Task Response

The report attempts to address the task but contains significant inaccuracies in data reporting that conflict with the provided visual description. For example, the report claims tennis increased steadily, whereas the description states it declined, and it provides numbers for rugby (245) that do not align with the data. While the structure includes an introduction, overview, and body paragraphs, the core information is often contradictory or irrelevant to the actual trends. To improve, focus on accurately identifying whether a trend is increasing or decreasing and ensure the numbers cited match the visual data provided. Aim to group similar trends together to make comparisons more logical.

Coherence & Cohesion

The organization of ideas is somewhat logical, but the progression is frequently interrupted by confusing phrasing and inaccurate comparisons. The use of cohesive devices is limited and sometimes used incorrectly (e.g., 'Except of that'). To improve, focus on using clearer transition signals and ensure that each paragraph has a distinct, clear purpose. Avoid repetitive sentence structures and ensure that the relationship between different data points is expressed clearly through comparative language.

Lexical Resource

The vocabulary is quite limited and often used inaccurately. There are several spelling errors (e.g., 'dramaticly', 'parcipated', 'notisable') and word choice issues where the intended meaning is unclear (e.g., 'extended the number of participates', 'rised people number'). Instead of repeating 'section' or 'number of people', try to use a wider variety of synonyms such as 'participants', 'figures', 'levels', or 'totals'. Work on learning collocations related to trends, such as 'showed a steady increase' or 'experienced a significant decline'.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

Grammatical errors are frequent and significantly impact the readability of the report. There are issues with verb tense (e.g., 'had steadily increase' instead of 'increased steadily'), subject-verb agreement, and word forms (e.g., 'participates' instead of 'participants'). Sentence structures are often repetitive and lack the complexity required for higher bands. Focus on mastering basic tense consistency and the correct formation of comparative structures (e.g., 'more than', 'fewer than', 'compared to').
