The image features a line graph titled "Percentage of People Using Public Libraries at Least Once a Month (1995-2020)", with the y-axis showing "Percentage (%)" from 0 to 50 at intervals of 10, and the x-axis showing "Year" from 1995 to 2020 at 5-year intervals. The legend identifies three demographic categories: "Ages 15-24", "Ages 25-59", and "Ages 60+". Recorded data points for Ages 15-24 are 45% (1995), 40% (2000), 34% (2005), 28% (2010), 23% (2015), and 20% (2020). For Ages 25-59, the values are 30% (1995), 29% (2000), 28% (2005), 27% (2010), 26% (2015), and 25% (2020).

The line graph illustrates the changes in the proportion of library visitors between three age groups in a European country over a 25-year period. Overall, it is clear that the library users’ percentage of 60+ age group experienced a significant growth, while others saw a substantial decline.

At the beginning of the period, the age group with the smallest library visiters’ proportion was people with ages of 60+, with around 15%. Twenty-five year of steady increase meant that by 2020 this figure had risen to around 40% , making it the most library using age group on the chart.

The library using proportion of people with ages 15-24 and 25-59 started at around 45% and 30% in 1995, relatively. After experiencing a sharp decrease, the percentage of library visitors between 15-24 age group reached the lowest point – 20% in 2020. Meanwhile the figure between 25-59 age group fell slowly and stopped with 25%.

Task Response

The report effectively addresses the task by providing an overview and describing the main trends for all three age groups. The data is generally accurate, and the structure is clear. However, there are a few minor lapses: the phrase 'Twenty-five year of steady increase' should be 'Twenty-five years of steady increase,' and 'relatively' should be 'respectively.' Additionally, the report could be slightly more precise in describing the trends (e.g., noting that the 15-24 group experienced a 'steady decline' rather than a 'sharp decrease' throughout). Overall, the response is well-organized and covers the key features, but these small errors and imprecisions prevent it from achieving a higher band.

Coherence & Cohesion

The report has a clear overall structure with an introduction and body paragraphs, and the main trends are presented. However, the flow is sometimes disrupted by awkward phrasing and unclear references (e.g., 'the library users' percentage of 60+ age group', 'the library using proportion of people with ages 15-24 and 25-59'). The final sentence is incomplete and lacks a clear conclusion, which affects the overall coherence. To improve, ensure each paragraph has a clear topic sentence and that the final paragraph is completed to summarize the trends. Use cohesive devices more effectively to link ideas within and between sentences.

Lexical Resource

The report uses some appropriate vocabulary for describing trends (e.g., 'illustrates', 'significant growth', 'substantial decline', 'steady increase', 'sharp decrease'). However, there are several lexical inaccuracies and awkward collocations, such as 'library visiters' proportion' (should be 'proportion of library visitors'), 'people with ages of 60+' (should be 'people aged 60+'), and 'the most library using age group' (should be 'the age group with the highest library usage'). The range of vocabulary is limited, and more precise and varied terms could be used to describe changes (e.g., 'gradual rise', 'dramatic fall'). To improve, expand your vocabulary for describing data and ensure word choice is natural and accurate.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

The report contains several grammatical errors and punctuation issues that affect clarity. For example, 'Twenty-five year of steady increase' should be 'Twenty-five years of steady increase', and 'relatively' is used incorrectly (should be 'respectively'). There are also issues with subject-verb agreement and article usage (e.g., 'the library users' percentage of 60+ age group' should be 'the percentage of library users in the 60+ age group'). The final sentence is incomplete, which is a major grammatical issue. To improve, focus on sentence structure, ensure all sentences are complete, and proofread for common errors such as pluralization and word forms. Using a wider range of complex structures would also enhance the grammatical range.
