Task Response

The report attempts to address the task by providing an overview and some data, but it contains significant inaccuracies and omissions. Key figures are misreported (e.g., 1991 is stated as 48% instead of approximately 38%, and 2011 as 45% instead of 35%), and the initial data for 1918 is incorrectly described as the minimum. The overall trend is vaguely described, and comparisons are limited. To improve, ensure accurate data representation, clearly identify the main trends (e.g., overall increase with fluctuations), and make precise comparisons between years. Also, proofread for spelling and grammatical errors.

Coherence & Cohesion

The report has a clear overall structure with an introduction, an overview, and two body paragraphs, but the flow is disrupted by frequent errors and unclear referencing. The overview is vague and does not clearly present the main trends. The body paragraphs lack clear topic sentences and the progression of ideas is sometimes confusing. Use a range of cohesive devices (e.g., 'in contrast', 'similarly', 'while') to link ideas more smoothly, and ensure each paragraph focuses on a clear set of data points.

Lexical Resource

The vocabulary used is limited and repetitive, with some inappropriate word choices (e.g., 'tend' instead of 'trend', 'format' instead of 'form', 'minimum' instead of 'lowest'). There are also spelling errors (e.g., 'accomodation', 'subsiquent', 'dramattically', 'Simaltaneously'). To improve, expand your range of vocabulary related to describing trends (e.g., 'fluctuate', 'peak', 'decline', 'plateau') and use precise terms for data (e.g., 'approximately', 'just over', 'nearly'). Ensure correct spelling and word forms.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

The report contains numerous grammatical errors and punctuation issues that significantly affect clarity. There are subject-verb agreement errors (e.g., 'it it doubelled'), incorrect verb forms (e.g., 'rneted', 'reaches'), and missing or misused articles. Sentence structures are often incomplete or run-on. To improve, practice writing clear, simple sentences with correct verb tenses and subject-verb agreement. Review punctuation rules, especially comma usage, and proofread your work to eliminate basic errors.
