The maps illustrate how the coastal area has changed since 1950.

Overall, the beachfront has undergone commercial development, with the playground being removed. Most notably, the number of recreational facilities has increased, while the road infrastructure has been extended.

Looking first at the area closer to the road, in 1950, there was a playground, a car park, some dining tables and a pavilion arranged along the northern part of the area. However, over time, several changes have taken place, with the road being extended to the south-eastern part of the coast towards the lighthouse and another car park being added.

Turning to the coastal area, initially, there were two 25-metre swimming pools, but the south-western pool has since been expanded to 50 metres. Additionally, the beach has been commercialised with the addition of a restaurant in the western part and two surf clubs on either side of the coast. The lighthouse has remained unchanged, while the road has been extended towards it.

Task Response

7
The report effectively addresses the task by providing an overview and highlighting key changes, such as the removal of the playground, extension of the road, and addition of a restaurant. Comparisons between 1950 and the present are made appropriately. However, there are a few minor inaccuracies and omissions: the report mentions 'two surf clubs' but the visual description indicates only one surf club, and it does not mention the pavilion's removal or the unchanged dining tables. To improve, ensure all main features are accurately described and avoid introducing details not supported by the visual information.

Coherence & Cohesion

8
The report is well-organized and easy to follow, with a clear overall structure. The introduction and overview are effective, and the body paragraphs logically group information by location. However, the transition between the two body paragraphs could be smoother, and the final sentence about the road extension is slightly repetitive. Consider using more varied linking phrases to enhance cohesion.

Lexical Resource

8
The vocabulary is appropriate and demonstrates a good range of terms related to maps and changes (e.g., 'undergone', 'commercialised', 'extended', 'arranged'). The report uses precise language for describing locations and changes. To reach a higher band, incorporate more sophisticated and varied vocabulary, such as 'transformed', 'relocated', or 'expanded', and avoid repetition of words like 'extended'.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

9
The report demonstrates a wide range of grammatical structures used accurately and flexibly. Complex sentences are handled well, and punctuation is correct throughout. There are no noticeable errors, and the grammar is consistently precise, which fully meets the criteria for a high band score.
