Task Response

The report covers the requirements of the task, presenting a clear overview of the data and highlighting key trends and comparisons. There are a few minor areas for improvement. For instance, while the overall trends are identified, more specific data points could be included to strengthen the analysis. Additionally, the language used is generally accurate, but some sentences could be more concise and precise.

Coherence & Cohesion

The report demonstrates an adequate attempt to organize the information, but the flow could be improved. The introduction and overall statements are present, but the transitions between paragraphs and ideas could be smoother. Consider using more varied cohesive devices to link ideas within and between paragraphs. For example, using 'In addition' or 'Similarly' can help to connect related points more effectively. Paragraphing is generally acceptable, but ensure each paragraph focuses on a single main idea to enhance clarity.

Lexical Resource

The report uses a reasonable range of vocabulary, but there are instances where more precise word choices could enhance the description. For example, instead of 'the young ones lesser than the older ones,' consider 'younger individuals less than older individuals.' Focus on using synonyms and varied vocabulary to describe trends and comparisons more effectively. While the vocabulary is generally appropriate, refining word choices will improve the overall impact. Boost vocabulary complexity to elevate the overall score.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

The report contains several grammatical errors that affect clarity. For example, 'The shown graphs depicts' should be 'The shown graphs depict,' and 'greastest time spent are by two groups' should be 'greatest time is spent by two groups.' Pay close attention to subject-verb agreement, correct tense usage, and article usage. While a variety of sentence structures are attempted, accuracy needs improvement to ensure the message is conveyed clearly. Proofreading carefully for grammatical errors is essential.
