Task Response

The report addresses the task by identifying that changes have occurred, but it lacks specific detail from the visual information. The description is overly general, using vague terms like 'old buildings,' 'new facilities,' and 'more streets' without naming the specific landmarks provided in the description (such as the IMAX cinema, the climbing centre, or the bus and train station). To improve, you should incorporate specific data points and names of locations to support your overview. While the structure is clear, the content remains too superficial to fully satisfy the requirements of the task. The report falls short of the required 150 words.

Coherence & Cohesion

The report is organized into logical paragraphs, and the progression of ideas is easy to follow. However, the cohesion is somewhat mechanical. To improve, try using a wider variety of cohesive devices and transition signals (e.g., 'In terms of infrastructure,' 'Regarding the residential sector,' or 'Conversely') to link sentences more naturally rather than relying on simple additive transitions like 'In addition'.

Lexical Resource

The vocabulary used is functional but quite basic and repetitive (e.g., using 'area', 'new', and 'built' multiple times). To reach a higher band, you should aim for more precise and sophisticated synonyms. Instead of 'old buildings were removed,' you could use 'demolished' or 'cleared.' Instead of 'new facilities were built,' consider 'constructed,' 'established,' or 'developed.' Using more specific terminology related to urban planning would also enhance the quality of the report. Boost vocabulary complexity to elevate the overall score.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

The report demonstrates a good grasp of basic sentence structures and uses the past tense appropriately to describe historical changes. However, the range of structures is limited, with most sentences following a simple subject-verb-object pattern. To improve, try incorporating more complex sentence structures, such as relative clauses (e.g., 'The farmland, which was previously located in the north, has been replaced by...') and passive voice constructions to vary the sentence flow.
