Task Response

The report addresses the task by describing the main changes between 2004 and 2014, and it includes an overview. However, there are several inaccuracies and omissions that detract from the task achievement. For example, the report incorrectly states that the ancient house in the southeast was demolished and expanded, whereas the visual description indicates that the ancient temple remained in the southeast and the ancient houses were in the north. Additionally, the report mentions a 'stadium station' and 'ancient palace' but does not accurately describe their locations or the replacement of the mountain range with houses. The report also omits key details such as the reduction in trees and the specific arrangement of new houses. To improve, focus on accurately identifying the locations and changes, and ensure that the overview highlights the most significant transformations, such as the addition of the stadium, toilet, palace, and the replacement of mountains with houses.

Coherence & Cohesion

The report has a clear overall structure with an introduction, an overview, and body paragraphs, but the organization of ideas within paragraphs is sometimes confusing. The second paragraph mixes information about the ancient houses and the toilet without a clear logical flow, and the third paragraph jumps between different areas without clear signposting. Cohesive devices are used, but they are sometimes inaccurate or overused (e.g., 'Concurrently', 'Turning to the remaining of the map'). The message can be followed, but with some effort due to unclear referencing and occasional lapses in coherence. To improve, use clearer topic sentences for each paragraph and ensure each paragraph focuses on a specific area or type of change, with logical sequencing of details.

Lexical Resource

The report attempts to use a range of vocabulary appropriate to the task, such as 'layout alterations', 'modernization', 'demolished', and 'erected'. However, there are several inaccuracies and awkward phrasings that detract from clarity, e.g., 'additinal public restroom and stadium station', 'macro-developments', 'significantly alterations', 'ancient toilet was erected', and 'northern bottom'. Some word choices are not precise (e.g., 'forestry' instead of 'trees', 'remaining of the map' instead of 'rest of the map'). To improve, focus on using precise and natural collocations, and proofread for word form errors. A wider range of less common vocabulary could also be used, but accuracy should be prioritized.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

The report uses a mix of simple and complex sentence structures, but there are several grammatical errors that affect clarity. Examples include subject-verb agreement issues ('the southeast contained ancient house' should be 'the southeast contained ancient houses'), incorrect word forms ('significantly alterations' should be 'significant alterations'), and missing articles ('ancient toilet' should be 'an ancient toilet'). Punctuation is mostly correct, but there are occasional comma splices and run-on sentences. To improve, review grammar rules for subject-verb agreement, article usage, and word forms. Also, vary sentence structures more flexibly and ensure each sentence is grammatically complete.
