Task Response

The report attempts to address all parts of the task, but there are significant issues with data accuracy and consistency. While the overview identifies general trends, the body paragraphs contain numerous contradictions; for example, some figures are described as increasing while the numbers provided show a decrease, or vice versa. Additionally, there is a lack of clarity in how the data from the bar chart is presented, with some figures appearing to be invented or misaligned with the provided description. To improve, ensure that every trend described (increase/decrease) matches the numerical data provided, and focus on grouping the data logically to avoid repetitive sentence structures.

Coherence & Cohesion

The report follows a logical structure with an introduction, overview, and body paragraphs. However, the progression of ideas is often interrupted by awkward phrasing and incorrect cohesive devices. For example, 'By constract' is a misspelling of 'By contrast,' and the use of 'after which' or 'followed by' is sometimes applied incorrectly, making the relationship between data points difficult to follow. To improve, focus on using transition words more naturally and ensuring that each sentence flows logically into the next to guide the reader through the comparisons.

Lexical Resource

There is an attempt to use a variety of verbs to describe change (e.g., 'surged', 'dipped', 'slumped'), which is good. However, there are several spelling errors (e.g., 'accuslic' instead of 'acoustic', 'constract' instead of 'contrast') and imprecise word choices that hinder clarity. Additionally, some descriptions of trends are contradictory (e.g., saying a value 'dipped' when it actually increased). Aim for higher precision in your vocabulary and double-check the spelling of key terms used in the task.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

The report uses a mix of simple and complex sentence structures, but grammatical errors are frequent and often impede communication. There are issues with preposition usage (e.g., 'dipped slowly at 27% to 30%' instead of 'from 27% to 30%'), subject-verb agreement, and sentence construction. For instance, 'Other category was relative 3%' is grammatically incomplete. To improve, practice using prepositions of change (from... to..., by..., at...) correctly and ensure that every sentence has a clear subject and verb.
