The two maps compare the island appearance in 2005 with its development in 2020.

In 2005 the island was covered predominantly by greenery, with wide variety of trees’ species all over the territory. Besides, empty beach in the south was unequipped. No indication of civilization like amenities or routes were present.

By 2020, extensive development had taken place. First of all, was constructed a huge contemporary hotel complex, including following buildings: Hotel 1 in the southwest, Hotel 2 located in the middle of the island, and Hotel 3 on the eastern side of the island. Moreover, some leisure facilities appeared, namely, the beach was altered and became a private secluded area for relaxation. A restaurant was also added in the central area and had been connected with other constructions by a new road system. In addition, a pier on the southeastern side was built providing more convenient method to enter the island. Despite these changes, the dense woodland in the north and parts of the east were left intact, preserving some of the island’s natural environment.

In summary, the island evolved from a completely natural setting in 2005 into a fully developed tourist destination by 2020, marked by the addition of accommodation, dining, recreational areas, and transport infrastructure, while still maintaining a portion of its greenery.

Task Response

The report effectively summarizes the changes to the island between 2005 and 2020. It accurately identifies the main features and provides a clear comparison of the developments. The description is well-organized and uses appropriate language to convey the information. The summary provides a concise overview of the transformation, highlighting key changes and noting the preservation of some natural areas.

Coherence & Cohesion

The report is generally well-organized with a clear introduction, body paragraphs, and conclusion. The progression of ideas is logical, moving from the description of the island in 2005 to its development by 2020. Transitions between sentences and paragraphs are mostly smooth, but there are a few instances where the connection could be strengthened to improve the flow. For example, in the second paragraph, explicitly linking the construction of the hotel complex to the overall development would enhance coherence. Also, consider using varied cohesive devices to avoid repetition.

Lexical Resource

The report demonstrates a good range of vocabulary relevant to describing changes in a landscape. Words like 'predominantly,' 'extensive development,' 'leisure facilities,' 'secluded,' and 'transport infrastructure' are used appropriately. However, there are opportunities to use more precise or sophisticated vocabulary to elevate the description. For instance, instead of 'huge contemporary hotel complex,' consider using more descriptive terms related to architecture or resort development. Also, ensure that the vocabulary is consistently accurate and natural-sounding.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

The report demonstrates a good command of grammar with a variety of sentence structures. There are a few grammatical errors and phrasing issues that need attention. For example, 'wide variety of trees' species' should be corrected to 'a wide variety of tree species' or 'a wide variety of trees.' Also, 'was constructed a huge contemporary hotel complex' sounds awkward and could be rephrased as 'a huge contemporary hotel complex was constructed' or 'the construction of a huge contemporary hotel complex took place.' Pay close attention to article usage, subject-verb agreement, and word order to enhance grammatical accuracy.
