Task Response

The report effectively addresses the task by comparing housing preferences across three cities. The overall trend is identified, and key data points are presented. However, there are some inaccuracies in the data (e.g., flats in London stated as 58% instead of 55%, detached houses in Cambridge as 35% instead of 20%). Additionally, the description of terraced houses and semi-detached houses contains minor errors. To improve, ensure data accuracy and consider a more precise summary of the main features. The report falls short of the required 150 words.

Coherence & Cohesion

The report is well-structured with clear paragraphing and logical progression. The overview effectively summarizes key trends, and the body paragraphs provide detailed comparisons. Cohesive devices are used naturally and appropriately.
