Band 6+: the chart below shows the changes in the amount of coffee exported from three countries between 2002 and 2012

The report addresses the task and provides an overall trend, but it contains several inaccuracies and omissions. For instance, it states that Brazil increased steadily to 20 million kg in 2008, but the data shows it reached 17 million kg in 2008 and then surged to 20 million kg in 2010. It also mentions a dip in Brazil between 2008 and 2010, which is not supported by the data. For Costa Rica, the report says it rose significantly from 2006 to 2012, but the data shows a decline to 6 million kg in 2008, stability in 2010, and then an increase to 11 million kg in 2012. The description of Colombia's trend is also inaccurate: it did not increase for four years initially, and the dip to about 2 million kg is not supported; the data shows a slight drop below 5 million kg in 2006, then a rise to 7 million kg in 2008. To improve, ensure that all key data points are accurately reported and that the trends described align with the visual information. Focus on presenting a clear, accurate overview and supporting details without introducing unsupported fluctuations.

The report has a clear overall structure with an introduction and separate paragraphs for different countries, but the organization could be improved. The first paragraph after the overview mixes information about Brazil and Costa Rica, and the second paragraph about Colombia is somewhat disjointed. The progression of ideas is not always logical, and the use of cohesive devices is limited. To improve, consider grouping information by time periods or by country more clearly, and use a wider range of linking words and phrases to show relationships between data points.

The report uses some appropriate vocabulary for describing trends, such as 'steady increase', 'significant rise', 'dipped noticeably', and 'recovered'. However, there is some repetition and lack of variety in word choice. For example, 'increasing' is used multiple times, and the range of synonyms for 'change' is limited. To improve, use a wider range of precise terms (e.g., 'surge', 'plummet', 'fluctuate', 'plateau') and ensure that the language is natural and accurate. Also, avoid informal or imprecise phrases like 'small dip' and 'hit its own peak' in favor of more formal academic expressions.

The report demonstrates a reasonable range of grammatical structures, including complex sentences and some use of passive voice. However, there are several errors and awkward phrasings that affect clarity. For example, 'When the former witnessed a steady increase... the latter was decreasing' is grammatically awkward, and 'there was a small dip in kilograms in Brazil' is unclear. Additionally, the sentence 'then it was increasing for 4 years' is not precise. To improve, focus on using correct verb tenses (especially past simple vs. past perfect), ensure subject-verb agreement, and revise sentences for clarity and conciseness. Proofreading to eliminate minor errors will enhance accuracy.
