Task Response

The report identifies some main features and makes some comparisons, but there are inaccuracies and omissions. The organization is present but could be improved. To improve, ensure accuracy in reporting data and provide a more comprehensive overview of the changes between the two years, highlighting both increases and decreases in expenditure across all categories. The report falls short of the required 150 words.

Coherence & Cohesion

The report lacks clear organization and logical flow. The overview is weak, and the body paragraphs jump between details without clear connections. Improve the structure by grouping related information and using transition words to guide the reader. For example, discuss the categories with the most significant changes together, and use phrases like 'In contrast' or 'Similarly' to show relationships between the data.

Lexical Resource

The vocabulary is basic and repetitive. There is limited use of synonyms or more precise language to describe the data. Expand your vocabulary related to trends and comparisons (e.g., 'increased significantly,' 'remained stable,' 'a marginal decrease'). Also, avoid informal language. Boost vocabulary complexity to elevate the overall score.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

The report contains numerous grammatical errors, including incorrect verb tenses ('demonstartes'), subject-verb agreement issues ('welfare which was 24%'), and awkward phrasing ('others that lasted 19%'). Sentence structure is often simple and lacks complexity. Focus on improving your understanding of basic grammar rules and practice writing more complex sentences using a variety of structures.
