Are there tall buildings near your home?
Candidato
Uh, yes, of course Takata is a nice name on my home but not as many as I had back when I was studying in Bengaluru. But there are two three tall walks like the Embassy Hotel and the ocean building.
Examinador
Do you take photos of buildings?
Candidato
I doubt I take photos of buildings, but if they have very good lighting or they have very ambient and beautiful features then I guess yeah. But as much as I could recall, I don't think I take pictures of buildings as many as I take off.
Examinador
Is there a building that you would like to visit?
Candidato
I don't think, I don't think so that there are any building I'd like to visit. I think most of them would say Burj Khalifa, but I've already visited that one. I do want to visit the Brutal Arab, which has the helipad. So I guess, yeah, that is.
Examinador
Do you want to live in a tall building?
Candidato
Yes, I very much want to live in a tall building. Many of my friends have their flats at 21st floor, 15th floor which is amazing and I want to live in tall buildings because it has very nice pollution and also with beautiful views.
Are there tall buildings near your home?
Pontuação: 60.0Sugestão: Be more direct, accurate and concise. Start with a clear topic sentence (Yes/No + brief detail), correct place/name references, and avoid hesitation and unclear phrases. Use linking words to add a brief comparison (e.g., "but") and provide one or two specific examples with correct names and descriptions.
Exemplo: Yes, there are some tall buildings near my home, but not as many as when I lived in Bengaluru. For example, the Embassy Hotel and the Ocean Building are nearby; the hotel is mainly for business guests, while the Ocean Building is a modern residential tower.
Do you take photos of buildings?
Pontuação: 55.0Sugestão: Give a clearer, more confident response. Start with a direct statement, then explain when and why you would photograph buildings using linking words (e.g., "but", "when", "because"). Avoid vague or contradictory phrasing and use specific examples (types of lighting or architectural features).
Exemplo: Not usually, but I do take photos of buildings when the lighting is dramatic or the architecture is striking. For instance, I will photograph a church with stained-glass windows at sunset or a skyscraper with reflective glass at night.
Is there a building that you would like to visit?
Pontuação: 50.0Sugestão: Be concise and avoid repetition. Give a clear response about whether there is a building you want to visit; if you already visited famous ones, mention one you still want to see with a short reason. Use correct building names and precise descriptions to sound natural.
Exemplo: I don't really have many buildings left on my travel list because I've already visited the Burj Khalifa. However, I would like to visit the Brutalist-style tower with the rooftop helipad because I'm fascinated by its unusual design and panoramic views.
Do you want to live in a tall building?
Pontuação: 65.0Sugestão: Clarify reasons and correct collocations (e.g., not "nice pollution"). Start with a direct statement, then give two specific reasons using linking words like "because" and "for example". Mention concrete benefits (views, convenience, amenities) instead of vague phrases.
Exemplo: Yes, I would like to live in a tall building because it offers excellent views and less street noise. For example, my friends living on the 21st and 15th floors enjoy clear city views and better privacy, as well as convenient access to amenities like a gym and rooftop garden.
× Uh, yes, of course Takata is a nice name on my home but not as many as I had back when I was studying in Bengaluru.
✓ Uh, yes, of course Takata is a nice name on my home but not as many as I had back when I was studying in Bengaluru.
This sentence has awkward phrasing rather than a clear article error; however it likely intended to say 'Takata is a nice name on my home' which is unusual. Suggest rephrasing to 'Takata is a nice name on my house' or 'There is a nice building called Takata near my home.' Use of 'the' isn't required here; improve clarity by changing noun choice. This suggestion is outside the listed types but improves meaning.
× But there are two three tall walks like the Embassy Hotel and the ocean building.
✓ But there are two or three tall blocks like the Embassy Hotel and the Ocean Building.
The speaker attempted to express an approximate number but omitted 'or' and used 'walks' mistakenly. Use 'two or three' for approximation and 'blocks' or 'buildings' for structures. Capitalize proper name 'Ocean Building'.
× I doubt I take photos of buildings, but if they have very good lighting or they have very ambient and beautiful features then I guess yeah.
✓ I rarely take photos of buildings, but if they have very good lighting or very attractive features then I guess I would.
Use of 'doubt I take' is incorrect for habitual action; 'rarely' conveys frequency. 'Ambient' is misused; use 'attractive' or 'interesting'. Match the clause with a conditional result phrase 'I guess I would.' Maintain present simple for habits and modal for conditional preference.
× But as much as I could recall, I don't think I take pictures of buildings as many as I take off.
✓ But as far as I can recall, I don't think I take pictures of buildings as often as I take photos of other things.
'As much as I could recall' should be 'as far as I can recall' for memory reference. 'As many as I take off' is ungrammatical; use 'as often as I take photos of other things.' 'Often' expresses frequency; 'photos' is clearer than 'off.' Use present tense 'can' for current recollection.
× I don't think, I don't think so that there are any building I'd like to visit.
✓ I don't think there are any buildings I'd like to visit.
Redundant phrase 'I don't think, I don't think so that' should be simplified to 'I don't think'. 'Any building' should be plural 'any buildings' after 'are'. Remove unnecessary words for grammatical clarity.
× I think most of them would say Burj Khalifa, but I've already visited that one.
✓ I think most people would say the Burj Khalifa, but I've already visited it.
When referring to the famous tower, use the definite article 'the Burj Khalifa'. 'That one' is colloquial; 'it' is more natural here. Also 'most of them' unclear—'most people' fits context.
× I do want to visit the Brutal Arab, which has the helipad.
✓ I do want to visit the Brutal Arch, which has a helipad.
'Brutal Arab' seems to be a mispronunciation; likely 'Brutal Arch' or another building name. Use 'a helipad' unless referring to a specific known helipad. Ensure correct proper noun spelling; if name is 'Burj Al Arab' the correct form is 'the Burj Al Arab.'
× So I guess, yeah, that is.
✓ So I guess, yes, that's it.
'That is' is incomplete and awkward. 'That's it' or 'yes' completes the thought. Use contraction 'that's' to sound natural in speech.
× Many of my friends have their flats at 21st floor, 15th floor which is amazing and I want to live in tall buildings because it has very nice pollution and also with beautiful views.
✓ Many of my friends have their flats on the 21st and 15th floors, which is amazing, and I want to live in tall buildings because they have much less pollution and beautiful views.
Use preposition 'on' with floor numbers. Plural 'floors' for multiple levels. 'Which is' should agree with plural subject 'flats' so use 'which are'. 'It has very nice pollution' is incorrect and likely the opposite meaning; replace with 'they have much less pollution'. Ensure subject-verb agreement: 'buildings... they have'. Use comparative 'much less' for pollution reduction.
