The table illustrates information about underground railway systems of different cities.

Overall, kilometers of route for Kyoto and Los Angeles were significantly lower than those other four cities. And the number of passengers per year for Tokyo and Pairs was dramatically larger than others, especially in Tokyo.

London recorded 394 kilometers of underground railway route that opened in 1863, the longest length of all cities. By contrast, these figures for Pairs and Tokyo were shorter than London, at 199 kilometers opened in 1900 and 150 kilometers opened in 1927. However, it experienced an opposite volume of passengers, Tokyo witnessed the highest number of passengers per year at 1927 million, although having the lowest of route length of these three cities. Followed by Pairs and London, passengers per year of London experienced the smallest number of passengers per year at only 775 million, compared with 1191 million for Pairs.

In terms of the remaining cities, the length of route of the underground railway systems were 126 kilometers for Washington DC, 28 Kilometers for Los Angeles started in 2001 and 11 kilometers for Kyoto started in 1981, the lowest length among all.

Task Response

The report effectively addresses the task by describing the data and making comparisons. The overall structure is clear, with an introduction, an overview, and detailed paragraphs. However, there are some inaccuracies in the data (e.g., Tokyo's route length is stated as 150 km instead of 155 km) and minor omissions (e.g., the exact year for Paris is mentioned but not for all cities consistently). The comparisons are generally relevant, but the language could be more precise and varied. To improve, ensure all data points are accurate and consider using a wider range of comparative structures.

Coherence & Cohesion

The report is generally well-organized with a clear overall structure, including an introduction, an overview, and detailed paragraphs. The use of linking words and phrases like 'By contrast', 'However', 'In comparison', and 'In terms of' helps guide the reader. However, there are minor lapses in cohesion, such as the slightly awkward transition in the second paragraph ('it experienced an opposite volume of passengers') and the phrasing 'the largest number of cities' which could be clearer. Paragraphing is logical, but the flow could be smoother in a few places.

Lexical Resource

The vocabulary used is adequate for the task, with some good attempts at variation (e.g., 'illustrates', 'significantly lower', 'dramatically larger', 'witnessed', 'standing at'). However, there are some inaccuracies and less natural choices, such as 'kilometers of route' (more natural: 'route length' or 'track length'), 'it experienced an opposite volume of passengers', and 'the largest number of cities'. The range of vocabulary is sufficient but not wide, and there is some repetition (e.g., 'passengers per year' used multiple times). To improve, aim for more precise and sophisticated lexical items. Pay attention to vocabulary repetition to improve the overall score.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

The report demonstrates a reasonable range of grammatical structures, including comparative forms and complex sentences. However, there are several errors and awkward phrasings that affect clarity. Examples include: 'those other four cities' (should be 'the other four cities'), 'Pairs' (misspelling of 'Paris'), 'the lowest length among all' (should be 'the shortest length of all'), and 'the figure for Washington DC stood the largest number of cities' (ungrammatical; should be 'was the largest among these cities'). Punctuation is generally correct, but the errors in grammar and word choice prevent the report from achieving a higher score.
