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

Examinador
When do you need to read carefully, and when not?
Candidato
I need to learn carefully about the legal documents, medical instruction or instructions, or safety guidelines. And I believe I don't read as carefully for casual low stakes material like social media posts, promotional advert.
Do you like reading?
Puntuación: 58.0Sugerencia: Make your response more natural, concise and direct. Start with a clear topic sentence stating your preference, then briefly explain why using specific reasons and one example. Avoid redundancy and long awkward phrases (e.g. “I have tried so many times to do”). Use linking words such as “because” or “so” to connect ideas.
Ejemplo: To be honest, I don’t enjoy reading very much because I often find it boring and hard to concentrate. For example, I usually switch off after a few pages if the topic isn’t engaging. However, I do read articles about technology occasionally when I want to learn something practical.
Do you prefer to read on paper or on a screen?
Puntuación: 64.0Sugerencia: Clarify and complete the reason, avoid grammatical errors, and be specific about what makes screens easier (searchability, portability, adjustable text). Use a linking word to introduce the benefit and keep it to one or two sentences.
Ejemplo: I prefer reading on a screen rather than paper because it’s easier to search for information and adjust the font size. For instance, I can quickly find a paragraph with the search function when I’m studying online.
When do you need to read carefully, and when not?
Puntuación: 70.0Sugerencia: Organize your answer with a clear contrast: one sentence for when you read carefully and one for when you don’t. Use precise vocabulary (e.g. “legal documents,” “medical instructions,” “safety guidelines,” “social media posts,” “ads”) and linking words like “whereas” or “but.” Correct plural and article usage.
Ejemplo: I read very carefully when the material affects my health or responsibilities, such as legal documents, medical instructions, or safety guidelines. By contrast, I don’t pay much attention to casual content like social media posts or advertisements because the consequences are minor.
× I'm not fond of reading as I have tried so many times to do, but I feel it's so boring.
✓ I'm not fond of reading because I have tried it so many times, but I find it boring.
The original mixes awkward connectors and verb forms. 'As' is better replaced by 'because' for reason. 'Tried so many times to do' is unnatural; use 'tried it so many times' (present perfect is fine). 'I feel it's so boring' should be 'I find it boring' for natural English. Suggestion: use clear causal conjunctions and natural verb collocations.'
× I prefer to read on a screen to paper because I find it much easier to find some.
✓ I prefer reading on a screen to reading on paper because I find it much easier to find information.
The original misuses prepositions and omits a parallel structure. Use 'prefer X to Y' with parallel gerund phrases: 'reading on a screen to reading on paper.' 'Find some' is vague; likely 'find information' is intended. Suggestion: keep parallel forms and use precise nouns.'
× I need to learn carefully about the legal documents, medical instruction or instructions, or safety guidelines.
✓ I need to read legal documents, medical instructions, and safety guidelines carefully.
The sentence has article and word-choice issues. 'Learn carefully about the legal documents' is awkward; use 'read legal documents.' 'Medical instruction or instructions' is inconsistent—use plural 'medical instructions.' Use 'and' instead of commas for a clear list and place 'carefully' after the verb phrase. Suggestion: use correct noun forms, simpler verbs, and place adverbs appropriately.'
× And I believe I don't read as carefully for casual low stakes material like social media posts, promotional advert.
✓ I don't read as carefully for casual, low-stakes material like social media posts or promotional adverts.
The sentence needs punctuation and hyphenation: 'low-stakes' is a compound adjective and should be hyphenated. Use 'or' to join list items and plural 'adverts' for consistency. Also avoid starting with 'And' in formal speech; it's acceptable in spoken responses but not needed here. Suggestion: hyphenate compound adjectives, keep parallel plural nouns, and remove unnecessary conjunctions at the start.'
