Part 1

Examiner

Do you like reading?

Candidate

As someone who is autistic, I really like the idea of reading. Reading is one of my habits way back when I was a kid until now I grow up. I still love the idea of finding new books, journaling in different kinds of genre like fiction, romance and low books. I really like the idea of reading.

Examiner

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

Candidate

Personally I like the idea of reading by paper because I can smell the sense of the old paper and it's feel feeling better on my eyes because I don't feel headache and also I really like the idea of holding books because it relieve me, I can release stress and I can escape from the reality.

Examiner

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

Candidate

Reading carefully it's much help me because I can analyze and understand the text inside of that book and also it can gain more knowledge for me when I don't read carefully. I feel like I was so dumb to understand it because I didn't get the meaning of that book.

Examiner

Do you prefer scanning or detailed reading?

Candidate

I do like the idea of detailed reading as someone who is overthinking. I really like the idea of being detailed information so that I can cope off the information and I can spread the knowledge that I have and also I can input it to my vocabulary to have a new words and then.

Part 1

Do you like reading?

Score: 60.0

Suggestion: Make the answer more concise and structured: state a clear topic sentence, give 1–2 specific supporting details (types of books, how often you read), and avoid repetition. Use correct grammar and simple past/present chronology. Use linking words like 'since' or 'also' to connect ideas.

Example: Yes, I enjoy reading a lot. I have been an avid reader since childhood and I read almost every day. I especially enjoy fiction and romance because they help me relax and explore different characters. Also, I keep a reading journal to note interesting ideas and new vocabulary.

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

Score: 70.0

Suggestion: Focus the answer: give a clear preference, then 2 specific reasons with linking words ('because', 'also'). Correct grammar (e.g., 'reading on paper', 'it feels', 'relieves me') and avoid vague phrases. Keep to 3–4 sentences max.

Example: I prefer reading on paper because it feels more comfortable on my eyes and I don't get headaches. Also, I enjoy the smell and texture of books, which helps me relax and escape from everyday stress. For these reasons I usually choose print books over screens.

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

Score: 58.0

Suggestion: Provide a clear distinction: state when careful reading is necessary and when skimming is fine. Use linking words ('however', 'for example') and give specific examples (study materials vs. light fiction). Fix grammar and avoid self-deprecating language; instead explain consequences of not reading carefully.

Example: I need to read carefully when I study or when the text contains complex information, such as academic articles or instruction manuals, because I must understand details and retain facts. However, I don't read as carefully when reading light fiction or entertaining articles, since I just want to enjoy the story and get the main idea.

Do you prefer scanning or detailed reading?

Score: 62.0

Suggestion: Start with a direct statement of preference, then give 2 concise, specific reasons using linking words like 'because' and 'so'. Correct phrasing ('detailed reading', 'expand my vocabulary') and avoid redundant or unclear phrases. Limit to 3–4 sentences.

Example: I prefer detailed reading because I like to fully understand ideas and remember important points. For example, when I read nonfiction I take notes and look up new words, which helps expand my vocabulary. Detailed reading also allows me to share accurate information with others.

Grammar

12:Incorrect use of pronouns

× As someone who is autistic, I really like the idea of reading.

As someone who is autistic, I really like reading.

The phrase 'like the idea of reading' is awkward; 'like reading' is more natural. This is not a pronoun error per se but relates to correct use of verb phrase after 'like'. Use the gerund 'reading' directly after 'like'.

27:Subject-verb agreement errors

× Reading is one of my habits way back when I was a kid until now I grow up.

Reading has been one of my habits since I was a kid and still is as I have grown up.

Original sentence has tense and subject-verb agreement problems. Use present perfect 'has been' to describe a habit continuing from past to present, and 'is' agrees with the subject 'reading'. Also replace 'way back when' with 'since' and correct 'grow up' to 'have grown up' to show continuing state.

13:Incorrect use of adjectives or adverbs

× I still love the idea of finding new books, journaling in different kinds of genre like fiction, romance and low books.

I still enjoy finding new books and journaling in different genres like fiction, romance, and lowbrow books.

Use the noun 'genres' (plural) and 'lowbrow' as the correct adjective for a type of book; 'love the idea of finding' is wordy so 'enjoy finding' is clearer. Also list items with commas and correct form 'low books' to 'lowbrow books'.

12:Incorrect use of pronouns

× Personally I like the idea of reading by paper because I can smell the sense of the old paper and it's feel feeling better on my eyes because I don't feel headache and also I really like the idea of holding books because it relieve me, I can release stress and I can escape from the reality.

Personally, I prefer reading on paper because I can smell old paper and it feels better on my eyes so I don't get a headache. I also like holding books because they relieve me: I can relieve stress and escape from reality.

Multiple issues: pronouns and verb forms. Use 'prefer reading on paper' not 'reading by paper'. 'It's feel feeling' is incorrect; use 'it feels'. 'I don't feel headache' should be 'I don't get a headache'. 'It relieve me' should be 'they relieve me' to agree with plural 'books' and use correct verb 'relieve'. Break into two sentences for clarity.

6:Present tense issue

× Reading carefully it's much help me because I can analyze and understand the text inside of that book and also it can gain more knowledge for me when I don't read carefully.

Reading carefully helps me a lot because I can analyze and understand the text in a book; if I do not read carefully, I gain less knowledge.

Use present simple 'helps' for habitual actions. 'It's much help me' is incorrect; 'helps me a lot' is natural. 'Inside of that book' should be 'in a book'. Contrast clause should use 'if I do not read carefully' and express result clearly.

5:Past tense issue

× I feel like I was so dumb to understand it because I didn't get the meaning of that book.

I feel like I was unable to understand it because I didn't get the meaning of the book.

Avoid using 'dumb' to describe inability; 'was unable to understand' is clearer. Use past tense 'didn't get' correctly; replace 'that book' with 'the book' for natural reference.

12:Incorrect use of pronouns

× I do like the idea of detailed reading as someone who is overthinking.

I do like detailed reading because I tend to overthink.

'Like the idea of detailed reading' is wordy; 'like detailed reading' is natural. 'As someone who is overthinking' is grammatically odd; use 'because I tend to overthink' to explain reason.

8:Verb + -ing form

× I really like the idea of being detailed information so that I can cope off the information and I can spread the knowledge that I have and also I can input it to my vocabulary to have a new words and then.

I like getting detailed information so that I can process the information, share the knowledge I have, and add new words to my vocabulary.

Use noun phrases 'detailed information' and verbs 'process' or 'cope with' (not 'cope off'). Replace 'input it to my vocabulary' with 'add new words to my vocabulary'. Ensure parallel structure in the list and correct 'a new words' to 'new words'.
