Examiner
Do you like reading?
Candidate
Yes, I enjoy reading specially inspirational and motivational books in my free time umm because they help me to focus and develop good habits. For example, recently I read Atomic Habits by James Clear. That book gives a practical steps by steps advice for creating small routings and. To last thing, change. Umm, I think that book is very good for someone who like to, uh, maintain.
Examiner
Do you prefer to read on paper or on a screen?
Candidate
I prefer both formats. Uh, it's depending on what I'm reading. For novels or storybook I usually choose a paper because the tactile feel and lack of screen glut help me focus. But when I read a article, document, research or something information, I use a screen since it's a more convenient and easy to search and share. So I go with a screen.
Examiner
When do you need to read carefully, and when not?
Candidate
I tend to be a careless in everyday reading but when I'm preparing for exam I read very carefully because I need to remember details and avoid mistakes. Uh for casual things like answers from check GTP, I usually just scheme them since they are low stakes and I'm not relying on the on them for great so I read those things. Things without care.
Examiner
Do you prefer scanning or detailed reading?
Candidate
I prefer scanning, uh, because it's very convenient for me. I like to, uh, find answers quickly. I don't like to read, uh, very complicated things, uh, and it's very boring for me. And it's take so many times, but I think from reading we can find a good information and we can take a good knowledge about. The things we find out, but for me, I prefer scanning because it's very convenient and easy to share for someone.
Do you like reading?
Score: 68.0Suggestion: Improve fluency and pronunciation, correct grammar and reduce hesitations. Make the response more concise with a clear topic sentence, one or two specific supporting details, and no filler words. Correct verb/noun forms (e.g., 'steps-by-step advice', 'routines', 'lasting change', 'who likes to maintain').
Example: Yes, I enjoy reading, especially inspirational and motivational books because they help me focus and build good habits. For example, I recently read Atomic Habits by James Clear, which gives practical step-by-step advice on creating small routines that lead to lasting change.
Do you prefer to read on paper or on a screen?
Score: 75.0Suggestion: Organize the answer with a clear topic sentence and two contrasting reasons using linking words. Fix vocabulary and grammar: 'it depends', 'a novel or storybook', 'paper', 'screen glare', 'an article or research paper', 'convenient and easy to search'. Avoid repetition and hesitations.
Example: I prefer both formats depending on the material. For novels or storybooks I choose paper because the tactile feel and lack of screen glare help me concentrate. However, for articles, documents or research I use a screen because it is more convenient and makes searching and sharing much easier.
When do you need to read carefully, and when not?
Score: 60.0Suggestion: Clarify and correct grammar, remove filler words, and provide specific examples. Use linking words to contrast situations (e.g., 'however', 'on the other hand'). Correct vocabulary: 'careless', 'prepare for exams', 'I skim them', 'low-stakes'. Keep it concise and coherent.
Example: I usually skim everyday materials because they are low-stakes, but I read carefully when preparing for exams since I need to remember details and avoid mistakes. For instance, I skim emails or casual web answers, but I study textbooks and past papers in depth before a test.
Do you prefer scanning or detailed reading?
Score: 62.0Suggestion: Be concise and structured: state preference, give two clear reasons with linking words, and include a brief acknowledgment of the value of detailed reading. Correct grammar and vocabulary: 'it takes a long time', 'we can gain useful information', 'easy to share with others'. Remove repetitions and filler sounds.
Example: I prefer scanning because it lets me find answers quickly and saves time. However, I also acknowledge that detailed reading is important when the content is complex, as it helps me gain deeper understanding and accurate knowledge.
× Yes, I enjoy reading specially inspirational and motivational books in my free time umm because they help me to focus and develop good habits.
✓ Yes, I enjoy reading, especially inspirational and motivational books in my free time because they help me focus and develop good habits.
Used 'specially' incorrectly; 'especially' is correct to mean 'particularly'. Remove redundant 'to' before 'focus' and add comma for clarity. Suggestion: use 'especially' for emphasis and avoid unnecessary filler words.
× For example, recently I read Atomic Habits by James Clear.
✓ For example, recently I read Atomic Habits by James Clear.
This sentence is grammatically acceptable; tense 'read' (past) matches 'recently'. No change needed. (Included for completeness.)
× That book gives a practical steps by steps advice for creating small routings and.
✓ That book gives practical step-by-step advice for creating small routines and...
Incorrect article 'a' before plural 'steps' and wrong word forms. Use 'practical step-by-step advice' (uncountable 'advice', hyphenated adjective) and 'routines' instead of 'routings'. Suggestion: use singular 'step-by-step' as adjective and 'advice' without 'a'.
× To last thing, change.
✓ The last thing is change.
Original lacks proper structure and verb. Use 'The last thing is change' or 'Finally, it encourages change.' Suggestion: include subject and verb to form complete sentence.
× Umm, I think that book is very good for someone who like to, uh, maintain.
✓ Umm, I think that book is very good for someone who wants to maintain good habits.
Subject-verb agreement and missing object: 'someone who like' should be 'someone who wants' and include object 'good habits' to complete meaning. Suggestion: use appropriate verb 'wants' and state what to maintain.
× I prefer both formats. Uh, it's depending on what I'm reading.
✓ I prefer both formats. Uh, it depends on what I'm reading.
'It's depending' is incorrect progressive form; use simple present 'it depends' for general truths. Suggestion: use simple present for habitual situations.
× For novels or storybook I usually choose a paper because the tactile feel and lack of screen glut help me focus.
✓ For novels or storybooks I usually choose paper because the tactile feel and lack of screen glare help me focus.
'a paper' is incorrect; use 'paper' or 'a paperback' / 'a physical book'. 'storybook' plural form 'storybooks' or 'a storybook'. 'screen glut' is incorrect word; should be 'screen glare'. Suggestion: use 'paper' or 'physical books' and correct noun choice.
× But when I read a article, document, research or something information, I use a screen since it's a more convenient and easy to search and share.
✓ But when I read an article, a document, research, or some information, I use a screen since it's more convenient and easy to search and share.
Use 'an article' before vowel sound; parallel articles for list optional but clarity helps: 'an article, a document'. 'something information' is wrong; use 'some information'. Remove extra 'a' before 'more convenient'. Suggestion: ensure correct articles and collocations.
× So I go with a screen.
✓ So I go with a screen.
Sentence is acceptable; 'go with' is informal but grammatically fine in context. (Included for completeness.)
× I tend to be a careless in everyday reading but when I'm preparing for exam I read very carefully because I need to remember details and avoid mistakes.
✓ I tend to be careless in everyday reading but when I'm preparing for an exam I read very carefully because I need to remember details and avoid mistakes.
'a careless' incorrect; 'careless' is adjective so omit 'a'. Add article 'an' before 'exam'. Suggestion: remove unnecessary articles before adjectives and use 'an exam'.
× Uh for casual things like answers from check GTP, I usually just scheme them since they are low stakes and I'm not relying on the on them for great so I read those things.
✓ Uh, for casual things like answers from ChatGPT, I usually just skim them since they are low stakes and I'm not relying on them, so I don't read those things carefully.
Multiple errors: 'check GTP' should be 'ChatGPT'; 'scheme' wrong verb, should be 'skim'; extra 'the on' wrong; 'for great' unclear — revised to 'carefully'. Suggestion: use correct tech name, correct verbs, and simplify clause structure.
× I prefer scanning, uh, because it's very convenient for me.
✓ I prefer scanning because it's very convenient for me.
Remove filler 'uh'. Sentence otherwise correct. Suggestion: avoid fillers in spoken/written answers.
× I like to, uh, find answers quickly.
✓ I like to find answers quickly.
Remove filler 'uh'. Sentence correct. (Included for completeness.)
× I don't like to read, uh, very complicated things, uh, and it's very boring for me.
✓ I don't like to read very complicated texts because they are boring for me.
Avoid repetition of 'uh' and use plural 'texts' or 'material' rather than 'things'; 'it's very boring for me' better as 'they are boring to me'. Suggestion: use precise nouns and correct pronoun agreement.
× And it's take so many times, but I think from reading we can find a good information and we can take a good knowledge about.
✓ It takes a lot of time, but I think from reading we can find good information and gain useful knowledge.
'it's take' wrong verb form; use 'it takes'. 'so many times' should be 'a lot of time'. 'a good information' incorrect article; 'information' uncountable. 'take a good knowledge about' wrong collocation; use 'gain useful knowledge'. Suggestion: correct verb forms and use proper collocations for uncountable nouns.
× The things we find out, but for me, I prefer scanning because it's very convenient and easy to share for someone.
✓ The things we find out. But for me, I prefer scanning because it's very convenient and easy to share with someone.
Sentence fragments and wrong preposition 'to share for someone' should be 'share with someone'. Split into two sentences for clarity. Suggestion: use 'share with' for recipients and avoid sentence fragments.
