The image presents two comparative illustrations labeled "Nelson, 2000" and "Nelson, today". The 2000 illustration features buildings and areas tagged as university, train station, city center with a single low-rise stall representing an old market, port, and a hall of residence, depicted without specific numerical data. The "Nelson, today" illustration includes advancements like a new shopping center, new train station, bicycle rental scheme, pedestrian-only markings around the city center, a new covered market instead of the old market, additional rows of bar and club icons near the port, a restaurant, and new pedestrian walkways. It maintains similar basic layout elements like the university, train station, and port seen in the 2000 depiction but with additional contemporary features. No quantitative data present.

Given the complexity of the image, the above description may not be entirely accurate.

Task Response

The report addresses the task by describing the main changes between the two maps, and it makes some comparisons. However, there are several inaccuracies and omissions that detract from the overall clarity. For instance, the report mentions a 'tramline' and 'hall of residents' which are not clearly supported by the visual description, and it omits key features such as the bicycle rental scheme and pedestrian walkways. The organization is logical, but the language contains grammatical errors and awkward phrasing (e.g., 'the charts illustrates', 'has undergo', 'the area of the town takes facilities'). To improve, focus on accurately reporting all main changes, using appropriate vocabulary for map descriptions, and ensuring grammatical accuracy.

Coherence & Cohesion

The report has a logical structure with an introduction, overview, and two body paragraphs describing the maps. However, the flow is sometimes disrupted by unclear referencing and abrupt transitions. For example, 'On the opposite of old market' and 'In the place of old market new shop was built' could be more clearly linked. The overview is present but could be more effective in summarizing the main changes. Paragraphing is acceptable, but the use of cohesive devices is limited and sometimes inaccurate, making the message less effortless to follow.

Lexical Resource

The report uses a range of vocabulary related to urban development (e.g., 'modernization', 'pedestrian-only', 'shopping centre'), but there are several inaccuracies and awkward phrasings. For instance, 'the city has undergo considerably developed' and 'the area has become residental' show incorrect word forms and collocations. The phrase 'takes facilities' is unclear. More precise and natural vocabulary, such as 'has been transformed' or 'now features', would improve the lexical quality. The range is adequate but not fully flexible or sophisticated.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

The report contains numerous grammatical errors that affect clarity and accuracy. Examples include subject-verb agreement ('The charts illustrates'), incorrect verb forms ('has undergo', 'was constructed nearly'), and missing articles ('the hall of residents' should be 'the hall of residence'). There are also issues with tense consistency and word order. While some complex structures are attempted, they are often flawed. Punctuation is mostly correct, but the overall grammatical control is insufficient for a high band score. To improve, the writer should focus on basic sentence structure and proofreading.
