Part 1

Examiner

Do you like reading?

Candidate

I prefer watching movie instead of reading but if I going to read I will choose that kind of books which is related to stories non fiction stories which are dramatic, romantic and comedic. So it depends on my time and the place.

Examiner

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

Candidate

I prefer to read in paper rather than using the screen to read. So the screen affect an influence on my eyes and next I will feel I will have a headache. So I prefer the paper and I love to hold the book itself.

Examiner

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

Candidate

I need to read carefully if I have an exam about that specific material, about that specific topic or the contacts. So I really need to be careful about this specific information and details and I want if that's really not important and there is no exam about that content or that.

Examiner

Do you prefer scanning or detailed reading?

Candidate

I prefer detailed reading. Why? Because I don't feel there is any benefits from only guests skimming or scanning. So when I read, I read with details to have a rich information and to acknowledge my mind with many.

Part 1

Do you like reading?

Score: 55.0

Suggestion: Improve grammatical accuracy and clarity. Begin with a clear topic sentence that directly answers the question, then give one or two specific supporting details. Correct verb forms (e.g., "I'm going to read" or "I read") and word choice ("non-fiction" and "fiction") and avoid redundancy. Use a linking word to connect ideas.

Example: I prefer watching films to reading, but when I do read I usually choose story-driven books. For example, I enjoy romantic or comedic novels because they are entertaining, and I tend to read them when I have free time in the evenings.

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

Score: 70.0

Suggestion: Make the answer more concise and correct grammar and collocations. Start with a clear preference sentence, then give one specific reason and an example. Use linking words (e.g., "because" or "so") correctly and avoid repeating the same idea.

Example: I prefer reading on paper because screens strain my eyes and often give me headaches. For instance, if I read on my phone for more than half an hour I start to feel uncomfortable, so I enjoy holding a physical book instead.

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

Score: 60.0

Suggestion: Provide a direct topic sentence and organize the reasons clearly. Fix vocabulary mistakes (e.g., "contacts" → "contents") and avoid repetition. Use linking words like "if" and "but" to contrast situations, and give a specific example of when careful reading is necessary and when it is not.

Example: I need to read carefully when I'm studying for an exam or when the text contains important details. For example, when preparing for a history test I read the chapters slowly to remember dates and names, but I skim light articles or emails if they are not important.

Do you prefer scanning or detailed reading?

Score: 58.0

Suggestion: Make the response more fluent and natural. Start with a clear topic sentence stating your preference, then explain the reason using correct expressions (e.g., "I don't see any benefit in just skimming"). Provide one specific example of how detailed reading helps you, and avoid vague phrases like "acknowledge my mind."

Example: I prefer detailed reading because it helps me understand the information fully. For instance, when I study technical articles I read every paragraph carefully to grasp the concepts, rather than skimming, which would leave gaps in my understanding.

Grammar

Verb in the -ing form

× I prefer watching movie instead of reading but if I going to read I will choose that kind of books which is related to stories non fiction stories which are dramatic, romantic and comedic.

I prefer watching movies instead of reading, but if I am going to read I will choose books that are related to stories, non-fiction stories that are dramatic, romantic, and comedic.

Errors: 'movie' should be plural 'movies' to match 'watching' and general preference (singular/plural issue, use ID 1 as related). 'if I going to read' lacks auxiliary 'am' before the present participle; correct form is 'if I am going to read' (present continuous with first person; use ID 10). 'that kind of books which is related' has mismatch: 'that kind of' + plural 'books' requires 'that are' not 'which is' (subject-verb agreement and relative clause; use ID 27 and 9). Punctuation and linking words are improved. Suggestion: use plural nouns for general preferences, include correct auxiliary verbs with -ing forms, and use 'that/which' with matching verb forms for plural subjects.

Incorrect use of prepositions

× I prefer to read in paper rather than using the screen to read.

I prefer to read on paper rather than using a screen.

Use of preposition: we say 'on paper' not 'in paper' (ID 11). Also 'the screen' is overly specific; 'a screen' or 'on a screen' is better for general preference. Suggestion: use common prepositional collocations like 'on paper' and 'on a screen'.

Incorrect use of adjectives or adverbs

× So the screen affect an influence on my eyes and next I will feel I will have a headache.

The screen affects my eyes and then I feel like I will get a headache.

Errors: 'affect an influence' is redundant and awkward; use 'affects my eyes' with correct third person singular verb 'affects' (ID 2). 'next I will feel I will have a headache' is repetitive and unidiomatic; use 'then I feel like I will get a headache' or 'then I get a headache' (tense and adverb placement, IDs 6 and 20). Suggestion: use concise verbs, ensure subject-verb agreement for third person singular, and place adverbs like 'then' appropriately.

Incorrect use of pronouns

× So I prefer the paper and I love to hold the book itself.

So I prefer paper and I love to hold the book itself.

Article/pronoun and article use: 'the paper' is unnecessary when speaking generally; use 'paper' or 'a paper' (ID 12 and 22). 'the book itself' is acceptable but 'a book' or 'books' may be more natural depending on meaning. Suggestion: drop unnecessary definite articles when speaking about things in general.

Verb in the -ing form

× I need to read carefully if I have an exam about that specific material, about that specific topic or the contacts.

I need to read carefully if I have an exam on that specific material, on that specific topic, or on the content.

Preposition: use 'exam on' rather than 'exam about' for common collocation (ID 11). 'the contacts' is likely a wrong word choice; 'content' fits context (vocabulary error falling under word choice/incorrect use, ID 13). Suggestion: use 'exam on' and choose correct nouns like 'content'.

Sentence structure errors

× So I really need to be careful about this specific information and details and I want if that's really not important and there is no exam about that content or that.

So I really need to be careful about specific information and details, but if that's not important and there is no exam on that content, I do not need to be so careful.

Sentence is fragmented and unclear: 'I want if' is ungrammatical; likely intended contrast 'but if'. Also 'there is no exam about that content or that' is repetitive and awkward. Problems include conjunction misuse (ID 16), sentence structure issues (ID 26), and preposition 'about' should be 'on' (ID 11). Suggestion: use clear conjunctions like 'but if', avoid repetition, and place phrases to show contrast.

Incorrect use of pronouns

× I prefer detailed reading.

I prefer detailed reading.

Sentence is acceptable as is; no grammatical correction needed. Note: 'detailed reading' is a proper noun phrase meaning reading in detail. No change required.

Incorrect use of adjectives or adverbs

× Because I don't feel there is any benefits from only guests skimming or scanning.

Because I don't feel there are any benefits from only guessing, skimming, or scanning.

Errors: 'any benefits' requires plural verb 'are' not 'is' (subject-verb agreement, ID 27). 'guests' is a wrong word; likely 'guessing' (vocabulary error, ID 13). Word order: 'only guessing, skimming, or scanning' is more natural. Suggestion: ensure subject-verb agreement with plural nouns and check word choice for correct verbs.

Singular and plural issue

× So when I read, I read with details to have a rich information and to acknowledge my mind with many.

So when I read, I read in detail to gain rich information and to fill my mind with many ideas.

Problems: 'read with details' should be 'read in detail' (idiomatic phrasing; ID 1/6). 'a rich information' is incorrect because 'information' is uncountable and should not take 'a' (article/quantifier error, ID 22/14). 'to acknowledge my mind with many' is ungrammatical and vague; 'to fill my mind with many ideas' clarifies meaning (sentence structure error, ID 26). Suggestion: use idiomatic expressions like 'in detail', avoid 'a' with uncountable nouns, and complete phrases with clear objects.
