The 'today' plan shows the kitchen and toilets in the same relative locations, a main 'Tables and chairs' area, and specific counters for 'Hot meals', a 'Salad bar', 'Take away food', and a 'Coffee bar'. The staff dining rooms are no longer present. A recycling bin is located on the right wall. A new outdoor area includes a barbecue and 'Outdoor seating' for 20 people, comprising two square tables with 4 chairs each and two rectangular tables with 6 chairs each.

The given maps demonstrate the present layout of a college café after redesign and its previous layout. Overall, the college café will go through a number of major changes including the development of some sections like take away food, coffee bar, hot meals, and salad bar.

As seen in the maps, before redesign the café, there was a space for the staff for their dining, but, now, new two sections are installed there, such as take away food and coffee bar. In addition, serving area where all food and drink were served being replaced by opening a hot meals section. Moreover, salad bar zone is also created at the west side of the cafe. On the other hand, tables and chairs area are at the middle in the layout as same as previously it looked.

Task Response

The report appropriately addresses the task by describing the main changes between the two layouts. It covers key modifications such as the replacement of the staff dining rooms with new sections, the introduction of specific counters, and the relocation of the bin. However, there are some omissions and inaccuracies: the report mentions 'barbecue' and 'outdoor seating' as unchanged, but these are new additions in the 'today' plan, not present in the 'before' plan. Additionally, the report does not mention the removal of the staff dining rooms explicitly, nor does it describe the new outdoor area in detail. To improve, ensure that all major changes are accurately identified and that the description of unchanged features is correct. Also, avoid using future tense ('will go through') as the task refers to a completed redesign.

Coherence & Cohesion

The report has a logical structure with clear paragraphs, but there are some lapses in cohesion. The use of cohesive devices is sometimes awkward (e.g., 'As seen in the maps', 'What is more'), and the flow is disrupted by unclear referencing and abrupt transitions. The final paragraph introduces new information (barbecue, outdoor seating) without a clear link to the previous discussion. To improve, use a wider range of linking words and ensure each paragraph has a clear central idea with smooth connections between sentences.

Lexical Resource

The vocabulary is adequate for the task, with some good attempts at paraphrasing (e.g., 'demonstrate', 'installed', 'renamed'). However, there is repetition (e.g., 'sections', 'area') and some imprecise word choices (e.g., 'will go through' should be 'has gone through', 'being replaced' is awkward). To achieve a higher score, use a wider range of precise vocabulary related to maps and changes (e.g., 'relocated', 'converted', 'expanded') and avoid informal or vague terms.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

The report contains a mix of simple and complex structures, but there are several grammatical errors and awkward phrasings that affect clarity. Examples include 'before redesign the café' (missing article), 'serving area where all food and drink were served being replaced' (incorrect verb form), and 'tables and chairs area are' (subject-verb agreement). Punctuation is mostly correct, but some sentences are run-ons or lack proper connectors. To improve, focus on subject-verb agreement, correct use of articles, and ensuring verb tenses are consistent and accurate.
