Part 1

Examiner

Do you like reading?

Candidate

Yes I do like reading and also I often reading a socio psychology and history books such as I recently reading Homo sapiens.

Examiner

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

Candidate

I prefer red on paper rather than a screen. The main reason is I had an eye surgery when I was young so that I reduce my time on the screen.

Examiner

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

Candidate

The time that I must read carefully when the material is related to education, for improving my knowledge, for example, while I'm studying for the Cambridge IELTS test or reading an article.

Examiner

Do you prefer scanning or detailed reading?

Candidate

It depends on some extent. For example, I prefer scanning as the time I read a news or article, but in contrast I prefer the tale reading for the learning, education, enforcement improvement.

Part 1

Do you like reading?

Score: 55.0

Suggestion: Begin with a clear, grammatically correct topic sentence. Correct verb forms and article use, and reduce redundancy. Add one or two specific supporting details (why you enjoy those genres, what you learned) using linking words for coherence.

Example: Yes, I enjoy reading, especially books on social psychology and history. For example, I recently read Sapiens by Yuval Noah Harari, which helped me understand how human societies developed. I like these genres because they combine ideas and real-world examples, so I can learn new perspectives while relaxing.

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

Score: 60.0

Suggestion: Give a direct topic sentence and fix basic grammar and word choice (read, prefer reading on paper). Explain the reason briefly and link it to consequences (e.g., reading comfort, focus). Keep it concise and natural.

Example: I prefer reading on paper rather than on a screen. Because I had eye surgery when I was young, I try to limit my screen time, so paper books are more comfortable and help me concentrate better.

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

Score: 65.0

Suggestion: Start with a clear topic sentence and use linking words to contrast situations. Be specific about examples and explain why careful reading is needed (e.g., to understand details, avoid mistakes). Keep it within 3–4 sentences.

Example: I need to read carefully when the material is related to my studies or professional learning. For example, while preparing for the Cambridge IELTS test I read slowly to understand question types and vocabulary. In contrast, I skim news articles when I just want a quick overview.

Do you prefer scanning or detailed reading?

Score: 50.0

Suggestion: Use a clearer structure: a direct answer followed by contrasting examples with correct vocabulary (scanning vs detailed reading). Correct unclear phrases ("tale reading" unclear) and explain when and why you choose each method. Use linking words like "however" or "on the other hand."

Example: It depends on the purpose. For quick updates like news, I scan headlines and first paragraphs to save time. However, for learning or studying, I read in detail so I can understand concepts and remember important points.

Grammar

Verb + -ing form

× Yes I do like reading and also I often reading a socio psychology and history books such as I recently reading Homo sapiens.

Yes, I do like reading, and I often read social psychology and history books; for example, I recently read Homo Sapiens.

The sentence uses incorrect verb forms after adverbs and auxiliary verbs. 'I often reading' should be 'I often read' (base form after adverb). 'I recently reading' should be 'I recently read' (past simple for a completed recent action). Also 'socio psychology' is incorrect; use 'social psychology'. Improve by using the correct verb form after adverbs and maintain consistent tense: use base form for habitual actions and past simple for completed past actions. Suggested practice: replace continuous '-ing' with base form for habitual verbs (I often read) and use past simple for recently completed actions (I recently read).

Incorrect use of prepositions

× I prefer red on paper rather than a screen.

I prefer reading on paper rather than on a screen.

The sentence contains a misspelling 'red' instead of 'read' (verb) and is missing the preposition 'on' before 'a screen'. Use the gerund 'reading' to show the activity and include 'on' for the medium: 'reading on paper' and 'on a screen'. Suggested practice: ensure correct verb spelling and include appropriate prepositions for places or mediums (prefer X on Y).

Past tense issue

× The main reason is I had an eye surgery when I was young so that I reduce my time on the screen.

The main reason is that I had eye surgery when I was young, so I reduce my time on screens.

Use 'had eye surgery' (no article before 'eye surgery' in general) and include 'that' after 'is' for clarity. The clause 'so that I reduce my time on the screen' is awkward: use 'so I reduce my time on screens' or 'so I limit my screen time.' Maintain tense consistency: past for the surgery, present for current habit. Suggested practice: omit unnecessary articles with medical procedures and choose clear linking words: 'The main reason is that...' and use plural 'screens' or 'screen time.'

Sentence structure errors

× The time that I must read carefully when the material is related to education, for improving my knowledge, for example, while I'm studying for the Cambridge IELTS test or reading an article.

I must read carefully when the material is related to education or when I want to improve my knowledge; for example, when I'm studying for the Cambridge IELTS test or reading an academic article.

Original sentence is a fragment and has awkward clause ordering. Use a clear main clause 'I must read carefully when...' and parallel structure for reasons ('related to education' and 'to improve my knowledge'). 'While I'm studying' is fine but pair with similar forms and specify 'academic article' if intended. Suggested practice: create a single main clause and follow with parallel, clear reasons joined by conjunctions; avoid dangling time clauses.

Incorrect use of quantifiers

× It depends on some extent. For example, I prefer scanning as the time I read a news or article, but in contrast I prefer the tale reading for the learning, education, enforcement improvement.

It depends to some extent. For example, I prefer scanning when I read news or articles, but for learning and education I prefer detailed reading.

Use the correct phrase 'to some extent' rather than 'on some extent.' 'A news' is incorrect; 'news' is uncountable, so use 'news' or 'a news article' or 'articles.' 'The tale reading' is incorrect and unclear; use 'detailed reading' for close study. 'Enforcement improvement' is unclear and likely incorrect; remove or replace with 'skill improvement' or omit. Maintain parallel structure: 'when I read news or articles' and 'for learning and education.' Suggested practice: learn common quantifier/prepositional phrases ('to some extent'), distinguish countable/uncountable nouns, and use standard terms like 'detailed reading.'
