Task Response

The report attempts to address the task by providing data for both cities across the months. However, there are significant issues with data accuracy and logical consistency. For example, the overview contains contradictions (stating Perth had the lowest sunshine in September, whereas the data shows it was a relatively high period), and some specific data points are misreported or confused between the two cities. To improve, focus on ensuring that the comparisons are accurate and that the trends described (increases, decreases, or stability) align correctly with the numbers provided in the visual. Additionally, try to group the data more logically to avoid a repetitive list-like structure.

Coherence & Cohesion

The organization of the report is somewhat disorganized, making it difficult for the reader to follow the progression of information. The use of cohesive devices is limited, and the transitions between sentences and ideas are often abrupt. To improve, try to group information logically (e.g., by seasonal trends or by comparing the two cities systematically) and use a wider variety of linking words such as 'In contrast,' 'Similarly,' or 'Following this trend' to connect your ideas more smoothly.

Lexical Resource

The vocabulary used is quite repetitive, particularly the frequent repetition of 'sunshine hour' and 'around.' There are also several instances of incorrect word forms and awkward phrasing (e.g., 'the satble at the same'). To reach a higher band, aim to use synonyms and more varied descriptive language. For example, instead of repeating 'sunshine hours,' you could use 'levels of sunlight,' 'daily sunshine duration,' or 'the amount of sun exposure.' Additionally, work on using precise adjectives and adverbs to describe changes, such as 'fluctuated,' 'remained constant,' or 'peaked at.' Pay attention to vocabulary repetition to improve the overall score.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

There are frequent grammatical errors throughout the report, including issues with subject-verb agreement, article usage, and sentence structure. For example, phrases like 'it was also decreased' and 'sidneys hours was' are grammatically incorrect. There is also a lack of control over complex sentence structures. To improve, focus on mastering basic sentence construction, ensuring correct tense usage (especially when describing trends), and practicing the use of relative clauses to combine ideas more effectively.
