The shops in the west will disappear, but the post office will remain. The primary school will be expanded to become bigger. Lastly, the large house will be converted into a retirement home.

Task Response

The report effectively addresses the task by describing the changes between 1986 and 2026. It provides a clear overview and organizes information logically. However, there are some inaccuracies: the report states that all farmland will be replaced by housing, but the visual description indicates farmland remains. Also, it mentions shops disappearing, but the visual description does not specify this. The report could be improved by more accurately reflecting the visual information and avoiding unsupported claims.

Coherence & Cohesion

The report is well-organized and easy to follow, with a clear overall structure that compares the two time periods. The use of cohesive devices such as 'while', 'finally', and 'lastly' helps guide the reader. However, the paragraphing could be slightly more skilful; for instance, the second paragraph could be split to separate the overview from the detailed description. Overall, the message is conveyed clearly with minimal lapses.

Lexical Resource

The vocabulary used is appropriate and generally accurate, with some good choices like 'considerably', 'infrastructures', and 'converted into'. However, the range is somewhat limited, and there is room for more sophisticated and varied lexical items. For example, instead of repeating 'will be', synonyms like 'are projected to' or 'are expected to' could be used. The phrasing is natural but could be more flexible to achieve a higher score. Boost vocabulary complexity to elevate the overall score.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

The grammar is largely accurate, with a good mix of simple and complex structures. The use of passive voice ('will be changed', 'will be removed') and conditional forms ('will be converted') is effective. There are no major errors, and punctuation is used correctly. To reach a band 9, the report could incorporate a wider range of structures, such as more complex subordinate clauses or varied sentence openings.
