The table illustrates the daily oil output in 4 distinct nations including Nigeria, Chad, Congo and Somalia between 2000 and 2004.

Overall, it is evident that in 2004, Nigeria, Chad and Somalia generated more oil output per day than in 2000, whereas a reverse pattern can be observed in Congo. Along with that, while Congo was generally the largest oil producer among four nations, it was overtaken by Nigeria in the last year.

Regarding the dominant countries, standing at the highest number of oil barrels with 275000 in 2000, the figures for Congo then consistently fell to 203000 in 2004. Meanwhile, Nigeria began with 205000 oli barrels generated per day; however, the data on this country gradually decreased to 190000 in 2002. Consequently, such data bounced back and reached its peak of 213000 barrels per day in 2004, surpassing Nigeria’s quantity of oil generated barrels.

Moving to the remaining categories, after three years of 0 extracted oil barrels, Chad witnessed a considerable increase of 50000 in 2004, remaining the lowest oil producer throughout the period. This was followed by Somalia whose oil output per day in 2004 (50000 which was identical to Chad’s statistical information) was ten times as high as in 2000.

Task Response

The report effectively addresses the task by summarizing the main trends and making relevant comparisons. The overall structure is clear, with an introduction, an overview, and detailed paragraphs. The key features are well-selected, and comparisons between countries are appropriately highlighted. However, there is a minor inaccuracy in the final sentence where it states that Nigeria surpassed Congo in 2004, but the data shows Congo still had higher production (203,000 vs. 213,000). Additionally, the phrase 'surpassing Nigeria's quantity' is confusing. The report could be slightly more precise in describing the data, but overall it is a strong response.

Coherence & Cohesion

The report is well-structured and easy to follow. The overall trend is clearly presented in the overview, and the body paragraphs logically group the countries. However, the final sentence in the second body paragraph is slightly confusing ('surpassing Nigeria's quantity of oil generated barrels') and could be rephrased for greater clarity. Paragraphing is generally skilful, but a minor lapse in coherence occurs here.

Lexical Resource

The vocabulary is varied and appropriate for the task, with good use of terms like 'output', 'generated', 'overtaken', 'dominant', 'consistently fell', 'bounced back', and 'considerable increase'. The phrasing is mostly natural and sophisticated. However, there is a minor error ('oli barrels' instead of 'oil barrels') and the phrase 'surpassing Nigeria's quantity of oil generated barrels' is awkward. Overall, lexical control is strong.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

The report demonstrates a good range of grammatical structures, including complex sentences and appropriate use of tenses. Punctuation is generally correct. However, there are a few minor errors: 'oli' (typo), 'the data on this country gradually decreased' (slightly unnatural phrasing), and 'surpassing Nigeria's quantity of oil generated barrels' (word order issue). These are minor and do not impede understanding, but they prevent a perfect score.
