Okay.
So describe something important that has been kept in your family for a long time.
Please say, what is it?
What does it look like?
Why is it important to your family?
And explain how you feel about it.
You have one minute to prepare.
Okay.
Please stop.
You now have 2 minutes to speak.
Begin speaking now.
So today I'd like to tell an important
property which have been kept by my family for a long time.
It's a land since we are farmers from a.
Some 2 to 3 generations.
We tend to keep our farmland very safely.
After my grandfather's death, my father got about five acres of land in our native.
So.
So from that time, you used to plant a mango on coconut trees.
Farming is our.
Farming is essential.
Farming is.
Farming is very, very much essential for us.
So we tend to keep it for a long time.
Also, it is most important to me because we used to bury our ancestors and so we keep that as a temple
to worship everyone, not only our ancestors, even myself.
So everyone used to get buried there and we worship as a temple.
As I said earlier, I feel extremely, extremely not.
I take it as an extremely.
I consider it as an important task for each and everyone in my family because maintaining a farmland
is not that easy.
Also, without selling it, we have to safeguard and pass it to the next generation.
This is our main aim.
So it gives us a responsibility for our family and it secures our family name for a long time.
All right.
Move on to part number three.
Please don't look at the screen.
Okay.
All right.
First question.
What kind of things do people nowadays keep from the past?
In my country, they throw paper jewels.
And apart from that, some of the vessels used by their ancestors and also the land and the house,
but not all sort of house.
They used to keep land, but the houses were generally demolished and rebuilt for their own convenience.
All right.
Next question.
Do people of different ages choose to keep the same kind of things from the past?
Well.
I'm not sure because some young people.
Don't take it as important task or important task or a thing to keep their ancestral ancestors property.
But some young people like me worship with other people and safeguard it for further generations.
All right.
And final question.
What kind of emotions do people experience while looking at things from the past that belonged to their
loved ones?
Well, first of all, they were definitely happy for seeing the things, but certainly they will also
cry a lot because they missed their loved ones.
So they would definitely cry.
Well, I think it's kind of a mixed feeling for them.
So it's a happy and sad situation, those type of.
All right.
Thank you very much.
You can go ahead and turn off your audio and video if you have any feedback.
You can go ahead and give him feedback.
Now, I think we can clearly say that the main issue that he has to work on is hesitation and pausing.
There was a lot of hesitation in pausing and as you've heard me say several times.
That makes that that breaks up the coherence of what you're trying to say.
Also, I can tell that having content to talk about wasn't an issue.
So his pausing and hesitation was not content related.
It was language related.
And when you're pausing and hesitation is language related, that actually will lower the score more
because language related issues are an indication of of English level content related hesitation is
more related to it is a much higher level mistake to make.
But that was something that that's the main thing that he has to work on is is the pausing and the hesitation.
He had the information to talk about it, but he just has to deliver just a little bit better.
Does anybody else have any other comment?
Yeah.
I mean, yeah, there was there were definitely rooms for for for synonyms.
There definitely is room to use more more synonyms.
Did you have a specific instance of what you're talking about in terms of synonyms and paraphrasing?
I mean, we could all all of us could always use more synonyms and paraphrasing.
It is it is a challenge to do it in the middle of while you're speaking.
But the more you're able to do that, the higher level skill that you're showing.
But I think overall he did a good job.
But the pausing and hesitation is really going to cause a problem because that can end up lowering the
score a lot.
Some of that might have to do with being nerves being.
Being nervous.
All right, Arjun, go ahead and activate your.
Hello?
Hi.
Can you.
Can you hear me?
And can you see me?
Yeah, but.
But what's up with all those?
What's that?
Grass.
