Task Response

The report attempts to address the task by describing the spending categories across the four countries, but it contains significant inaccuracies and irrelevant interpretations (e.g., describing changes as 'increase' or 'decrease' when the data is static for 2009). The structure is somewhat disorganized, and key data points are misreported or omitted. To improve, focus on accurately comparing the given percentages without implying trends over time, and ensure a clearer, more logical organization of information.

Coherence & Cohesion

The report attempts to structure the information by country, but the overall flow is difficult to follow. The introduction is incomplete and the body paragraphs lack clear topic sentences. The use of linking words is limited and sometimes incorrect (e.g., 'Thus', 'To continue', 'More so'). The conclusion is weak and does not summarise the main trends effectively. To improve, use clear paragraphing for each country or category, and employ a range of cohesive devices such as 'in contrast', 'similarly', and 'overall' to guide the reader.

Lexical Resource

The vocabulary is basic and repetitive, with frequent misuse of words (e.g., 'chat' instead of 'chart', 'slide increase', 'continua decrease'). There is limited range and some inappropriate choices (e.g., 'not withstanding'). To improve, learn and use a wider range of precise vocabulary related to describing data, such as 'accounted for', 'represented', 'slightly higher', 'significantly lower', and 'remained stable'. Avoid informal or incorrect terms.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

The report contains numerous grammatical errors, including incorrect article usage ('an decrease'), subject-verb agreement issues ('Canada experience'), and missing or incorrect prepositions. Sentence structures are often incomplete or run-on, and punctuation is inconsistent. To improve, focus on basic sentence construction, ensure subject-verb agreement, and practice using a variety of sentence types (simple, compound, complex). Proofreading for common errors is essential.
