Band 4+: The maps below present the changes that have taken place at the Southwest Airport since its reconstruction in the unnamed year.

The report attempts to address the task but suffers from significant issues with clarity, accuracy, and grammatical structure. While you identify some changes, the description is often confusing and contains inaccuracies regarding the layout. For example, the relationship between the facilities is not clearly communicated, and some sentences are difficult to follow due to poor syntax. To improve, focus on the following: 1. **Clarity and Cohesion**: Use clearer sentence structures to describe spatial relationships (e.g., 'To the north of...', 'Adjacent to...'). Avoid fragmented sentences. 2. **Accuracy**: Ensure you are correctly identifying what is being replaced or added. For instance, instead of saying 'gates is held to be extended', specify that the number of gates will increase from 8 to 18. 3. **Grammar and Vocabulary**: Work on subject-verb agreement (e.g., 'plans illustrate' instead of 'plans illustrates') and the use of passive voice to describe changes (e.g., 'The check-in area will be replaced by...'). 4. **Structure**: Ensure your overview provides a clear summary of the main trends (e.g., the airport will become more modern and offer more services) without getting bogged down in specific details too early. The report falls short of the required 150 words.

The organization of ideas is somewhat logical, but the progression is hindered by significant grammatical issues. The use of cohesive devices is limited and sometimes inaccurate. To improve, ensure that each paragraph has a clear central topic and use a wider variety of linking words (e.g., 'In addition,' 'In contrast,' 'Regarding the...') to connect your observations smoothly. Avoid starting sentences with 'Meanwhile' unless there is a direct temporal or comparative relationship being established.

The vocabulary is quite limited and often used incorrectly, which makes it difficult to understand the specific changes described in the maps. For example, 'reform another year' and 'walk away with' are not appropriate in this context. You should aim to use more precise terminology related to airport infrastructure, such as 'expansion,' 'relocation,' 'reconfiguration,' or 'modernization.' Try to avoid repetitive phrasing and ensure that the words you choose accurately reflect the visual data.

There are frequent grammatical errors throughout the report, including issues with subject-verb agreement (e.g., 'plans... illustrates'), tense consistency, and sentence structure (e.g., 'will be remains same'). These errors often impede the reader's ability to follow the description. Focus on mastering basic sentence structures, particularly the passive voice (e.g., 'will be replaced by' instead of 'will replaced by'), which is essential for describing changes in maps. Pay close attention to articles (a, an, the) and prepositions of place.
