Task Response

The report adequately covers the main features of the library layouts in 2001 and 2009, noting key changes and reorganizations. The overview is acceptable. However, there are some inaccuracies in the description of the tables (e.g., '8 6-seater tables' and '4 14-seater tables'). To improve, ensure greater accuracy in describing the details and consider a more structured comparison to highlight the key differences more effectively.

Coherence & Cohesion

The report is generally well-organized, with a clear introduction, overview, and body paragraphs describing the changes. However, there are some instances where the flow could be improved. For example, in the third paragraph, the description of the table arrangement as '8 6-seater tables' is inaccurate according to the visual description. Also, the transition between the description of the 2001 layout and the 2009 layout could be smoother. Consider using more explicit transition phrases to guide the reader. For example, you could use phrases like 'In contrast' or 'By 2009, there were several notable changes' to improve the flow.

Lexical Resource

The report demonstrates a good range of vocabulary related to describing layouts and changes. However, there are some instances where the word choice could be more precise. For example, using 'genres' is appropriate, but consider using synonyms or more specific terms to add variety. Also, be careful with the accuracy of details, such as the number of tables and chairs. Overall, the lexical resource is adequate, but there is room for improvement in terms of precision and variety.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

The report demonstrates a good command of grammar, with a variety of sentence structures used. However, there are some grammatical errors and phrasing issues that affect the clarity of the report. For example, in the third paragraph, the phrase '8 6-seater tables' is grammatically incorrect. Also, the sentence 'Computers were the only facility added to the library with 4 of them were place near the stairs' contains a grammatical error. Pay attention to subject-verb agreement and sentence structure to improve the accuracy of your writing.
