Task Response

The report attempts to address the task but contains inaccuracies and some misinterpretations of the data. The overall trends are not clearly identified, and the description of specific age groups contains errors. To improve, focus on accurately representing the data and highlighting the main trends and differences between the two years. Ensure that the percentages mentioned in the report match the values presented in the chart. The report falls short of the required 150 words.

Coherence & Cohesion

The report demonstrates some attempt at organization, but the overall structure is not entirely clear. The flow of information could be improved with more logical connections between sentences and paragraphs. The 'overall' statement is confusing and inaccurate. Consider using more precise language to introduce and link different sections of the report. Paragraphing could be improved to separate distinct ideas.

Lexical Resource

The vocabulary used is relatively basic and lacks the precision needed to accurately describe the data. There are instances of imprecise word choice. For example, using 'charitable organisations' instead of 'donations to charitable organizations' or similar phrasing. Expand your range of vocabulary related to describing trends and data.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

The report contains several grammatical errors that affect clarity. Sentence structures are often simple and repetitive. There are issues with subject-verb agreement, article usage, and prepositional phrases. For example, 'Canadians had higher charitable organisations' is grammatically incorrect. Focus on using a wider range of sentence structures and ensuring grammatical accuracy.
