Task Response

The report adequately covers the main features of the graph, providing a general overview of the reasons for friending and unfriending on social media. There is a clear attempt to highlight key trends and make comparisons. To improve, focus on providing more precise data references and ensuring accuracy in the reported percentages. Also, consider structuring the report with a clearer distinction between the 'friending' and 'unfriending' sections for better organization.

Coherence & Cohesion

The report provides a general overview of the data but lacks clear organization and transitions between ideas. The structure could be improved by grouping reasons for friending and unfriending into separate paragraphs with clear topic sentences. Use cohesive devices (e.g., 'in contrast,' 'similarly,' 'however') to link ideas and improve the flow of the report.

Lexical Resource

The vocabulary is adequate but could be more precise and varied. For example, instead of repeatedly using 'reasons,' consider synonyms like 'factors,' 'causes,' or 'motivations.' Use more specific language to describe the data, such as 'the majority,' 'a significant proportion,' or 'a minority.' Avoid informal language and aim for a more academic tone.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

The report contains grammatical errors and phrasing issues that affect clarity. Pay attention to subject-verb agreement, correct tense usage, and proper sentence structure. For example, sentences like 'Reasons in which people choose to unfriend results in 55 percent turning up to offensive comments' need restructuring for better grammatical accuracy. Proofread carefully to identify and correct these errors.
