The plans compare the layout of a public library in 2005 and its layout at present after redevelopment.

Overall, the construction is basically unchanged, although some rooms converted their functions. A new cafe and computer room have been added, and the fiction area is separated from the outside.

In 2005, upon going through the entrance, one could see an enquiry desk directly on the right corner. Behind it, there was a reference area with a door through the fiction room, which was on the west of the library. The room for children’s books was at the end of the building, on the right corner, aligning with the reference and the enquiry desk.

Today, the enquiry desk has been replaced by a cafe, while the fiction area was no longer connected with the outside but separated. In addition, a new computer room has been constructed at the expense of the reference area. This computer room has been flanked with the cafe in the south and the children’s area in the north.

Task Response

The report effectively addresses the task by comparing the two layouts and highlighting key changes. The overall structure is clear, with a brief introduction, an overview, and detailed paragraphs for each time period. However, there are a few minor inaccuracies and omissions. For instance, the report mentions that the fiction area is 'separated from the outside,' which is not clearly supported by the visual description. Additionally, the description of the 2005 layout could be more precise regarding the relative positions of sections. To improve, ensure that all details are accurately derived from the visual and consider using more precise language to describe spatial relationships.

Coherence & Cohesion

The report is logically organized with a clear overall statement and a comparison of the two time periods. The progression from the 2005 layout to the present layout is easy to follow. However, some transitions could be smoother, and the final sentence could be more clearly linked to the preceding description. Consider using a wider range of cohesive devices to enhance the flow.

Lexical Resource

The vocabulary is generally appropriate and accurate, with some good use of terms like 'layout', 'redevelopment', 'enquiry desk', and 'at the expense of'. However, there is room for more sophisticated and varied vocabulary. For example, instead of 'on the right corner', use 'in the southeast corner', and instead of 'at the end of the building', use 'in the northeast corner'. Also, 'flanked with' is slightly awkward; 'flanked by' would be more natural.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

The report demonstrates a good range of grammatical structures, including complex sentences and appropriate use of passive voice. There are minor errors and awkward phrasings, such as 'some rooms converted their functions' (should be 'some rooms had their functions changed') and 'was no longer connected with the outside but separated' (could be 'was no longer connected to the outside, being separated instead'). These are minor and do not impede understanding, but improving accuracy would enhance the overall quality.
