Task Response

The report effectively addresses the task by summarizing the main trends and making comparisons. The overall structure is clear, with an introduction, overview, and detailed paragraphs. However, there are some inaccuracies in the data (e.g., gas reaching 330 in 2010, oil starting at just over 250) and minor omissions (e.g., missing 2005 data). The report could be improved by ensuring data accuracy and including all key time points. Additionally, the phrase 'Oiremained' appears to be a typo. Overall, the response covers the requirements well but has a few lapses.

Coherence & Cohesion

The report is well-structured and easy to follow. The overall trend is clearly stated in the introduction, and the body paragraphs logically describe each fuel type. However, the paragraphing could be improved by separating the discussion of oil and coal into distinct paragraphs for better clarity. Additionally, some cohesive devices are used effectively, but there is slight repetition in the phrasing of trends.

Lexical Resource

The vocabulary is appropriate and generally accurate, with good use of terms like 'upward trend', 'decline', 'gradually', and 'significantly'. However, there is some repetition (e.g., 'figure stood at', 'reached') and a few imprecise expressions (e.g., 'Oiremained' appears to be a typo for 'Oil remained'). A wider range of synonyms and more sophisticated lexical choices would enhance the report. Boost vocabulary complexity to elevate the overall score.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

The grammar is largely accurate with a good mix of sentence structures, including complex sentences (e.g., 'It then increased gradually... before reaching...'). Punctuation is used correctly. There are minor issues such as a missing space ('2010.By') and a typo ('Oiremained'), but these do not significantly affect clarity. Overall, the grammatical control is strong.
