Band 5+: The charts below show information on residential water use in 1988 and 2008.

The report addresses the main trends and provides a comparison between the two years, which is required for Task Achievement. However, there are some inaccuracies and inconsistencies that affect the quality of the response. For instance, the report mentions '1998' in the third paragraph, whereas the data provided is for 1988. Additionally, the overview contains a factual error by stating that the bathroom had the largest proportion in both years; while this is true for 2008, in 1988 the kitchen was actually the smallest, and the overview should more accurately reflect the shifting dominance of the kitchen. To improve, ensure that all dates and figures are double-checked for accuracy. Work on refining the overview to capture the most significant changes (such as the rise of kitchen usage and the fall of garden usage) more precisely. Improving grammatical accuracy, particularly regarding subject-verb agreement (e.g., 'bathroom have' should be 'bathrooms had' or 'the bathroom had') and tense consistency, will also help elevate the report.

The report follows a logical structure, with a clear introduction, overview, and two body paragraphs organized by year. However, there are some issues with cohesion. The transition between ideas is sometimes abrupt, and there are minor inaccuracies in the data presentation (e.g., mentioning 1998 instead of 1988). To improve, ensure that all dates are accurate and use a wider variety of cohesive devices to link sentences more smoothly.

The vocabulary used is adequate for describing trends (e.g., 'accounted for', 'declined', 'rose slightly', 'decreased sharply'). However, there are several spelling errors ('perpective', 'reperseting') and some awkward phrasing ('use of water on residential', 'proportion of uses water'). Aim to use more precise collocations and ensure that word forms (noun vs. verb) are used correctly to enhance the sophistication of your writing.

The report attempts a variety of structures, but frequent grammatical errors are present. There are issues with subject-verb agreement ('bathroom have', 'kitchen use', 'usage... decrease'), tense consistency ('usage experience'), and preposition usage ('at 25%' vs 'to 25%'). To improve, focus on mastering basic subject-verb agreement and the correct use of past tenses when describing historical data. Pay close attention to the distinction between 'increased to' (the final value) and 'increased by' (the amount of change).
