Task Response

The report effectively addresses the task by describing the main features of the graph and making comparisons. The overall trend is identified, and key data points are mentioned. However, there are some inaccuracies in province names (e.g., 'Aberta' instead of 'Alberta', 'Qurbac' instead of 'Quebec') and minor data errors (e.g., Alberta's 2006 value is stated as 'a slight over 4%' but should be 11%). The report could be improved by ensuring correct spelling of provinces and more precise data reporting. Additionally, the structure could be clearer, with a more logical flow between paragraphs.

Coherence & Cohesion

The report has a clear overall structure with an introduction, an overview, and a detailed body. However, the cohesion is somewhat inconsistent. The use of linking words and phrases is basic, and some sentences feel disconnected. For example, the transition between the overview and the detailed description could be smoother. To improve, use a wider range of cohesive devices (e.g., 'in contrast', 'similarly', 'notably') and ensure each paragraph flows logically into the next. Paragraphing is present but could be more skillfully managed to separate key trends and comparisons.

Lexical Resource

The vocabulary is adequate but limited and repetitive. There are several spelling errors (e.g., 'universites' for 'universities', 'Aberta' for 'Alberta', 'Niew Brunswick' for 'New Brunswick', 'Qurbac' for 'Quebec', 'labrador' for 'Labrador') and some awkward phrasing (e.g., 'comprises of' should be 'comprising' or 'consisting of'). The range of words used to describe changes is narrow (e.g., 'highest', 'lowest', 'same figures'). To improve, use more precise and varied vocabulary (e.g., 'experienced a rise', 'remained stable', 'saw a significant increase') and ensure correct spelling of proper nouns.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

The report uses a mix of simple and complex sentence structures, but there are several grammatical errors and punctuation issues. For example, 'the number of international students in New Brunswick was the highest over a 7-year period' is correct, but 'comprises of' is incorrect (should be 'comprise' or 'consist of'). Also, 'a slight over 4%' should be 'slightly over 4%'. Punctuation is sometimes missing or misused (e.g., missing commas in lists). To improve, focus on subject-verb agreement, correct use of prepositions, and accurate comparative forms. Using a wider range of grammatical structures, such as relative clauses and passive voice, would also enhance the report.
