Task Response

The report attempts to address the task by describing the main features of the chart and making some comparisons. However, there are several inaccuracies and misinterpretations. For instance, the statement that 'women had always had a higher percentage' is incorrect, as men had higher percentages in banking and online shopping. Additionally, the report incorrectly describes trends (e.g., 'grew' and 'become smaller') when the data is static for 2013. Some data points are also misreported (e.g., online shopping percentages are reversed). The report lacks a clear overview and coherent organization, and some phrases are unclear or grammatically awkward. To improve, focus on accurately reporting the data, avoid implying changes over time, and structure the response with a clear introduction, overview, and logically grouped details.

Coherence & Cohesion

The report attempts to organize information but lacks clear progression and logical flow. The introduction is present, but the body paragraphs are not well-structured, and the comparison between categories is confusing. The use of cohesive devices is limited and sometimes inaccurate (e.g., 'Of particular note is...', 'The smallest rose of the three.'). The conclusion is weak and repetitive. To improve, plan a clear structure: introduce the chart, present an overview, then describe and compare the data in a logical order, using appropriate linking words and referencing.

Lexical Resource

The vocabulary is basic and repetitive, with limited range. There are awkward and unclear phrases (e.g., 'the type of internet that grew', 'The smallest rose of the three', 'two types of work become smaller'). The report lacks precise and varied vocabulary for describing trends and comparisons. To improve, use a wider range of synonyms and precise terms (e.g., 'slightly higher', 'notably', 'in contrast', 'whereas'), and avoid informal or vague expressions. Boost vocabulary complexity to elevate the overall score.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

The report contains numerous grammatical errors and awkward phrasing that impede understanding. There are issues with subject-verb agreement, tense consistency, and sentence structure (e.g., 'the women had always had a higher percentage', 'Banking and online shopping are smaller percentages than other internet', 'Online shopping fell from 66% men to 73% women'). Punctuation is also problematic. To improve, focus on writing clear, grammatically correct sentences, and proofread carefully. Use a variety of sentence structures, but ensure accuracy.
