The image shows a graph representing the changing rates of crime, specifically burglary, car theft, and robbery (theft from the person), in the inner city from 2003-2012. There are three lines on the graph: a solid line for burglary, a dashed line for car theft, and a dotted line for robbery. The y-axis represents the number of incidences, ranging from 0 to 4000, and the x-axis represents the years from 2003 to 2012. In 2003, burglary had the highest incidence at around 3400, followed by car theft at 2800, and robbery at 1000. By 2012, burglary had decreased to around 2000, car theft to 1600, and robbery to 800. Overall, the graph shows a decrease in all three types of crime over the ten-year period.

The line graph provides information about three crime rates in the inner city of Newport between 2003 and 2012.

Overall, there was a downward trend in burglary, while car theft and robbery witnessed fluctuations. At the start of the period, burglary was the most common crime, whereas at the end of the period, car theft overtook it. Additionally, robbery remained the least common crime.

The burglary rate reached its peak in 2004, then it decreased dramatically from more then 3500 to less than 1500 in 2008. The burglaries then slightly increased in 2009, where the rate was at the same level until the end of the estimated period. On the other hand, car theft went down from 2003 to 2006 and then returned to the same level by 2012. While the number of burglaries and car theft changed considerably, the number of robberies mostly fluctuated.

Task Response

The report adequately covers the main features of the graph, including an overall trend and some specific data points. However, there are a few inaccuracies and omissions. For instance, the statement that car theft overtook burglary by the end of the period is not supported by the data, as burglary remained higher. Additionally, the report mentions a peak in 2004 and a decrease to less than 1500 in 2008, which are not present in the visual description. The report could be improved by providing more accurate data and ensuring that all statements are directly supported by the graph. Also, the report could benefit from more precise comparisons and a clearer structure. The report falls short of the required 150 words.

Coherence & Cohesion

The report is well-organized with a clear introduction, overview, and detailed paragraphs. The progression of ideas is logical, and the use of cohesive devices is effective. However, there are minor lapses in cohesion, such as the transition between the overview and the detailed paragraphs, which could be smoother. Overall, the message is easy to follow.

Lexical Resource

The vocabulary is appropriate and generally accurate, with some good use of synonyms (e.g., 'downward trend', 'fluctuations', 'overtook'). However, there is room for more sophisticated and varied lexical choices. Some phrases are slightly informal or imprecise (e.g., 'more then' should be 'more than', 'estimated period' could be 'period shown'). Overall, the range is adequate but not fully flexible. Boost vocabulary complexity to elevate the overall score.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

The grammar is largely accurate with a good range of structures, including complex sentences. There are minor errors (e.g., 'more then' instead of 'more than', and a missing comma after '2009'), but they do not impede understanding. The report demonstrates strong control of grammar and punctuation.
