Task Response

The report contains several fundamental errors that impact the task achievement. First, the report incorrectly identifies the visual as a 'line graph' and refers to the locations as 'countries' instead of 'cities'. Second, the data reported does not align well with the provided visual description, and the comparisons are often confusing or logically unclear (e.g., using 'before' and 'after' to describe data points in a non-sequential category). To improve, ensure you accurately identify the type of chart and the subject matter, and focus on grouping data logically to highlight trends and comparisons between the two years.

Coherence & Cohesion

The report follows a basic structure, but the progression of ideas is somewhat repetitive and mechanical. The use of cohesive devices like 'Moreover', 'Additionally', and 'Furthermore' is frequent but often feels forced and does not always aid the logical flow of the comparison. To improve, try to group data more logically (e.g., by cities that increased vs. cities that decreased) rather than simply listing figures. Avoid using 'before' and 'after' to describe data points, as these terms imply a temporal sequence that is not present in a comparison of different cities.

Lexical Resource

There are significant inaccuracies in word choice that affect the clarity of the report. Most notably, the report refers to '6 countries' instead of '6 cities', which is a major factual error in description. The vocabulary used to describe changes and comparisons is quite limited and repetitive (e.g., 'accounted for', 'was at'). To improve, use a wider variety of verbs and nouns to describe data, such as 'reached', 'stood at', 'witnessed a decline', or 'experienced an increase'. Ensure that the terminology used (like 'proportion' vs 'percentage') is applied accurately.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

The report relies heavily on simple sentence structures, which limits the grammatical range. There are several awkward constructions, such as 'the percentage was in Sydney at around 78' and 'the smallest percentage was Darwin', which lack necessary prepositions or verbs (e.g., 'the smallest percentage was seen in Darwin'). Work on using complex sentence structures, such as relative clauses ('...Sydney, which stood at 78%...') and subordinating conjunctions, to create a more sophisticated and fluid writing style.
