Task Response

The report addresses the task and attempts to describe the trends for all four countries. However, there are significant issues with data accuracy and clarity. Many of the figures reported in the body paragraphs do not align with the provided visual description (for example, stating Kenya was 'less to 2 percent' or reporting figures like 40 and 41 percent for 1995), which makes the description confusing. Additionally, the use of non-standard phrasing such as 'downroad trend' and 'leader one by one' hinders the clarity of the report. To improve, focus on ensuring that the data cited matches the graph accurately and work on using standard academic collocations to describe trends, such as 'a downward trend' or 'a period of fluctuation'.

Coherence & Cohesion

The organization of the report is somewhat logical, but the progression of ideas is frequently interrupted by awkward phrasing and grammatical errors. While there is an attempt to group information, the transitions between sentences and the logical flow of comparisons are weak. To improve, focus on using cohesive devices (e.g., 'In contrast,' 'Similarly,' 'Following this') more effectively and ensure that each paragraph has a clear central topic. Avoid jumping between data points without clear connective tissue.

Lexical Resource

The vocabulary used is quite limited and often inaccurate. There are several instances of non-standard phrasing, such as 'leader one by one,' 'downroad trend,' and 'showed more result,' which obscure the intended meaning. Additionally, there are spelling errors (e.g., 'Nigera', 'meawhile'). To improve, work on learning academic collocations for describing trends (e.g., 'experienced a downward trend,' 'reached a peak,' 'fluctuated slightly') and ensure that word choices are precise and natural. Boost vocabulary complexity to elevate the overall score.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

Grammatical errors are frequent and significantly impact the readability of the report. There are issues with subject-verb agreement (e.g., 'Nigera and Kenya was'), incorrect verb tenses (e.g., 'Nigeria achieve peak', 'growed'), and improper sentence structures. Prepositional errors and missing articles are also present. To improve, focus on mastering basic tense consistency (using the past tense for historical data) and subject-verb agreement. Practicing complex sentence structures with correct subordinating conjunctions will also help increase your score.
