Task Response

The report covers all the main stages of the process and provides a clear overview of the sequence. The progression from harvesting to consumption is well-handled. To improve, ensure better grammatical accuracy in complex structures (e.g., 'the mixture are boiled' should be 'is boiled', and 'after being underwent' should be 'after undergoing') and refine the use of passive voice to maintain a more formal academic tone throughout.

Coherence & Cohesion

The report follows a logical sequence, but the cohesion is hindered by several run-on sentences and improper use of conjunctions. For example, the sentence starting with 'In the first stage...' combines too many distinct actions into one long, confusing structure. To improve, use a wider variety of cohesive devices (e.g., 'Subsequently', 'Following this', 'Once this stage is complete') and ensure that each sentence focuses on a clear, manageable set of actions. Avoid using 'and then' repeatedly to connect clauses.

Lexical Resource

The vocabulary is sufficient to describe the process, but there are several instances of awkward phrasing and word choice errors (e.g., 'clear tomatoes', 'cool downed', 'after being underwent'). To reach a higher band, aim for more precise academic verbs and collocations. Instead of 'the mixture are boiled', use 'the mixture is boiled'; instead of 'fills to a ketchup bottle', use 'is poured into bottles'. Work on using more sophisticated synonyms for repetitive words like 'stages' or 'sent'.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

Grammatical errors are frequent and occasionally impede the reader's understanding. There are significant issues with subject-verb agreement (e.g., 'the mixture are boiled'), tense consistency (e.g., 'to stood'), and passive voice construction (e.g., 'they are added sugar' should be 'sugar is added to them'). Additionally, there are punctuation errors, such as missing spaces after commas. Focus on mastering the passive voice, as it is the standard grammatical structure for describing processes, and ensure that your sentence structures are grammatically complete.
