Task Response

The report generally addresses the requirements of the task, but there are inaccuracies in the data reported from the pie charts. For example, the report states that achievement at work makes up the largest share for people under 30 at 31%, but the visual description states that traveling (26%) is the top factor for this age group. Similarly, the report mentions that having a good appearance and traveling contribute 18% and 15% respectively, but the visual description states 21% and 26% respectively. These inaccuracies detract from the task achievement. To improve, ensure that the data reported is accurate and reflects the information presented in the pie charts.

Coherence & Cohesion

The report is generally coherent, but the organization could be improved. The overview is somewhat inaccurate and doesn't effectively summarize the key trends. The body paragraphs present data, but the connections between them could be stronger. Consider focusing on the most significant differences and similarities between the two age groups to create a clearer narrative.

Lexical Resource

The vocabulary is adequate but could be more precise and varied. There's some repetition of phrases like 'achievement at work' and 'doing hobbies.' Try to incorporate synonyms or rephrase ideas to demonstrate a wider range of vocabulary. For example, instead of repeatedly using 'achievement at work,' you could use phrases like 'career success' or 'professional accomplishments.'

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

The report contains several grammatical errors and inaccuracies in data reporting. For example, the report states that 'achievement at work is the main source of happiness for both groups,' which is not entirely accurate based on the provided data. Also, the percentages mentioned in the body paragraphs do not always align with the information in the pie charts. Ensure that the data is accurately represented and that sentences are grammatically correct.
