Image for topic: The diagrams below show the plan of a small school in 1980 and in 2010.

Our system will evaluate the answer based on this AI-generated description.

The image presents two ground floor plans of a university department for 1980 and 2010. The 1980 plan features a main building with a southern main entrance, a central corridor, rooms S1 and S2 to the west, and an Office, room S3, and a Library to the east; an area with trees is located to the building's east. The 2010 plan shows the main building expanded to include rooms S4 (west) and S5 (east), resulting in west-side rooms S1, S2, and S4, and east-side rooms Office, S3, and S5. The former tree area is replaced by a car park and a new separate building containing the relocated Library and a new IT Centre.

Given the complexity of the image, the above description may not be entirely accurate.

The two maps show the changes that took place on the ground floor of a university department between 1980 and 2010.

Overall, it is clear that the department became much bigger over this period. The trees and plants that were there in 1980 were removed, and new facilities such as a car park and an IT centre were added.

In 1980, the building had three sections, which were S1, S2 and S3. There was a library and an office in the middle of the building, next to the main entrance. The main entrance led to a road in the south. On the east side of the building, there was a large green area with many trees and plants.

By 2010, the green area had disappeared. Two new sections, S4 and S5, were built at the top of the building, so there were five sections in total. The office stayed near the main entrance, but the library was moved to a new building on the east side. Next to the library, a new IT centre was built. A car park was also added in the south-east, where the trees used to be.

Task Response

The report fully satisfies the requirements of the task. It provides a clear overview of the main changes, including the expansion of the building and the replacement of green space with new facilities. The description of the specific changes in room numbers, the relocation of the library, and the addition of the IT centre and car park is accurate and well-organized. The progression from the 1980 layout to the 2010 layout is logical and easy to follow.

Coherence & Cohesion

The report is exceptionally well-organized. The progression from the introduction to the overview, and then through the chronological comparison, is logical and effortless to follow. Paragraphing is used effectively to separate the description of the two different time periods, and cohesive devices are used naturally to link ideas without being repetitive or intrusive.

Lexical Resource

The vocabulary used is precise, appropriate, and varied. Terms such as 'relocated', 'disappeared', and 'expanded' (implied by context) demonstrate a strong command of lexical features. The student successfully uses spatial language (e.g., 'on the east side', 'in the south-east') to describe the layout accurately and naturally. Boost vocabulary complexity to elevate the overall score.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

The report demonstrates a wide range of grammatical structures with full flexibility and control. The use of different tenses (past simple for 1980 and past perfect/past simple for changes by 2010) is handled perfectly. Punctuation is accurate throughout, and there are no noticeable errors in sentence construction.
