The bar chart illustrates the statistics about the age of women in Australia who gave birth to their first child over three periods.

Broadly speaking, the percentages vary widely per year; it is particularly evident in the first, second, fourth and fifth categories of women that were described as ‘Under 19′, ’19-24′, ’30-34′ and ’34-39’. However, other two categories maintained either almost the same indicator or periodically increased.

The first category in the first period was operating approximately over 30%, while women aged 19-24 significantly dominated over all other women in the first period. Indications of women aged 25-30 were slightly above than the first category, simultaneously while women at the ages from 30 to over 40s fluctuated around 3 to 10 percentages. By 1986, we can notice that the second category lowered to 30%, women aged under 19 decreased to 20% from 30%. Women around 25-30s faced growth to 50% from fluctuating around 40%, while other categories rose slightly or stayed constant.

By the latest period, the general numbers slightly stabilised visually in the chart. Women aged 30-34 experienced a huge growth of numbers, while categories from the first to third, instead, lost the percentages. Women aged between 34 and 39 steadily increased the statistics, however, women aged over 40s steadily maintained percentages around 3 to 5 over all three periods.

Task Response

The report covers the main trends and makes relevant comparisons, but there are some areas for improvement. The organization is generally clear, but could benefit from a more structured approach, perhaps grouping the age categories into broader groups. While the report identifies key features, it could benefit from more specific data references to support the observations. The language is generally accurate, but there are some instances of awkward phrasing and imprecise vocabulary. To improve, focus on structuring the report more logically, providing more specific data, and refining the language for clarity and precision.

Coherence & Cohesion

The report demonstrates an adequate attempt to organize the information, but the flow is somewhat disrupted by abrupt transitions and a lack of clear connections between ideas. The use of cohesive devices is present but not always effective in creating a smooth and logical progression. Paragraphing is generally acceptable, but could be improved to better group related information and enhance readability. To improve coherence and cohesion, focus on using more transitional phrases to link sentences and paragraphs, and ensure that each paragraph has a clear topic and focus.

Lexical Resource

The report demonstrates a sufficient range of vocabulary to convey the main points of the chart, but there is some reliance on simpler terms and phrases. While the vocabulary is generally accurate, there are instances where more precise or sophisticated language could be used to enhance the description. To improve lexical resource, try to incorporate a wider range of vocabulary related to trends, changes, and comparisons, and focus on using more specific and descriptive language to convey the information.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

The report demonstrates a reasonable command of grammar, but there are several errors that affect clarity and accuracy. While a variety of sentence structures are used, there are instances of awkward phrasing, incorrect verb tenses, and subject-verb agreement issues. Punctuation is generally accurate, but there are some inconsistencies. To improve grammatical range and accuracy, focus on reviewing and correcting common errors, and practice using a wider range of sentence structures with greater precision.
