Task Response

The report attempts to address the task but contains significant inaccuracies and omissions. The overall trend is misrepresented (car theft is not the highest throughout; house burglary is higher). Key data points are incorrect (e.g., car theft peak, house burglary values, street robbery start). The report lacks a clear comparison between categories and fails to mention important features such as the overall increase in all crime types. To improve, ensure accurate data selection, describe main trends clearly, and make relevant comparisons. The report falls short of the required 150 words.

Coherence & Cohesion

The report has a clear structure with an introduction, an overview, and separate paragraphs for each crime type. However, the flow is disrupted by abrupt transitions and incomplete sentences. For example, the overview ends abruptly without a concluding phrase, and the paragraph on street robbery lacks a clear connection to the previous ones. Additionally, the final sentence is incomplete, which affects the overall coherence. To improve, ensure each paragraph has a clear topic sentence and that the report ends with a complete, summarizing statement. Use cohesive devices such as 'in contrast' or 'similarly' to link ideas more smoothly.

Lexical Resource

The vocabulary used is adequate for the task, with some appropriate terms like 'illustrates', 'gradually', and 'experienced a drop'. However, there are instances of imprecise word choices and awkward phrasing, such as 'infrared' instead of 'increased' and 'there were no occasions at all' which is unclear. The range of vocabulary is limited, and more precise and varied language could be used to describe trends (e.g., 'fluctuated', 'peaked', 'declined steadily'). To improve, expand your vocabulary for describing data trends and ensure word choices are accurate and natural. Boost vocabulary complexity to elevate the overall score.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

The report contains several grammatical errors and punctuation issues that hinder clarity. For instance, there are missing periods at the end of sentences, and the sentence 'Then it infrared to 0.20 million by 2000 and stayed the same remaining time' is grammatically incorrect and incomplete. Additionally, the use of 'burgling' is non-standard; 'burglary' is the correct term. The range of grammatical structures is limited, with mostly simple sentences. To improve, focus on sentence structure variety, ensure subject-verb agreement, and proofread for punctuation and spelling errors. Practicing complex sentences with subordinate clauses can also enhance grammatical range.
