Task Response

The report attempts to address the task by describing population growth in five cities over three time periods. However, there are several inaccuracies and omissions in the data (e.g., New York's population is described as 'similarity above all mention years around 17 million', which is not accurate). The report also includes some irrelevant or unclear statements (e.g., 'the number of population was superior in 2010'). Comparisons are attempted but could be more precise and relevant. To improve, focus on accurately reporting key data points, making clear comparisons between cities and time periods, and ensuring the description is logically organized and free of spelling/grammar errors.

Coherence & Cohesion

The report has a basic structure with an introduction and body paragraphs, but the flow of information is often disrupted. The use of cohesive devices is limited and sometimes inaccurate (e.g., 'In case of', 'When it comes to'). The paragraphing could be improved to better group related information and comparisons. To improve, focus on using a wider range of linking words and phrases (e.g., 'in contrast', 'similarly', 'while') and ensure each paragraph has a clear central topic.

Lexical Resource

The vocabulary used is limited and contains several errors and inappropriate choices (e.g., 'statostical representation', 'depected', 'superior', 'similerity', 'ammount'). There is an attempt to use some descriptive language (e.g., 'dramaticaly rose', 'rising sharply'), but it is not always accurate or natural. To improve, work on building a wider range of topic-specific vocabulary (e.g., 'experienced a significant increase', 'saw a steady rise', 'remained relatively stable') and ensure correct spelling and word forms.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

The report contains frequent grammatical errors, including subject-verb agreement issues ('population was rise'), incorrect verb tenses ('Tokyo experience'), and problems with articles and prepositions. Sentence structures are often simple or incorrectly formed. To improve, focus on mastering basic sentence structures and verb tenses, and practice using a mix of simple, compound, and complex sentences with greater accuracy. Proofreading for common errors is also essential.
