Examiner
Do you prefer to read on paper or on a screen?
Candidate
I think I prefer to lead on a screen because it's very convenient to bring the anywhere, anywhere so so it's very easy to read, so it can it can provide me. A. Last trick or less trick of environment?
Examiner
When do you need to read carefully, and when not?
Candidate
I would like to say it as I would like to say reading reading a higher subject of reading because I should choose the answer and select the keyword.
Examiner
Do you prefer scanning or detailed reading?
Candidate
I think it depends on situation or basically I reading. I read a book just so scanning is fine, but in English I should read detail and detail.
Do you like reading?
Score: 52.0Suggestion: Your answer communicates the main idea but has grammatical errors, repetition and unclear phrases. To improve: (1) Start with a clear topic sentence: say whether you like reading. (2) Use correct grammar for reasons (e.g., 'I am preparing for the IAS exam, so I need to read in English'). (3) Avoid repeating words and add one specific supporting detail. (4) Keep it within 2–4 sentences and use linking phrases such as 'because' or 'for example.'
Example: Yes, I do. I am currently preparing for the IAS exam, so I need to read many English books to improve my vocabulary and comprehension. For example, I often read English novels to learn useful expressions and natural phrases.
Do you prefer to read on paper or on a screen?
Score: 45.0Suggestion: Your response gives a clear preference but has pronunciation/word choice mistakes and fragmented sentences. To improve: (1) Use correct verbs ('read' not 'lead') and avoid filler words. (2) Provide one or two concise reasons with linking words like 'because' and 'also.' (3) Keep sentences short and coherent, and avoid unclear fragments. (4) Add a specific example of convenience (e.g., carrying multiple books on a tablet).
Example: I prefer reading on a screen because it is much more convenient to carry multiple books on my tablet. Also, I can adjust the font size and use a dictionary app, which makes studying easier.
When do you need to read carefully, and when not?
Score: 40.0Suggestion: The answer is unclear and repetitive. To improve: (1) Begin with a clear contrast: state when careful reading is necessary and when skimming is okay. (2) Use linking phrases like 'when' and 'but' and give a concrete context (e.g., exams vs. leisure). (3) Use precise vocabulary (e.g., 'scan' or 'skim,' 'carefully read' and 'look for keywords'). (4) Limit to 2–3 concise sentences.
Example: I need to read carefully when I'm studying for exams or answering comprehension questions because I must find keywords and understand details. But when I'm reading for pleasure or looking for general ideas, I usually skim the text quickly.
Do you prefer scanning or detailed reading?
Score: 48.0Suggestion: Your answer expresses the idea but is repetitive and grammatically weak. To improve: (1) Start with a clear topic sentence: 'It depends on the situation.' (2) Use contrastive linking words like 'however' and give specific examples for each method. (3) Avoid repeating words and use correct noun forms ('detailed reading'). (4) Keep it within 2–4 sentences.
Example: It depends on the situation. For leisure books I usually scan to get the main ideas, but for English texts or study materials I prefer detailed reading so I can understand grammar and vocabulary precisely.
× Yes, because I have to this day I'm starting for the IAS exam, so I ought to read books in English.
✓ Yes, because these days I'm preparing for the IAS exam, so I need to read books in English.
The original mixes tenses and uses awkward phrasing. 'This day' is wrong; 'these days' or 'currently' is correct for ongoing actions. 'I'm starting for the IAS exam' is not natural; use 'preparing for' or 'studying for'. 'Ought to' is acceptable but 'need to' is more natural here. Suggestion: use consistent present continuous for ongoing preparation and choose natural collocations ('preparing for the exam').
× Sometimes I lead English novels to learn some expressions.
✓ Sometimes I read English novels to learn expressions.
The verb 'lead' is incorrect; the intended verb is 'read'. Use the base form 'read' (pronounced 'reed') for the simple present or past depending on context. 'Sometimes I read' is correct. Also omit the article before 'expressions' unless specific expressions are meant.
× I think I prefer to lead on a screen because it's very convenient to bring the anywhere, anywhere so so it's very easy to read, so it can it can provide me.
✓ I think I prefer to read on a screen because it's very convenient to carry anywhere, so it's very easy to read and it helps me.
Multiple errors: 'lead' should be 'read' (verb choice). 'Bring the anywhere' is ungrammatical; use 'carry anywhere' or 'take it anywhere'. Remove repeated words and redundant phrases. 'It can provide me' is incomplete; replace with 'it helps me' or specify what it provides (e.g., 'it provides convenience'). Use consistent present tense verbs.
× A. Last trick or less trick of environment?
✓ Do you mean the advantages or disadvantages of the environment?
This fragment is unclear and ungrammatical. Likely the student meant to ask about advantages ('lessons'?) or 'pros and cons' of reading on a screen versus paper. Rephrase as a full question: 'Do you mean the advantages or disadvantages of the environment?' or better, 'Do you mean the advantages and disadvantages of reading on a screen?'. Ensure complete sentence structure and clear vocabulary.
× I would like to say it as I would like to say reading reading a higher subject of reading because I should choose the answer and select the keyword.
✓ I would like to say that when reading a more difficult subject I need to read carefully because I have to choose the answer and select keywords.
The original repeats phrases and has unclear nouns ('higher subject of reading'). Use 'more difficult subject' or 'a harder topic'. 'Choose the answer and select the keyword' should be plural 'keywords' if multiple. Maintain consistent present tense: 'I need to' or 'I have to' for habitual exam behavior. Remove repetitions and clarify purpose.
× I think it depends on situation or basically I reading.
✓ I think it depends on the situation; basically I skim when reading casually.
Missing article 'the' before 'situation'. 'I reading' is missing an auxiliary or correct verb form; use 'I skim' or 'I read casually'. Use present simple for habitual actions and include articles where required.
× I read a book just so scanning is fine, but in English I should read detail and detail.
✓ If I'm reading a book casually, scanning is fine, but for English I should read in detail.
'So scanning is fine' is awkward; 'scanning is fine' suffices. 'Read detail and detail' is incorrect; use the phrase 'read in detail' or 'read carefully'. Ensure proper preposition 'in' with 'detail' and consistent tense/aspect.
