Task Response

The report effectively identifies the main trends and provides a clear overview of the data. It successfully compares the different countries and highlights the most significant changes, such as Italy's growth. However, there are some inconsistencies between the data reported in the body paragraphs and the overview (for example, the overview states Belgium was the leader, but the data in the third paragraph suggests different figures). To improve, ensure that the specific data points mentioned in the overview are perfectly aligned with the detailed descriptions in the body paragraphs to maintain internal consistency.

Coherence & Cohesion

The report is logically organized with a clear introduction, overview, and body paragraphs. The use of cohesive devices such as 'Overall', 'However', 'By contrast', and 'In contrast' helps guide the reader through the comparisons. To improve, ensure that the transitions between sentences within paragraphs are even smoother to avoid a slightly repetitive structure. The grouping of information is effective, though the transition between the high-percentage group and the low-percentage group could be more sophisticated.

Lexical Resource

The vocabulary used is appropriate for the task, with good use of descriptive terms like 'upward trend', 'substantial growth', 'marginal increase', and 'pronounced growth'. There is a good attempt to vary the language used to describe changes. To reach a higher band, try to avoid minor redundancies (e.g., 'five various European countries') and aim for more sophisticated collocations and a wider range of synonyms for 'increase' and 'decrease' to avoid repetition.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

The report demonstrates a good range of grammatical structures, including complex sentences and comparative forms. Most sentences are clear and convey the intended meaning. However, there are some minor grammatical slips, such as 'exceeded that of Spain' (which should be 'exceeding') and 'showed only marginal increase' (which requires an article: 'a marginal increase'). Paying closer attention to article usage and participle clauses will help improve overall accuracy.
