The two pie charts compare the proportion of different vehicle used by citizens in 2010 with that in 2020

Overall, car accounted for the largest percentage of the chart in both years, whereas others category remained the smallest figure. Meanwhile, public transport had increasingly been preferred by citizens over time.

In terms of car and public transport, two groups represented the most preferred vehicle choice in both years, with car keeping the first place and public transport in the second place. However, those two groups showed a totally different trend. While the proportion of residents using car fell from 50% in 2010 to 40% in 2020, the figure for public transport increased by 10% from the starting point of 20%.

Turning to the smaller categories, it is evident that both bicycle and walking experienced the most significant change. In 2010, the number of bicycle use only made up 10%, while that in walking was 15%. By 2020, bicycle(15%) was 6 percentage points higher than walking(9%). In contrast, the others category almost unchanged over the time, with 5% in 2010 and 6% in 2020.

Task Response

The report effectively addresses the task by providing a clear overview and making relevant comparisons between the two years. The main features are well-selected, and the data is presented accurately. Minor lapses include a slight awkwardness in phrasing (e.g., 'different vehicle' instead of 'different modes of transportation') and a minor inaccuracy in describing the change in the 'others' category as 'almost unchanged' (it increased by 1 percentage point). However, these do not detract from the overall clarity and coherence. To improve, ensure precise vocabulary and avoid minor grammatical slips.

Coherence & Cohesion

The report is logically organized with a clear overall statement and a division into paragraphs for major and minor categories. However, some cohesive devices are used awkwardly (e.g., 'had increasingly been preferred' and 'almost unchanged over the time'), and the final sentence lacks a clear subject ('the others category almost unchanged' should be 'the others category remained almost unchanged'). The flow is generally smooth, but minor lapses in cohesion are noticeable.

Lexical Resource

The vocabulary is adequate and mostly appropriate for the task, with some good attempts at paraphrasing (e.g., 'accounted for the largest percentage', 'experienced the most significant change'). However, there are some inaccuracies and repetitions: 'vehicle' is used instead of 'modes of transportation', 'the number of bicycle use' is awkward, and 'the starting point' is slightly informal. A wider range of precise vocabulary and more natural collocations would improve the score.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

The report contains a mix of simple and complex structures, but there are several grammatical errors and awkward phrasings that affect clarity. Examples include 'different vehicle used' (should be 'different modes of transportation used'), 'had increasingly been preferred' (tense and word order issues), 'the number of bicycle use' (incorrect noun phrase), and 'almost unchanged over the time' (missing article). Punctuation is mostly correct, but the range of structures is limited and not always controlled. More accurate and varied sentence structures are needed.
