Well, that is an interesting question, and this is bad for me, in my opinion, because technology has not changed how we communicate with each other. All the people have phones and computers, and all the children play games on phones. It is interesting that offline games are real, so this has not changed communication.
The answer follows a clear sequence: it gives an opinion, mentions phones and computers, then adds a point about games. However, the examples do not fully explain why communication has not changed, and “offline games are real” feels disconnected from the main point. Practise speaking for 45 seconds: state your view, give one device-related example, and explain how it supports your view before concluding.
The answer uses relevant basic vocabulary, including “phones and computers” and “communicate with each other,” so the topic is clear. However, “this is bad for me” is vague in this context, and “offline games are real” is not a precise way to express the point. Next, learn and practise topic phrases such as “the basic way we communicate” and “face-to-face conversation,” using each in a clear example.
You use simple sentence forms that communicate the main opinion, for example, “technology has not changed how we communicate with each other.” The answer relies heavily on short statements joined with “and,” and “All the people have phones and computers” sounds unnatural as a generalisation. Practise combining an opinion and reason with “although” or “because,” and use “everyone” for a general statement about people.
This is a practice guide, not an assessment of a recording; no pronunciation can be judged from the text alone. Practise stressing the key words in “technology has not changed” and “phones and computers.” Say the answer in thought groups, pausing between the opinion and each supporting point. Record a 30–45-second version, then check whether the stressed words and group boundaries make your meaning easy to follow.
