Task Response

The report effectively addresses the task by describing the main trends and comparing the three countries. The overall structure is clear, with an introduction, an overview, and detailed paragraphs. However, there are some inaccuracies and omissions: the overview incorrectly states that France and Japan had a similar upward trend (Japan actually declined), and the data for Spain and France in the final year is slightly off. Additionally, the phrase 'amount of foreign tourists' should be 'number of foreign tourists,' and 'mil' should be written as 'million' for formality. The report could be improved by ensuring the overview accurately reflects the trends and by proofreading for minor grammatical errors.

Coherence & Cohesion

The report has a clear overall structure with an introduction, an overview, and two body paragraphs. However, there are some lapses in coherence, such as the confusing comparison in the overview where France and Japan are mentioned together but then contrasted with Japan. The paragraphing could be improved by more clearly separating the discussion of each country. Use clearer linking words and ensure that comparisons are logically presented.

Lexical Resource

The vocabulary is adequate but somewhat limited and repetitive. For example, 'increased steadily', 'climbed consistently', and 'dropping significantly' are used, but there is a lack of variety in describing trends. Some phrasing is awkward, such as 'the amount of foreign tourists' (should be 'number') and 'the remaining of the period'. To improve, use a wider range of synonyms and more precise terms for trends (e.g., 'rose gradually', 'declined sharply').

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

There are several grammatical errors and awkward structures that affect clarity. Examples include 'a similar upward trend, in contrast with Japan, also saw an upward trajectory' (confusing), 'a moderate grew' (should be 'a moderate increase'), and missing articles or prepositions. Punctuation is inconsistent, such as missing spaces after commas. To improve, focus on sentence structure, subject-verb agreement, and correct use of articles and prepositions.
