Task Response

The report attempts to address the task by identifying several changes between the current and future layouts. However, the response is hindered by significant grammatical issues and awkward phrasing that occasionally obscure the meaning. While key features like the expansion of the department store and the addition of a supermarket and cinema are mentioned, the descriptions of locations and the relationships between elements are often unclear. To improve, focus on using more precise spatial language (e.g., 'located in the north-west corner') and ensure that sentence structures are grammatically correct to improve clarity and flow.

Coherence & Cohesion

The organization of ideas is somewhat logical, but the progression is hindered by significant phrasing issues. While you attempt to use cohesive devices like 'Overall', 'Looking at the map in more details', and 'Furthermore', the sentences within the paragraphs are often difficult to follow due to poor structure. To improve, focus on using clearer transition signals and ensuring that each sentence flows logically into the next without repetitive or awkward phrasing.

Lexical Resource

The vocabulary used is limited and often repetitive. There is a heavy reliance on the phrase 'will be made' followed by incorrect verb forms (e.g., 'will be made expanded', 'will be made replacing'). This makes the report sound unnatural. Try to use a wider variety of verbs specifically suited for map descriptions, such as 'redeveloped', 'relocated', 'converted into', 'expanded', or 'replaced by'. Avoid using 'ATM machine' as 'ATM' already stands for Automated Teller Machine.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

Grammatical errors are frequent and significantly impact the clarity of the report. There are issues with tense consistency (mixing past and future inappropriately), word order, and sentence construction (e.g., 'replacing shops will be made supermarket'). Many sentences are fragmented or contain errors in passive voice construction. To improve, practice using the future passive voice (e.g., 'the shops will be replaced by a supermarket') and ensure that your subject-verb agreement is consistent throughout the text.
