Task Response

The report adequately addresses the task by summarizing the main features of the graph and making some comparisons. However, there are some areas for improvement. The description of the trends is generally accurate, but could be more precise and detailed, especially regarding the fluctuations in both employment rates and average salaries. The language used is generally clear, but there are instances of awkward phrasing and imprecise vocabulary. To improve, focus on using more specific language to describe trends and data points, and ensure that all statements are supported by the information presented in the graph.

Coherence & Cohesion

The report demonstrates an adequate attempt to organize the information, but the flow could be improved. The introduction is acceptable, but the overall summary could be more concise and focused. The progression of ideas is sometimes unclear, and the connections between sentences could be strengthened to enhance coherence. Paragraphing is generally adequate, but some paragraphs could be more clearly defined around specific trends or time periods.

Lexical Resource

The report uses a reasonable range of vocabulary, but there are instances where the word choice could be more precise. For example, using 'figure' to describe percentages is not entirely accurate. There's room to incorporate more sophisticated vocabulary related to trends and data description to elevate the writing.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

The report contains a mix of simple and complex sentence structures, but grammatical errors are present and affect clarity. Errors in verb tense, subject-verb agreement, and article usage are noticeable. While the overall meaning is generally clear, improving grammatical accuracy would significantly enhance the report's quality. Pay close attention to proofreading and editing to minimize these errors.
