Task Response

The report addresses the task by describing the main trends and making some comparisons between age groups and years. However, there are several inaccuracies and omissions. For instance, the 2010 value for the 25-34 age group is stated as approximately 97%, which is incorrect (it should be around 71%). Additionally, the report does not provide specific data for all age groups in both years, and some statements are vague (e.g., 'similar changes' without details). The overall structure is present, but the language contains errors and informal expressions that affect clarity. To improve, ensure accurate data reporting, include specific figures for each group, and use more precise academic language.

Coherence & Cohesion

The report has a logical structure with an introduction, an overview, and body paragraphs, but the flow is disrupted by frequent punctuation errors (e.g., missing commas, run-on sentences) and awkward phrasing. The overview is present but could be clearer and more precise. Cohesive devices are used sparingly and sometimes incorrectly (e.g., 'While' and 'Moreover' are used inappropriately). To improve, use clear paragraphing, ensure each paragraph has a central topic, and employ a range of linking words accurately to guide the reader smoothly.

Lexical Resource

The report uses some appropriate vocabulary related to trends (e.g., 'increase', 'decline', 'rise'), but there are several inaccuracies and repetitions. For example, 'takes the top lead' and 'took the least lead' are awkward, and 'the olders age' is incorrect. The range of vocabulary is limited, and there is a lack of precise terms for describing data (e.g., 'approximately', 'significant increase'). To improve, expand your vocabulary for describing changes and comparisons, and use more precise and natural collocations (e.g., 'accounted for', 'experienced a rise', 'the highest proportion'). Boost vocabulary complexity to elevate the overall score.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

The report contains numerous grammatical errors, including subject-verb agreement ('Ages 25-34 takes'), incorrect plural forms ('age groups 55+'), and punctuation issues (missing commas, run-on sentences). There are also spelling errors (e.g., 'approximatly', 'happend', 'though out'). The range of sentence structures is limited, with many simple and repetitive patterns. To improve, focus on sentence structure variety, ensure subject-verb agreement, and proofread for punctuation and spelling. Practicing complex sentences with subordinate clauses will also enhance grammatical range.
