It has two sets of bars, one for males and one for females, representing the average time spent per day on each task. The tasks include cooking/baking/washing up, cleaning/tidying, gardening, pet care, maintenance/DIY jobs, and clothes/cleaning/washing/ironing/sewing. The chart indicates that females spend significantly more time on all tasks except gardening and maintenance/DIY jobs, where males spend slightly more time.

The graph depicts how the household chores are divided in Great Britian by gender.

In overview, females are obliged to do more household tasks, as their minutes are higher than those in males in four out of six sections. The peaked value is females’ number in cooking, baking, washing up, while the lowest value is the data for males in clothes washing, ironing, sewing.

In the first type of task, cooking, baking, washing up, women’s minutes are nearly three times as much as men’s minutes (75 and 30 minutes respectively). A similar pattern is witnessed in the sector care of own children and play (45 minutes for females and 20 minutes for males).

The gaps are more significant in cleaning, house tidying and clothes, washing, ironing, sewing. Women’s data in the former sector (below 60 minutes) is four times more than men’s data (below 15 minutes). Moreover, men only spend approximately 3 minutes per day washing clothes, ironing, sewing, while women spend nearly 8 times more than that (below 25 minutes).

In contrast to other four activities, gardening, pet care and maintenance odd jobs record an opposite trend. Males spend around 50 minutes per day gardening and caring pets, twice more than females’ minutes. This difference is less remarkable in mantenance odd jobs, as the time for women is 10 minutes and for men is more than one third of an hour.

Task Response

The report effectively addresses the task by describing the division of household tasks by gender in Great Britain. It provides an overview and highlights key comparisons, such as females spending more time on most tasks and males on gardening and maintenance. However, there are some inaccuracies and omissions: the report mentions 'care of own children and play,' which is not listed in the task description, and it omits the task 'pet care' in the comparison. Additionally, some data points are imprecise (e.g., 'below 60 minutes' and 'below 15 minutes' for cleaning). The language is generally clear, but there are minor grammatical errors (e.g., 'Great Britian' and 'mantenance'). To improve, ensure all mentioned tasks align with the chart and use more precise data references.

Coherence & Cohesion

The report is generally well-organized with a clear overview and logical grouping of tasks. However, the paragraphing could be more skillfully managed. For instance, the second paragraph introduces an overview and then jumps into specific data, which slightly disrupts the flow. Consider separating the overview into its own paragraph and ensuring each subsequent paragraph focuses on a clear comparison or group of tasks. The use of cohesive devices like 'in contrast' and 'a similar pattern' is effective, but some transitions could be smoother.

Lexical Resource

The vocabulary is adequate and shows some good range, such as 'depicts', 'obliged', 'witnessed', and 'remarkable'. However, there are occasional inaccuracies and less natural phrasing, e.g., 'the peaked value' (should be 'the highest value' or 'the peak'), 'sector care of own children' (this task is not mentioned in the visual description), and 'maintenance odd jobs' (should be 'maintenance/DIY jobs'). To improve, use more precise and natural collocations, and avoid inventing task categories not present in the chart.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

The report demonstrates a good range of grammatical structures, including comparatives ('nearly three times as much as'), and complex sentences. However, there are minor errors and awkward phrasings, such as 'females are obliged to do' (slightly strong wording; 'tend to do' or 'spend more time on' would be more neutral), 'the data for males in clothes washing' (should be 'the time spent by males on clothes washing'), and 'more than one third of an hour' (unclear; better to say 'about 20 minutes'). Punctuation is generally correct. With more careful proofreading, the accuracy can be improved.
