Part 1

Examiner

Do you like reading?

Candidate

I extremely enjoy reading, especially science articles. I can read books every day. Honestly, by borrowing a question above from library, I can consume it day by day without boring.

Examiner

Do you prefer to read on paper or on a screen?

Candidate

I think it's depends on what I'm reading. For serious information and academic materials, I prefer paper based document because it provides me with sensory feedback so I can take more concentration on absorbing knowledge. However, for quick information like news article, I think it's much more convenient to read on screen.

Examiner

When do you need to read carefully, and when not?

Candidate

I read carefully materials that provide long term values all require critical thinking. For example, we have to read work to work for research study or caricature because mistake resume cannot reverse in contract for social media or entertainment contains which need to read quickly for relaxing.

Examiner

Do you prefer scanning or detailed reading?

Candidate

In my opinion, I lie much about detail reading because I am a science lover. So I read science content as usual which require most critical taking to understand the given knowledge. If I read uncapitly, I would misunderstand important detail.

Part 1

Do you like reading?

Score: 55.0

Suggestion: Make your answer more natural and coherent. Start with a clear topic sentence, avoid awkward phrasing and redundancy, and add one specific supporting detail. Use simpler, correct collocations (e.g., 'I really enjoy', 'I borrow books from the library'). Keep it within 3–4 sentences.

Example: I really enjoy reading, especially science articles and popular science books. I read almost every day because I find new research and explanations fascinating. For example, I recently borrowed a book from the library about climate science and read a chapter each evening.

Do you prefer to read on paper or on a screen?

Score: 70.0

Suggestion: Good structure and clear contrast. Improve grammar (e.g., 'it depends', 'paper-based documents'), shorten and clarify reasons using linking words like 'because' and 'whereas'. Give one concise example to support your preference.

Example: It depends on the material. For academic texts I prefer paper-based documents because handling the pages helps me focus and retain information, whereas for quick news or updates I read on screen because it’s faster and more convenient.

When do you need to read carefully, and when not?

Score: 35.0

Suggestion: Clarify your main idea and correct grammar. Use a clear topic sentence: say when you read carefully and when you skim. Provide two specific, coherent examples (e.g., research papers vs. social media). Avoid confusing phrases and keep sentences short and logical with linking words like 'for example' and 'whereas'.

Example: I read carefully when the material has long-term consequences, such as research papers or official contracts, because mistakes can be serious. On the other hand, I skim social media posts or entertainment articles when I want to relax and don’t need detailed understanding.

Do you prefer scanning or detailed reading?

Score: 40.0

Suggestion: Correct vocabulary and grammar and state a clear preference. Replace incorrect words ('lie much', 'uncapitly') with appropriate phrases ('I prefer detailed reading', 'carelessly'). Give a succinct reason and an example showing why detailed reading matters for science content.

Example: I prefer detailed reading because scientific texts often contain complex ideas that need careful thought. For example, when reading a research article I go through the methods and results slowly to avoid misunderstanding important points.

Grammar

Adverb/adjective misuse & intensifier

× I extremely enjoy reading, especially science articles.

I really enjoy reading, especially science articles.

The student used 'extremely' with 'enjoy' which is grammatically possible but sounds unnatural here; native speakers more commonly use adverbs like 'really' or 'greatly' with 'enjoy'. This is an incorrect use of an adverb of degree in context (treated as Incorrect use of adjectives or adverbs, ID 13). Suggestion: use 'really' or 'greatly' depending on formality.

Present tense issue

× I can read books every day.

I read books every day.

Using 'can' implies ability rather than habitual action. The sentence describes a habitual activity, so the simple present tense 'I read' is appropriate (Present tense issue, ID 6). Suggestion: remove 'can' when stating routines.

Article errors

× Honestly, by borrowing a question above from library, I can consume it day by day without boring.

Honestly, by borrowing a book from the library, I can read it day by day without getting bored.

Multiple errors: 'question above' is likely wrong word choice; 'library' needs the definite article 'the' (Article errors, ID 22 and Incorrect use of nouns). 'Consume' is an odd verb for reading and 'without boring' is incorrect; correct form is 'without getting bored' (Incorrect use of adjectives/adverbs, ID 13). Suggestion: use 'borrow a book from the library' and 'read it... without getting bored.'

Incorrect use of pronouns

× I think it's depends on what I'm reading.

I think it depends on what I'm reading.

The contraction 'it's' with 'depends' causes a subject-verb redundancy; the correct subject is 'it' not 'it's' (Incorrect use of pronouns / subject-verb agreement, ID 12 and 27). Suggestion: say 'I think it depends...'.

Article errors

× For serious information and academic materials, I prefer paper based document because it provides me with sensory feedback so I can take more concentration on absorbing knowledge.

For serious information and academic materials, I prefer paper-based documents because they provide sensory feedback, so I can concentrate more on absorbing knowledge.

Errors: 'paper based' needs hyphen as adjective 'paper-based' and 'document' should be plural 'documents' to match 'materials' (Article/errors and singular-plural, ID 22 and 1). 'Provides me with' is wordy; 'they provide' matches plural. 'Take more concentration' is incorrect collocation; use 'concentrate more' (Incorrect use of adjectives/adverbs, ID 13). Suggestion: use plural nouns to match and correct verb forms and collocations.

Singular and plural issue

× However, for quick information like news article, I think it's much more convenient to read on screen.

However, for quick information like news articles, I think it's much more convenient to read on a screen.

'News article' should be plural 'news articles' (Singular and plural issue, ID 1). Also 'on screen' is acceptable but 'on a screen' or 'on-screen' is clearer. Suggestion: use plural and include article if needed.

Sentence structure errors

× I read carefully materials that provide long term values all require critical thinking.

I read carefully the materials that provide long-term value; they all require critical thinking.

The original lacks correct word order and punctuation. 'Read carefully materials' should be 'read carefully the materials' or 'carefully read materials' (Sentence structure errors, ID 26). 'Long term values' should be 'long-term value' (hyphenation and singular/plural). Suggestion: reorder to 'I carefully read the materials that provide long-term value; they require critical thinking.'

Incorrect use of pronouns

× For example, we have to read work to work for research study or caricature because mistake resume cannot reverse in contract for social media or entertainment contains which need to read quickly for relaxing.

For example, we have to read papers for research or serious work because mistakes cannot be reversed in contracts; social media or entertainment content, however, can be read quickly for relaxation.

This sentence contains many lexical and pronoun errors making it unclear. I focused on making it grammatically coherent: 'work to work for research study or caricature' is meaningless and was interpreted as 'papers for research or serious work.' 'Mistake resume cannot reverse in contract' corrected to 'mistakes cannot be reversed in contracts.' 'Contains which need to read quickly for relaxing' rephrased to 'social media or entertainment content... can be read quickly for relaxation.' The core issues involve incorrect pronoun/reference and sentence structure (IDs 12 and 26). Suggestion: separate ideas into two clauses and use clearer nouns and verb forms.

Incorrect use of verbs/word choice

× In my opinion, I lie much about detail reading because I am a science lover.

In my opinion, I like detailed reading a lot because I am a science lover.

'Lie much about' is incorrect usage; likely intended 'like a lot' (Incorrect use of verbs, treated as Present tense/verb form issue, ID 6/8). 'Detail reading' should be 'detailed reading' or 'reading in detail' (Incorrect use of adjectives/adverbs, ID 13). Suggestion: use 'I like detailed reading a lot' or 'I like reading in detail.'

Present participle/form and subject-verb agreement

× So I read science content as usual which require most critical taking to understand the given knowledge.

So I usually read science content, which requires critical thinking to understand the material.

'As usual' placement and 'require' should agree with singular 'content' -> 'requires' (Subject-verb agreement, ID 27). 'Most critical taking' is incorrect phrasing; correct collocation is 'critical thinking' (Incorrect use of adjectives/adverbs, ID 13). Suggestion: use 'requires critical thinking' and reposition 'usually' for natural flow.

Incorrect use of adverb/word choice

× If I read uncapitly, I would misunderstand important detail.

If I read carelessly, I would misunderstand important details.

'Uncapitly' is not an English word; likely meant 'carelessly' (Incorrect use of adjectives/adverbs, ID 13). 'Important detail' should be plural 'important details' (Singular and plural issue, ID 1). Also conditional 'would' is acceptable for hypothetical present. Suggestion: use 'carelessly' and pluralize 'details.'
