The bar chart depicts the percentage of expenditure in UAE on Health and Education in the timeline of 1985 to 1993, while line graphs provides data about child mortality together with life expectancy from 1970 to 1992.

Overall, percentage rate of Education increased over the years, reaching the highest number in 1993. However, expenditure rate on Health fluctuated, firstly decreasing and then slightly recovering.

As seen from the bart chart, in 1985, expenditures on Education was 10%, which then approximately increased to 15% in 1990. Following one more marginal increase it ended up with about 16% in 1993, having the highest number in UAE. Meanwhile, the allocated money for Health was nearly 7% in 1985, In 1990, this percentage rate declined to about 7%, however in 1993 it increased to 10% being higher than ots initial value.

According to the line graph, the number for Life expectancy years rose from being 60 in 1970 to 70 in 1992. In contrast, the number for Infant Mortality per 1000 birth decreased from 70 in 1970 to 20 in 1992. Thus, the rate of Life Expectancy reversed its postions with Infant Mortality, having the highest number of 70 which belonged to Infant Mortality initially.

Task Response

The report effectively addresses the task by summarizing the main features of both the bar chart and line graph, and makes relevant comparisons. The overall structure is clear, with an introduction, overview, and detailed paragraphs. However, there are some inaccuracies in the data (e.g., education expenditure in 1985 is stated as 10% instead of approximately 9%, and health expenditure in 1993 is given as 10% instead of approximately 7.5%). Additionally, the description of health expenditure trends is slightly inconsistent (fluctuation described as decreasing then increasing, but the data shows an increase from 1985 to 1990). Minor grammatical errors and awkward phrasing (e.g., 'ots initial value', 'reversed its postions') are present. To improve, ensure data accuracy and refine language for clarity.

Coherence & Cohesion

The report is generally well-organized with a clear overall structure, including an introduction, an overview, and separate paragraphs for the bar chart and line graph. However, there are minor lapses in coherence, such as the abrupt transition between the two data sets and some unclear phrasing (e.g., 'the number for Life expectancy years rose from being 60 in 1970 to 70 in 1992'). The use of cohesive devices is adequate but could be more sophisticated to improve flow. To enhance coherence, consider using clearer topic sentences and smoother transitions between paragraphs.

Lexical Resource

The report uses a reasonable range of vocabulary, including terms like 'expenditure', 'fluctuated', 'marginal increase', and 'reversed its positions'. However, there are some inaccuracies and awkward phrasings, such as 'percentage rate of Education increased' (redundant) and 'having the highest number of 70 which belonged to Infant Mortality initially' (unclear). The lexical choices are generally appropriate but lack the precision and sophistication expected for a higher band score. To improve, aim for more precise and natural collocations (e.g., 'expenditure on education rose steadily' instead of 'percentage rate of Education increased').

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

The report demonstrates a mix of simple and complex sentence structures, but there are several grammatical errors and punctuation issues that affect clarity. Examples include: 'line graphs provides' (subject-verb agreement), 'expenditures on Education was 10%' (subject-verb agreement), 'In 1990, this percentage rate declined to about 7%, however in 1993 it increased' (comma splice), and 'ots initial value' (typo). Punctuation is inconsistent, with missing commas and incorrect capitalization. To improve, focus on subject-verb agreement, correct use of commas, and proofreading for typos. A wider range of grammatical structures, such as conditional clauses or passive voice, could also enhance the report.
