Task Response

The report addresses the task by describing the main trends in the graph, but it contains several inaccuracies and inconsistencies in the data and descriptions. For example, it incorrectly states that public transport, bicycle, and walking showed an overall upward trend, while the data shows they generally declined. It also mislabels walking as the least used mode throughout the period, whereas bicycle had lower percentages in later years. Additionally, there are spelling errors (e.g., 'initialy', 'priod', 'thehighest', 'Anothere', 'whole', 'strated', 'bycicle', 'ultimatly') and some unclear phrasing. To improve, focus on accurately reporting the data trends and comparisons, and proofread for spelling and grammar. Ensure that the overview correctly summarizes the main features without contradictions.

Coherence & Cohesion

The report has a logical structure with an introduction, an overview, and a detailed section. However, the overview contains some inaccuracies and unclear phrasing (e.g., 'Anothere notable point is that public transport, bicycle, and walking showed overall an upward trend, while walking was the least whole the period'), which disrupts clarity. The use of cohesive devices is basic, and some sentences are poorly connected. To improve, ensure the overview accurately summarizes the main trends and use a wider range of linking words and phrases to enhance flow.

Lexical Resource

The vocabulary is adequate but limited and repetitive (e.g., 'percentage', 'proportion', 'increased', 'decreased'). There are several spelling errors (e.g., 'initialy', 'priod', 'thehighest', 'Anothere', 'strated', 'bycicle', 'ultimatly') and some inappropriate word choices (e.g., 'whole the period' instead of 'throughout the period'). To improve, expand your range of synonyms and ensure correct spelling and collocations.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

The report uses a mix of simple and complex sentences, but there are frequent grammatical errors (e.g., 'had a upward trend' should be 'had an upward trend', 'thehighest' should be 'the highest', 'decline' should be 'declined', 'ultimatly experienced' should be 'ultimately experienced'). Punctuation is inconsistent, with incorrect use of semicolons and commas. To improve, focus on subject-verb agreement, verb tenses, and punctuation rules.
