Task Response

The report attempts to address the task but contains significant inaccuracies and a lack of clarity. The data is misinterpreted, leading to incorrect comparisons and proportions. The structure is somewhat present but lacks coherence and precision. To improve, focus on accurately representing the data from the bar chart, using precise figures and making correct comparisons. Ensure the overview captures the main trends accurately, and the body paragraphs provide specific details with correct values. Also, pay attention to the organization of information to ensure a logical flow.

Coherence & Cohesion

The report lacks clear organization and logical flow. The overview is weak, and the body paragraphs lack clear topic sentences and transitions. The information is not presented in a coherent manner, making it difficult to follow the main trends and comparisons. Paragraphing needs improvement to separate distinct ideas.

Lexical Resource

The vocabulary used is basic and repetitive. There is limited use of precise language to describe the data. The report would benefit from a wider range of vocabulary to express the information more accurately and effectively. For example, instead of repeating 'number of miles travelled,' try using synonyms or more specific terms related to travel and distance.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

The report contains numerous grammatical errors, including incorrect verb tenses, subject-verb agreement issues, and punctuation mistakes. Sentence structure is often awkward and unclear. These errors significantly impede understanding. Focus on improving basic grammar and sentence construction to enhance clarity.
