Band 5+: The maps below describe a town in the Atlantic Ocean affected by a volcanic eruption in 1706. Summarise the information by selecting and reporting the main features and make comparison where relevant.

The report addresses the task by describing the main features of the maps and making some comparisons. However, there are several inaccuracies and omissions that detract from the overall effectiveness. For instance, the report incorrectly states the volcano's location as 'far northest' and mentions the castle remained intact, whereas the visual description indicates the lava covered the castle and port areas. Additionally, the report omits key details such as the town square, the port's capacity, and the specific dates of the lava flows. The language contains numerous spelling and grammatical errors (e.g., 'ocean village', 'undergone', 'afftected', 'spred', 'whlile', 'exísting', 'transporation') that affect clarity. To improve, focus on accurately reporting all main features, ensure correct spelling and grammar, and structure the response with clear overview and detailed paragraphs. The report falls short of the required 150 words.

The report has a logical structure with an introduction, overview, and body paragraphs, but the flow is disrupted by unclear referencing and abrupt transitions. For example, the shift from describing the volcano's location to the eruption's effects could be smoother. The overview is present but could be more comprehensive. Work on using cohesive devices more effectively to link ideas and ensure each paragraph has a clear central topic.

There is an attempt to use a range of vocabulary (e.g., 'termination', 'eradicating', 'substantially'), but there are several inaccuracies and awkward choices (e.g., 'affection extent', 'malfunctioning the whole transporation'). Spelling errors (e.g., 'northest', 'spred', 'whlile', 'exísting') and incorrect word forms (e.g., 'a ocean', 'volcano eruption') detract from clarity. To improve, focus on using precise and natural collocations, and proofread for spelling and word choice.

The report contains numerous grammatical errors that impede understanding, including subject-verb agreement ('The town undergone', 'routes ... was terminated'), incorrect verb forms ('undergone' should be 'underwent' or 'has undergone'), and missing articles ('a ocean', 'the castle just at the northest'). There are also punctuation issues and inconsistent tense usage. To improve, practice using past tenses correctly, ensure subject-verb agreement, and review basic sentence structure. The range of structures is limited, and errors are frequent.
