Task Response

The report attempts to address the task but contains several inaccuracies and omissions. It misidentifies the chart type as a line graph, and the data values are significantly incorrect (e.g., London 2009 is stated as 600 instead of 400, and 2014 as 1600 instead of 1500). It also incorrectly states that Singapore experienced a decline, whereas the visual description indicates an increase. Additionally, the report omits several cities (Dubai, Sydney, Los Angeles, Miami) and does not provide a clear overview of the overall trend. To improve, ensure the chart type is correctly identified, accurately report the data, include all relevant categories, and provide a clear summary of the main trends.

Coherence & Cohesion

The report has a logical structure with an introduction, overview, and body paragraphs, but the flow is disrupted by unclear referencing and abrupt transitions. For example, the phrase 'Starting with London city' is informal, and the comparison between New York's two periods is confusing. The use of cohesive devices is limited, and some sentences are long and run-on, making the message harder to follow. To improve, use clearer paragraphing, ensure each paragraph has a clear central idea, and employ a range of linking words and referencing to enhance coherence.

Lexical Resource

The vocabulary is adequate but limited in range and precision. There are inaccuracies such as 'houses that worth' and 'house sales went down' which are not natural. The report uses repetitive phrases like 'house sales' and 'experienced a growth' without variation. To improve, use a wider range of synonyms (e.g., 'properties', 'transactions', 'increased', 'rose', 'surged') and more precise terms (e.g., 'approximately', 'roughly', 'just over'). Also, avoid informal expressions like 'made up the highest sales' and use more formal academic language. Boost vocabulary complexity to elevate the overall score.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

The report contains numerous grammatical errors and punctuation issues that affect clarity. Examples include 'houses that worth' (missing verb), 'there is a growth on the number' (incorrect preposition), 'the houses sales was' (subject-verb agreement), and 'there was increase on the houses sales in by approximately' (confusing structure). The range of grammatical structures is limited, with frequent use of simple sentences and errors in complex structures. To improve, focus on subject-verb agreement, correct use of prepositions, and sentence structure. Practice using a variety of sentence types, including complex and compound sentences, and proofread to eliminate basic errors.
