The line graph gives information on the comparison of amounts of money allocated on 5 different kinds of art from 2000 to 2020.

Overall, there was a downward trend in funding of almost every art section, despite visual arts. The highest percentage on the graph was “Museums and Galleries” and had remained the most popular sector by the end of the period.

In terms of the most popular sections, the percentage of expenses that were spent on museums and galleries was 35 in 2000. In addition, this category had a slight dip in 2010 to 30% but still reached the amount that was marginally lower that 35%. “Theatre and Dance” started at 25% and, compared to “Museums and Galleries”, had a noticeable rise to 30% in 2010.

As for expenditure that was allocated on both music and literature, their percentages were declining gradually over the period. Finally, the only section that went up was “Visual arts” climbing from approximately 5% in 2000 to around 17% in 2020 overtaking the music sector.

Task Response

The report effectively addresses the task by providing an overview and highlighting key trends, such as the overall decline in most sectors and the rise of Visual Arts. It makes relevant comparisons, particularly between Museums and Galleries and Theatre and Dance. However, there are some inaccuracies and omissions: the initial percentage for Visual Arts is stated as approximately 5% instead of 8%, and the report does not mention the specific values for Music and Literature at the end of the period. Additionally, the phrase 'almost every art section' is slightly misleading since Theatre and Dance also fluctuates. To improve, ensure all data points are accurately reported and consider including more precise figures for each sector to fully satisfy the task requirements.

Coherence & Cohesion

The report has a clear overall structure with an introduction, an overview, and body paragraphs. However, the flow is sometimes disrupted by awkward phrasing and unclear referencing (e.g., 'the amount that was marginally lower that 35%' and 'their percentages were declining gradually'). The final sentence is a bit abrupt and could be better linked to the previous ideas. To improve, use clearer topic sentences and ensure each paragraph has a single main idea. Also, use cohesive devices more naturally to guide the reader through the comparisons.

Lexical Resource

The report uses some appropriate vocabulary for describing trends (e.g., 'downward trend', 'slight dip', 'noticeable rise', 'climbing'). However, there are instances of imprecise or informal word choices (e.g., 'amounts of money allocated on', 'the most popular sections', 'expenses that were spent'). The range of vocabulary is limited, and some phrases are repetitive. To improve, use a wider variety of precise terms (e.g., 'proportion', 'expenditure', 'witnessed a decline', 'surpassed') and avoid informal or vague expressions.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

The report demonstrates a reasonable range of grammatical structures, including some complex sentences. However, there are several errors and awkward constructions that affect clarity (e.g., 'the amount that was marginally lower that 35%' should be 'slightly lower than 35%', 'their percentages were declining gradually' could be 'the percentages for music and literature declined gradually'). Punctuation is mostly correct, but some sentences are overly long and could be broken down. To improve, focus on subject-verb agreement, correct use of comparatives, and ensure that each sentence is grammatically complete and clear.
