Task Response

The report effectively addresses the task by describing the main changes in Harton between 2008 and 2016, with a clear structure and appropriate comparisons. However, there are some inaccuracies and omissions: the car park is described as replacing the derelict warehouse, but the visual description indicates it was converted from woodland; the arts centre was replaced by a shopping centre, not a cinema; and the cinema replaced the warehouse. Additionally, the report omits the expansion of the industrial complex in the east. To improve, ensure all key changes are accurately reported and avoid minor data errors. The overall organization and language are strong, but attention to detail would enhance task achievement.

Coherence & Cohesion

The report is logically organized and generally easy to follow, with clear paragraphing that separates the northern/central changes from the southern changes. However, there are minor lapses in cohesion, such as the phrase 'took the place' (should be 'took place') and the final sentence 'The south and east suffered the most noticeable changes' which is slightly awkward and could be more precise. Overall, the flow is good, but a few transitions could be smoother.

Lexical Resource

The vocabulary is appropriate and varied, with terms like 'derelict warehouses', 'commercial expansion', and 'modernization' used effectively. There are some minor inaccuracies, such as 'changed on office buildings' (should be 'changed into office buildings') and 'turning in small pond' (should be 'turning into a small pond'). The range is good, but a few collocations are not quite natural, which slightly reduces the score.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

The report uses a mix of sentence structures, but there are several grammatical errors that affect clarity. Examples include 'took the place' (incorrect phrase), 'changed on office buildings' (wrong preposition), 'turning in small pond' (missing article and wrong preposition), 'replaced to make way to shopping center' (should be 'replaced to make way for a shopping centre'), and 'over 8 year period' (missing article). These errors, while not severe, are noticeable and impact the overall accuracy. With more careful proofreading, the grammatical range could be better utilized.
