The line chart illustrates the average distance in kilometers travelled per person using their different forms of transport in a European city, namely private car, public transport and bicycle or walking, over the period from 2000 to 2020.

Overall, the number of people who used public transport and bicycle or walking increased steadily over the period. In contrast, the proportion for using private transport declined considerably.

Looking first at public transport, the number of using public transport was 3000 kilometers in 2000. It then rose steadily to around 4200 kilometers in 2010 before reaching around 5900 kilometers in 2020. Meanwhile, the figure for using bicycle or walking began at 800 kilometers in 2000. It then grew gradually to about 1200 kilometers in 2010 and reached around at 2000 kilometers in 2020.

Regarding private transport, initially the figure stood at 8500 kilometers in 2000. After that, it fell gradually to approximately 8800 kilometers in 2010. Finally, it reached around 6000 kilometers at the in pf the period.

Task Response

The report effectively addresses the task by providing an overview and describing the main trends for all three modes of transport. The data is generally accurate, and comparisons are made between the modes. However, there are a few minor inaccuracies (e.g., private car distance in 2010) and some awkward phrasing (e.g., 'at the in pf the period'). To improve, ensure precise data reporting and proofread for grammatical errors.

Coherence & Cohesion

The report is logically organized with a clear overall trend statement and separate paragraphs for each mode of transport. The use of cohesive devices such as 'Overall', 'Looking first at', 'Meanwhile', and 'Regarding' helps the reader follow the description. However, there are minor lapses in cohesion, such as the phrase 'the number of using public transport' which is awkward and could be rephrased for smoother flow. Additionally, the final sentence 'at the in pf the period' contains a typo that disrupts coherence. Overall, the structure is clear, but attention to precise phrasing would enhance the flow.

Lexical Resource

The report uses a range of vocabulary appropriate for describing trends, such as 'illustrates', 'travelled', 'increased steadily', 'declined considerably', 'rose steadily', 'grew gradually', and 'fell gradually'. However, there are some inaccuracies and repetitions. For example, 'the number of using public transport' is not idiomatic; it would be better to say 'the distance travelled by public transport users' or 'the figure for public transport'. Also, 'the proportion for using private transport' is slightly awkward; 'the distance travelled by private car' would be more precise. The phrase 'reached around at 2000 kilometers' contains an unnecessary preposition. To achieve a higher score, the report should use more varied and precise vocabulary, avoiding repetitive structures and ensuring natural collocations. Pay attention to vocabulary repetition to improve the overall score.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

The report demonstrates a reasonable range of grammatical structures, including simple and complex sentences. However, there are several grammatical errors and awkward phrasings that affect accuracy. For instance, 'the number of using public transport' is grammatically incorrect; it should be 'the number of people using public transport' or 'the figure for public transport'. The phrase 'reached around at 2000 kilometers' has an extra preposition 'at'. The final sentence 'at the in pf the period' contains a typo and is unclear. Additionally, there are minor issues with article usage and word choice. To improve, the writer should proofread carefully and ensure that all sentences are grammatically correct and clearly expressed. Using a wider variety of sentence structures would also enhance the grammatical range.
