Task Response

The report addresses the task by describing some changes to the farm site, but it contains several inaccuracies and omissions. For example, it incorrectly states that the barn was introduced and relocated, while the visual description indicates the barn existed in 1950 and was replaced by holiday cottages. The report also mentions a farm shop and chickens inaccurately, and omits key features like the sports area and recreational grounds. To improve, focus on accurately selecting and comparing the main features from both time periods, and ensure comparisons are clear and supported by the visual information. The report falls short of the required 150 words.

Coherence & Cohesion

The report has a clear overall structure with an introduction and a paragraph describing changes. However, the flow of information is somewhat disjointed, and the use of cohesive devices is limited. For example, the transition between the second and third paragraphs is abrupt, and the phrase 'such as, solar panels and camping field' is awkwardly placed. To improve, use a wider range of linking words and phrases (e.g., 'in addition,' 'furthermore,' 'in contrast') and ensure each paragraph focuses on a clear set of features or comparisons. Paragraphing could be more skillfully managed to group related changes together.

Lexical Resource

The vocabulary used is basic and repetitive, with limited range and flexibility. Words like 'changed,' 'replaced,' and 'introduced' are used multiple times without variation. There is also some imprecise phrasing, such as 'parking were added among the main road' and 'Farmhouse and chickens maintained its origin position.' To improve, incorporate more precise and varied vocabulary (e.g., 'relocated,' 'converted,' 'retained,' 'established') and use appropriate collocations (e.g., 'parking facilities were provided along the main road'). Avoid informal or unclear expressions.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

The report contains several grammatical errors and lacks variety in sentence structures. Examples include subject-verb agreement errors ('parking were added,' 'vegetables area were remained'), incorrect use of articles ('the Barn was introduced'), and tense inconsistencies. Punctuation is also problematic, such as the comma after 'such as.' To improve, practice using a mix of simple, compound, and complex sentences accurately. Pay attention to subject-verb agreement, correct use of articles, and consistent past tense for describing historical changes. Proofreading for punctuation errors is also recommended.
