as the pronoun referring to taking pictures. The original 'this' is not incorrect but 'it' is more natural. Tense is present simple, appropriate for habits.
× But he actually, I like taking views in rural areas because rural areas have very beautiful lush green topography landscape and green fields.
✓ Actually, I like taking views in rural areas because they have beautiful, lush green landscapes and fields.
Remove 'But he' which is irrelevant and confusing. Replace repeated 'rural areas' with pronoun 'they' and correct noun forms to plural 'landscapes' and add commas for adjective order.
× That's why I like uh, Polaria's.
✓ That's why I like rural areas.
'Polaria's' is nonstandard and unclear. Use 'rural areas' to match previous sentence. Avoid unnecessary apostrophe.
× I actually prefer to take photographs of my own country.
✓ I actually prefer to take photographs of my own country.
This sentence is grammatically correct. 'Prefer to take' is acceptable; no change needed. (Included for completeness.)
× I don't visit any other country, but if I have a chance I will prefer to take views of my country because my country is very beautiful, having lush green areas, beautiful mountains.
✓ I haven't visited any other country, but if I have a chance, I would prefer to take photographs of my country because it is very beautiful, with lush green areas and beautiful mountains.
Use present perfect 'haven't visited' to indicate life experience up to now. 'Will prefer' is awkward in conditional; use 'would prefer'. Use 'photographs' or 'views' consistently; 'it' replaces repeated 'my country' and 'with' connects descriptions more naturally.
