Part 1

Examiner

Do you always bring a lot of keys with you?

Candidate

Honestly, I do have a just few keys. One is for my office. There are just three members in my office so each tends to have one copy of the key. And the other key which I have is my apartment key.

Examiner

Have you ever lost your keys?

Candidate

Yes, indeed, uh, I have lost several times my key of the apartment, but uh, every time I use my spare key to copy, make a copy from that prototype and use for further I need.

Examiner

Do you often forget the keys and lock yourself out?

Candidate

Oh there is a just only one case that I have locked my key of the car and I have used the special expertise to unlock my vehicle and get the key in from inside.

Examiner

Do you think it's a good idea to leave your keys with a neighbour?

Candidate

Yes, that could be a potential option in case if we lose our, uh, if we lose our keys. And just in case, if the neighbor is the trust faultly enough, then it could be potential possible way.

Part 1

Do you always bring a lot of keys with you?

Score: 62.0

Suggestion: Be more concise and correct grammar. Start with a clear topic sentence, avoid filler words (uh, just), and combine related facts with linking words. Also correct plural/singular forms and word order.

Example: Not really. I only carry a few keys: one for my office—there are three staff members so each of us has a copy—and one for my apartment.

Have you ever lost your keys?

Score: 55.0

Suggestion: Use a clear past experience sentence and explain the solution logically. Remove hesitations and fix verb forms. Say how often and what you did, using linking words like 'so' or 'therefore'.

Example: Yes. I have lost my apartment key a few times, so I always keep a spare copy and use it to make a new key when needed.

Do you often forget the keys and lock yourself out?

Score: 50.0

Suggestion: Answer directly (No/Yes) then give one clear example. Use correct tense and simpler vocabulary (locked my keys in the car, called a locksmith). Avoid awkward phrases like 'special expertise'.

Example: No, not often. Only once I locked my car keys inside the vehicle, so I called a locksmith who unlocked the car for me.

Do you think it's a good idea to leave your keys with a neighbour?

Score: 58.0

Suggestion: Give a balanced opinion with reasons and condition. Use linking words (however, if) and correct adjectives (trustworthy). Keep it concise and natural.

Example: Yes, it can be convenient if you lose your keys; however, only do this if the neighbour is trustworthy and reliable.

Grammar

Quantifier/Article and Word Order issues (Singular and plural issue, Article errors, Incorrect adverb placement)

× Honestly, I do have a just few keys.

Honestly, I do have just a few keys.

The phrase 'a just few' uses incorrect word order and articles for English quantifiers. Use 'just a few' to mean 'only a small number'. Keep 'a' before 'few' and 'just' before the phrase: 'just a few'. Suggestion: Place 'just' directly before 'a few' as in 'just a few'.

Singular and plural issue

× One is for my office.

One is for my office.

This sentence is grammatically correct. It correctly uses singular 'one' to refer to a single key for the office. Suggestion: No change needed.

Singular and plural issue

× There are just three members in my office so each tends to have one copy of the key.

There are just three members in my office, so each has a copy of the key.

Original uses 'each tends to have one copy' which is wordy and awkward. Use 'each has a copy' for clear subject-verb agreement and concise expression. Also add a comma before 'so' connecting independent clauses. Suggestion: Use 'each has a copy' for natural phrasing.

Sentence structure errors

× And the other key which I have is my apartment key.

The other key I have is my apartment key.

The relative clause 'which I have' is unnecessary and makes the sentence wordy. Omitting 'which' and reordering yields a more natural sentence. Suggestion: Use the reduced relative clause 'The other key I have...'.

Present perfect / Word order issue (Present tense issue)

× Yes, indeed, uh, I have lost several times my key of the apartment, but uh, every time I use my spare key to copy, make a copy from that prototype and use for further I need.

Yes, indeed, I have lost my apartment key several times, but each time I use my spare key to make a copy of it for future use.

Word order and article use are incorrect. Place 'my apartment key' together, and use 'several times' after 'lost'. Use 'make a copy of it' rather than 'copy, make a copy from that prototype'. 'For future use' is the correct idiom. Suggestion: Keep the object ('my apartment key') together, place frequency adverb after the verb, and use the idiom 'for future use'.

Article errors / Word order

× Oh there is a just only one case that I have locked my key of the car and I have used the special expertise to unlock my vehicle and get the key in from inside.

Oh, there was just one time when I locked my car keys inside, and I used a professional service to unlock my vehicle and retrieve the key.

Multiple issues: tense should be past ('there was'), word order with 'just only one case' is incorrect (use 'just one time'), 'locked my key of the car' is unnatural — use 'locked my car keys inside', and 'special expertise' should be 'a professional service' or 'a specialist'. 'Get the key in from inside' is awkward; use 'retrieve the key.' Suggestion: Use natural phrases 'locked my car keys inside', 'a professional service', and 'retrieve the key'.

Modal verb usage / Word choice

× Yes, that could be a potential option in case if we lose our, uh, if we lose our keys.

Yes, that could be an option in case we lose our keys.

Redundant and awkward wording: 'could be a potential option' is repetitive (either 'could be an option' or 'a potential option'). Do not use both 'in case if' — choose 'in case' or 'if'. Suggestion: Use concise phrasing: 'could be an option in case we lose our keys'.

Incorrect use of adjectives or adverbs / Word choice

× And just in case, if the neighbor is the trust faultly enough, then it could be potential possible way.

And just in case, if the neighbor is trustworthy enough, then it could be a possible way.

'Trust faultly' is not a word; use 'trustworthy'. 'Potential possible' is redundant; use one adjective. Also add the article 'a' before 'possible way'. Suggestion: Use 'trustworthy' and avoid redundant modifiers: 'a possible way'.
