The chart illustrates how many appliances were sold in an electronic shop in Ghana between 1965 and 2000. Overall, there was an increase in the sales of all appliances except for telephones which had relatively the same figure by the end of the period. In each of the vears, the number of refrigerators purchased was the highest.

Refrigerator sales started with about 740 units in 1965, and despite slight dips leading up to 1975 and 1990, they increased throughout the period to finish at around 990. Around 390 washing machines were purchased in 1965, and this rose to about 580 in 1975. From then, it fluctuated between roughly 590 and 520 until the final year when it grew to approximately 660.

Telephone sales started at around 400 before fluctuating between this figure and 300 until 1995 when a final increase brought it up to just over 400 in 2000. Meanwhile, television purchases, which were the lowest of all the appliances each year, started at about 50 after which they increased to slightly over 200 in 1990 and remained at this level until the end.

Task Response

The report addresses the task and provides an overview, but it contains significant inaccuracies in the data. For example, the starting figures for refrigerators, washing machines, telephones, and televisions are incorrect, and the trends described do not match the visual description. The report also incorrectly states that telephones had relatively the same figure by the end, whereas they actually increased. To improve, ensure that data is accurately reported and that the overview correctly reflects the main trends. Focus on selecting key features and making accurate comparisons.

Coherence & Cohesion

The report is well-organized with a clear introduction and body paragraphs. The overall trend is presented, and the data is grouped logically. However, the paragraphing could be improved by separating the discussion of each appliance more clearly, and the use of cohesive devices is sometimes repetitive (e.g., 'started with', 'started at'). Minor lapses in coherence are present, such as the abrupt shift from refrigerators to washing machines without a clear transition.

Lexical Resource

The vocabulary is generally appropriate and accurate, with some good use of synonyms (e.g., 'purchased', 'bought', 'sales'). However, there is some repetition of words like 'started' and 'increased', and the range of vocabulary is not fully flexible. Some phrases are slightly informal or imprecise (e.g., 'slight dips', 'relatively the same figure'), and the report could benefit from more sophisticated lexical choices to describe trends and comparisons.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

The grammar is largely accurate with a good range of structures, including complex sentences and appropriate use of tenses. There are no significant errors, and punctuation is correct. However, there is a minor typo ('vears' for 'years') and a few instances where sentence structures could be more varied. Overall, the grammar is controlled and does not impede understanding.
