Task Response

The report covers the main trends and makes relevant comparisons, but there are some inaccuracies in the data reported. For example, the report states that in 2010 around 45% of total exports were done by sea, while the visual description states it was over 50%. Also, the report states that in 2011 the sea exports increased by a few percent, but the visual description states that it decreased. To improve, ensure that the data reported is accurate and consistent with the visual description.

Coherence & Cohesion

The report presents a generally clear overview of the data, but the organization could be improved for better flow. Consider structuring the body paragraphs to focus on each mode of transport separately, discussing its changes across the years in one place. This would enhance the coherence of the report. Also, ensure that transitions between sentences and paragraphs are smooth and logical to guide the reader effectively.

Lexical Resource

The vocabulary used is adequate for describing the trends and data in the bar chart. However, there's room to enhance the lexical resource by incorporating more precise and varied language. For example, instead of repeatedly using 'increased' or 'decreased,' try synonyms like 'rose,' 'grew,' 'diminished,' or 'contracted.' Also, consider using more specific terms to describe the modes of transport or the nature of the changes observed. Boost vocabulary complexity to elevate the overall score.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

The report demonstrates a basic understanding of grammatical structures, but there are noticeable errors that affect clarity. Pay close attention to subject-verb agreement, correct tense usage, and article usage. For instance, sentences like 'export by road slightly increased above 15%' contain grammatical inaccuracies. Review and correct these errors to improve the overall grammatical accuracy of the report. Proofreading is essential to catch these mistakes.
