Conversation

Part 1

Examiner

Did you like going to parks as a child?

Candidate

Yes, I used to go to the park a lot with my family when I was a child and I also enjoy watching the ducks in the pond because it was a peaceful and fun to be outdoors.

Examiner

Do you still like going to parks now?

Candidate

Yes I do. I often go to the park to relax, usually in the evening where I read a book on a bench and then walk around the park for about a 30 minute stay.

Examiner

Would you like to see more parks in your city?

Candidate

No I didn't think so. I always walk the same path near my house because it is quiet and well maintained so I feel they are already enough parks in my area.

Examiner

Are there any parks you want to go to in the future?

Candidate

I would like to go to a park that has an enclosed dog area because my friend has a dog and is safer for them to run off lead.

Part 1

Did you like going to parks as a child?

Score: 78.0

Suggestion: Shorten and clarify your answer into 2–3 concise sentences. Start with a direct topic sentence, then add one specific supporting detail. Correct small grammar issues (e.g., “it was peaceful and fun to be outdoors” → “because it was peaceful and I enjoyed being outdoors”). Use a linking word if you add an extra point (for example, “and”).

Example: Yes — I loved going to parks with my family when I was a child. I especially enjoyed watching the ducks in the pond because it was peaceful and I liked being outdoors.

Do you still like going to parks now?

Score: 85.0

Suggestion: Keep the answer direct and ensure natural phrasing and concise structure. Combine related actions into one fluid sentence and correct minor phrasing (e.g., “for about a 30 minute stay” → “for about 30 minutes”). Use a linking word like “then” to show sequence.

Example: Yes, I do. I often go to the park in the evening to relax: I read a book on a bench and then walk around for about 30 minutes.

Would you like to see more parks in your city?

Score: 72.0

Suggestion: Begin with a clear topic sentence that directly answers the question (e.g., “No, I wouldn't.”). Avoid tense confusion and make sentences concise. Provide one specific reason and use a linking word such as “because” to connect your reason. Consider a brief contrast if relevant.

Example: No, I wouldn't. I usually walk the same nearby path because it is quiet and well maintained, so I feel there are already enough parks in my area.

Are there any parks you want to go to in the future?

Score: 70.0

Suggestion: Answer directly and correct grammar and clarity. Use a topic sentence then clarify the reason with a linking word like “because.” Fix phrasing such as “is safer for them to run off lead” → “where it’s safer for dogs to run off the lead.” Be specific about who benefits or what you plan to do there.

Example: Yes, I would like to visit a park that has an enclosed dog area because my friend has a dog and it would be safer for the dog to run off the lead there.

Grammar

Verb + -ing form

× I used to go to the park a lot with my family when I was a child and I also enjoy watching the ducks in the pond because it was a peaceful and fun to be outdoors.

I used to go to the park a lot with my family when I was a child, and I also enjoyed watching the ducks in the pond because it was peaceful and fun to be outdoors.

Mixed tense error and incorrect verb form: 'used to...when I was a child' sets a past context, so 'enjoy' should be past 'enjoyed'. Also 'it was a peaceful and fun to be outdoors' has an extra 'a' before 'peaceful' and mismatched structure; change to 'it was peaceful and fun to be outdoors'. Suggest aligning verb tenses and removing the extra article: use past tense verbs for past habits and correct adjective phrase structure.

Present tense issue

× Yes I do. I often go to the park to relax, usually in the evening where I read a book on a bench and then walk around the park for about a 30 minute stay.

Yes, I do. I often go to the park to relax, usually in the evening, where I read a book on a bench and then walk around the park for about a 30-minute stay.

Punctuation and hyphenation with tense consistency: add commas after 'Yes' and before the relative clause for clarity. '30 minute' should be hyphenated as '30-minute' when used as a compound adjective modifying 'stay'. The present tense verbs 'read' and 'walk' are correct for habitual actions; fix punctuation and hyphenation only.

Past tense issue

× No I didn't think so. I always walk the same path near my house because it is quiet and well maintained so I feel they are already enough parks in my area.

No, I don't think so. I always walk the same path near my house because it is quiet and well maintained, so I feel there are already enough parks in my area.

Tense and subject-verb agreement errors: The response to 'Would you like to see more parks' requires present opinion, so 'didn't think' should be 'don't think'. Also 'they are already enough parks' is incorrect order and pronoun: use 'there are already enough parks'. Add commas for clarity.

Modal verb usage

× I would like to go to a park that has an enclosed dog area because my friend has a dog and is safer for them to run off lead.

I would like to go to a park that has an enclosed dog area because my friend has a dog and it is safer for them to run off-lead.

Missing subject and hyphenation: the clause 'and is safer' lacks subject; add 'it' to refer to the enclosed area. Also 'off lead' as a compound modifier is commonly hyphenated as 'off-lead' or written 'off the lead'; choose one form and be consistent. Suggest 'it is safer for them to run off-lead' for clarity.
