Part 1
Examinador
Do you like reading?
Candidato
Yes, definitely. I enjoy reading in my free time, especially at home or during my commute. On public transport, I usually read either on my phone or from a physical book. Both are convenient, but I prefer physical books when I want to concentrate because they are easier on my eyes.
Examinador
Do you prefer to read on paper or on a screen?
Candidato
I usually prefer reading physical books because they are gentler on my eyes and reduce screen fatigue. When I read on on a screen, I need to concentrate harder and often get distracted by notifications so I retain less information.
Examinador
When do you need to read carefully, and when not?
Candidato
I usually read carefully when I need to understand important information, for example when following instructions, studying for exam or reading a book e-mail because missing details could cause mistake. In contrast, I don't read carefully when I'm skimming news headlines or social media posters for general interest since.
Examinador
Do you prefer scanning or detailed reading?
Candidato
Well, it depends. For example, I usually read carefully when I need to understand important information, for example when following instructions or studying for an exam. In contrast, I don't need carefully like I used to scheming news headlines or social media posts for general interest, since I only need a quick overview.
Do you like reading?
Puntuación: 82.0Sugerencia: Good, natural answer with clear preference and supporting details. To improve, make the response slightly more concise and correct small grammatical slips (e.g., "when I want to concentrate" is fine but avoid repeating ideas). Add a brief linking phrase to connect commute and preference: a short concluding sentence that summarizes the main point will increase coherence.
Ejemplo: Yes, I do. I enjoy reading in my free time, especially at home or during my commute. On public transport I either read on my phone or from a physical book, but I prefer physical books when I need to concentrate because they are gentler on my eyes.
Do you prefer to read on paper or on a screen?
Puntuación: 78.0Sugerencia: Clear preference and reasons given, but there is a small repetition error (“on on a screen”) and a run-on sentence. Improve by fixing repetition, using a linking word (therefore/however), and adding a concise example of a distracting notification to be more specific.
Ejemplo: I prefer reading on paper because it's gentler on my eyes and reduces screen fatigue. When I read on a screen, I often get distracted by notifications, so I retain less information; for example, social media alerts break my focus.
When do you need to read carefully, and when not?
Puntuación: 66.0Sugerencia: Answer addresses the question but has several grammatical errors and awkward phrasing (e.g., "studying for exam", "reading a book e-mail", "could cause mistake", unfinished ending). Improve by correcting articles and word order, finishing the contrast clause, and adding a linking phrase. Be specific about what kinds of instructions or exams to strengthen content.
Ejemplo: I read carefully when the information matters, for example when following assembly instructions or studying for an important exam, because missing details could cause mistakes. In contrast, I skim news headlines or social media posts for a quick overview when I just want general information.
Do you prefer scanning or detailed reading?
Puntuación: 64.0Sugerencia: The answer repeats content from the previous question and contains multiple errors ("don't need carefully", "scheming"). To improve, avoid repetition by giving a brief direct topic sentence, then add a clear contrast with correct grammar and a linking word. Provide a concise specific example of when you scan versus when you read in detail.
Ejemplo: It depends: I prefer detailed reading for important tasks, such as studying for an exam or following technical instructions. However, I scan news articles or social media posts when I only want a quick overview, because I don't need all the details.

✓ On public transport, I usually read either on my phone or from a physical book.
'read' is correct here; no present participle needed. This entry is included only if required by the list, but sentence is already correct. Keep as is.
× When I read on on a screen, I need to concentrate harder and often get distracted by notifications so I retain less information.
✓ When I read on a screen, I need to concentrate harder and often get distracted by notifications, so I retain less information.
There is a duplicated preposition 'on on'; remove the extra 'on'. Also add a comma before 'so' to separate the clauses for clarity.
× I usually read carefully when I need to understand important information, for example when following instructions, studying for exam or reading a book e-mail because missing details could cause mistake.
✓ I usually read carefully when I need to understand important information, for example when following instructions, studying for an exam, or reading an email because missing details could cause mistakes.
Missing articles: 'an exam' requires the indefinite article 'an'. 'a book e-mail' is awkward: use 'an email' or 'a book' depending on meaning; here 'reading an email' fits. 'mistake' should be plural 'mistakes' to match general sense. Also add commas for clarity.
× In contrast, I don't read carefully when I'm skimming news headlines or social media posters for general interest since.
✓ In contrast, I don't read carefully when I'm skimming news headlines or social media posts for general interest.
The sentence ends with the conjunction 'since' without completing the clause, creating a sentence fragment. Remove 'since' or complete the clause. 'social media posters' is incorrect; use 'social media posts'.
× In contrast, I don't need carefully like I used to scheming news headlines or social media posts for general interest, since I only need a quick overview.
✓ In contrast, I don't need to read carefully like I used to when skimming news headlines or social media posts for general interest, since I only need a quick overview.
'need carefully' is incorrect—use 'need to read carefully'. 'scheming' is a misspelling of 'skimming'. Also add 'when' before 'skimming' to link clauses properly.
