That could be, Delvy. Perhaps Meonhein was looking for some feedback on the quality and clarity of her voice? Either way, I hope the feedback is helpful to her.

Bunni does a great job pointing out the areas of error. Abs's rewrite is quite good. Please refer to his/her suggestions.

Hi Dance,
Thank you for the feedback. Yes, I tried to design it to be tougher than the actual IELTS. Most of the test takers that have attempted it report the same thing.
