Good afternoon.
YOUR RENDITION下午好。
I am Karen Black, the Principal.

OMISSIONThe role "the Principal" is lost. Who the two speakers are is key information in the scenario, and examiners always check it.
Thank you for your interest in enrolling your daughter at our school.
YOUR RENDITION谢谢你来我们学校。−2
DISTORTIONThe core intent "enrolling your daughter" was flattened into "coming to our school" — the information did not get across, which is a heavy deduction. Numbers, names and intent are the three biggest mark-losers in the CCL.

EXAMINER'S COMMENT
EXAMINER · AI
Fast off the mark (2.1 s) and a steady delivery — that is your strength. Every mark lost here is information completeness: one role, one intent. What to train — anchor titles, names and intent verbs in your notes; secure the information first, polish the flow second. 2.5 marks lost in this segment. It is not your language that is short, it is the information.
