Task Response

The report effectively identifies the main trends and provides a clear overview of the data. It successfully compares the two years and highlights key similarities and differences. However, there are some inaccuracies in the data reporting compared to the provided description (for example, stating clothing fell to 5% when the description says 11%, and stating transport rose to 9% when the description says it fell to 10%). To improve, ensure closer attention to the specific figures provided to maintain high levels of accuracy in comparisons.

Coherence & Cohesion

The report is well-organized and easy to follow. The use of cohesive devices such as 'Overall', 'Firstly', 'Secondly', and 'In contrast' helps guide the reader through the comparison. To reach a higher band, consider using more sophisticated transitions that link the two time periods more fluidly rather than treating them as two separate lists (e.g., using comparative structures within the same sentence to highlight changes directly).

Lexical Resource

The vocabulary used is appropriate and accurate, with good use of verbs like 'accounted for', 'represented', and 'remained unchanged'. There is a good range of terms to describe proportions. To improve, you could incorporate more varied synonyms for 'proportion' (e.g., 'percentage', 'share', 'portion') and more nuanced adverbs to describe the degree of change.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

The report demonstrates a high level of grammatical accuracy. The structures used are varied, including simple, compound, and complex sentences. Punctuation is used correctly throughout, and there are no noticeable errors that impede communication. The control over tense is also excellent, appropriately using the past tense to describe historical data.
