Task Response

The report addresses the main trends and provides a comparison between the two years, which is the primary requirement of the task. However, the response is somewhat repetitive, as the increase in gaming and social media is mentioned in multiple paragraphs without adding new depth. To improve, ensure that each paragraph serves a distinct purpose (e.g., one for high-usage activities and one for low-usage activities) and avoid repeating the same observations. Additionally, while the data points are mostly accurate, the organization could be more logical to avoid redundancy. The report falls short of the required 150 words.

Coherence & Cohesion

The report follows a basic structure, but the progression of ideas is somewhat disjointed. While there is an attempt to group information, the transitions between sentences are abrupt. To improve, use a wider variety of cohesive devices (e.g., 'Furthermore', 'Regarding', 'In terms of') to link your observations more smoothly. Additionally, ensure that each paragraph has a clear central topic to help the reader follow your logic effortlessly.

Lexical Resource

The vocabulary used is somewhat limited and occasionally inaccurate. For example, phrases like 'quantity of hours which individuals in teen age devoted in Internet' and 'no one of values' are unnatural and imprecise. Try to use more academic collocations, such as 'the amount of time spent on,' 'adolescents' engagement with,' or 'a significant rise in.' Avoid repetitive phrasing and aim for more sophisticated synonyms for 'increase' and 'decrease'. Boost vocabulary complexity to elevate the overall score.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

There are frequent grammatical errors that occasionally impede clarity. Issues with preposition usage (e.g., 'devoted in Internet' instead of 'devoted to the Internet'), article usage (e.g., 'the Social media'), and sentence structure (e.g., 'The hours per week which had been passed on entertainment') are prevalent. Focus on mastering complex sentence structures and ensuring subject-verb agreement. Practicing the use of relative clauses and passive voice in a more controlled manner will help improve your accuracy.
