The diagram illustrates the designing of the ground floor of a particular building since 1958 to present. The using purpose has been changed over time. The draws showed that there is an inverse relationship between the purpose of using and the numbers of rooms in each plan. Therefore, the numbers of rooms gradually decrease through the years when the using purpose had changed.

The first designing (1958-1984) was an office stood with five rooms, kitchen and one toilet.

The second designing (1985-2000) was an apartment with three room, kitchen and one bathroom. In addition, we noted that the numbers of rooms gradually decreased by two rooms during the period.

The third designing (2000 – Present) was a flower shop was three rooms only, one kitchen and big opening area for selling the floor. We noted that the numbers of rooms are constant while the toilet room was canceled to increase the opening area.

In conclusion, while the kitchen room still existed during the years in the three plans and designing, the numbers of rooms gradually decrease through the period until 2001 and was constant until present , the opening area was gradually increased through the years.

Task Response

The report attempts to address the task by describing the changes across the three time periods. However, the response relies heavily on a single, speculative trend (the 'inverse relationship' between purpose and number of rooms) which is not a standard or necessary way to report on floor plans. The description of the rooms is somewhat repetitive and lacks detail regarding the layout or specific spatial changes. To improve, focus on describing the actual transformations of the space (e.g., the conversion from an office to a residential space and then to a retail space) rather than trying to find mathematical relationships between the number of rooms. Ensure that the descriptions of the rooms are accurate to the visual information provided.

Coherence & Cohesion

The organization of the report follows a chronological order, which is appropriate for this task. However, the progression of ideas is hindered by repetitive sentence structures and awkward phrasing. The use of cohesive devices is limited and sometimes used incorrectly (e.g., 'Therefore' is used to imply a mathematical relationship that isn't necessarily a logical consequence). To improve, try to use a wider variety of linking words to connect ideas between sentences and avoid starting every sentence with a similar subject-verb pattern.

Lexical Resource

The vocabulary is quite limited and often used inaccurately. For example, 'the designing' is not the correct way to refer to 'floor plans,' and 'the using purpose' is unnatural; 'the function' or 'the use of the space' would be better. There is also a repetitive use of the word 'rooms.' To improve, aim to use more precise architectural and functional vocabulary, such as 'layout,' 'repurposed,' 'converted,' 'transformed,' or 'reconfigured.'

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

There are frequent grammatical errors that impact the clarity of the report. Issues include subject-verb agreement (e.g., 'the numbers of rooms gradually decrease'), incorrect tense usage, and awkward sentence constructions (e.g., 'The third designing... was a flower shop was three rooms only'). There is also a lack of control over noun plurals and articles. To improve, focus on mastering basic sentence structures, ensuring subject-verb agreement, and practicing the use of relative clauses to combine ideas more smoothly.
