Examiner
Do you prefer to be a driver or a passenger?

Of course, a passenger, I think being a driver, is too tired and exhausted, especially during a long trip. You may need to spend three to five hours and you have to concentrate at the whole process. You cannot sleep and because it may create a dangerous problem.

Did you enjoy traveling by car when you were a kid?
Score: 55.0Suggestion: Be more concise and correct grammar. Start with a clear topic sentence, then give one or two specific supporting details with linking words. Avoid repetition and correct tense agreement and word choice (e.g., “I could” not “I can” when talking about the past).
Example: Yes, I did. I loved car trips as a child because I was fascinated by geography. For example, I would look up the landforms we passed on my phone and read short explanations about how they were formed, which made the journeys feel like mini field trips.
What types of cars do you like?
Score: 60.0Suggestion: Use the correct term (“electric cars”), simplify sentence structure, and give one clear reason with a linking word. Use more precise vocabulary (e.g., “reduce emissions” rather than “reduce the carbon dioxide proportions”).
Example: I prefer electric cars because they produce far fewer emissions than petrol cars. For instance, driving an electric vehicle can significantly reduce CO2 output, which helps combat global warming.
Do you prefer to be a driver or a passenger?
Score: 65.0Suggestion: Give a brief topic sentence, then support with one specific reason and a short example. Fix grammatical issues and avoid overlong clauses—use linking words like “because” or “so”.
Example: I prefer to be a passenger because driving for long periods is tiring and requires constant concentration. For example, on a four-hour trip I can relax or nap as a passenger, while the driver must stay alert the whole time.
What do you usually do when there is a traffic jam?
Score: 40.0Suggestion: Make a clear and coherent answer: state what you do first, then give a reason. Avoid unclear phrases and repetition. Practice simple sentences and use linking words like “so” or “because.”
Example: When there is a traffic jam, I usually listen to music or a podcast to stay calm because I hate waiting and I don’t want to get stressed. If I’m in a hurry, I might call the person I’m meeting to explain the delay.
Do you think car colours are important?
Score: 50.0Suggestion: Answer directly and give a clear reason with correct vocabulary. Replace vague words like “scam” with accurate terms (e.g., “accidents or malfunctions”). Use linking words to connect ideas.
Example: Not really; I think safety features and reliability matter more than colour. For example, good brakes and airbags are far more important because they reduce the risk of accidents.
Will you buy an expensive car in the future?
Score: 50.0Suggestion: Give a concise answer and one or two specific reasons. Correct grammar (e.g., “I can’t afford” not “I cannot afford the expensive car because to having a car”). Mention concrete costs or lifestyle reasons if possible.
Example: Probably not. I don’t plan to drive much in the future and expensive cars are costly to buy and maintain. For example, insurance, regular cleaning and maintenance would be extra expenses I’d rather avoid.
× I was interested in geography so I quite enjoy traveling by car because during the process I can I can see the landscape we passed and I would search some think in the Internet and I would find some theory behind the landscape so I would like.
✓ I was interested in geography, so I quite enjoyed traveling by car because during the journey I could see the landscapes we passed, and I would search for things on the Internet and find theories behind the landscapes, so I liked it.
Mixed tense errors and inappropriate verb forms: the student starts with past 'was interested' so the rest of the description should use past tense ('enjoyed', 'could', 'liked'). Also 'during the process' is awkward; 'during the journey' is better. Repeated 'I can I can' is redundant and wrong tense. Use 'search for things on the Internet' not 'search some think in the Internet'. Use plural 'landscapes' and 'find theories' for clarity. Suggestion: keep consistent past tense when referring to childhood experiences and use correct verb patterns (search for + object).
× I like electronic car because since now global warming is very serious and it creates many problem, electronic car could reduce the carbon dioxide proportions released so that our earth could be less hot.
✓ I like electric cars because global warming is very serious and it causes many problems; electric cars can reduce the amount of carbon dioxide released so that the Earth will warm less.
Word choice and form errors: use 'electric car(s)' not 'electronic car', 'problem' should be plural 'problems', and 'proportions' is wrong here — use 'amount' or 'volume' of carbon dioxide. Modal and tense: use 'can' for ability, not 'could' when stating a general fact. 'Since now' is awkward and unnecessary. Use 'Earth' capitalized in normal writing; here use 'the Earth'. Suggestion: use correct nouns and modal verbs for factual statements and pluralize where needed.
× Of course, a passenger, I think being a driver, is too tired and exhausted, especially during a long trip. You may need to spend three to five hours and you have to concentrate at the whole process. You cannot sleep and because it may create a dangerous problem.
✓ Of course, a passenger. I think being a driver is too tiring and exhausting, especially on a long trip. You may need to drive for three to five hours and you have to concentrate the whole time. You cannot sleep because it may create a dangerous situation.
Incorrect modal and preposition use: 'spend three to five hours' is possible but 'drive for three to five hours' is clearer. 'Concentrate at the whole process' is incorrect — use 'concentrate the whole time' or 'throughout the trip'. 'May' is fine but the sentence 'You cannot sleep and because it may create a dangerous problem' has a conjunction error and awkward noun choice; use 'situation'. Suggestion: simplify clauses, use correct prepositions ('for', 'on') and appropriate nouns ('situation').
× Recalling my memory, I am not feeling good because I hate waiting and if I was too rushed and and I get scheduled it may ruin my scheduled I may not be.
✓ Thinking back, I don't feel good about it because I hate waiting. If I am too rushed or my schedule is disrupted, it may ruin my plans.
Mixed tenses and broken sentence structure: 'Recalling my memory' is awkward — use 'Thinking back' or 'I remember'. The sentence mixes present and past incorrectly ('I am not feeling good', 'if I was too rushed', 'I get scheduled'). 'Get scheduled' is unclear; likely meant 'my schedule is disrupted'. The ending 'I may not be' is incomplete. Suggestion: separate into two clear sentences and maintain consistent present tense when describing general feelings. Use clear nouns ('schedule', 'plans').
× No, I think the most critical thing is the car equipment. If your car equipment is good in is high in quality, it may avoid many dangerous scam.
✓ No, I think the most important thing is the car's equipment. If your car's equipment is good and high in quality, it can prevent many dangerous incidents.
Word choice and possessive form: use 'car's equipment' or 'vehicle equipment' rather than 'the car equipment'. 'Most critical' is acceptable but 'most important' is more natural. 'Good in is high in quality' is ungrammatical — use 'good and high in quality' or simply 'of high quality'. 'Dangerous scam' is wrong contextually; use 'dangerous incidents' or 'accidents'. Modal: use 'can' for general capability. Suggestion: use possessive forms and correct collocations ('of high quality', 'prevent incidents').
× No, I don't want to be a driver in the future so I may not buy and I cannot afford the expensive car because to having a car you need to wash it and clean it daily so.
✓ No, I don't want to be a driver in the future, so I probably won't buy an expensive car and I cannot afford one. Also, owning a car requires washing and cleaning it regularly.
Tense and verb form problems: 'may not buy and I cannot afford the expensive car' is clumsy. Use 'probably won't buy' for future intention and 'cannot afford one' for clarity. 'To having a car' is incorrect — use 'owning a car' or 'if you own a car'. 'Daily so' is redundant; 'regularly' or 'every day' is sufficient. Suggestion: use correct future expressions ('will/ won't/ probably will'), correct gerund 'owning', and concise phrasing.
