As regards , people aged 55 and over, 15-24 and younger individuals with age 0-14 , on the other hand will show a gradual decrease, over the 30 years period.

Task Response

The report attempts to address the task but contains significant inaccuracies and inconsistencies with the provided data. It misidentifies the chart type (calling it a bar chart instead of a line graph) and misreports key figures, such as the starting percentage for the 25-54 age group and the trends for other age groups. The overall trend is inaccurately described, and some statements are contradictory (e.g., mentioning an increase for younger inhabitants followed by a drop). To improve, ensure that the report accurately reflects the visual information, correctly identifies the chart type, and clearly summarizes the main trends and comparisons without introducing unsupported data.

Coherence & Cohesion

The report has a clear overall structure with an introduction and body paragraphs, but the flow is sometimes disrupted by unclear referencing and abrupt transitions. For example, the phrase 'adults, 25 from 54' is confusing, and the shift from discussing the 25-54 age group to other age groups is not smooth. The use of cohesive devices is limited and sometimes inaccurate (e.g., 'As regards ,' and 'on the other hand' are used incorrectly). To improve, ensure each paragraph has a clear central topic and use a range of linking words accurately to guide the reader. Also, avoid introducing new ideas without clear connection to the previous ones.

Lexical Resource

The report uses some appropriate vocabulary for describing trends (e.g., 'steady upward trend', 'gradual decline', 'considerable upward'), but there are issues with word choice and phrasing. For instance, 'population growth of adults, 25 from 54' is awkward, and 'considerable upward' should be 'considerable increase' or 'upward trend'. The range of vocabulary is limited, and some expressions are repetitive. To improve, use a wider variety of precise terms (e.g., 'proportion', 'percentage', 'witness', 'experience') and ensure collocations are correct. Also, avoid informal language like 'it's interesting to note' in academic writing.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

The report contains several grammatical errors and punctuation issues that affect clarity. For example, 'adults, 25 from 54' is incorrect, 'wich' should be 'which', and 'their numbers is expected' should be 'their numbers are expected'. There are also issues with tense consistency (e.g., 'started' vs. 'will be') and sentence structure (e.g., 'this will be followed by a considerable upward to 45%' is ungrammatical). To improve, focus on subject-verb agreement, correct use of articles, and consistent use of future tense for predictions. Also, ensure sentences are complete and well-structured, and use commas and periods correctly.
