Examiner

What is your favourite food?

Candidate

My favourite food is Tole Paturi. I like it because of this spicy tangy curry known as chole which are paired with paturas that are fried and soft enough. And I just eat them with pickles and curd yogurt to drink.

Examiner

What kind of food did you like when you were young?

Candidate

When I was young, I loved to have choli paturi because of the spicy and tangy flavour of chole which are served with crispy paduras that make it more satisfying and additionally they are served with curd yogurt drink that I love the most. But now I like Daran Rice.

Examiner

Do you eat different foods at different times of the year?

Candidate

Absolutely. In winters we eat a spinach based curry that is known as salt and in contrast in summers we eat very light food that is dal rice and sometimes some cereal based food and but in rainy season we prefer sweet malpuas with kirk.

Examiner

Has your favourite food changed since you were a child?

When I was a child, I loved to have choli padores but now I like to have sag, spinach based curry and sometimes malpua with rice pudding because these are more comforting and nutrition for my life as I got to know about their benefits. So yeah I just like sag and their malpuas

Part 1

What is your favourite food?

Score: 62.0

Suggestion: Be more concise and correct vocabulary, give a clear topic sentence then one or two specific supporting details. Fix word choices (e.g., ‘paturi’/‘paturas’, ‘chole’ singular/plural) and grammar (article use, verb forms). Use one linking word for coherence and avoid unnecessary repetition.

Example: My favourite food is Tole Paturi. I enjoy it because it combines spicy, tangy chole (chickpea curry) with soft, lightly fried paturi. I usually eat it with pickles and a glass of curd (yogurt), which balances the spice.

What kind of food did you like when you were young?

Score: 50.0

Suggestion: Start with a direct topic sentence and avoid long, repetitive descriptions. Correct names consistently and use linking words to contrast past and present (e.g., ‘however’). Provide one clear reason for the change to sound more coherent.

Example: When I was young, I loved chole paturi because of the spicy, tangy flavour and crispy paturi that made it very satisfying. However, now I prefer Daran rice because it is lighter and easier to digest.

Do you eat different foods at different times of the year?

Score: 58.0

Suggestion: Give a clear topic sentence, then list seasonal examples with brief reasons using linking words (e.g., ‘in winter…because…; in summer…because…’). Correct food names and awkward phrases (‘salt’, ‘kirk’) and avoid filler words.

Example: Yes, I eat different foods by season. In winter we prefer a spinach-based curry (sāg) because it is warming; in summer we eat light dishes like dal and rice to stay cool; and in the rainy season we enjoy sweet malpuas as a special treat.

Has your favourite food changed since you were a child?

Score: 60.0

Suggestion: Answer directly with a clear statement about change, then give one or two specific reasons using linking words (‘because’, ‘so’). Correct vocabulary and grammar (e.g., ‘sāg’ or ‘sag’, ‘nutritious’), and avoid repeating phrases at the end.

Example: Yes, my favourite food has changed. As a child I loved chole paturi, but now I prefer sāg (spinach curry) and occasionally malpua with rice pudding because they are more comforting and nutritious.

Grammar

Incorrect use of plural

× My favourite food is Tole Paturi. I like it because of this spicy tangy curry known as chole which are paired with paturas that are fried and soft enough.

✓ My favourite food is Tole Paturi. I like it because of this spicy, tangy curry known as chole which is paired with paturi that is fried and soft enough.

The noun 'chole' (a singular dish) should take a singular verb: 'is paired' rather than 'are paired' (Grammar Problem Type ID 1 and 27: singular/plural and subject-verb agreement). Also 'paturas' is an incorrect pluralization; keep the original form 'paturi' or use 'paturi pieces' if plural is intended. Add a comma between 'spicy' and 'tangy' for correct adjective coordination.

Incorrect use of pronouns

× And I just eat them with pickles and curd yogurt to drink.

✓ And I just eat it with pickles and drink curd yogurt.

Pronoun 'them' is unclear because the antecedent was singular 'Tole Paturi'; use 'it' (singular) to agree. The phrase 'curd yogurt to drink' is awkward; rephrase to 'drink curd yogurt' for correct verb use and clearer meaning (Grammar Problem Type ID 12 and 26).

Past tense issue

× When I was young, I loved to have choli paturi because of the spicy and tangy flavour of chole which are served with crispy paduras that make it more satisfying and additionally they are served with curd yogurt drink that I love the most.

✓ When I was young, I loved to have choli paturi because of the spicy and tangy flavour of chole which was served with crispy paturi that made it more satisfying, and additionally it was served with curd yogurt, which I loved the most.

Sentence describes past habits, so verbs should be in past tense: 'are served' -> 'was served'/'were served' and 'make' -> 'made'. Also ensure noun forms: 'paduras' -> 'paturi' and agreement between singular/plural elements. Use a relative clause 'which I loved the most' for clarity (Grammar Problem Type ID 5 and 27).

Incorrect use of pronouns

× But now I like Daran Rice.

✓ But now I like Daran rice.

Capitalization and proper noun formatting: 'rice' should be lowercase unless part of a proper name. No pronoun error here but keep consistent capitalization (Grammar Problem Type ID 12 noted for clarity).

Incorrect use of prepositions

× In winters we eat a spinach based curry that is known as salt and in contrast in summers we eat very light food that is dal rice and sometimes some cereal based food and but in rainy season we prefer sweet malpuas with kirk.

✓ In winter we eat a spinach-based curry that is known as saag, and in contrast, in summer we eat very light food such as dal and rice, and sometimes cereal-based dishes; in the rainy season we prefer sweet malpuas with kheer.

Use 'in winter' not 'in winters' for general seasonal habits. Hyphenate compound adjectives: 'spinach-based'. 'Salt' seems incorrect; likely 'saag'. Use singular 'summer' and 'rainy season' for general statements. Replace 'dal rice' with 'dal and rice' and 'kirk' with 'kheer'. Improve conjunction usage and punctuation for readability (Grammar Problem Type ID 11, 16, 18, 26).

Past tense issue

× When I was a child, I loved to have choli padores but now I like to have sag, spinach based curry and sometimes malpua with rice pudding because these are more comforting and nutrition for my life as I got to know about their benefits.

✓ When I was a child, I loved to have choli paturi, but now I like to have saag (spinach-based curry) and sometimes malpua with rice pudding because these are more comforting and nutritious for me since I learned about their benefits.

Adjust tense and forms: keep past 'loved' and contrast with present 'now I like'. Correct nouns: 'padores' -> 'paturi', 'sag' -> 'saag'. Use compound adjective 'spinach-based'. Replace 'nutrition for my life' with 'nutritious for me' and change 'as I got to know' to 'since I learned' for natural English (Grammar Problem Type ID 5, 6, 13, 11).

Incorrect use of pronouns

× So yeah I just like sag and their malpuas

✓ So yeah, I just like saag and its malpuas.

Use singular possessive 'its' to refer to the dish 'saag' rather than 'their' which implies plural. Also standardize spelling 'saag' and include a comma after 'So yeah' for clearer spoken style (Grammar Problem Type ID 12).
