The image shows two maps comparing changes from 1990 to 2020. In 1990, it includes a mosque, school, local supermarket, and residential houses, with a river crossing through the center; a farm field and barn are located northeast of the river; a patch of trees is visible north of the school and another set west of the residential area. In 2020, the same mosque, school, and river remain with additional facilities: a residential building where the local supermarket was, a marketplace extending across the river bridge, a business center, and a cement factory southeast, in place of the barn and farm field; trees remain in the north, with additional trees in the southeastern area adjacent to the cement factory.

Task Response

The report attempts to address the task by describing some changes between 1990 and 2020, but it contains several inaccuracies and irrelevant details. For example, it mentions 'deforestation' and 'stockrooms' which are not supported by the visual description, and it misidentifies features like 'local government' and 'lake'. The overall structure is present, but the inclusion of inaccurate information detracts from the task achievement. To improve, focus on accurately selecting and reporting the main features from the visual description, and ensure comparisons are clear and relevant. Avoid adding unsupported details.

Coherence & Cohesion

The report attempts to organize information by location (north, southwest, southeast), but the overall structure is somewhat confusing. The description of changes is not always clear, and the logical flow is disrupted by unclear references (e.g., 'the northsouth of the map had built two stockrooms'). The introduction and overview are present but could be more effective. To improve, use clearer paragraphing to separate different areas of the map and ensure each paragraph focuses on a distinct set of changes. Use linking words and phrases more effectively to guide the reader through the comparison.

Lexical Resource

The vocabulary used is adequate for the task but lacks precision and range. Some terms are used inaccurately (e.g., 'deforestation' for tree removal, 'stockrooms' for unspecified buildings, 'conversed a bridge' for 'connected by a bridge'). There is some attempt at paraphrasing (e.g., 'private homes' for 'residential houses'), but overall the lexical choices are limited. To improve, expand your vocabulary related to maps and changes (e.g., 'relocated', 'expanded', 'replaced', 'constructed', 'demolished'). Use more specific and accurate terms for the features shown.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

The report contains several grammatical errors and awkward phrasings that impede understanding. Examples include 'Meriet city had changed' (should be 'the town of Meriet changed'), 'forest shrunk' (should be 'the forest shrank'), 'on the northsouth of the map had built' (incorrect structure), 'instead of resident houses had established' (incorrect word order), and 'there was constructed a cement factory' (awkward passive). Punctuation is also inconsistent. To improve, focus on sentence structure, subject-verb agreement, and correct use of tenses (past simple for completed actions). Practice writing clear, grammatically correct sentences.
