Examiner
Do you prefer views in urban areas or rural areas?
Candidate
That's a really hard questions because I always go to rural area because you can like not just taking photo, you can actually be less yourself. But recently I actually like to take pictures in urban because the buildings, umm, the road, the cars give you more textures and more detail on the pictures.

Do you like taking pictures of different views?
Score: 52.0Suggestion: Improve clarity and accuracy: give a clear topic sentence, correct grammar, and specific supporting details. Avoid repetition and unclear phrases (e.g. 'white soch', 'narrow sock'). Use linking words to connect ideas and limit to 3–4 sentences. Focus on precise vocabulary like 'landscapes', 'close-ups', 'zoom in' and short examples of subjects you photograph.
Example: Yes, I enjoy photographing different landscapes. When I was young I had a camera that let me capture wide panoramas as well as close-up details, such as the texture of tree bark or distant mountain peaks. For example, I often photograph sunsets to capture broad colour gradients and flowers to show fine detail.
Do you prefer views in urban areas or rural areas?
Score: 60.0Suggestion: Make your preference explicit and support it with clear reasons and linking words. Correct grammar and awkward phrases (e.g. 'be less yourself'). Keep answers concise (3–4 sentences). Use comparative language if mentioning both options and give specific urban or rural examples (buildings, street scenes, fields, sunsets).
Example: I prefer urban views because the city offers interesting textures and details, such as old facades, busy streets and colourful signage. However, I also enjoy rural scenes for their peaceful atmosphere and wide-open skies. For instance, in cities I photograph architectural details, while in the countryside I focus on sweeping fields at sunset.
Do you prefer views in your own country or in other countries?
Score: 48.0Suggestion: Be direct and complete your thought: state your preference clearly and explain with specific reasons and examples. Fix grammar (e.g. 'more new idea', 'architectures') and avoid trailing off. Use linking words like 'because' and 'for example' and keep to 2–4 sentences.
Example: I prefer photographing views in other countries because they introduce different atmospheres and architectural styles that inspire me. For example, I photographed narrow alleys in Italy for their colours and textures, and modern skylines in Japan for their bold shapes, which helped me develop new ideas for composition.
× When I was young I used to have a cameras and cameras allow me to take a pictures for white soch or very narrow sock.
✓ When I was young I used to have a camera and it allowed me to take pictures of wide shots or very narrow shots.
Errors: incorrect article with plural/singular 'a cameras' (should be 'a camera'), incorrect verb tense/agreement 'cameras allow' should match singular subject and past habitual 'it allowed', unnecessary articles 'a pictures', wrong preposition 'for' should be 'of', and misspellings 'white soch' and 'sock' should be 'wide shots' and 'shots'. Suggestion: use correct article 'a' with singular noun, match verb tense to past habitual, remove extra articles before plural nouns, use 'of' after 'pictures', and check spelling.
× That's mean I can take a pictures that is wider than my visions or I can zoom in to take some detail of a fields.
✓ That means I can take pictures that are wider than my vision or I can zoom in to capture some details of a field.
Errors: 'That's mean' should be 'That means' (verb agreement), 'a pictures' uses singular article with plural noun—remove 'a', 'is' should agree with plural 'pictures' so use 'are', 'visions' should be singular 'vision' for general sense, 'take some detail' should be plural 'details' or 'capture some details', and 'a fields' mixes 'a' with plural 'fields' so use singular 'a field' or plural without 'a'. Suggestion: ensure number agreement between articles, nouns, and verbs, and use appropriate singular/plural forms.
× That's a really hard questions because I always go to rural area because you can like not just taking photo, you can actually be less yourself.
✓ That's a really hard question because I always go to rural areas; you can not only take photos, but you can actually be more yourself.
Errors: 'questions' should be singular to match 'That's a', 'rural area' should be plural 'rural areas' or 'the rural area', 'you can like not just taking photo' has incorrect word order and verb forms—use 'not only take photos', and 'be less yourself' is incorrect idiomatically; 'be more yourself' conveys intended meaning. Suggestion: match number between demonstratives and nouns, use correct correlative 'not only... but', use base verb after modal 'can', and choose correct idiomatic expression.
× But recently I actually like to take pictures in urban because the buildings, umm, the road, the cars give you more textures and more detail on the pictures.
✓ But recently I have actually been liking taking pictures in urban areas because the buildings, roads, and cars give you more texture and more detail in the pictures.
Errors: 'like to take' is acceptable but 'recently' suggests present perfect continuous 'have been liking' is more natural for a changing preference; 'urban' needs 'areas' or 'the urban environment', 'the road' should be plural 'roads' to match list, 'textures' can be 'texture' as an uncountable noun, and 'on the pictures' should be 'in the pictures'. Suggestion: use appropriate tense for recent change ('have been...'), ensure pluralization consistency in lists, and use correct preposition for content 'in'.
× Yes, it's definitely other countries because other countries can offer me a more new idea and new sites such as different atmospheres, architectures, St. views, cultures and this will affect the.
✓ Yes, definitely other countries, because they can offer me newer ideas and new sights such as different atmospheres, architectures, street views, and cultures, which will affect me.
Errors: awkward 'it's definitely other countries' — 'definitely' should modify choice; 'a more new idea' is incorrect comparative and article use—use 'newer ideas' or 'a new idea', 'sites' should be 'sights', 'St. views' unclear—interpreted as 'street views', sentence ends incomplete 'this will affect the.' needs an object like 'me'. Suggestion: choose correct comparative forms, correct word choice ('sights'), complete the clause with an object, and maintain parallel structure in lists.
