Part 1

Examiner

Do you like taking pictures of different views?

Candidate

Yes, I do like taking pictures of different views. I am fascinated with our nature. I love taking photos of the mountains, the terrains. I also do like to take pictures of people in general, like street photography. I do like taking pictures of animals, yeah.

Examiner

Do you prefer views in urban areas or rural areas?

Candidate

Umm, I'm not actually sure if I only prefer one, but maybe in this question I'd say I prefer rural areas because as I as I've said, I do like nature, photography, landscapes, mountains, terrains. So yeah, I prefer rural areas.

Examiner

Do you prefer views in your own country or in other countries?

Candidate

I like the view in my country, but I prefer the views in other countries because it this is something new to me. I have never seen those places so it still fascinates me compared to the views in my country where I'm used to. So I like the view of other country more.

Part 1

Do you like taking pictures of different views?

Score: 82.0

Suggestion: Your answer is natural and covers several types of subjects, but it is slightly repetitive and could be more concise and structured. Aim for a clear topic sentence followed by two brief, specific supporting details. Reduce repetition (e.g. avoid repeating "I do like") and vary vocabulary (use 'landscapes' instead of repeating 'views' or 'terrains').

Example: Yes — I enjoy photographing different scenes. For example, I often shoot natural landscapes such as mountains and rolling fields because I like dramatic light, and I also do street photography to capture candid human moments. Occasionally I photograph animals, especially birds, when I visit parks.

Do you prefer views in urban areas or rural areas?

Score: 75.0

Suggestion: Good that you answered directly, but hesitations and repetition weaken the response. Start with a clear, confident topic sentence and give one or two concise reasons with linking words (e.g. 'because' and 'for example'). Avoid filler phrases like 'I'm not actually sure' in the test.

Example: I prefer rural areas because I enjoy natural landscapes and quiet settings. For example, mountains and wide fields give me better photo opportunities and fewer distractions than busy city streets.

Do you prefer views in your own country or in other countries?

Score: 78.0

Suggestion: Your answer is clear and gives a reason, but there are some grammar mistakes and slight repetition. Use a concise topic sentence, then give one specific reason and an example. Correct small errors (e.g. 'it this is' → 'because they are') and avoid repeating the same idea twice.

Example: I prefer views in other countries because they offer new and unfamiliar scenes that fascinate me. For instance, I once visited coastal cliffs abroad and found their unique geology and light very different from the landscapes I see at home.

Grammar

Incorrect use of pronouns

× I am fascinated with our nature.

I am fascinated by nature.

Use of the possessive pronoun 'our' is unnecessary and sounds odd here; 'nature' without a determiner is idiomatic. Also, the verb 'fascinated by' is the usual collocation (not 'fascinated with'). Suggestion: use 'I am fascinated by nature.'

Incorrect use of adjectives or adverbs

× I love taking photos of the mountains, the terrains.

I love taking photos of mountains and terrain.

'The mountains' is acceptable but 'the terrains' is incorrect: 'terrain' is usually uncountable and does not take 'the' in this context. Use the plural 'mountains' and uncountable 'terrain.' Also replace the comma with 'and' for natural coordination.

Incorrect use of prepositions

× I also do like to take pictures of people in general, like street photography.

I also like to take pictures of people in general, such as in street photography.

The construction 'do like' is unnecessary for simple statements; use 'like.' 'Like' followed by an example is better expressed as 'such as' or 'for example.' This improves register and clarity.

Third person singular issue

× Umm, I'm not actually sure if I only prefer one, but maybe in this question I'd say I prefer rural areas because as I as I've said, I do like nature, photography, landscapes, mountains, terrains.

I'm not actually sure if I prefer only one, but for this question I'd say I prefer rural areas because, as I've said, I like nature, photography, landscapes, mountains and terrain.

Several issues: word order 'prefer only one' is more natural than 'only prefer one.' Remove redundant 'I as.' Use 'for this question' instead of 'in this question.' Replace 'I do like' with 'I like' for neutrality. Use 'mountains and terrain' as noted earlier.

Incorrect use of pronouns

× I like the view in my country, but I prefer the views in other countries because it this is something new to me.

I like the views in my country, but I prefer the views in other countries because this is something new to me.

Remove the extra pronoun 'it' before 'this' which creates a duplicate subject. Also pluralize 'views in my country' for consistency and naturalness.

Present tense issue

× I have never seen those places so it still fascinates me compared to the views in my country where I'm used to.

I have never seen those places, so they still fascinate me compared to the views in my country that I'm used to.

Pronoun agreement: 'those places' is plural, so use 'they' and the plural verb 'fascinate.' Also 'where I'm used to' is incomplete — better 'that I'm used to' or 'which I'm used to.' Add a comma before 'so.'

Incorrect use of prepositions

× So I like the view of other country more.

So I like the views of other countries more.

Use plural 'countries' and plural 'views' to match meaning. Use 'of other countries' rather than 'of other country.' Also 'more' is fine for preference.
