The pie charts illustrates the proportions of people using five different types of transport in one city in 2000 and 2020.

Overall, cars remained the most popular form of transport, and their share increased significant over the period. In contrast, public transport, walking and cycling became less common, while the figure for other forms of transport remained stable.

In 2000, cars accounted 40% of total transport use, which was twice as high than the figure for public transport, at 20%. Walking and other forms of transport each represented 15%, whereas cycling made up the smallest share, at 10%.

By 2020, the proportion of people travelling by car had risen to 55%, an increase of 15%. Meanwhile, the share using public transport decreased at 15%, and walking fell from 15% to 10%. The proportion choosing bicycles was also lower, reaching 5%, which was half of its original level. Finally, other forms of transport remained stably at 15%, the same proportion with public transport in the final year.

Task Response

The report effectively addresses the task by presenting an overview and key details of the data. The overall trend is clearly identified, and the main changes are described. There are minor language inaccuracies (e.g., 'illustrates' should be 'illustrate', 'accounted' should be 'accounted for', 'decreased at' should be 'decreased to', 'remained stably' should be 'remained stable', 'proportion with' should be 'proportion as'), but these do not detract from the clarity of the response. To improve, ensure subject-verb agreement and use precise prepositions. The data is accurately reported, and the report is well-structured.

Coherence & Cohesion

The report is well-organized with a clear overall statement and logical progression from general trends to specific data. Paragraphing is appropriate, and cohesive devices are used effectively. Minor lapses: the phrase 'the same proportion with public transport' could be more precise ('the same proportion as public transport'), but overall the message is easy to follow.

Lexical Resource

The vocabulary is varied and appropriate for the task, with good use of synonyms (e.g., 'proportion', 'share', 'figure') and precise terms like 'remained stable' and 'increased significant'. There is a minor word form error ('significant' should be 'significantly'), and 'remained stably' is slightly awkward ('remained stable' is more natural). Overall, the lexical range is strong and mostly accurate. Pay attention to vocabulary repetition to improve the overall score.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

The report demonstrates a good range of grammatical structures, including comparisons and complex sentences. However, there are a few errors: 'illustrates' should be 'illustrate' (subject-verb agreement), 'accounted' should be 'accounted for', 'twice as high than' should be 'twice as high as', and 'decreased at 15%' should be 'decreased to 15%'. These errors are minor but noticeable, so the grammar is not fully accurate throughout.
