Task Response

The report attempts to address the task but suffers from significant logical inconsistencies and inaccuracies in data interpretation. The overview claims there was a 'noticeable decrease in number of goods' in 2004, which is a confusing way to describe a comparison between two years, and the subsequent paragraphs repeat this idea without clearly highlighting the specific trends (such as the massive surge in mobile phone and computer ownership). Additionally, there are contradictions in the text; for example, the report states there was 'no sudden decline' in 2008, yet the data shows a decline in CD player ownership. To improve, focus on grouping the data logically (e.g., items that increased vs. items that decreased) and ensure that your comparisons between the two years are clear and mathematically sound.

Coherence & Cohesion

The organization of ideas is somewhat repetitive and lacks a logical progression. The report struggles to distinguish between the overview and the detailed body paragraphs. There is a lack of effective cohesive devices, and the transition between sentences is often abrupt. To improve, ensure that each paragraph has a clear purpose: an introduction, a summary of main trends (overview), and specific detail paragraphs. Avoid repeating the same comparisons in different ways without adding new information.

Lexical Resource

The vocabulary used is quite limited and often repetitive (e.g., using 'items' and 'goods' frequently). There are several instances of imprecise word choices, such as 'maintenance of upward momentum' or 'highest item,' which are not natural in a data report context. Instead of 'highest item,' use 'the most common household item.' Try to incorporate more varied synonyms for trends, such as 'surged,' 'remained stable,' or 'declined slightly,' to demonstrate a wider range of lexical control.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

Grammatical errors are frequent and occasionally impede the reader's understanding. There are issues with subject-verb agreement, article usage, and sentence structure (e.g., run-on sentences). Punctuation is also inconsistent, particularly with spacing after commas. To improve, focus on mastering complex sentence structures and ensuring that your tense usage is consistent - since the data refers to 2004 and 2008, the past tense should be used throughout the report.
