The chart gives information about how much time tourists from four countries spent per day for different type of activities during their vacation in Greece in August 2019. The analyses were performed with participating American, Turkish, Chinese and Brazilian tourists.

The most popular activity among Chinese and American tourists was reading. These tourists spend 8 and 5 hours per day; respectively. Brazilian and Turkish tourists, on the other hand, preferred time spent at the beach6 and 5 hours a day; respectively. American tourists spent the same amount of time at the beach as Brazilian and Turkish people spent on reading– 6 hours. Finally, the least popular leisure activity among the four tourist groups was visiting places. While Chinese only spent only 1hour doing this, Americans and Turks explored for 3 hours, and Latin Americans 2 hours each day.

Overall, it can be seen that Chinese and Brazilians allocated a considerable amount of time to one type of activity, while Americans and Turks distributed their time more evenly.

Task Response

The report effectively addresses the task by summarizing the main features and making comparisons between the four tourist groups. The overall structure is clear, with an introduction, body, and conclusion. However, there are some minor inaccuracies and omissions, such as the misstatement that American tourists spent 6 hours at the beach (the data shows 4 hours) and the unclear reference to 'Latin Americans' instead of 'Brazilians'. Additionally, the phrase 'time spent at the beach6' lacks a space. To improve, ensure all data points are accurately reported and maintain consistent terminology. The report would benefit from a more precise comparison of the data across all activities and countries.

Coherence & Cohesion

The report is well-structured with a clear introduction, body, and conclusion. The information flows logically, and comparisons are made effectively. However, the phrase 'The analyses were performed with participating American, Turkish, Chinese and Brazilian tourists' is slightly awkward and could be rephrased for better clarity. Overall, the paragraphing is well-managed, and the message is easy to follow.

Lexical Resource

The vocabulary used is appropriate and generally accurate, with some good collocations like 'allocated a considerable amount of time' and 'distributed their time more evenly.' However, there is some repetition (e.g., 'tourists' used multiple times) and a few imprecise terms (e.g., 'analyses were performed' is overly formal for this context). A wider range of synonyms and more natural phrasing would enhance the lexical resource. Pay attention to vocabulary repetition to improve the overall score.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

The report demonstrates a good range of sentence structures, including complex sentences. However, there are minor errors, such as missing spaces (e.g., 'beach6'), incorrect punctuation (e.g., '8 and 5 hours per day; respectively' should use a comma instead of a semicolon), and a missing article ('different type of activities' should be 'different types of activities'). These issues are minor but prevent the grammar from being fully accurate throughout.
