Examiner
Do you make a list when you shop?
Candidate
Yes, I am the type of person who always makes a list before I go shopping because I tend to forget what I need to buy if I don't write it down. This way I can stay organized and avoid having to return to the store later to get the items I missed. Making a list helps me save time and ensures that I don't forget anything important.
Examiner
Do you make a list for your work? Does it work?
Candidate
Yes, I usually make a list for my assignments to organize my task and the priorities. However, it doesn't always work because sometimes I find it difficult to stick to the plan. This is a personal challenge, but I'm trying to improve by setting reminders and breaking tasks into smaller steps.
Examiner
Why don't some people like making lists?
Candidate
Like making lists. Some people don't like making lists because they feel it restricts them is it restricts their freedom and forces them to follow St. schedules. They prefer to be spontaneous, flexible, and going with the flow rather than being tied down by rules or plans. For example, they might enjoy deciding what to do in the moment instead of sticking to a fixed plan.
Examiner
Do you prefer to make a list on paper or your phone?
Candidate
I prefer making list on paper because I find it helps me concentrate better. When I use my phone I tend to get distracted by browsing social media, so writing things down on paper feels more effective and organised for me. Additionally, having a physical list makes it easy to keep track on of my task throughout the day.

× I usually make a list for my assignments to organize my task and the priorities.
✓ I usually make a list for my assignments to organize my tasks and the priorities.
The word 'task' should be plural 'tasks' because it refers to multiple assignments, so the noun must agree in number with the context.

✓ Additionally, having a physical list makes it easy to keep track of my tasks throughout the day.

× Additionally, having a physical list makes it easy to keep track on of my task throughout the day.
✓ Additionally, having a physical list makes it easy to keep track of my tasks throughout the day.
The phrase 'keep track on of' is incorrect; the correct preposition is 'of' after 'keep track'. The preposition 'on' should be removed.
