In addition, Germany, USA, Russia, and S.Korea had higher percentages of graduation than Brazil and China.

Regarding the countries where a significant number of students were educated, S.Korea had the highest figure of education among 25-34 year-olds, accounting for approximately 100%. While, the USA had the highest number of graduates among 55-64 year-olds, representing over 80%. Meanwhile, Russia was the second one where adults from 25 to 34 had higher education, recording 90%.

Task Response

The report covers the main features of the bar chart and makes relevant comparisons. However, there are some inaccuracies in the data reported (e.g., USA elderly graduation rate, China's figures). To improve, ensure data accuracy and avoid minor errors. Also, the organization could be slightly improved for better flow.

Coherence & Cohesion

The report is generally well-organized with a clear structure, including an introduction, overview, and detailed paragraphs. The information is presented logically, and the use of cohesive devices helps to connect ideas. However, there are instances where the connections between sentences or ideas could be smoother. For example, in the second paragraph, the transition between the general observation and the specific example of the USA could be more explicit. Also, consider varying the sentence structure within paragraphs to improve readability.

Lexical Resource

The report demonstrates a good range of vocabulary related to describing data and making comparisons. Terms like 'distribution,' 'accounting for,' and 'representing' are used appropriately. However, there's room to enhance the sophistication of the language. For instance, instead of repeatedly using 'had the highest figure,' try alternative expressions like 'recorded the largest proportion' or 'exhibited the most significant percentage.' Also, ensure that the vocabulary is used with precision; for example, 'elderly people graduated' could be refined to 'older adults achieved high school education.' Pay attention to vocabulary repetition to improve the overall score.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

The report demonstrates a good command of grammar with a variety of sentence structures. Most sentences are grammatically correct, but there are some minor errors and phrasing issues that need attention. For example, in the second paragraph, 'where more elderly people graduated' could be improved for clarity and formality. Also, ensure subject-verb agreement and correct tense usage throughout the report. Pay close attention to articles (a/an/the) and prepositions, as these can sometimes be problematic. Proofreading carefully will help to eliminate these minor errors.
