The two pie charts compare the qualifications of staff working in an advertisement business, during the period between 1990 and 2010.

Overall, while there was a downward trend described in First Degree – Science and First Degree – Art qualifications, an opposite tendency was registered in the remaining areas, excepting for Master – Science field. Moreover, Master – Science degrees remained stable over the period.

Looking first at First Degree – Science and First Degree – Art qualifications, the proportion of the former recorded 20% in 1990, which was nearly twice as much as that in 2010. This was followed by a marked deceleration in First Degree – Art qualifications, dropping from 15% in 1990 to only 2% in 2010. Additionally, the percentage of Master – Science remained unchanged at 29% throughout the time.

Turning to the remaining qualifications, 21% in Master – Art was revealed in 1990, as opposed to 12% in PhD – Science and 2% in PhD – Art , respectively. Thereafter, the proportion of these underwent an upward trend, with a pronounced upward shift demonstrated in Ph.D – Science at 30% and a minimal increase of 2% indicated in Master-Art and Ph.D – Art qualifications.

Task Response

The report provides a clear overview and covers the main features of the data, with appropriate comparisons between the two years. The structure is logical, and the overall trends are identified. However, there are some inaccuracies in the data (e.g., Master-Science is stated as 29% instead of 21%, and the figures for Master-Art and PhD-Science in 1990 are misstated). Additionally, some phrasing could be clearer (e.g., 'an opposite tendency was registered in the remaining areas' is vague). To improve, ensure data accuracy and use more precise language to describe changes.

Coherence & Cohesion

The report is well-structured with clear paragraphing and logical progression. The use of cohesive devices such as 'Overall', 'Looking first at', 'Turning to' helps guide the reader smoothly. However, there is a minor lapse in coherence when the writer mentions 'Master - Science remained unchanged at 29%' while the data shows it at 21% in both years; this slight inconsistency in data recall may momentarily distract the reader. Overall, the message is easy to follow.

Lexical Resource

The vocabulary is varied and appropriate for the task, with good use of terms like 'downward trend', 'opposite tendency', 'marked deceleration', and 'pronounced upward shift'. The phrasing is generally natural and sophisticated. However, there is a slight awkwardness in 'an opposite tendency was registered in the remaining areas, excepting for Master - Science field' - 'excepting for' could be more naturally phrased as 'except for'. Additionally, 'the proportion of the former recorded 20%' could be more precise. These minor issues do not detract significantly from the overall lexical quality.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

The report demonstrates a wide range of grammatical structures used accurately and flexibly. Sentences are varied in length and complexity, including passive constructions ('was revealed', 'was registered'), comparative forms ('nearly twice as much as'), and participial phrases ('dropping from...'). Punctuation is correct throughout. There are no grammatical errors, and the writing flows naturally. This meets the highest standard for grammatical range and accuracy.
