In 1995, the 15-24 years and 25-39 years percentages were both quite high at 60% and 50% respectively. But in contrast, the 40-54 years and the 55+ years numbers were at their lowest stage. 10 years later, in 2005, all of the groups figures show a 5% increase. then in the next year, the 15-24 and the 25-39 years figures are decreasing, they reached 55% and 50% respectively. Meanwhile, the other two groups had a 5% decrease.

Task Response

The report addresses the task and provides an overview of the main trends, but it contains some inaccuracies and omissions. For instance, it incorrectly states that the 40-54 and 55+ groups decreased in 2015, whereas the data shows they increased. Additionally, the report omits the specific values for the 40-54 and 55+ groups in 2015 and 2025, and the phrase 'the 40-45' is a typo for '40-54'. The structure is generally clear, but the language could be more precise and formal. To improve, ensure all data points are accurately reported and avoid vague expressions like 'the next year' without specifying the year. Also, use more precise vocabulary to describe trends, such as 'fluctuated' and 'steadily increased'.

Coherence & Cohesion

The report has a clear overall structure with an introduction, an overview, and two body paragraphs. However, the flow is sometimes disrupted by awkward phrasing and unclear references (e.g., 'the two group of 15-24 and 25-39 years are the most adept ones'). The overview is present but could be more precise. Paragraphing is adequate, but the second body paragraph mixes years and trends in a way that may confuse the reader. To improve, use clearer topic sentences and ensure each paragraph focuses on a distinct aspect (e.g., one paragraph for younger groups, one for older groups).

Lexical Resource

The report uses a range of vocabulary related to trends (e.g., 'fluctuating', 'rising trend', 'increase', 'decrease', 'peek' [should be 'peak']). However, there are some inaccuracies and informal choices (e.g., 'adept ones', 'at their lowest stage', 'plus 55 years'). The phrasing is sometimes unnatural (e.g., 'the 40-45 and the plus 55 years figures'). To improve, use more precise and formal vocabulary, such as 'the most frequent attendees' instead of 'adept ones', and 'those aged 55 and over' instead of 'plus 55 years'. Also, ensure correct spelling of key terms like 'peak'. Boost vocabulary complexity to elevate the overall score.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

The report demonstrates a reasonable range of sentence structures, including complex sentences. However, there are several grammatical errors and punctuation issues that affect clarity. For example, 'the two group' should be 'the two groups', 'It is clear that' should be 'it is clear that' (capitalization after a comma), and 'then in the next year' should be 'then in the next decade' or 'ten years later'. Also, verb tense consistency is an issue (e.g., 'are decreasing' should be 'decreased'). To improve, proofread for subject-verb agreement, use past tense consistently for past data, and ensure correct punctuation (e.g., commas after introductory phrases).
