Conversation

Part 1

Examiner

Do you like reading?

Candidate

No, I don't like reading because reading too much can feel bored and I cannot fully concentrate on the book, so I don't like reading.

Examiner

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

Candidate

Uh, I enjoy reading on a paper because reading on the paper is being natural for it's a natural way for reading a while reading on the screen, uh, it is very harmful to our eyes. So reading on the paper is a good way to protect our eyes and it's a natural way to get.

Examiner

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

Candidate

Uh, in the final, in the, in the examination, I need to read carefully because there are many demands. There are many, uh, demands on the question, so I need to read carefully and sometimes I didn't need to carefully. It's about the, uh, virtual something outside the activity because it is unnecessary.

Examiner

Do you prefer scanning or detailed reading?

Candidate

Uh, for me I prefer the detail reading because when I enjoy when I experience detail reading, I can learn from more details on it. But if I learn for the scanning, maybe I just do scanning for scanning, it's a waste of time and I couldn't learn from the passage.

Part 1

Do you like reading?

Score: 58.0

Suggestion: Answer directly but avoid repeating the same idea. Begin with a clear topic sentence, give one or two specific reasons, and use a linking word to connect them. Correct grammar (e.g., 'reading becomes boring' not 'feel bored') and reduce redundancy.

Example: No, I don't enjoy reading very much. I often find that long texts make me bored and it's hard for me to concentrate for more than a few minutes, so I usually choose other activities like podcasts or videos instead.

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

Score: 60.0

Suggestion: Give a clear preference and support it with two concise, specific reasons. Avoid filler words and correct grammar (e.g., 'on paper' not 'on a paper'). Use linking words like 'because' and 'also'.

Example: I prefer reading on paper because it feels more natural and is easier on my eyes. Also, paper helps me focus better than screens, which can be distracting and cause eye strain.

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

Score: 50.0

Suggestion: Start with a direct statement answering both parts (when you read carefully and when you don't). Use specific examples (e.g., exams, invitation letters) and linking words like 'for example' or 'however'. Avoid vague phrases like 'demands' and unclear references.

Example: I need to read carefully during exams or when filling in official forms because small details can change the meaning. However, I don't read carefully for casual things like social media posts or flyers, where a quick skim is enough.

Do you prefer scanning or detailed reading?

Score: 62.0

Suggestion: Give a clear preference and explain with two concise, specific reasons using linking words (e.g., 'because', 'however'). Fix grammar (e.g., 'detailed reading' not 'detail reading') and avoid repeated phrases.

Example: I prefer detailed reading because it helps me understand the ideas and remember important information. However, I sometimes scan when I need to find a single fact quickly, such as a date or name.

Grammar

Incorrect use of adjectives or adverbs

× No, I don't like reading because reading too much can feel bored and I cannot fully concentrate on the book, so I don't like reading.

No, I don't like reading because reading too much can make me feel bored and I cannot fully concentrate on the book, so I don't enjoy it.

The adjective 'bored' describes a person rather than an action. Use the verb phrase 'make me feel bored' or the adjective 'boring' to describe something that causes boredom. Also replace the repeated 'I don't like reading' with 'I don't enjoy it' to avoid redundancy. Suggestion: Use 'make me feel bored' or 'is boring' and vary wording to avoid repetition.

Article errors

× Uh, I enjoy reading on a paper because reading on the paper is being natural for it's a natural way for reading a while reading on the screen, uh, it is very harmful to our eyes. So reading on the paper is a good way to protect our eyes and it's a natural way to get.

Uh, I enjoy reading on paper because reading on paper feels natural; reading on a screen, however, can be harmful to our eyes. So reading on paper is a good way to protect our eyes and feels natural.

'On paper' and 'on screen' are idiomatic and do not require the indefinite article 'a'. 'Is being natural' is incorrect—use 'feels natural' or 'is natural'. The sentence was also fragmented and redundant; combine clauses for clarity. Remove the unfinished phrase 'a way to get'. Suggestion: Use idiomatic prepositional phrases ('on paper', 'on screen') and present simple verbs like 'feels'.

Tense issue

× Uh, in the final, in the, in the examination, I need to read carefully because there are many demands. There are many, uh, demands on the question, so I need to read carefully and sometimes I didn't need to carefully. It's about the, uh, virtual something outside the activity because it is unnecessary.

Uh, in the final examination I need to read carefully because there are many requirements in the questions, so I must read carefully. Sometimes I don't need to read carefully for minor tasks or activities because it is unnecessary.

The speaker mixed past ('didn't') with present context. Use present simple 'don't need' or modal 'don't have to' for general statements. 'Demands' is better as 'requirements'. Also 'read carefully' needs the verb 'read' after 'need to'. Replace unclear phrase with 'minor tasks or activities' for clarity. Suggestion: Maintain consistent present tense for general facts and use appropriate nouns ('requirements').

Incorrect use of quantifiers

× Uh, for me I prefer the detail reading because when I enjoy when I experience detail reading, I can learn from more details on it. But if I learn for the scanning, maybe I just do scanning for scanning, it's a waste of time and I couldn't learn from the passage.

Uh, for me I prefer detailed reading because when I do detailed reading I can learn more from the text. But if I only scan the text, I may miss important information, so scanning can be a waste of time and I might not learn much from the passage.

'Detail reading' is incorrect; use the adjective 'detailed' or the noun phrase 'detailed reading'. 'Learn from more details on it' is awkward—use 'learn more from the text'. Tense and modal errors: 'couldn't' should be 'might not' or 'may not' to express possibility. Repetition 'do scanning for scanning' is redundant—simplify to 'only scan the text'. Suggestion: Use correct adjective forms ('detailed') and modal verbs ('may', 'might') to express possibility.
