The image give information from 2011 report about energy consumption in the UK since 1978 untill 2038.

Overall, people use six types of energy sources, such as petrol and oil, coal, natural gas, nuclear, solar and wind, and hydropower. The graph give chance to analyze all this information.

Petrol and oil are the main energy sources in UK. These sources just increased all this period. Coal is ranked in the second place: start about 16 units and increased by 14 units at the end of period. In addition, natural gas is another energy consumption, which is stable since 2014 about 25 units.

Furthermore, nuclear energy start with 3-4 units. This index totally stable during according period. Also solar and wind used in UK, which is produced by natural soruces. This source’s index start about 3-4 in 1978, finished about 6 in 2038. In addition, hydropower used fewer than the other energy consumptions. It is about 4 and during all years this number stay same.

Task Response

The report addresses the main features of the graph, identifying the key energy sources and providing an overall trend. However, there are several inaccuracies and omissions. For instance, the starting value for coal is incorrectly stated as 16 units, and the description of nuclear energy as 'totally stable' is not entirely accurate given its slight increase. Additionally, the report lacks specific comparisons between the sources and does not clearly distinguish between historical data and projections. To improve, ensure all data points are accurately reported, include more precise figures, and make explicit comparisons between the different energy sources over the period.

Coherence & Cohesion

The report has a clear overall structure with an introduction and a body, but the organization could be improved. The paragraphs are not logically divided, and the flow of information is somewhat disjointed. The use of cohesive devices is limited, and some transitions are abrupt. To improve, consider grouping related information into well-structured paragraphs, using a range of linking words and phrases (e.g., 'in contrast', 'similarly', 'while'), and ensuring each paragraph has a clear central idea.

Lexical Resource

The vocabulary used is adequate but limited in range and precision. There are some inaccuracies and awkward phrasings (e.g., 'give chance to analyze', 'start about', 'stay same'). To improve, use a wider variety of precise terms related to trends (e.g., 'fluctuate', 'remain stable', 'projected to rise'), and ensure word choices are natural and appropriate. Avoid informal or vague expressions.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

The report contains numerous grammatical errors, including subject-verb agreement (e.g., 'The image give', 'The graph give'), incorrect verb forms (e.g., 'start', 'finished'), and issues with articles and prepositions. There is also limited variety in sentence structures. To improve, focus on using a range of complex and compound sentences accurately, and proofread to eliminate basic errors. Pay attention to subject-verb agreement, tense consistency, and correct use of articles.
