The pie charts illustrate how much time the youngsters and the elderly spent on several Internet activities in their leisure time.

Overall, the figure for entertainment among young people is higher than old people. In contrast, people between 60-70 years old spend more time booking and purchasing. In addition, the 18-26 age group uses two-thirds of their time relaxing.

Firstly, a far greater percentage of people aged 18 to 26 use the Internet for relaxation than the older age group, at 63% and 41% respectively. Moreover, approximately three times as many younger people play games as the older ones at 18% and 5%.

Furthermore, making purchases and booking among people aged 60-70 accounts for 37%, which is roughly double the amount in the younger group at 17%. Additionally, old people use a quarter of their time buying cinema and travel tickets. Differently, people in both groups spend around 20%-22% of their time finding information such as health data.

Task Response

The report effectively addresses the task by identifying and comparing the main trends between the two age groups. The overview is clear, and the use of grouping (e.g., categorizing activities as 'relaxation' or 'booking and purchasing') demonstrates a high level of data synthesis rather than just listing numbers. To improve, ensure that the categorization of activities is explicitly clear to the reader, as 'relaxation' is an interpretation of the data categories provided. The comparisons are well-structured and use appropriate mathematical language (e.g., 'three times as many', 'roughly double').

Coherence & Cohesion

The report is well-organized and easy to follow. You have used a variety of cohesive devices such as 'Overall', 'In contrast', 'Firstly', and 'Furthermore' to guide the reader through your comparisons. The paragraphing is logical, separating the overview from the specific details. To reach a higher band, try to integrate comparisons more fluidly within sentences rather than relying on a sequence of additive transitions (e.g., 'Moreover', 'Additionally', 'Furthermore'), which can sometimes feel a bit repetitive.

Lexical Resource

You demonstrate a good range of vocabulary to describe the data, such as 'accounts for', 'roughly double', and 'respectively'. You also successfully grouped activities under themes like 'relaxation' and 'entertainment', which shows an ability to synthesize information. To improve, aim for more sophisticated synonyms for common words; for example, instead of 'old people', you could use 'the older demographic' or 'senior citizens', and instead of 'youngsters', you could use 'the younger cohort'.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

The report uses a mix of simple and complex sentence structures effectively. Most sentences are error-free and convey meaning clearly. There are minor issues with article usage (e.g., 'the youngsters') and some slightly awkward phrasing (e.g., 'Differently, people in both groups...'). To improve, focus on the natural use of adverbs to start sentences and ensure that your comparative structures (e.g., 'higher than old people' should be 'higher than that of old people') are grammatically precise.
