The two maps demonstrate changes and developments which have taken place in a village between 1995 and present time.

Overall, it is clear that urbanization and infrastructure development appeared . Farmland and forest park were replaced by golf and tennis facilities. The fishing installation was demolished, instead it was converted into apartments.

Major developments occurred in the north east area. Large farmland and the forest has been decreased slightly,nowadays in place of it there was erected a golf and tennis court, which also were combined in one. Opposite to the northeast, the northwest the residential area almost remained unchanged excepting the building of a couple of houses along the main road.

However, the south outskirts underwent significant developments too. Near the main road, a car park was constructed in front of a hotel. Adjacent to the sea, mini shops turned into restaurants and in lieu of a fishing market appeared a small amount of houses. The reason of deconstruction fishing shops was demolishing fishing port. In the present there are nothing in the sea, just a spot.

Task Response

The report addresses the main changes between the two maps and provides an overview of the transformations. However, there are some inaccuracies in how the data is presented and some logical inconsistencies. For example, the report states that the fishing port was converted into apartments, whereas the visual description suggests apartments appeared by the sea and the port was removed. Additionally, some phrasing is slightly unclear, such as 'the reason of deconstruction fishing shops was demolishing fishing port.' To improve, focus on ensuring that the relationships between different geographical changes are described logically and that the descriptions of specific locations are more precise.

Coherence & Cohesion

The report follows a logical structure with an introduction, overview, and body paragraphs. However, the progression of ideas is sometimes interrupted by awkward phrasing and grammatical errors. Cohesive devices are used, but they occasionally feel forced or are used incorrectly (e.g., 'instead it was converted'). To improve, focus on using smoother transitions between sentences and ensuring that the relationship between different changes is clearly articulated through better linking words.

Lexical Resource

There is an attempt to use a variety of vocabulary related to change (e.g., 'demolished', 'converted', 'underwent', 'constructed'). However, there are several instances of imprecise word choices and awkward collocations, such as 'the reason of deconstruction fishing shops' and 'a small amount of houses' (where 'a small number of' would be more appropriate for countable nouns). Aim to use more natural academic collocations and ensure that the vocabulary used to describe spatial relationships is precise.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

The report uses a mix of simple and complex structures, but grammatical errors are frequent and occasionally impede communication. There are issues with tense consistency (mixing past and present inappropriately), subject-verb agreement, and sentence structure (e.g., 'there are nothing in the sea'). Additionally, some sentences are fragmented or poorly constructed. To improve, practice using a wider range of complex structures with greater accuracy, particularly focusing on passive voice for describing changes and ensuring correct tense usage when comparing past and present states.
