The graph illustrates the rate of three types of crimes in England and Wales between 1970 and 2005 years.

Overall, what stands out from graph is that the number of incidents had grown by the 2005. At the same time it is easy to see that while one type of crime had steady increase, other had undergone fluctuations.

For example, speaking about car theft, there is a top on 1995 when the number of incidents reached significant 1.6 from 0.4 in 1970 and after that there was sharp decrease until the end of the period in question when data shows 1.0. Similar situation with burglary had happend in 1980 when the number of insidents became between 0.8 and 1.0. It is the highest point during the period for this type but during the next 20 years was not steady. Diminution was accompanied by slight jump in 1990 after decrease to 0.65 in 1985. Data about burglary shows drop in the 2005 what still higher than in the start with 0.2.

Robbery was the less developed type of crime – there was negligible increase between 1970 and 1995 from 0.0 to approximately 0.1, then there was rising in 2000 then the numbers became 0.1 and it had been kept until 2005.

Task Response

The report addresses the main requirements of the task and identifies the general trends for the three types of crime. However, there are some inaccuracies in the data interpretation and descriptions. For instance, the overview states that the number of incidents grew by 2005, but for two out of the three categories (Car Theft and Burglary), the levels in 2005 were actually lower than their respective peaks. Additionally, some descriptions of the trends are slightly confusing, such as the description of robbery at the end. To improve, ensure that the overview accurately reflects the overall movement of all data sets and focus on making comparisons between the categories more explicit rather than just listing them individually.

Coherence & Cohesion

The report follows a logical structure, but the progression of ideas is sometimes hindered by awkward phrasing and poor cohesive device usage. While you attempt to use transition words like 'Overall', 'For example', and 'At the same time', they are not always used naturally. Some sentences are quite long and convoluted, making it difficult for the reader to follow the comparison between the different crime types. To improve, focus on using clearer linking words and ensure that each paragraph has a distinct, clear purpose. Avoid starting sentences with 'Speaking about...' as this is too informal for an academic report.

Lexical Resource

The vocabulary is somewhat limited and occasionally used incorrectly. For instance, terms like 'there is a top on 1995' or 'the less developed type of crime' are not appropriate in this context. While you attempt to use varied words like 'fluctuations', 'diminution', and 'negligible', they are often used in ways that do not sound natural to a native speaker. Aim to learn more precise academic collocations for describing trends, such as 'reached a peak', 'experienced a decline', or 'remained relatively stable'. Boost vocabulary complexity to elevate the overall score.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

There are frequent grammatical errors throughout the report that impact clarity. Issues include incorrect preposition usage (e.g., 'on 1995' instead of 'in 1995'), errors in verb tense and formation (e.g., 'had happend', 'was not steady', 'there was rising'), and problems with article usage. Sentence structures are often repetitive or grammatically incomplete. To improve, practice using a wider range of complex sentence structures (such as relative clauses) and pay close attention to subject-verb agreement and the correct use of past tenses when describing historical data.
