Task Response

The report addresses the task by describing the main features of the chart and making some comparisons. However, there are several inaccuracies in the data (e.g., burglary perceived 2009/10 is given as 16% instead of 15.5%, and violent crime actual figures are misreported). Additionally, the organization is somewhat unclear, with some sentences lacking clarity and precision. To improve, ensure that all data points are accurately reported and that the report is logically structured, perhaps by grouping similar crime types and clearly comparing perceived versus actual figures for each. Also, avoid vague statements and ensure that the overall trend is clearly summarized. The report falls short of the required 150 words.

Coherence & Cohesion

The report has a clear structure with an introduction, an overview, and body paragraphs. However, the flow is sometimes disrupted by awkward phrasing and unclear referencing (e.g., 'the lowest figure over the period' is vague). The paragraphing is acceptable, but the organization could be improved by grouping data more logically and using clearer cohesive devices to link ideas.

Lexical Resource

The vocabulary is adequate for the task, with some good attempts at paraphrasing (e.g., 'perceived danger and actual likelihood'). However, there are inaccuracies and awkward expressions (e.g., 'recorded for the lowest proportion', 'dominated the figures', 'little different'). The range of vocabulary is limited, and more precise and varied language would enhance the report.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

There are several grammatical errors and punctuation issues that affect clarity (e.g., missing commas, incorrect verb forms, and subject-verb agreement problems). The sentence structures are mostly simple, with limited use of complex constructions. To improve, focus on accurate punctuation, subject-verb agreement, and using a wider range of grammatical structures with control.
