The provided statistic depicts the number of shops that are newly open and close, spanning from 2011 to 2018. Overall, both sides have been experienced down trend. Opening shops stood at nearly 9,000 at beginning, then went down to merely a third from at the end. Other side, closing houses also occurred down trend with an erratic pattern. Furthermore, I would describe in subsequent paragraph below.

At the beginning, opening shops reached 9,000 in 2011, then experiencing fluctuation, from 2012 dramatically decreased to 4,000; and went up to 6,000 in 2014. Afterwards, it sharply decreased to 4,000 in 2015. Futhermore, it steadily moved until 2017; and finally reached 3,000 opening shops in 2018.

For the closure shops, it has just above 6,000 in 2011, and experiencing fluctuation until in 2015, it decreased shraply to beneath 1,000. However, the trend was reveresed, which increased to roughly 5,000 in 2016 and steadily consistent until 2018, just added around 100 closure shops.

Task Response

The report addresses the task, but there are inaccuracies in the data reported and some issues with the overall description of trends. To improve, focus on accurately representing the data from the graph and providing a clearer, more concise overview of the main trends. Also, pay attention to the accuracy of the numbers you are reporting.

Coherence & Cohesion

The report demonstrates an attempt to organize the information into paragraphs, but the flow of ideas is sometimes disrupted by abrupt transitions and a lack of clear connections between sentences. The introduction and overview could be more concise and focused. Consider using cohesive devices more effectively to guide the reader through the data and highlight key trends. For example, using phrases like 'In contrast' or 'Similarly' can improve the logical flow.

Lexical Resource

The vocabulary used is somewhat limited and lacks precision. While there are attempts to use descriptive language, such as 'dramatically decreased' and 'sharply decreased,' the range of vocabulary could be expanded to provide a more nuanced description of the data. Consider using synonyms and more specific terms to describe the changes and trends observed in the graph. For instance, instead of repeatedly using 'decreased,' try words like 'declined,' 'diminished,' or 'plummeted,' depending on the rate of change. Boost vocabulary complexity to elevate the overall score.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

The report contains several grammatical errors that affect clarity. There are issues with verb tense consistency, subject-verb agreement, and article usage. Sentence structure is also somewhat basic, which limits the complexity of the analysis. To improve, focus on proofreading carefully for grammatical errors and practicing a wider range of sentence structures. For example, try incorporating more complex sentences with subordinate clauses to express relationships between different data points.
