The bar chart illustrates the percentage of grown man smokers in the world on average and in seven different countries: Armenia, Egypt, Lebanon, Bangladesh, Cuba, Mexico and Australia in 2000 and 2015.

Overall, the biggest percentage of adult male smokers was in Armenia, whereas the smallest was in Australia. Also, even though the global trend has seen a clear decrease in smoking between men from 2000 and 2015, Arabic countries, such as Egypt and Lebanon, experienced a slight growth.

In 2000 Bangladesh was second in terms of percentage of male smokers among countries the data is given on, having over 60%. However, over the period of 15 years this number fell dramatically, leading to Bangladesh being at less than 40% in 2015.

In contrast to global tendency, the share of smokers in Egypt and Lebanon grew by around 17% and by approximately 13% accordingly. The country, which percentage remained almost constant during 15 years is Cuba, only dropping by few percentage points.

Task Response

The report covers the main features of the bar chart and makes relevant comparisons. However, there are some inaccuracies in the data reported, such as the claim of growth in Egypt and Lebanon, which actually experienced a decrease. To improve, ensure data accuracy and provide more specific details, including numerical values, to support your observations.

Coherence & Cohesion

The report is generally coherent, but the organization could be improved. The second paragraph provides a good overview, but the subsequent paragraphs lack clear topic sentences and transitions. Grouping countries with similar trends together would enhance coherence. For example, discussing countries with decreasing smoking rates in one paragraph and those with increasing or stable rates in another would improve the flow. The use of cohesive devices is adequate but could be more sophisticated to further link ideas.

Lexical Resource

The report demonstrates a sufficient range of vocabulary to discuss the data. However, there are instances where more precise word choices could enhance the description. For example, instead of 'biggest percentage,' consider using 'highest percentage.' The phrase 'Arabic countries' is not entirely accurate as Bangladesh and Cuba are also included. Using more specific regional or economic groupings could be more appropriate. Overall, the vocabulary is adequate, but refining word choices would elevate the report.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

The report contains several grammatical errors and phrasing issues that affect clarity. For example, 'grown man smokers' should be 'adult male smokers.' The sentence 'even though the global trend has seen a clear decrease in smoking between men from 2000 and 2015, Arabic countries, such as Egypt and Lebanon, experienced a slight growth' is grammatically awkward and could be rephrased for better clarity. Also, 'In contrast to global tendency' should be 'In contrast to the global trend'. The statement about Egypt and Lebanon growing by 17% and 13% is inaccurate based on the provided data. Proofreading carefully for grammatical errors and ensuring accuracy in data representation is crucial.
